#and it’s a huge disappointment to see

baldur’s gate 3 did not even remotely deserve to win game of the year that shit isn’t even properly finished, especially considering some of the games it went up against. they only added the epilogue in major patch fucking 5 and act 3 is STILL barebones as shit. and THIS beat tears of the kingdom AND spider-man 2????? nah i’m pissed about this, i’m fully convinced they ignored actual game quality in favour of what was hyped on social media close to award season
okay after thinking past the initial anger i’m adding this on the end just to make a more coherent point. goty is “given to a video game judged to deliver the best experience across creative and technical fields” (goty wikipedia page introduction). i fully believe that bg3, with its plethora of bugs, technical issues, and other mechanical problems that very much have been game-breaking for some people (and even when it isn’t, still wildly frustrating), very much does not deliver “the best experience across technical fields” by a long shot. i will say the creativity part is down to personal taste and therefore i would find this win a lot more acceptable if goty didn’t make any comment on mechanical functioning of the game, but the thing is it DOES. so because of this i am now sulking
#and i LIKE this game#okay it’s more of a love-hate relationship at this point but still there is definitely love there#and i want to see it be better#i WISH it was a game that i felt deserved to win goty i really do#but it just doesn’t feel fair. it feels like social media hype favouritism#and it’s a huge disappointment to see#i’m not saying they deserved no awards btw. just not goty#not maintagging this#it’ll probably show up in search results anyway but i don’t want to actively invite the fandom to yell at me#i will tag it as critical tho#bg3 critical#magnus posts

*if your gender and sexuality brought on different feelings, vote for whichever you want. (whichever feeling was stronger, or first, or however you want to decide).
If you’re comfortable with it, put your sexuality and/or gender identity in the tags along with the feeling you experienced upon discovering it so we can see if any trends appear with correlations between certain identities and feelings!
#i’ll go first for me it was a huge relief when i realized i was asexual#the nonbinary thing was a relief too but mixed with more anxiety#i tried to do an even spread of positive and negative emotions#but i sincerely hope none of you felt disappointed :(#queer#polls#queer polls#lgbtqia+ polls#self discovery#asexual#nonbinary#aromantic#aroace#lesbian#gay#bisexual#pansexual#demisexual#graysexual#transgender#intersex#polyamorous#polysexual#sorry if i missed any identities in the tags im just one guy#i’ll tag more as i see them show up in your answers#hall of fame

we nerded out about it together for like fifteen minutes afterwards and gosh i want to be their friend so bad. i didn't realize they could become even cooler but here we are
#i think i have a chance at their friendship too... i gotta take this seriously#star trek#i love you star trek#thank you for giving me something in common with this incredible person#and they're a huge geordi fan and seeing as i'm a huge data fan...? friendship is just inevitible. it's gotta happen#if i dont work up the courage to talk to them more by the time this class is over im gonna be so disappointed in myself

Unfriendly, very pointed reminder that people are allowed to mourn the total lack of Agathario backstory in the final episodes.
The people upset about it aren’t idiots- I’m very aware the work that must’ve gone into convincing Marvel to let Agatha have a canon, explicit, visible female love interest.
Seeing this woman-led, blatantly queer show exist where the main characters are queer and that’s simply accepted without conversation? It’s made me cry- genuinely- because it something that didn’t need to happen for the story to make sense, but still did.
Agatha being a canon LESBIAN is giant for us too- it’s always easier to convince networks to give us sapphic characters if it’s reasonable they’ll end up with men. There was never a chance in hell Agatha would- now for two reasons.
This is an undeniably huge win, and I adore this show for that (along with many, many other reasons).
But I’m also disappointed that we never got to see the positive half of the history that was clearly so integral to how Agatha and Rio interacted with each other. They had something much less complex once and I’m frustrated they basically told us this and then gave nothing.
People are allowed to criticize a show they love, whether it’s “valid” or not- and they’re allowed to feel disappointment while also acknowledging that all of this was an incredibly huge step.
#agatha all along#agathario#agatha harkness#agatha x rio#rio vidal#agatha spoilers#aaa#the disappointment is both narratively and very *very* personally#and that’s also okay!#people are allowed to be upset#it might be silly but media is extremely powerful#I’m not even a huge marvel person but this show#does genuinely mean a lot#I don’t get to see myself represented very often#to see it in such a unique and refreshing way? it’s important#and#I wish I could’ve gotten more#harassing Jac and/or Kathryn and Aubrey is obviously not what I mean either so don’t test me

