#I want to play it so bad guys

[thefandomenchantress]

I have made a brief return to say that while I am loving what I’ve seen of chapter one so far, before I was going to watch the trial I had a realization.

I have my own personal computer. I can literally just play through the trial myself if I want to, I don’t have to watch someone else do it for me. And that sounded fun, so I tried it!

After downloading the Chapter 1 release, I played through most of the Prologue with little issue, other than the game crashing on me a few times. Unfortunately, once I made it to the Prologue’s trial, things got way rougher.

Trial booted up, but my keyboard commands to fire and change the truth bullets didn’t appear to be working. After failing to figure out what I was doing wrong, I decided to close the game and try again the next day.

But the next day, the trial wouldn’t even start up, no matter what I did. I’ve been trying for a while now, but nothing seems to be working. After looking online, others have had issues with the keyboard controls and some can’t get the trial to start. After looking at some of the ways they fixed their problems, I decided to try using a game controller for the trial and see if that works, but literal hours of trying again and again to find a way to get the trial to work in the first place have failed. I’m starting to think that waiting for a low-spec version of the game, which seems to be in development, may be my only way to proceed. My computer is pretty new without many files, so I don’t see why it’s having trouble running the trial when I followed the download instructions correctly, (I checked many times) but oh well.

My point is, I may be gone longer than I thought, until I can find a way to play the game properly (…Or until I get frustrated enough to just watch the trial walkthrough on YouTube, though I hope it doesn’t come to that).

Ships are made 200x better when the actors/ voice actors/ writers/ artists ship them. Like it becomes so imbedded in the characters even if they try not to let it I love is

Man, it's cool and all if you see a metaphor for marginalisation in the monstrous, and if you want the power fantasy of 'what if you could just eat anybody who threatened you/pissed you off'. Me too.

However, as soon as you start saying 'no, these monsters are a 1:1 on Specific Marginalised Group, and you have to treat them in the fiction like they are directly representative of real human members of the marginalised group', BUT you also, in the fiction, make them hurt/kill/eat humans? And then try to shame me, your audience, for noticing or engaging with the bit where they kill people, because you made them directly representative of a real-world marginalised group? You have lost me, and also, I think, the plot.

I think a big misunderstanding is the power people give Curly to actually change things about the way the pony express operates or could’ve done things on the Tulpar.

We are talking about a company that docks pay for bad synergy despite mandated psych evals that should tell which staff members would work well together, only allots for 5 hours of sleep despite having literally no other tasks to truly do and locks all resources behind the access of one person. The last one is likely to manage resources and make it easier to justify collective punishment and blaming one person for it; someone needs something in “excess” or the captain gives in? It’s all on them your pay is docked. Instant resentment.

It’s insidious how the company works, it’s by design to distract you from coming after them, to force tensions to line their own pockets. With all the restrictions and forced interactions, altercations are bound to happen. 5 hours of sleep a day, limited sources of entertainment, no real tasks… the monotony alone would cause bad cabin fever, mix that with just only one absolute mediator and you get the exact environment that allows shit like in the game to happen.

The idea he could just complain and try to throw his weight around to get them to dig into their pocket for the crews comfort is laughable and misses the predatory and dehumanizing aspect of capitalism the Pony Express represents. Curly was and is still just another asset to them. Being a top show pony doesn’t mean he’s anywhere close to the actual top. He is the top of the working ladder, not whoever’s in corporate, he wouldn’t even be on the bottom step unlike what Jimmy perceives. The resounding recommendations he would get are almost mocking as they throw him out like nothing just like the rest. Being a shitty fucking company, how much do you bet they’d mean anything anyways, especially since he wanted to leave the field all together.

He made a fuss and they didn’t listen, he says he should’ve done more but you can tell he knows it wouldn’t have changed anything. Jobs like this are willing to make a sacrifice if it means even a penny more. Curly makes a bigger fuss they likely would’ve just found an “unrelated” reason to fire him, hired a more pliable guy or, terrifyingly, promoted Jimmy. The company was failing, going to shut down whether anything happened on the ship or not. But knowing that they were shutting down and that everyone, including him, would be out of a job with this being their last paycheck, he had to factor in not destroying the last bit of their financial stabilities combined with every other issue on the vessel and his own. He gets another cryopod or locks and then he has to break to them that they are not only fired but there will be substantial cuts to their paychecks due to the “upgrades” (things that already should’ve been in place on their part) on top of anything else that could be docked along the way.

You can blame him for saying it so early into the trip but then again, if he mentioned it later who’s to say it wouldn’t have been worse? On the capitalism side alone how would people in a galaxy away from home, out of a job and already stir crazy react? Don’t get me started on how Jimmy would have reacted if he realized he only had two days left to fix what would be a very hard to miss “problem” in his head…

I can’t even consider explaining this as devils advocate because it’s just facts of the world we and they live in and factors that heavily affected the situation. People are just so quick to make claims on the ease of the choices when P.E literally makes it hard to choose to do anything but suck it up.

WORDGIRL FOR THE SUPER NINTENDO COVER (game doesn’t exist, just a fan made cover)

If Wordgirl came out in the early to mid 90s then it would’ve probably had a video game for the Super Nintendo!

I LOVE the scene of Fig giving Riz a “thinking of you” card to Riz, giving the credit to Gorgug and THEN Gorgug giving Riz such a personal and heartfelt gift and tried to figure out what it was that Riz was talking about

DAY 4: DRAMA - Put on your prettiest face for the masses!

gonna start adding silly captions actually. [POINTS ACCUSINGLY] MELTY FUCK (AFFECTIONATE)!!

[tokenducks]

Honestly at this point I’m excited for whoever wins:

I’m thrilled to place my bet on gem or Joel (I think they’d desert duo cactus ring style duel as the final two and my heart-)

I dream of Lizzie managing to win one of these things

Nothing would be funnier than Jimmy or Skizz winning. Can you imagine?

Cleo winning the April fools one and this would be peak

Tango redemption from how bad he’s been most of the whole thing this season would be great

Impulse has been so close so many times. My man is working for it

Bdubs is so silly every time I see him he’s on a horse or building his tower. I want him to win so badly.

Big B is such a weirdo in every season I think it’d be great if he won.

Etho could prove he’s not washed
