The Magnus Archives is a fucking pipeline, I swear. At first, I was like:

"I don't listen to podcasts...not since I listened to a few episodes of Chuckle Sandwich...they're far too long...I dont know if I'm going to even finish this..."

*listens to the entire podcast*

"Holy fuck, that was awesome. I'm obsessed!"

*listens to it again, finishing in less than a month*

"Wow, that was awesome, but who is this Arthur Lester I keep hearing of from adjacent fandoms? I think it's funny that me and the main character share the same name...Maybe I'll check it out."

*sees the length of the episodes*

"Wow, this is going to take a while..."

*gets caught up with Malevolent in two weeks by listening to it at work*

"Holy shit, that was awesome, but what is this Welcome to Night Vale thing I heard of one time a few years ago in a passing conversation I have barely any recollection of?"

*listens to WTNV*

"Oh fuck, I have an addiction to audio dramas now"

Post Script:

I've learned that it is very easy to continuously listen to podcasts for lengthy amounts of time at work, given the fact that I work 8 hour shifts stocking and recovering grocery aisles. That being said, if you ever see a short emo guy restocking shelves in a random fucking store with one earbud in, always assume that he is feeding his horror podcast addiction, especially if his name is Arthur. Exclusively if his name is Arthur.

Because there is only one person I know with that name.

And it is me.

Tumblr User Arthur "Ikkaros Archangel (Archangeliccc)" Gaylord IV Avatar of the Whore Goddamn Motherfucking Jurgen Leitner...the First...my official title...

Now, I have to go unlock all of the characters in hit game from 2007, Sonic and the Secret Rings so I can play as Shadow the Hedgehog in party mode. (Unrelated to the above post)

Episode 39

Okay one thing I really love about Gx is it hard commutes to the idea of a duel spirit world. I didn’t realize just how early that commutes to it. Like it’s mentioned in DM. But I love that all the different archetypes in Gx have like their own mini part of the spirit world and how much the Spirit world is crossing over. (Again this school is on a ley line)

Atticus is moving

The fact that all the dark scorpions are just hang out on campus and have been doing jobs there is actually really fun

Chazz sleeping with ear plugs is such a move.

Chazz going detective mode is so fun especially since he used his Ojama cards as spy’s. I love that the weak spirits he was so embarrassed by are now helping him and he’s proudly declaring it.

Anytime someone plays ‘themselves’ cures my depression. It’s so silly. All these people just ran into the field.

They also just attacked Chazz with real weapons

They all just ran off the field. This is so ridiculous

The Obama brothers just chilling on their field so they can’t run back out.

And the first time we get Ojama King. I love how much Chazz has taken to the Ojama cards

“Chazz seemed concerned. Wonder why?” It’s because he just gained 5 new roommates which explains the earbuds.

For someone who is so embarrassed by taking to spirits. He sure takes in a lot of strays. Like these were Shadow Riders he could have thrown them down the well but he kept them and gave them a home.

It’s a crime this isn’t the Chazz we have by season 3 (he hasn’t changed he just doesn’t get to shine) having him Jaden and Jesse running around with spirits would have been an event.

Oh well that’s what post cannon arcs are for.

Episode 40

It’s the Egyptian Pharaoh episode

The little hand drawn pictures of Yugi and Seto in Professor Banner’ official presentation to his class made me laugh so loud I scared my dog. Like my dude there are so many pictures of them you could have used. Why did you hand draw them?

Jaden had to listen to his class thirst for his dads and uncles and aunts. Some kid just called out Mai Valentine and Jaden has to be rolling his eyes so hard

They just brought up ancient Egypt and the ‘best duelist’ and Jaden is ready for Atem’s name. The Ishtar family had been working hard to reveal the true history of Duel monsters and Egypt so his Uncles first life had gotten some fame to it.

But they pull out Abidos, someone Jaden has never heard of, and say he was undefeated? Jaden is absolutely texting Atem later to ask about this guy.

