释义与例句

n.
  1. 1.

    A Japanese visual novel genre characterized by tragic plots and pervasively bleak tones.

    The related genre “utsuge” (“depressing game”), unlike “nakige”, does not typically achieve a happy ending.

    Nitroplus, the company behind Saya no uta, specializes in utsuge containing body horror, gore, rape, and depression—in short, as scholar Clarisse Thorn puts it, games that are “not ‘fun’ in the way most people think about ‘fun,’ that’s for sure.”

词源

Borrowed from Japanese 鬱ゲー (utsuge, “depressing game”), a combination of 鬱 (utsu, “melancholy, gloom”) and ゲー (gē), a shortening of ゲーム (gēmu, “game”), itself from English game.
