#far: lone sails

Edit: The two updated versions got lost in the reblogs, and people keep asking for characters, so I'm editing the original post now.

Also, after playing In Stars and Time, I have realised Siffrin isn't really voiceless in the way I meant, and people have said Six and especially Mono shouldn't count, but consider: it's my gender and I get to choose the blorbo

one of my favorite things about media that doesn't give us much information about its characters is the flexibility it offers for fandom creators. i want to sit down and taste every fan's characterizations of their faves like mmm fine wine

Far: Lone Sails. One of my favorite relaxing games with pretty graphics. The game also has a good sound track. I can’t wait to post screenshots of the second game whenever I get around to playing the second game.

The giant ship in the 4.2 archon quest has super similar vibes to the giant ship in far: lone sails, I absolutely love it. More big mechanical ships with legs in media, please.

my favourite genre of video game is definitely "humble indie project maybe two or three hours long with simple mechanics and little to no dialogue that makes me feel emotions previously unknown to man"

I was today years old when I learned that this child (the character from Far; Lone Sails) not only has a name, but also we know what she canonically looks like:

Lone Henriksson my beloved <3

"Helpers"

Cecil and Eren make their way through the attic, with some peculiar friends along the way.

I love this game gently…♥

more of a sketch than a finished piece because I broke my arm and drawing became a bit problematic :')

What I Played in April 2024

April! Four months into the new year and I’m pretty pleased that I’ve managed to keep this up as a regular series on this blog. It was a better month than March for certain, as far as video games went. Playing this month’s games felt a lot less like a chore, I think because I wasn’t putting an arbitrary pressure on myself to schedule reviews for games I didn’t feel like finishing, which is what I…

I’m glad that you enjoyed my tags! I very much enjoyed yours as well. As far as the Breaking Point goes, I acknowledge what you’re saying about 3x05 and I agree with it, but also (from my recollection anyway, it’s been a while since I rewatched) 3x05 was more of Billy attempting to make a (for lack of a better term) professional connection with Flint. Going like “hey, can we talk strategy? because I’m not sure about this…” and obviously there’s not NOTHING personal in that request or in Flint shutting it down, and I think that was also a very pivotal moment, but Billy tried the professional connection thing again with Flint in 4x01, so he hadn’t completely lost hope in that department yet. What makes me view 3x03 as The Moment is that it was the last time that Billy tried to connect with Flint in a very personal and vulnerable way - attempting to check in on him emotionally - and to have THAT shut down, I think, destroyed the potential for true reconciliation irreparably.

Haven’t really looked at it that way but you’re right, after 3x03 Billy very much tries to maintain a professional distance through all their interactions (even if he does it through gritted teeth). I singled out 3x05 to myself as more of a ‘last opportunity for Flint to get Billy on his side’ because he starts promoting Silver pretty quickly after this. And even though Billy still wants to use Flint’s talents and reputation to their advantage and goes along with him, he starts to separate himself from his Goal aka the Fall of the British Empire. So if 3x03 is him giving up on understanding Flint as a person, 3x05 is him doubting him as a leader because there’s a fundamental difference in how they see this War (for Billy it ends with liberating Nassau, for Flint it STARTS with liberating Nassau).

It’s hard to point to a single moment as the breaking point of this relationship because it’s THEM and because it was never really that good to begin with. It was less of a break and more of a gradual tear of a rope that was sprung up too tight. Chances are Flint could still reach an agreement with him even in s4 but that would require him to be very… un-Flint.