Okay Jaden and Chazz are brothers. Chazz just sassed him with “sure and then you’d beat Yugi and Kaiba to.” And Jaden just played it straight and teased Chazz till he gets put in ahead lock. This is peak brother behavior

Alexis and Zane are still each other confidants. I wish this continued on later seasons. Their season 1 relationship is so cute.

They were just attacked by mummies.

Never mind he doesn’t have to text Atem because he and his friends just got spirited away on Abidos’s spirit ship.

Sigh…Why does everyone have to make a sexist remark to Alexis.

Jaden instantly volunteering to duel.

Chazz “ya ya it’s not our first shadow game.” And the. Throwing Jaden Syrus’s duel disk. (Once again peak brothers)

Jaden is being so disrespectful. He grew up around a pharaoh. It’s hard to look at a Pharaoh as a god on earth when he’s seen Atem when he’s sleep deprived and isn’t processing anything. He knows they are human.

He just stabbed Jaden with a spear.

Love all the H.E.R.O. Cards in this duel.

Jaden is so happy to be playing. This man has talked down to him the whole time and just got his deck mocked as weak. But hes just here for a good time and a challenge

Which Abidos is not providing. “You can’t attack me!” Oh baby no one ever actually played with you did they? Flashback confirmed.

Jaden, you sweet boy. “Let’s start your first real duel right now!” He’s so nice to him.

Ohh Jaden just got hit hard.

Jaden compliments him and his dueling right before he beats him.

“I was thinking you could come back with me. Your to good for this place. Come back with me to my kingdom (the afterlife) and I promise you power and fame.” All while holding his hand. Abidos met someone who finally treated him like a regular person and wanted to play and proposed to him because that is what that is.

(Chazz’s only concern being that he can have Jaden’s room. Absolute sibling coded)

Jaden absolutely called Atem after this and told him everything that happened. Atem knew off Abidos. He is older than Atem and he had heard all about the dueling fake from his father and court. It was a cautionary tale to the royal family to always make sure their strength was true. Abidos was luck to rule at a time when Egypt was peaceful.

Hearing that the man came to this world and fought Jaden is concerning but no more so than any of the other shadow riders.

No the concerning part is that this man proposes to Jaden and offered to take him to the afterlife. If he had the magic power to get to the realm of the living he could absolutely drag Jaden to the afterlife. What would they have done if Abidos didn’t take Jaden’s no as an answer?

Atem reaches out to Mahad and asks him to seek out Abidos in the afterlife. Wanting to make sure this won’t be a problem later.

Abidos is in the Egyptian afterlife but his time period is in a different spot than Atem and his father. (They’re like neighboring kingdoms that way all the pharaoh family’s kinda have their own setup.)

Abidos is sitting there pinning and wondering how he can insure that Jaden will come to the Egyptian afterlife. He doesn’t want to speed up his friends journey through life or shorten it. But he doesn’t want to make sure Jaden chooses to come to the Egyptian afterlife.

Mahad and Mana’s visit is the best possible thing for him. They know Jaden? Jaden has a connection to Egypt? Jadne has family in Egypt? This is the best news ever.

Long story short Abidos starts hanging around with Aknamkanon and Atem’s court. They all watch over Jadne together. Aknamkanon and the court are thrilled to have someone around who has met and dueled Jaden. Abidos is pumped to have people who know Jaden and to have a way to watch over him. He also starts learning how to duel from Set, Mahad, Mana, and Aknamkanon. He wants to be a challenge for Jaden when he arrives. He has the time to train and he’s going to use it. (He might also need to challenge some people to a duel for Jaden but that’s another conversation that won’t matter till the Gx cast is dead)

Episode 41

Finally an Atticus and Alexis episode!!

Baby Alexis and Atticus designs

Sigh. Alexis has been kidnapped again.

Zane cradling Atticus is wild. So cute.

Crowler thinking this is happening because he never paid titan. This is great.

Alexis is back. She’s dueling for her brother memory. I love seeing her shine finally

Titan is a real shadow duelist now and Alexis is surrounded by darkness so she can’t see his field which is a nice gimmick

We are in episode 41 and it’s Alexis’s first Shadow duel. I love all the Jaden content but can we let the other cast members do something??

