the system possession au has had me thinking lately: how do you guys interpret the system when it comes to the two transmigrators? Do you see it as one system working with both transmigrators for the same overarching goal of Fixing The Plot, or do you see it as two distinct systems, unique to each transmigrator?
#svsss#i always thought of it as the same umbrella system#but i've seen in other aus and fics that other people see them as distinct#so im curious!#i don't think there's a right or wrong answer i think it just depends on interpretation#personally i see it as like. what's a co-op game i can use as an example#say youre playing tf2. and for the purposes of this metaphor sqq and sqh are on the same team#they are playing the same game on the same server with the same goal#the exact commands they get might be different because theyre playing different classes#but theyre still playing the same game#but i could see the other interpretation being like. idk. a more solo set-up that happened to be combined

The only correct form of caltam, as far as i am concerned
#tw: opinions#at times whenever the topic of caltam comes up i am left wondering if i played the same game as others#i don't think enough ppl dig in to Cal's and Tammy's characters to realize just how horribly uncompatible they are as a couple#“they're perfect for each other”#bitch where#if their relationship wouldn't be so unwritten they would be having screaming matches from 15 onwards#Tammy is married to a fairytale view of love and princesses and princes and if you looked for atleast a minute at Cal's character you'd#realize he's NOT that type of person#they bud heads on a lot of significant things that play a major role to their characters such as Tammy's protectiveness over the creche kid#and her future family and desire to be protected and stood up for and Cal unyileding view of radical pacifism and hypocritism#i am not trying to be funny when i say i could seriously write a whole ass 10+ page essay on why they're not good for each other#ppl don't realize they look at each other through rose-colored glasses and that they like the IDEA of each other not the actual them#bc of how they grew up and used to see each other. But theyre just another example of how the adults failed their generation#Tammy deserves better than Cal and i am saying this as Cal's number 1 fan please free my girl from the shackles of hypocritical men#she should go make out with Nemmie instead that would do her some good since Nem actually protects her loved ones#i think if i WERE to like caltam is if they were radioactive toxic to one another#anyways i think the solution to caltam is a horrible teen divorce bonus points if cal has an ego death then they stick to being besties#y'all have no idea how good it feels to rant abt these two LMAO#i've been saying this and i'll continue to be saying this Cal and Tammy are better as friends no you cannot change my mind#theres so much more wrong with them but if id list everything we'd be here till next week#i was a teenage exocolonist#iwatex#exocolonist#meme#my meme#been dealing with a nasty sinus infection and a cold that just won't go away for the past 2 weeks but art is still gretting worked on#prolly posting some art in a few hours

between Dread continuing from a game on GBA (and really every game prior to that too) and Prime 4 continuing from 2 games on GameCube and Original DS, Metroid has the longest narrative endurance of any multi-creator series I've ever seen. Threads left in stasis decades ago when the series was shelved picked right back up once development resumes—an entire generation of developers later—like nothing ever happened
#metroid#time to play Hunters#I literally wrote like 2 months ago “if they do this right Sylux will be a series household name the same way Dread is now”#theyre doing it#honestly footage they showed looks like absolute garbage though.#utterly unevolved gameplay with worse graphics and animation than Prime Remastered#hopefully it's an extremely alpha engine version with overdeveloped visuals for a teaser.#pray it's another dread/luigis mansion 3/fe echoes scenario where the barebones trailer footage doesnt do the real game justice#currently a Prime Remastered romhack would look and play better than what they showed#and shots STILL dont even cast light. How are you supposed to have immersive environmental atmospherics without dynamic lighting#the Gamecube games UNDERSTOOD that. N64 GAMES UNDERSTOOD THAT#bloom and 4k rendering fog haze doesnt do anything but dilute atmosphere. clarity is what makes graphical engines feel rich#anyways samus' Prime 4 suit design is Peak. THATS Samus. not this form fitting “Zero Suit+Armor” early game bs from the new 2Ds (love u)#ALSO METROIDS ACTUALLY BEING DEPLOYED AS WEAPONS [homer rain gif]

for the past month I've been musing about how much datv feels like as if someone at bioware was like "guys we are in the shit and we need a hit STAT. what's our most beloved game? mass effect 2!! let's make that again but in dragon age" and yet it's the most criticized da game I've seen
#don't get me wrong im not surprised about this. ive said before that DA is too complex of a world to be played like a mass effect game#and while i think me2 is overrated its just a part of a bigger story with the same protagonist#its still. so interesting to me#idk what they were thinking here but they were clearly wrong. and its a testament how much little things matter#you can't just follow an old formula from a different franchise and forget why people like the franchise youre applying that too#companions and companion quests wont. make it the best game ever. where is the rest#da critical#''rook is a professional thats why theyre doing this '' rook is not shepard babe. we followed shepard through thick and thin. rook just#popped up. c'mon man#something about this all seems so desperate to me

