Y'know--

I don't think The Missing: JJ Macfield and the Island of Memories gets enough credit for how much it goes out of its way to depict how valid trans identities are regardless of presentation

During the game proper you are playing as a dream idealized version of JJ who took some of her traits from Emily (note their eyes are the same color) and has a feminine voice provided by a cis woman VA

And in the NG+ you can play as JJ as she is in reality with her developmental voice (voiced by a cis male VA albeit softly spoken) and with her short hair. You can chose to switch out JJ's wig, outfits and which version of her voice you use and some of the photos on JJ's phone will display how she is in reality

And the thing is for 100%ing the game your reward is to see post-game Emily and JJ go clothes shopping and find the outfit she wears in the dream

But like-- the game makes sure the player understands that voice, clothing and wig do not change JJ

She's the same woman in any depiction and that is such an empathetic way of telegraphing to the audience that trans women are women and they do not owe the world or themselves passing in any form to be recognized as such

For a Japanese video game that's pretty dang amazing and there's a big reason that despite some flaws (the handling of topics of suicide and conversion therapy are not great) it is one of our favorite bits of trans media

Helped get us to finally come out

This Saturday at 6 PM CST:

The first time I played through Deadly Premonition, it was the most I'd enjoyed a game since I was a little kid. I didn't think that was still possible, and I wanted to share it with everyone. It ended up being one of the first games I ever streamed, before Twitch was even a thing, and is probably part of the reason I'm where I am today.

But things change. I've changed, the world's changed, and a lot of stuff surrounding the game has changed. It's been a decade or more since I touched the game, and I think it's time I finally went back. What new things will I notice for the first time? How much will I still enjoy it? Will I enjoy it at all? Either way, I still want to share it with everyone.

This Saturday, please join me as I start a playthrough over a year in the making, beginning with a special presentation about Deadly Premonition, my history with the game, and why this stream has taken so long to prepare for.

Catch it all on twitch.tv/kerbumble

Swery 65 is on this earth to remind us that a work being derivative does not mean it is inherently bad or wihtout value.

Oh, you know that the second I saw Horlock and Naomi on @clownveira's Secret Santa prompt, both Naomi and I got ideas for the perfect shot!

Just got The Good Life for Steam. I forgot how much I enjoyed just running into the English countryside and completely ignoring the fact that I'm broke and being exploited by my employer(?)
