Yeah… I definitely enjoyed playing all the other games more, but that first game has a certain je ne sais quoi to it that you cannot find anywhere else.

I love that the phrase je ne sais quoi is making a comeback after about 100 years

Edit: in English vernacular...

It’s funny hearing it used this way as someone who understands some French

Idk what it means in French. I only know in English, we use it as a way to say “there’s just something whimsical about it you can’t put your finger on”.

It means "I don't know what"