Atticus reaching for Alexis because they can’t see her as Jaden supports him. Very sweet.

Alexis don’t just give up. Thank you for calling out Atticus. Love the sibling dynamics

The shadow creatures that come to eat him are super disturbing and the kids all just watched that and were like ya that just happened… moving on.

They bing up the other missing students in season 4 right. Because like Atticus just said he went with several students but he’s to only one backs

Also the reveal that Professor banner is in on the madness is a great reveal.

I will say this episode is another on that really highlights the differences between GX and DM.

In DM when the gang couldn’t see Yugi’s duel against Pegasus they used their ‘power of friendship’ to protect Yugi from Pegasus shadow magic. Which is silly but like at least they did something. The Gx cast will just stand there and make witty banter or talk crap. About Jaden about the opponent.

In battle city when Mai and Joey had their shadow games Yugi/Atem did everything they could to be present and supportive. Atem even used his own body to block the blast from hitting Mai and Joey. so to see Alexis in a dark bubble and all of the cast just standing there like ‘well wait this out.’ Is a super different vibe. There isn’t a lot they could do but they are also not really trying anything. Tristian ran into the shadow bubble to try and get to Yugi.

It’s just different which is a good and bad things.

The bonds in Gx just aren’t as strong as the DM cast of the 5Ds cast. Like it’s no wonder season 3 happens.

I am happy that someone beside Jaden finally fought and won against the shadow riders. Way to go Chazz and Alexis

[thatcatbasil]

so, first impressions with endless ocean luminous

there are a lot of changes i absolutely Do Not Like but i would be lying if i said i wasn't having a good time with it so far

unfortunately i'm not gonna have screenshots in here since my phone quit letting me download pics from the switch and i don't feel like going through the hassle of tryna figure out getting the microsd into my computer right now

so first, stuff i don't like just to get it out of the way

yeah elephant in the room is the randomly generated maps. when the first trailer came out i did a lot of mental gymnastics to arrive at the conclusion that the veiled sea was just one map that was randomly generated and we would get other maps that were not but Nope you're only in the veiled sea and it's all randomly generated. makes you really miss the established locations from the first couple games. it feels really ephemeral now and the locations don't really stick with you as much

really miss the hayley westenra/celtic woman tracks. the ambient music's okay but i think the appeal of endless ocean's soundtrack has always been the licensed music to me. 30 mins in i unplugged my earbuds from my switch and put em in my laptop so that i could put on carrickfergus. then i put on jenny nicholson's evermore park video and had that playing for the entire rest of the time i was diving

the main menu's UI is kinda plain compared to the previous games. i miss the marine encyclopedia being an actual book you could flip through. this UI's a lot more sleek and modern but it doesn't have the same charm

no zoom mode makes me a little sad. i miss the little detailed environments! i miss looking for the coins in them! i like that the coins made a comeback as salvage though.

haven't played too much of the story mode cause i was mainly drawn to the solo dives buuut yeah hasn't really gotten hooked me yet. i've only done the first 3 parts of it so far so we'll see if i end up liking it more down the line. i think since it's just the first chapter(?) they're treating it more like a tutorial. i like david though he's silly

there are. a lot of legendaries huh? i do very much like the fact that they brought back the ones from the first two games (ran into ancient mother on my first solo dive and i was like !!!!! there she is!!!!!) but you see them so frequently it kinda takes away the feeling of them being "legendary" in a way? ive done three solo dives and cacao maharaja has shown up in every single one. on my third one i saw three grave diggers all in the same location. i've seen five different apollos. feels like there should be more of a distinction between the new "rare" creatures (the ones that just have funny patterns like the white orca i've seen several times) and the more unique named legendaries where the legendaries spawn a lot less often. but then again i could see that being an RNG nightmare for completion when it's combined with the randomly generated maps.

text to speech lady. i muted her as soon as i had the opportunity LMAOOO. maybe i'm just too used to the previous games not having any voices at all. oh shoot maybe that's why there's no licensed music tracks? cause text to speech lady would distract from them? damn.

