#Incredible themes

My oh my, War and Peace has so many fantastic themes besides the romantic elements (which, imho, don't play the major part).
It's about hope, belief, empathy, how easily you can be corrupted when you are around the wrong kind of people, morals, peace of course and its absence, forgiveness, pride, family...
The romance seems like a side quest tbh 😂

Soul Sanctum! Soul Twisters are the bane of my existence, right behind Primal Aspids and those flying assholes in Crystal Peak.
Most of HK’s most annoying enemies are the flying ones, because they’re good at getting out of the way of your shit by teleporting or flying backwards, and or they have subtle telegraphs for their attacks, while those same attacks blend in fantastically with the background (I can not even begin to describe my visceral hatred for the flying crystal shits).
Masterpost
#hollow knight#hk greenpath vessel#hk ghost#hk soul master#art#my art#comic#soul sanctum has super cool music#like I can feel the madness of the bugs there just from soul master’s theme alone#the normal area music is so sad sounding too#it’s filled with agony#and it gets worse when you have to listen to the sounds enemies like mistakes make#it’s guttural and desperate and confused#it’s incredible for such a tiny corner of the game

you always land on all fours
#umineko#umineko spoilers#ikuko hachijo#ikukos turn for a more serious piece... the old man has reigned for too long#now. INCREDIBLY LONG INCOHERENT TAGS RANT INCOMING FAIR WARNING HAS BEEN GIVEN:#it makes me so so sad how little discussion there is about specifically ikuko because imho she fits so neatly into a lot of the more#overarching Big Themes of the game in a way that i have not ever really seen people take notice of or point out in a meaningful way#like even just off of the top of my head. the significance of names and what it means to go by a name that's Not Yours (she has like 4+)#what it Means to be a witch how it represents a person's deepest insecurities and flaws & how its at its core a coping mechanism#the fact that it takes two to create a universe and trying to do it on your own anyways has the capacity to bring you intense misery#^ (how she's shown to be extremely dismissive of her own work and skill until a collaborator comes into her life and helps/encourages her)#and even the family/patriarchy/misogyny stuff that is so prevalent in the rest of the game comes back around to her. even her Only Friend#(young&stupid atp to be fair) remarks that shes Weird for being unmarried + the little she does say about her past invites the question of#to what extent her self-image stems from her family deeming her a freak outcast & effectively disowning her while celebrating her brothers#and i have lot in my mind about the witch thing specifically because i think her particular situation is very reflective of what umineko's#entire magic system and fantasy facet as a whole is meant to represent for an individual. from what little we see of (what is presumably)#her Real personality she is shown to be deeply self conscious in a way that is JARRINGLY diametrically opposed to both 1.) what we see in#featherine and 2.) what we see when she is acting as a Public Figure. because both of the above are very much purposeful acts that she is#putting on in order to obfuscate her true self. and i have always been very resolute & adamant about not totally equating her to featherine#not only because im very firmly in the camp of “featherine is the avatar of the Pen Name & tohya is part of her too” but also very much b/c#i feel very strongly that the stark differences between the two are very centrally relevant to her character & her psyche. as is the case#with most other witches featherine's personality traits serve to reveal/magnify a lot of ikukos inner workings by playing on her#insecurities/reversing them e.g. ikuko being very quick to downplay her skill/achievements becomes featherine being the COMPLETE opposite#to the point where she barely registers even other witches as living beings rather than just fun touys. BUT even though i do champion the#ikuko/featherine separation so hard i ALSO think it is purposefully relevant that at first glance the line between them seems so blurry#her introduction implying a more nebulous separation between her reality/fantasy counterpart is i think is an intentional move on her part#like it is part of the front she is putting up when acting as the Author. as opposed to Ikuko the person who we (in a way ironically very#similar to the way that the Real Battler is presumably only shown during the boatscene) only very briefly get to see take up screentime#which even on a meta level lines up very well with her apparent underlying nature as a like. extremely private largely reserved/shy person#hit tag limit but if by some miracle anyone is still reading this thank you... please see ikuko with the love she deserves... ok ily byeee

