#I play video games

[anakinh]

finished sea of stars. spoilers ahead.

overall i really liked it! but honestly? thought it was kinda mid until the clockwork castle. It got really good when you entered the sea of stars, but I've always loved sci-fi more than fantasy (and sci-fi fantasy mixes more than either of the two), so that's not surprising. didn't much care for the golden ending either. I think it's because i didn't love garl? which is surprising, usually I like good good boys.

tbh i think that's because they really mythologized garl. like, he's a 100% great dude, would love to be friends with him in real life, sounds like a wonderful guy. but as a character? he has some trauma but he's well adjusted? he's not snarky or bitchy? he's not even dumb?? but all my favourite good good boys fall under at least one of those categories!

anyway i loved resh'an, serai, and erlina. not surprising. especially resh'an's immortal all-powerful being love affair with a dude destroying entire worlds. i was a doctor who fan.

edit: one other thing to add. Sea of Stars is gorgeous. it's amazingly beautiful. play it for the art alone. hell, play it for the attention to detail in the art - the way it shifts when you move worlds is so great.

I hate that I can only store the prawn suit or sea moth in my moon pool so I think I’m building another moon pool right next to it today

This is my twitch channel.

I have been dying to get some art to use as my PFP, and maybe someone to redesign my logos and things better but I honestly can't afford it.

I get a dozen massages a day from artists wanting me to give them like $100+ for packs that have the pfp, banners, dividers, layout goodies for stream and emojis and I feel terrible every time I have to tell them no because I sold my own digital art for years and I know that hustle is a bitch sometimes.

But anyways.... If you want to come give me a follow, maybe one day I can get some cooler art. ☠️😂

I think game studios should just release their character creators online. For the times when I don’t wanna play the whole game, just the lil dress up part

Just finished an almost all missions playthrough of FFVII Remake.

Thoughts on it under the cut. I’m not kind about this game. Clearly going to spoil the game.

1. Barret and Tifa coparenting Marlene made my heart leap with joy. I think they could make a good couple.

2. I didn’t like Aerith at all. Her personality didn’t vibe with me. I don’t like bubbly + cagey characters so not a surprise,.

3. I loved Barret, I loved his visual design and showing how he moves without the use of one hand was amazing. There were definitely points at the game I stared dead at my screen wondering why the character who resorted to violence the most happens to be the only black protag. I get this is his personality in the first game, but I am nervous.

4. I didn’t like Cloud. Which… made the start of the game rough as hell.

5. I was, and still am, torn on the whole eco terrorism plot point, Barret’s motivations being laid out is genuine, and Shinra is just an evil corporation that doesn’t care what they’re doing to the planet, but I do think there’s a validity in no one there thinking what happens after you turn the power off everywhere, including the slums. I feel like this was just a shallow follow the motions plot narrative. Especially when Barret is confronted with his worldview and then boom death.

6. I can’t complain about the normal FF story and puzzles pacing being to par for the series. But my hands hurt from playing mouse and keyboard. I am so glad I never have to do a motorcycle scene again.

7. I feel like this game is definitely made to pair with, not played aside from the original. Maybe I’d like it more if I actually could get through the original game.

8. I feel like Sephiroth’s buildup was bad, and while I’m interested in his character bc I’m easy like that, I just don’t feel like a lot was established in game to support the narrative they went for.

9. There was enough Cloud and Sephiroth scenes I can safely say I felt like they had a more natural relationship progression than Aerith and Cloud.

10. I loved the trio of bosses at the end being Barret, Tifa and Cloud, but ow they kicked my ass though. Cool bosses, cool concept, ran longer than I’d like.

11. Aside from the motorcycle portion, that was the most back to back to back bosses I’ve had in a while.

12. I was not satisfied with the ending. I was not satisfied with Sephiroth’s boss fight. I came out of the game dissatisfied by everything.

13. I think Shinra’s involvement being so high, made the resolution with it so bad.

14. I kind of wish I could have had all the characters for combat. Maybe it’s a nod to FFVII but like, I think if I’m running around with all four maybe I have all four in my active party. Perhaps.

15. Items kind of sucked ngl. Materia also kind of sucked. I ended up swapping to easy because I legitimately didn’t think the weapons, bangles and additional items would have assisted anything.

16. My hands legitimately hurt from needing to hold run everywhere.

17. The controls for the dance section is fucking weird why did they do that. There ended up being so much to try and part attention to it fucked me up. I play rhythm games this shouldn’t have been so difficult to sight read and understand.

18. I loved seeing Cloud in a dress.

19. I cane out of that understanding very little about the plot, and it felt like there’s so many holes in it, that I genuinely don’t know if I want to play the sequel.

Overall, I still stand by not liking FFVII really, and hold a far bigger interest in almost any other game. I wouldn’t say the game has shit design inherently, but I think not having played/liked the first definitely made me more critical of the remake.

I’m going to play the side story and prequel soon, and maybe playing the sequel will help.

Maybe. But I have to wait to play the sequel because I neither have a PS5 nor the funds to buy the game atm.

tonight is just one of those nights where i yearn. i wanna be going home to somebody. i want there to be a reason for me to come back after work. for it not to be my whole life. but the only personal connections i have are digital or through my job. so why bother. why not work late. why not spend my whole life my whole time being at work and doing nothing. it's the only place i get any sort of feedback, positive, negative. it's where im a person and not a hermit.

twitter rly think butch means "looks like a trucker but has tits" like "tank top, short hair, cargo shorts, and muscles"

like do they know butches can be formal? that butches can be scrawny? or that maybe butches can be nerdy?? AND MAYBE BUTCHES CAN HAVE LONG HAIR?!??!!

like not all butches are macho grease monkeys some butches are dorky academics, some are gamers, some are just guys that dont define their style by their hobbies

i know that chilchuck saying there's not much interesting for him to say about his daughters and then saying, like, two sentences about each is Very In Character but what would have been funnier is if he was like. hm. it's not very interesting. and then smash cutting to, like, five hours later and he's still going on about them (marcille listens attentively with sparkly eyes. we've done it. we've found how to make him talk)