not really into the customization. looks like you can only change the colors of your equipment and there's no unique gear

but excluding all that the creature models and most of the environments have been absolutely fantastic. i say most of the environments cause there's been a few situations where the map would have these decently big areas of empty sand with nothing in them (reminds me of manoa lai f-5 and e-4 that kinda area leading out of deep valley around where the pirate ship can spawn where it's a lot of empty sand and no critters except for the pacific white-sided dolphins) and i didn't find it as interesting as the actual coral reefs wrecks etc.

but the creature models! they're really awesome! they look great! i guess it's to be expected since it's on better hardware but it's still so cool to see the improvement.

also on my third dive something that was actually pretty cool happened. so i came up with a system for exploring the maps where i would just go around the perimeter and then go in like a spiral so that i could get a general sense of everything. when i reached the bottom right corner of the map the water turned green and i was like Oh this is the water color from the prehistoric areas in the trailers. so i go down a little deeper and run into an icthyosaur (forgot the specific name. could've just been icthyosaurus). and i felt like this

then i turned around to see a GIANT icthyosaur (shonisaurus) and i felt like this

the prehistoric critters in this game are COOL AS HELL. since we only got three of them total in the previous games (and couldn't even see em up close since they swam outside the boundaries of their respective maps!) it's really awesome to get to see them up close. and so many of them, too! excited to find anomalocaris later on. i love anomalocaris

miscellaneous other observations/comments/etc

honestly i don't really mind that the animals attacking you from the second game was omitted. it does feel a little weird to run into thanatos and not get attacked though (especially since he was doing the exact attack animations from the second game. side note i always thought it was a lil funny that all the creatures would slap you with their tails instead of biting you)

on my third dive i ran into the okeanos's guardian in a cave and i really like the glowing eyes effect it has now. thanatos was chilling down there too. shark party

i'm guessing that you can have creatures follow you? haven't gotten the chance to do it yet though cause i don't have enough points to get the creatures i want to follow me haha. i need to make friends with the orcas

oh yeah this game does have its own unique named legendaries! i found the seal that likes to wear jewelry that i unfortunately can't remember the name of right now. that was cool. trying to find all of those critters to get it to appear is a bit of a hassle but i guess that's why there's so much emphasis on the multiplayer.

but yeah. tl;dr it's absolutely no blue world but luminous does have some good things in its own right. maybe i've just been starved for endless ocean content for the past 14 years though

i think i'll do a proper full write-up for this game that i'll put on the neocities site at some point after i finish up the story mode and do some more solo dives and really let everything soak in. might be some time before that though since it's finals season and i need to work on stuff. see ya

Was just gifted new earbuds that have a "gaming mode" which means I can listen to hozier in even better quality.

Dear EA/Maxis

We need to talk....

As a builder I don't actually play the game a lot but, recently, I had the opportunity to get more into the game play side of things and I am just gobsmacked at how frustrating of an experience it was.

You need to know these 3 things before we have our chat, 1. I have NO script mods in, as I have been prepping for your next update apocalypse. I do have a default skin, eyes, sliders and my choice of skin details because, well, let's be honest, you lot are terrible at creating acceptable looking body beautifuls. 2. ALL of my drivers are checked daily and updated, if needed. And 3. without getting into specifics, my system is very capable of handling the taxing of your 8 year old game.

I have been a sims player for over 20 years, I have dumped thousands into your franchise. I own every single expansion, game, and stuff pack you have ever released including your most recent money grab "kits" I do not feel that telling you this should garner me a higher standard of propriety because EVERY Sims player should have the ability to enjoy your game without the need to take a Xanax first! I just want you to be aware that my simlish is fluent (with and without alcohol).

Below is a glimpse of the issues I was having, and there were MANY, that I had in the few short hours I played, I have also included some colourful pictures because...well...some people learn differently...