Do you ever go insane thinking about how every member of Laios' party is extremely atypical for their species, but a lack of exposure and understanding smoothes out these differences and makes everyone think they're the "typical" representation.
Senshi is terrible with other dwarves since he has no practical interest in mining or weapons craft. We cannot know this until Namari and later, Senshi's backstory are introduced. When we see him interact with dwarves, it's awkward and clear there's a fundamental disconnect.
Chilchuck is incredibly tall for a half foot and as such has to manage his weight more than other half foot dungeoneers so he doesnt set off traps. The first detail takes the changlings to properly understand, the second is referenced in text but is fully explained in additional materials. It is plot relevant that people who don't have the exposure to half foots might not even realize they're their own species.
Marcille as a half elf is kind of obvious to many of the elves who encounter her and they're deeply cruel and assume she's driven by a desire to be able to have children but the party never notices and Senshi especially thinks of her as a typical elf even though in truth she's so outcast she could never dine with her mother at the queens table.
Laios and Falin are a bit more complicated, since we as the audience do have context for most of tallman culture, since it mirrors our own mostly, but both of them have magical aptitude that both people like Marcille, who has a lot of access to mana and people like Chilchuck, who has very little and no magical training, fail to understand how isolating it is to have that much potential and aptitude.
Arguably Toshiro and Namari fall into this as well. Toshiro looks like the embodiment of the silent but noble warrior, but his own party and extra material confirm that he's abnormally shy and introverted, something that makes it hard for him even in his own family. Meanwhile Namari is able to stand on her own as a weapons expert and "typical" dwarf, but total dwarves who are total strangers like Dya know who she is and resent her.
Arguably a lot of dungeon meshi is about peeling back layers and assumptions not working out, but it's so great that every member of the core party gets interpreted by others (and maybe the reader) as "typical", especially with the skills line up, as a human fighter, halfling rogue, and an elven mage are so basic a stereotype. But none of are able to achieve that standard. These assumptions and misunderstandings only thrive because each party member is so inexperienced with both the biology and culture of the others. The only way they gain context is either interacting with a wider pool of people or experiencing it for themself. Everything in this story is so layered and I love it.
#i feel a little silly for typing this all up. maybe ill delete it later#anyway all of the party seems like the stereotype but actually all of them are isolated from their own people. chewing glass#i realize this is an incredibly basic theme of the story but. i find it neat.#dungeon meshi spoilers#dungeon meshi manga spoilers#dungeon meshi#laios touden#marcille donato#chilchuck tims#senshi of izganda

the web - fear of manipulation and lost control made manifest
#twst#twisted wonderland#jamil viper#kalim al asim#twst tma au#tma#heartscribbles#dont tag as ship#honestly this piece stands alone w/o the tma au tag but i just want it there for context#but for the very niche audience of tma twst people im sure you all understand me when i say jamil is SOOOOO webcoded#i have a lot of thoughts on a twst tma au that will probably come out later#most of them center around web!jamil tbh#there is something incredibly funny about aligning (guy with horrid fear of all bugs ever) with (spider themed fear god)#i will keep doing it

hold the fuck on. i just realized that the die on daniils desk...
...its loaded. the opposite faces of a six-sided die should always add up to 7, so the 5 face and the 2 face should not be visible at the same time. this seems intentional to me with how odd it is to have a die on his desk in the first place, and how thematically fitting it is for him to play with an unfair die
#i hope i worded this well but GOD THE ATTENTION TO DETAIL IN THESE GAMES IS INCREDIBLE.#it could be a simple mistake but thinking about how in p2 the tragedians play with dice outside of laras shelter#and the general themes of playing unfair games......seems very fitting#or could be a sign of his grip on reality failing along with the september calendar thing when he says its october#who knows#just a detail i noticed#pathologic 3#pathologic 3 spoilers#pathologic 3 quarantine#what on earth are you yapping about?

just finished reading stagtown in a Day so now I’m legally required to tell everyone (especially cinderella boy fans) to read stagtown. I have memes as an offering
cmon, do it for the polycule, their daughter, and their cat
in my mind frankie and nox are siblings who hate each other so bad
for just a small payment of Free you can also fall in love with frankie parker
#pleaseeeee read stagtown :3#I’m a huge wimpy baby who can’t handle horror well but I loved it so much#the themes of trust and guilt and blame are incredibly done (and like so is the art but knowing punko that’s a given)#the main three’s dynamic (either platonic romantic or a secret third thing) means so much to me actually#stagtown#cinderella boy#cinderella boy webtoon

I hate to say it but I might have to admit that Redditors can be pretty based sometimes

#dead by daylight#dbd#dbd unknown#dbd the unknown#pls pls pls you can trust me to be normal about that i am completely normal about that i am so normal about these themes#and their direct opposite i am normal and can be trusted with anything that's either like Th//e La//st Uni//corn or its direct opposite#like no. no i have to remember that bhvr have no idea what they're doing. i must not get sucked in. i must remember better games... unless#like no you have no idea what id give for this to be intended like aaaaugh i am unimaginably insane about the inhuman desperately#trying to be human in any way it can and the world continually rejecting those efforts#just like i am incredibly abnormal about humanity as a horror for the inhuman and the active rejection of humanity by something#that is; despite its best efforts and thw verdict of its biology; human. haha humanity as a horror you are forced to be and#perhaps always were but never had the chance to realise it. anyway. i digressed.#also the actual reason why Oh Gross (aka The Unknown) looks like that is because the lore states that some people thought#it was just a typical serial killer and gross is just a cumulation of everything everyone has ever thought about it#(god thats depressing)#so yeah. sorry no themes of humanity here i think. though id kill for them.