i'm gonna log off for a while because i'm really mentally drained from constantly hearing how unhappy and disappointed some of you guys were with both SB and CH'snendings and developments.
i know some of you guys come from a good place and mean no harm but imagine working on something for so long and then you yourself are already sad about how things ended but you wanna use it as a way to do better next time but people constantly tell you how you should do better next time and its always "i was so excited but it never came" and "i wished things would have gone this way" after you spent days crying out of frustration because your brain didn't corporate.
people who have never written (one shots or series doesnt matter) don't know the burden of leaving unfinished works up there. i keep telling you guys that i tried so hard to somehow give you guys an ending because if i hadn't you guys would have never received ANY ending so i tried to make the best of it.
i dont take the hate to heart anymore bc i couldnt care less and i know as a writer i should be open to criticism but i'm a little tired of my work being constantly nitpicked when i do this for fun.
i know updating daily was what burnt me out pls stop telling me that i obviously overestimated myself i fucking know.
whatever, it actually doesn't matter anymore because CH is over and i dont think i'll ever write smaus that long ever again bc the criticism is so not worth the mental effort and stress.
i do this for FUN. you know how artists doodle in their notebooks, this is what this blog is to me. i make mistakes, i over/underestimate things and myself bc this is life. it's just..not that deep for y'all to constantly camp in my inbox and make me feel bad about it when i already accepted it.
i'm gonna do some self reflection and think about it all so take care babies 🤍
#; rambles#i've literally been receiving huge paragraphs about just how excited people were about certain things in both CH and SB and several people#have told me how i should have just stopped daily updating and listening to y'all and taking breaks and not burn myself out bc now they're#disappointed and it sounds a LOT like my parents when they realised im just another burnt out former gifted child so#i'll see you guys around 🤍

tad bit upset because from what i’ve seen, simon and roger don’t look like poc in the graphic novel. most of the scenes where they are shown, they have dark lighting and they look white in shadows so if they’re not poc that’s actually really disappointing for me because that would be like the millionth time that anyone in charge of a lotf adaptation refuses to acknowledge this
#lotf#lord of the flies#i am PRAYING that they’re poc#because if not then the graphic novel isn’t even worth it to me#why hire an artist to depict a book if you depict it wrong#btw this is NOT the artists fault and the artist is not to blame for this#it would just be a huge disappointment to me because they’re very clearly stated to be poc#IN ALSO LIVID ABOUT SAMNERIC#THEY HAVE EXTREMELT BLONDE HAIR CANONICALLY#AND THEY MADE THEM BRUNETTE WHICH ISNT THAT DEEP#BUT THEYRE MY FAVOURITES AND I LOVE THEM SO TO SEE THEM BE SHOWN INCORRECTLY IS MAKING MY SKIN C R A W L#atp hire @ralphingly to do the graphic novel

HELPP i found out about character AIs and im losing it over calling deltarune sans "a more manipulative personality" 😭😭 like whatt we've only seen this man like 2 times
sorry im being a hater hgfjdks but you're the sans understander
lmaoo character.ai, look where the fall of ai dungeon got us, smh. thank you for the compliment though!
#i think those ai chaeracter rps are goofy as hell#i've played around with them a few times to see what it was all about. they play up the personalization too much it's not THAT customizable#i tried feeding it some sans lines back when i was doing the rp to see if the machine was capable of identifying his speaking style#since i'd essentially done the same thing just manually. i wanted to see how good it could get it#huge disappointment as predicted#i WILL give character.ai one thing though. hilariously not for its characters. there's this one tool called brainstorming that's super hand#you throw ideas/concepts at it & it throws back clarifying questions based on what you sent in. like playing tennis against a wall#essentially a dynamic version of those writing tip lists like what's the significance of this event for x. what conflict arises etc#optimally this is stuff you do with a friend. and truly nothing beats brainstorming with another writer. honest.#but if you're fully throwing spaghetti at the wall in the roughest stages of an idea it's a quick way to cycle through some basic what-ifs#pretty fun toy all things considered. but it stops being useful the moment things start shaping up forreal#answered asks