Let me introduce you to Marley, she has been in my game for a long time, mostly to help me take screenshots for thumbnails (she is using the CC listed above, using the CC I normally have in my game and completely nude for reference)

Please fix your clothes so my normally healthy looking sims don't look like they have successfully dropped 20 pounds instantly without the need of some photoshop magic, your clothes should NOT being slimming my sims no matter how slim or heavy they are!

While Marley and I were in CAS we noticed that there is an alarming amount of clothes with texture oddities, mostly pants that made Marley look like she had taken a mahoosive shite, don't get me wrong it's a look, but? There were also several shirts and shoes that need fixing, too, however, I think the pants are the worst. Here are some examples:

When we were done discovering the horrors of CAS, I took Marley in game and moved her into a lovely little build in simlicy's save file (2.0) Here's a peak just in case you're feeling nosey:

After we loaded in, Marley stood on the lawn, while I immediately opened buy mode (be thankful this is a game play observation because I could blow your mind with the issues I have found while building) I bought Marley an easel, a bed, a knitting bag (the first of MANY mistakes I made) and a rocking chair. Going back into live mode I set Marley to apply for a painter job, then "cook" a salad, when she was done the welcome wagon arrived. I told Marley to invite her neighbours in, instead of doing as I had asked Marley sat down in the rocking chair and stared smugly at me until the welcome wagon left. Defense Exhibit A:

After shunning her new neighbours Marley settled in for some knitting relaxation with her new earbuds in. I selected "cottagecore" which was a genre neither of us had heard before and definitely will NOT again as it sounds like the entire "cottagecore" list played all at once with the added background noise that I can only describe as "living in a haunted house with a ghost that just had its nails did" I closed my game out of fear of being possessed by this entity and went immediately to your forums, where I discovered that this is a known bug that has been happening since 2017.

When I loaded back in, I was instantly hit with a phone call from a cat who wanted to know if he or she should go on a date with Eliza Pancakes and of course I said yes because pfffft what could possibly go wrong there, am I right?! Probably not but *shrugs*

After Marley told the cat that we would like to receive an invitation to the wedding and hung up my eyes were instantly drawn to the floor...what...what is THAT?! DUST?! At this point I was starting to get exasperated, and I am pretty sure Marley was, too. So back into buy mode I went to buy a vacuum for a house Marley hadn't even slept in yet. (reported fixed 23/03/2021 Patch PC: 1.72.28.1030, still broken)

I asked Marley if she felt like knitting in the rocking chair, she said she was a bit tired so I reminded her that we needed to recoup the cost of the expensive vacuum I just had to buy. Begrudgingly, Marley sat down and started knitting a panda beanie. Before long she began waving and yelling insisting I let her go to bed, she was exhausted, and truly, so was I. So off Marley trudged. I worried that she would not make it the 15 or so steps to her bed but she did. I sighed. Then, out of the blue and with the drama level of a high school Shakespearean actress, Marley stood up and threw herself on the floor next to her bed where she slept, I presume, like a baby. Ok Marley, you do you, boo! (broken with toddler patch - 2017)

While Marley slept I slipped into build/buy mode to add a pop of colour to her bedroom with a piece of art that had 2 birds on it and attempted a paint change. The art disappeared when I applied the paint, where did it go? Marley did you take the art?! No, of course not, you're still asleep on the floor.....(reported fixed 17/01/2023 Patch PC: 1.94.147.1030, still broken)

Marley got up bright and early the next morning, I asked her to make eggs and toast....she canceled the request repeatedly insisting she needed to search the web on her phone. (reported fixed 30/08/2022 Patch PC: 1.91.186.1030, still broken)

Finally Marley made it to the kitchen and began to cook...and apparently light the stove on fire

......thanks Marley.....I didn't know you were a closet arsonist.

After breakfast I clicked on the knitting bag and asked Marley to finish the beanie she had started the night before, she said she could not, so I clicked on the rocking chair and asked again, she just waved

I repeatedly tried the bag and the chair to get her to knit, she just kept on waving, she is such a friendly sim <3 Ok Marley, please go knit the beanie on the bed

No? Ok Marley, please scoot over and try the other side of the bed, still waving I see....Marley you have to use the loo, so go do that while I cue up knitting one more time before I reload, ok? Marley, you have been in the bathroom for over an hour....