Ever think about how tragic it is to be in The Universe's place as a being that loves all of creation but can never express that in a way that the subjects of their affection can understand so they created a middle line of it. To grant any and all wishes just to show that they are there, they are listening, and they are giving you the means to grasp what you desire.
But it's never enough because to a higher being such as The Universe, with no bias on What wish to grant or a bias on What is right or wrong, they grant wishes indiscriminately. Because they love everyone, so they grant everyone's wishes, all the while bending it so as to prevent needless damage, because they love you.
But their love is also what hurts you, like how Loop had to give up in the end cuz of how hopeless it all seemed so Loop had to make another wish. And how Siffrin continued to suffer during the timeloops, and especially how much it hurts Loop, to see someone else achieve what they've always wanted to have. To Loop, they're The Universe's favourite cosmic joke but to The Universe, they love them.
They granted Loop's wish, and then granted another, they continuously grant Siffrin's wish. They love them, but they don't know how much it hurts all the same because they can't understand the way all of creation expresses love. Because their own language is incomprehensible to anyone else but them. Ever think about how lonely it must be to be a higher being with a language only they can understand.
#aria rants#disappeared for awhile playing video games only to reappear talking bout the Universe. im Very Normal bout them (lying liar who lies)#like-- the way i see the Universe is that theyre on a bit of a higher plane than the other gods as a being that encompasses all of creation#the Change God and the Expressions are in the same plane which is a bit lower than the Universe's#since theyre all higher beings they have a better grasp at understanding the Universe anyway so it isnt as lonely#but its still pretty lonely to be the only one with a language the others cant comprehend even if theyre being understood#and it gets reaaaally lonely when the very subjects of their affection and adoration cant understand them at all#they can understand all of creation but at the same time cant comprehend it themself. its like an ouroboros with a mirror#the other higher beings can understand yet cant comprehend the Universe all the while#the Universe can understand but cant comprehend all of creation. its one tragic and lonely cycle for em#isat spoilers

Kiss/fuck marry kill is such a funny game because it's like. Are you SEXUALLY ATTRACTED to this person, LIKE THEM and think they'd be good in a LONG-TERM PARTNERSHIP, or HATE THEIR GUTS AND WANT THEM TO DIE?
#just realized i phrased this post exclusively for the one person variant of the game. i don't want to rephrase it. it's still funny right#do u think theyre hot a good person or DESERVING OF DEATH#i said this#kiss marry kill#lets see... follow/mute/block <- more of a scale#hug/intercourse/kiss <- in what way are u attracted/each of these 3 ppl attractive#asassinate/execute/murder<- same but for types of hatred#looks/knowledge/reputation <- whose looks knowledge and reputation would you want#(all of these can be played like the og - either 3 ppl to sort or 1 you decide on)#marry/meet/mother <- marry meet once or have as your mother.#sorry i wanted alliteration a better one would be marry/acquaintance or friend/meet once#coworker/co-conspirator/co-parent <- would u rather work conspire or raise a child together#thats kinda like. different parts of marriage separated lol#follow mute block was my worst lol not only because digital kissmarrykill has prolly been done before anywyas

watching playthroughs of a couple new indie horror games people are raving about rn and just sitting there after like oh thats it ?
#i swear im not trying to sound different im not a pick me i just dont get the hype bro😭#the artstyles and certain shots are great i love ps1 graphics and such but story/horror/scares wise? sure man whatever#also i dont think a troubling issue that lies in the underlying plot automatically makes a story good (wow brave concept kat) but idk#not naming games bc im scared of fandoms HAHA but if u can apply it to a game then thats what this post is abt as far as u know#i’ll still watch a bunch if explanation videos bc i like fully knowing the story but i already know the whole thing so#also disclaimer (?)#one could argue you need to actually play it instead of watching someone else do it but i dont feel like it HAHA#you dont really have to play the game yourself if youre still getting the same exact content you would otherwise#ive watched a lot of gameplay that i havent played and still think theyre great games#because i still experienced the gameplay just like... idk secondhand? doesnt really ruin the experience imo

still love the fact that zero (f LI on the left) has a smaller chest than kinglsey (m LI on the right)
#cliffnotes/.txt#zero still looks v much like ur run of the mill love interest (note thats what LI means if u werent following so far)#but her being a woman sold me on playing this#bc 1) i still feel like women LIs r kinda rare theyre becoming more common#but outside of explicitly yuri otomes theyre still rare#and 2) usually the women LIs r another femme like the mc ive never seen a butch LI before#so while this isnt the best one ive played i did pick up the game for her. i also wasnt super sold on kinglsey's design#but his character makes up for it and hes grown on me#also fun that these two r just dating milly at the same time and theres not rly any drama abt that#never seen an otome where they do that either