"The Andes are huge. They'd have to organize the search in some way - like in zones. They were here yesterday. We saw them fly overhead. Today we heard them but didn't see them. I bet they're searching a different area." "That means they didn't see us." - La Sociedad de la Nieve/Society of the Snow (2023)
#la sociedad de la nieve#society of the snow#marcelo perez#fito strauch#numa turcatti#someone said to me they were disappointed that marcelo was sidelined in the movie#i didn't feel that way at all because i think the importance of his leadership was shown through him being the moral core of the group#so you're seeing a bunch of gifsets with him because i want to show how he really was hugely important#i just... have feelings. on a lot of things

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep - Radiant Garden
#kingdom hearts birth by sleep#khbbs#radiant garden#scenery#my gif#if only i could mod the game just to be able to roam freely with the camera because this world is so vast and beautiful#so many of these rooms are huge and i really wish i could zoom out and view them from a distance to just get a full sense of scope#also imagine my disappointment when we got to see this world remade in kh3 cutscenes but weren't given the opportunity to explore it

i dont want to be a debbie downer but i finally checked out the trailers for the new pack since im thinking about trying out some new gameplay and... am i losing my mind or do parts of the city look like recycled san myshuno ?? :(
#tbh when i watch the trailers now i cant believe how bad i think the style is#it hurts my eyes#i honestly think the game looks awful and so outdated atp#and one reason i stopped having fun was that it started feeling like a huge obstacle to hate the look of everything in the environment#not smth i could tweak but smth that needed to be completely overhauled through cc and editing :/#does that make sense to anyone else#& lukewarm take but there's just no charm left in the franchise & it's disappointing to see :(#lush.talk

Have you seen the demicolon?
yeah, i mean i've heard of it but like. idk i am surprisingly neutral on the concept? i mean it's a fun idea but also it's not really viable in a writing context (formatting-wise at least) so it just. eh.
(demicolon thing for context)
#not counting#ask tag#sorry to be disappointing#like i guess i see the idea but i can't actually implement it in normal text papers and this irritates me enough it just evens out#on a side note while i was trying to find this image i almost made a reddit account to argue with someone's five year old comment#it's FINE#but like also. they were just so confidently calling things that were either preexisting wingdings or like. de bazin ''fanfiction''#and their elaboration was linking to the wiki page for fanfic?? huge eyeroll#anyways. five year old reddit comments aside. i am absolutely neutral on the demicolon#sorry but i can't help it#also i really do hope that made sense as an answer

its funny, in a kinda sad way, that the mcu has been starting to introduce the main characters of the young avengers one by one Now (like i was Obsessed with the young avengers comics when i was in high school, talked fancasts with my friends and shit), bc i haven't cared that strongly for the mcu for almost 10 years now (around phase 3 is where they started to lose me) :/ like i couldn't be paid to watch these new things bc i simply can't get invested enough to watch these latest movies and tv shows. but if this had been a decade prior, my blog would've morphed into a primarily mcu-verse young avengers fanblog the moment i caught a glimpse of kate bishop, wiccan, hell. even cassie lang lol
16 yr old me would think i was a disgrace, but 16 yr old me was enduring the worst year of her life 10 years ago, so i'll let her have this one
#my feelings about america chavez's casting is. idk it's complex but ultimately disappointed but that's probably bc she was my fav#in a similar vein- i was a Huge loki stan back in 2013. i rewatched thor idk how many times and that '13 comic con moment went crazy#and then the loki show (a whole show about loki) dropped 10 yrs after the first thor movie and i just. didn't care#i learned kid loki was in it even lol! but i was all loki'd out ig#mcu#rambles#young avengers#it's still cool seeing my boy billy kaplan in any audiovisual capacity i'm ngl. happy for him either way!