Are you knitting on the loo?! Are you serious Marley?? Let's move you to a more comfortable place. WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T KNIT IN THE DAMN ROCKING CHAIR?! Ok Marley, my face is red and I am annoyed let me just hit pause for a minute...Marley...why are you still moving...did you just "break the space-time continuum" like they cracked that joke about in the "patch" that was supposed to fix this issue?! (reported fixed 17/01/2023 Patch PC: 1.94.147.1030, still broken)

Alright Marley I am going to pull the knitting bag from your inventory, sell it and then buy you a new one, this one is clearly borked...let me just...wait, why can't I put this bag down, what do you mean I can't put it in the middle of the floor where there is literally nothing else around it...*click click click click* Wait, where'd the bag go?!

Marley let's just forget about knitting for a while, please go turn on the vacuum and then we will work on a painting to calm us both down. Oml, Marley that painting is lovel...why is the vacuum cleaner smoking?! Sh*t Marley, I think the vacuum found the knitting bag....

When Marley got home from work the next day she was clearly upset, after a SINGLE DAY at work she was feeling like she was stuck in a dead end passionless job, I sighed.

I asked her to change her clothes and then go paint, she changed her clothes and then stood on her front lawn for over an hour in game time, made a face at me then finally went to paint (known issue, reported as far back as 08/2020, still broken)

When I attempted to save and close the game out of frustration my save got stuck for 40 minutes before I gave up and restarted my PC.

The point of all this, EA/Maxis is you have chosen money over your players. These "fixes" you say you're doing are clearly not actually fixing anything! Your players are crying out for theirs games to be fixed while you are announcing the release of "growing together" And quite honestly I have found myself disgusted with this whole thing. WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO ADD MODS TO THE GAME TO FIX IT!! To quote a member of this community who I admire greatly "no other ea game is this fucking borked and no other gaming community would accept this but cc and mods more or less served as some sort of bandaid for this broken ass game." -xldkx 31/07/2022 (original post here)

When I am finished posting this I will be going into that horrible buggy af app (I am sensing a theme here) that you have forced us all to switch to, where I will be canceling my pre-order of "growing together" I am done blindly throwing money at you for a game I can not even play in its current state!

FIX YOUR DAMN GAME!!!

What's in my bag(s)?

With my first therapy appointment coming up tomorrow, I decided to pack two small bags with me (since my usual Large backpack might be a little strange to take with me). One is my sensory/"calm down" bag, and the other is my food and drink bag.

My "Calm Down" Bag has these items in it:

Sunglasses (wraparound)

Sleep mask (100% blackout)

Loop Quiet Earplugs

Bone Conduction Headphones

Apple AirPod Pros 2

Wired earbuds

Skullcandy Bluetooth earbuds

Fidget toys (will go into more detail later about these!)

3DS

Face mask/cover

Gloves

Beanie hat

MP3 Player

Phone

Mini communication Cards and Wet-Erase notebook (+ pen)

Why so many earbuds?

🌟 The ones I almost always use are my Apple Airpods, because of the transparent mode and noise canceling. These are my perfect earbuds, but the tracking doesn't work because I don't have an iPhone.

🌟 My Skullcandy Bluetooth earbuds are great quality standard Bluetooth earbuds that have a functional tracker (Tile). These are great when I don't use my airpods, and because I keep these in the same zip-up pouch, I can track both of them at the same time.

🌟 My bone-conduction headphones were a gift from my roommate, and I use these at work because i can hear everything around me and I don't worry about them falling off. When I wear earplugs, I can still listen to music with these! (So when I want to have nearly complete silence, but still want to listen to music (and my airpods are dead) my loops + bone conduction headphones work great!)

🌟 My wired earbuds are here because my main MP3 player doesn't have Bluetooth functionality. (Funny, huh? I usually listen to songs I have installed on my phone, but if my phone battery is low and can't listen to music-- I have my mp3 player I can still listen to!) My phone also has an audio jack, so if my Bluetooth earbuds all ran out of batteries, I can still listen to music!