#none of the characters rlly speak to me as My Guy so far .. im intrigued by what loops deal is#but not rlly by them as a person? so i cant say theyre my fav#same with siffrin. i love how they sometimes say like some rlly concerning stuff like its no big deal#like “its ok if i die as long as my friends survive. as long as i do my job” n shit like Ok man! happy for you. theyre swag they intrigue m#i like mira:) shes nice. i like odille:) shes awesome. bonnie is cool n i like their dynamic w odille#isas cute#i find the whole concept intriguing. and im very curious as to who loop Is. if they were always like this or if they became this way#and how exactl theyre connected to siffrin. and the king bc im assuming theyre connected to hmi one way or another#maybe theyre the handmaiden that mira 'replaced' ?!! crazy if true#i like the ost a lot:) i like the art. the character interactions are rlly awesome the dialogues wonderful#its v lovely#played 3-4 hours just nyaow so theres still a LOT for me to get to... i wouldnt have played as much had i not been streaming to a friend#but!!ya:) its nice. i like it. ill def play more of it#its a nice game#its been in my wishlist for monthssss im happy to finally play it#anyway out of the main group odilles my fav for nyaow i think tho it might very possibly change#sharing my thoughts here bc i know some of my mutuals/followers like this game . and im the yapper 👍#the character dialogue rlly is everything to me. v awesome

for the ask thing: 🔥
🔥 if you were in the life games, how would you play it?
this is such a fun question because i actually will be participating in a re-created double life series soon for fun with some friends!
i'm not that great at pvp, nor at redstone or traps or anything like that, but i dooo loooove me some roleplay and i do loooove me some improv. i like being the bad guy more than anything, but like a dark gray kinda bad guy. if i were at my peak ideal play, i'd be something along the lines of lawful evil. all about deals, all about technicalities, trying to one-up people, taking advantage of others, etc.
now am i skilled enough to do that? probably not. but that's the vibe i'd want my "character" to be.
#chris talks#ask game#mcyt#i also do play a shitton of ctm maps#so maybe i'm like OK at pvp#compared to the average person#play renderXR ctm maps#this is propaganda.#play them. theyre so fucking awesome#play corona trials PLEASE please PELASEEEE#play with some friends or in a duo it's so fuckin fun#same with Mapwreck#horrifeye by renderxr is also goated. render just has some great maps#some vechs maps also still hold up pretty well#not like#compared to the new stuff#but spellbound caves still hits that nostalgia nugget in my brain#waking up... inferno mines.... theyre so dope#do not ask me abt ctm maps i will be here all day

In a life swap AU rather than just a role swap I think it would be sooo fucked up if Patroclus swapped with Theseus and Achilles with Asterius
#Loving a monstrous hero Slaying a beautiful monster etc etc .#The fact that Theseus felt such an innate connection to Asterius because of his physical entrapment and how that translates to the trappings#of his role . Not to mention how the greater public would handle a hero who looks like . well Asterius .#And then on Patroclus’s side of things I’d say his relationship to Achilles was actually really slow burn with him probably not getting it#at first . But from what I’ve heard he’s also softer than most other soldiers when it comes to murder . So I think while he wouldn’t have#the immediate ‘/oh/‘ moment Theseus is implied to have had I think he’d spent endless nights trapped in that labyrinth reliving that moment#and just . *thinking* about it . much like he did in game with his monologues about them .#I’m not sure about where that would leave us post game . Because Patroclus and Achilles probably die more or less the same way Asterius and#Theseus did . (Though I think Patroclus less . dramatically ? I think he’d grow despondent and a metaphorical ghost from his past would#finish him off . Since I imagine HADESGAME Theseus having a similarly anticlimactic and unglamorous death .) But sulking and then dying in#a rage just *so* isn’t Asterius . Maybe if Theseus and Achilles got swapped but I feel like thematically that’s just less interesting to me#? Trading one pretty insecure blonde boy for another . Maybe actually if Asterius was disrespected in a different way like something#relating to his monsterhood - I mean I’m sure he’s used to it but most people and certainly superiors would know better than to comment on#it when he’s literally in the midst of being the best soldier on the battlefield . And Theseus would be more morally righteous about their#reasoning for being in the war so while he’d stand up for Asterius he also couldn’t abide by what he found to be an amoral action .#There’s no way anyone would mistake him for Asterius though obviously so - oh my god wait JUST NOW realizing Achilles and Pat aren’t just#matching THEYRE WEARING THE *EXACT* SAME SET OF CLOTHING OKAY OKAY . So the whole armor thing isn’t gonna be a plot point . But the main#stuff would still be more or less the same . After Theseus dies I can imagine Asterius doing something stupid . Especially if he was already#like . pretty fucked in the head .#Okay I’m actually lowkey attached to this AU now .#post game plays out basically like a role swap AU I’d imagine . (Let Patchilles be together in the arena they deserve it <33)#Patroclus would be pathetic in a different way but he’d still make a decent heel because of his in game wittiness and original disdain#translating decently to the role . He would just be so so miserable when he loses though I think . And not even in a fun way .#Patroclus’s in game depression is nowhere near as fun as Theseus’s whining but . Unfortunately for him I love a melancholic king so I’m#keeping it .

