This game feels like a huge fever dream. Like when I got my first COVID vaccine and I had a 105+ F fever and I just wrapped myself in my blankets and shivered while I cooked myself in my blanket burrito and had nightmares of falling endlessly in infinite space that also looked like hell from Bible™️. Yeah that’s what totk feels like so far

#tears of the kingdom #legend of Zelda #totk #I screamed about this to my friends already I’m sorry #but this game is so unsettling #despite like the silliness of some scenes and quests #I can’t wait to read reviews because dear god I need to know I’m not alone here

Kingdom Hearts 3 - Scala ad Caelum

#kingdom hearts 3 #kh3 #scala ad caelum #scenery #my gif #man... this world is truly breathtaking #it's so unlike any other place we've ever visited in these games #there's such an impressive amount of detail everywhere you look #i can't help but wander the streets imagining what it'd be like to see it full of people crowding around the shops and chatting happily #it's so clean that it feels like it'd be some kind of wind powered utopia #as nice as it is it does feel rather isolated #especially knowing that (quick dark road spoilers) we're told that the neighboring cities are completely desolate #it's a rather unsettling fact because it all looks so maintained and sterile #what happened here...

bait / hook / line / sinker

#the hunger games #finnick odair #thg #the hunger games fanart #this was a very very weird painting for me.#like i have painted decapitated heads and severed arms and shattered ribs and guts falling out and gallons of blood #and not once have i ever looked up from my work and been disgusted or disturbed by what i’ve painted #but the first day i was working on this one i looked at it and just felt so sick i had to get up and take a shower to get away from it #HE WAS 14 WTF WTF WTF WTF #that is a baby. that is a little kid. turned into a killer and paraded around like a novelty and used like a toy.#but on the whole i am very satisfied with this propaganda piece it's just as beautiful and unsettling as i wanted it to be #ugh my mind. nothing in the composition is overt but all the implications are there #not just the capitol's sexualization and brutalization of children but the fetishization of the districts' labor as well #as my good friend and mutual theworldiswhispering said.#'the hard labor you do is not safe from being romanticized by the people who benefit from it at your expense'#and i think about that every day #wherefore art thou #thg reread #why he so smooth.. just like a shark #[katniss voice] mfs took all my body hair cant have shit in the capitol #i just know tumblr's gonna crunch the quality of these images but i worked on a canvas 4 times larger than the usual size #so a lot of the detail gets lost when i post it. oh well. click for quality i guess #his expression changes when you're far away #far away he looks kind of vacant #close up he's smiling. like the photographer wanted a specific cocky emotion from him and it was there #but when you zoom out there's just a thousand yard stare #i did think about turning these into prints or actual posters but um. i don't think i should do that

before the Gameplay Reveal of Dragon Age: The Veilguard went live the other day, the stream had a countdown on a purple background. there was cool music playing in the background of this. there is a rewatch link for the gameplay video, but it doesn't include the song. Ghil Dirthalen recorded it though, so if you would like to re-listen to it, you can do so here at [this link]. there is also a link in the description of the video to a download of the audio file there.

maybe this is the music that plays over the 'Start Menu'? :)

#dragon age: the veilguard #dragon age: dreadwolf #dragon age 4 #the dread wolf rises #da4 #dragon age #bioware #video games #dragon age archivistssss #this song is so cool.. so ominous #eerie #haunting...#the drums.. like war drums or the thumping heartbeat of a great hulking beast...#the ominous but beautiful swelling strings.. reminiscent of an ancient place.. but off key and discordant #beautiful but unsettling. it's mournful but yearning #it sounds like the end of it or a reprise of the end of it played towards the end of the 'All the world #soon all the world will share the peace and comfort of my reign' trailer

The plot twist, the grand reveal, that everything we've come to know and understand is wrong is really cool.

The canon life system became so normalized to both character and viewer, only for c!Dream to announce at the end that it's not supposed to be that way. And we all know there was a time where it wasn't like that, it became like that, and no one questioned it until he and Punz did

#dreblr #vault talks #the concept is so fun to me #its like unsettling: something intrinsic being Wrong #and yea the Wrongness of the server also had to do with the egg and stuff like that #but something that felt written in stone- a rule of the game #the code the air they breathe the ground they walk on #etc etc

Blaming KH2 Sora’s anger and aggression all on Roxas really downplays how ready to throw hands Sora is in KH1 and CoM.

#also ignores rage form in kh3 obviously #but I’m talking about sora pre-roxas #i see this take so much and I’m like convinced ppl don’t pay attention to sora in kh1 or com #or they just take what diz/ansem the wise says about sora needing more anger in his heart at face value #even though ATW never knows what tf he’s talking about #my man was wrong about everything in kh2 why would you believe him #sure roxas unsettled in sora’s heart probably played a part #but it’s not all on him be so serious now #anyway. ppl keep reblogging that post from me even though I’m not the op #keep seeing ‘sora wants to kill so bad’ too #and like #i don’t know how to break this to you but sora has killed already #that’s a pretty significant thing that happens in every game #like i understand where you’re coming from but sora very much has killed people

Kingdom Hearts - End of the World

#kingdom hearts #kh1 #end of the world #scenery #my gif #this world is so fascinating...#i'm impressed by how the devs can create unsettling and ominous worlds while still using such vibrant colors #like they don't use grey tones as a juxtaposition to the lively disney worlds. they may darken the palette but it's still colorful #also the music here is on a whole other level. they certainly know how to set a tone and atmosphere #i never really noticed how the gummis in the chasm are constantly changing colors. same with those sticky looking web things #i had to include two gifs from that place because it's my favorite area #and now i'm finally done with creating a gifset for every world in kh1 :] three games down... many more to go

Been playing Pacific Drive for two days and it feels like what would happen if all the SCPs got loose. It’s great.

#pacific drive #scp #scp containment breach #the Tourists are very SCP like #and sometimes I hear the sky trumpets and it makes me so happy #the noises in this game are so unsettling #I’m like bro I just want to trick out my station wagon

The thing about the ffvii remakes is that you will enjoy them more if you’ve played the original. You will also hate them more if you’ve played the original. It is impressive.

#I’m never going to be over shinra manor. everything about it sucks ass in rebirth.#where’s the ambience. where’s the suspense. where’s the literally anything.#oh wow cool you’ve put a clusterfuck of furniture everywhere to show the disrepair….cool…? oh you’ve blocked off the stairs.#oh you’ve added. a pristine elevator.#directly next to the entrance.#to ferry you to the plot.#me foolishly: ah maybe in the return visit there will be more #no.#go to the elevator.#endure the worst mini game goofy ass dungeon you’ve ever had the displeasure of experiencing #they quite literally sucked every bit of atmosphere from nibelheim on a level I did not know was possible. holy shit.#like I’m just. in awe.#they don’t even pretend to make it unsettling. they’re just like ‘yup and here’s beloved nibelheim where things are generally chill’#like. they didn’t even do a bad job of portraying the Incident. so why then did they decide to remove all nuance.#WHY IS THERE A HOJO HOLOGRAM THERE TO TAUNT YOU.#Ffvii rebirth spoilers #ffvii #ffviir #final fantasy vii

video game realism for me peaked with the early 2000s attempts with photo textures stretched over still kind of primitive blocky models, that one's really fun.

#so everyone has like. incredibly lifelike skin and hair and stuff but they're just cubes.#it should be uncanny. and sometimes it is. it works very well in horror games/areas' favour for both that reason #and limitations meaning your brain has to fill in a lot of detail which can make things more unsettling #but I do generally prefer it to the uncanniness of photorealistic humans that never move quite right #technically impressive but just feels off to look at