idk man i kinda feel like if you think reading my fic was a waste of your time, maybe you could save yourself some of that time by just hitting the back button instead of writing a comment to complain about it?
#i'm sorry that my fic didn't have enough romance for you and usually i understand people who feel that way#but if romance/sex was all you wanted to read about i feel like... maybe you should have hit the back button sooner?#like this. this clearly isn't as much a shipping fic as most others in the fandom and i feel like that's obvious from early on.#being a little disappointed because there was less than you'd hoped to find at the end? that i understand.#thinking that it was a complete waste of your time because it wasn't about the romance?#and wasting extra time to complain about it?#my dude (gender neutral) maybe that's a you problem#idk why you'd read 47k words of a fic if not seeing them kiss at the end is all it takes to make it a waste of your time#like jfc dude this is a huge ship in a huge fandom it's not like you have to settle for crumbs here#if you want a heavy-romance shipping fic there are just. so so so many. to choose from. you have so many great options!#don't ''waste your time'' with one that's telegraphed pretty hard pretty early as not being heavy on the romance#sorry i think the a-spec within me got more rankled than the author within me#this is like the person at the table who eats the whole meal then complains to management that it sucked and they want their money back

Do we know Miles's or any of the AM members' opinions on the genocide in Gaza? Like I love them to death, but the lack of response has reaaally been bothering me. Not to mention the amount of privilege in not carrying about politics *looking at you, Alex*. I've seen Louise being pro-Israel.
OHHHHH anon i've been WAITING to talk about this. thank you for the question.
the answer is no we don't. to my knowledge, none of the members have openly talked about it. there has been no story on their official instagram, nor has matt (the only one with a public profile) posted anything about it on his account. not only that, but i did some research and apparently that benefit concert that him, tyler parkford and josh homme took part in also hosted people like jesse hughes and sarah silverman who are more or less openly pro-israel. which doesn't mean *matt* is, it just means he's not careful who he's associating himself and his image with.
the others have stayed silent. and miles, too - who's so active on social media - has never even reposted anything about it. not a word.
about the girlfriends, louise (and amanda) have spoken about "wanting peace" and louise especially has reposted some stupid ass posts a few months ago basically saying it's not "childish" to just wish peace for everyone - proving that she literally knows nothing about what has been happening for DECADES. both her and amanda have repeatedly proven they're centrists, which is just so. yikes.
the only one among all of them who has openly and almost immediately asked for a ceasefire is katie.
i've seen some people argue that the royal albert hall proceeds have gone to the war child association, but honestly - that's not enough. that was before, and even though knowing that is better than nothing, something they did in the past doesn't justify their lack of a statement on the genocide in the present. the fact that they're not even active on social media - just because they're too lazy to get someone to properly manage their account - isn't an excuse for staying silent.
whether they like it or not, they're celebrities. they have a platform they could use and they repeatedly choose not to use it. i love them but for the past few months i've been beyond disappointed in them.
#and then i see people on here shitting on other celebrities with bigger platforms for their lack of a statement#just because you have a weird personal vendetta against people like taylor swift and others (also their gfs)>#> doesn't mean our favs are looking any better. i'm hugely disappointed in her and all the other celebrities who have stayed silent#and i'm just as upsed with am. they're not an indie unknown band. they have 7.6 MILLION followers on ig#using their platform could actually do something#just bc they have a 'smaller' platform than other bigger celebrities doesn't mean they don't have one#they actually have SUCH a big platform#dan and phil did a stream and raised so much money and they have an even smaller platform can you imagine how much am could raise#or even simply do the bare minimum and post something to show where they stand. TALK about it. but they simply choose not to#and yeah they could be donating in private. we don't know. and that's exactly it. their silence makes us question them#and also. why is it that people on here only hold accountable for their silence the celebrities they don't personally like#but stay conveniently silent on am's and miles' lack of a statement? do i once again smell double standards?#again i love them as much as the next person but i will ALWAYS hold them accountable for their actions (or lack thereof)#answered