Commented on an rdr2 edit and said Dutch was already going downhill since before the main story and I keep getting comments from toxic gamer men trying to debate me like "um actually 🤓" like shut the fuck UPPPPP u cannot debate me on this bitch when I know damn well ur toxic asses don't put two seconds of thought into the game's story cause all they wanna believe is that it's all about manliness and guns and violence
#vark posts#this is my fault for using tiktok ig lmao#i just really like seeing edits but i always forget the ppl on there are beyond stupid#i wouldnt be so mad about it if they weren't being absolute dick heads trying to prove me wrong#theyre all like 'um actually ur wrong cause guarma-' or 'actually it was Hosea's death'#LIKE BIIIITCH#DID WE PLAY THE SAME GAME????#LITERALLY CHAPTER FUCKIN ONE DUTCH BRUSHES HOSEAS CONCERNS OFF TO ROB A TRAIN DESPITE THE FACT THAT EVERYONE IS BARELY SURVIVING#hosea literally makes a comment still in ch1 that dutch was going downhill#if u read the damn newspaper clippings in camp dated for way in the past it shows that Dutch used to rob exclusively rich ppl#and give that money to the poor#this man was well and truly fucked way before the game#sure certain story events speed it up#but theres SO much dialogue early on even from Arthur himself that show Dutch has already changed#cishet toxic gamer bros pls stfu you cant argue with an autistic person abt their special interest#rdr2

he's going to kick out that guy's knees (chip doesnt wanna get involved)
#dip speaks#dip plays sonic#decided to get unleashed and im having a lot of fun :3#kid me wanted to play it so badly and now... i am finally doing it. this is for you kid me. o7#i love chip he's so silly. i need to draw him and werehog sonic now#the dialogue is still ingrained in my head after all these years omgg i used to watch those cutscenes constantly#seems like they very much had inspiration from old god of war for the werehog stages#ive never played those games myself (theyre a bit too much for me) but ive seen enough clips lol#that and a bit of spiderman. but mostly with that scene with amy where he swings away.#i love doing the combos yes yessss heheehahahAHHAHA i love fighting combos#good fighting combos anyway. side eyes frontiers.#but my goodness the game starts struggling a bit when there's a bunch of enemies ur fighting at once#im so sorry xbox it's okay u can do this#my xbox is 10 years old and i hadnt used it in a year but at the same time the game probably isn't super well optimized either#it came out 14 years ago. yeesh

they can't make a persona 4 remake because i know for a fact that they're going to make yasogami high look way too clean
#mayor talk#like i would LOOOVE to see the characters in crispy hd and slick new pause menus as much as the next guy#but i just know theyre going to fumble the environments soo hard lmao#i dont know a whole lot about the og p3's environments but from what little i saw... reload missed BIG TIME w the dorm#just turned on all the lights no mood whatsoever. and i know theyre gonna do the same w the school and dojima's house#maybe it was the graphic limits of the time or the shitty laptop i played it on but the crusty textures did SOOO much for the vibes of p4#like ive never seen environments that i feel like i could smell [in a really good cozy way] in a game like in p4g#and i think if the graphics were to be upgraded they would polish out all the fun cracks#i think this was why i was initially put off from the p4 anime [INITIALLY. i still like it]#they used like stock backgrounds for the school i think and ofc they were all clean and it felt so weird lmao