🌟 Loop Earplugs are useful when I want everything to be quiet. Sometimes, I don't even want to listen to music and I just want quiet.

For visual overstimulation, I use my sunglasses and sleep mask. Depending on how severe my overstimulation or light sensitivity is, I will pick one or the other. In all public places (excluding car rides), I always use my sunglasses. I like wearing a sleep mask in the car since I am a passenger princess.

I keep my face mask, gloves, and beanie hat in my bag because I have a lot of BFRBs. Face masks keep me from picking at my face, gloves keep me from nail biting, and my beanie keeps me from pulling out my hair when it's not shaved.

My 3DS is always in my calm down bag, because I can play just about any game I want on it. Since homebrewing it, I can play anything from Cooking Mama, to Tetris, to Tekken, to Mario Kart. I also have almost every early version of Pokémon on here!

My communication cards help me communicate my feelings and needs when I'm not able to talk. I am semi-verbal, and sometimes don't speak at all when I'm overwhelmed or upset. Sometimes what I need isn't on the cards, so I can write what I need on my notebook and wipe it off with water later.

I keep a lot of fidget toys, but my favorite ones are my Stimagz and this pretty glittery stick that reminds me of a snowglobe.

Lastly, I usually keep a Keychain plushie on my bag!

Onto the second bag! The Snack/Drink Bag

This bag has my water bottle, favorite snack(s), drink mixes, Floss, Candied ginger, Electrolyte drink mix, a collapsible Spork (Spoon+Fork), napkins, and Anti Acids. Attached to this bag are mini trash bags I can use to put my trash in when there's not a full trashcan nearby!

Keeping a bag like this nearby has helped me remember to take better care of myself, because before this I would hardly ever eat or drink anything.

I have the headcanon that the sportsmates are hipsters, judging by their fashion style and the design of Sprocco Square. They use their e-scooters to ride to cafe buttons while wearing their earbuds. Though I do have to say that I like the aesthetic of Sprocco Square, I think what holds the setting back is the lack of a Freeroam mode, like Wii Sports Resort's Airplane mode.

I do obviously think it would've been better if the game focused on Miis instead, Tomodachi Life already proved that the Miis can work with real proportions and different outfits as well.

I finished Ghostrunner 2, and based on the normal mode experience I kind of had less fun, not because it was too hard but too easy. It was less hard reaction and more first person bullet hell, with 3 shields (blocking)

I liked the harder reaction game play of the first more is all, I appreciate the story and lore developments more no doubt, and Rahu is one cool motherfucker, but the overall gameplay? Ehh.

Also I definitely didn't notice the music as much despite Playing with earbuds more often. Maybe it'll be a goal to really tune in on hard mode but, I didn't need 2 playthroughs to hear Celerity in the first game.

Ghostrunner 1 was a 9/10, this is 7/10. Still worth my time no doubt, but I miss the giant array robots being actually difficult.

Personally, I have similar feelings to Ghostrunner 2 as I do Dishonoured 2. More toys, more story, somewhat less fun.

amity i feel like would be one of those chill streamers with good vibes while the blight twins have a dramatic minecraft nether battle using only shears. either way, i am pro-blight kids being streamers

yeah i can see the twins doing Chaotic Nonsense if they streamed. they do weird bullshit like that and play games in ways the developers absolutely DID NOT intend or play really shitty games for fun. they're not GOOD at games and aren't necessarily trying to be, but they're funny to watch. i'm thinking Shenanigans akin to monster factory, but with more Mischief, somehow (and obviously way less professional cuz they're 16).

i think if amity were to put *effort* into entertaining people with her streams, then yea she'd have pretty good vibes. but mostly i see her doing less of that and more just going full gremlin mode, focussing only on winning the games and the stream quality going by the wayside. she's like. speedrunning papa's pizzeria while audibly breathing into the mic of the WORST pair of gas station earbuds, and inventing 4 new swear words when she messes up and only gets the second place world record
