#games i failed to finish

[gaygamer]

I sadly failed to finish a whopping seven games in 2022. That may sound silly, but I rarely walk away from games before “beating” them--even ones I dislike.

Which games am I talking about here?

13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim

Fuga: Melodies of Steel

Live A Live

Nora and the Time Studio

SaGa 2 Hihō Densetsu: Goddess of Destiny

Shin Chan: Me and the Professor on Summer Vacation

Skyrim

To hear why I failed to finish these games as well as whether I plan to return to them in 2023, read my new blog post.

Super Mario RPG is inspiring me !~

I was sad when I learned I accidentally skipped Booster's fight…

But I mean, the cake one was pretty funny so it’s okay-

there's this really deep belief in me that says I can't post anything related to ouro anywhere anymore & I hate it & I hate it & I hate it. I have so much !! to say :(

I don't have the time at the moment to write a full essay but someone should definitely remind me to write a post later on the phenomenon that is Ratio's assholery being sanded away by well-meaning fans.

In a quest to fight against the "Ratio is a condescending jerk" stereotype from Ratio haters, pro-Ratio fans have now swung too far the other way, making him into a saint who loves everyone, isn't disdainful of failure, and believes every single person can equally pull themselves up out of mediocrity.

None of those things are actually true based on the game itself, where Ratio is, in fact, a judgmental person who struggles to accept the mundanity of those around him, believes in an educational elite, and can be exceptionally condescending, whether he means it or not.

He's a flawed character. His own flaws are absolutely central to his character, in fact. And yet none of his flaws preclude him from being meaningful, nuanced, and likeable.

It's okay that he's not actually that nice.

In defending a character from one extreme ("he's a bad person"), we don't have to jump all the way to the other side ("he's an angel").

He can be a little bit of a dick and still be a great character, promise.

please do a fic with lestappen+54 after seeing max and daniel leave the paddock together and then take a helicopter

This took a month+ but good news! It’s literally 7k.

have you ever wondered what would happen if anybody, nowhere and the devil in me had a baby? and it was lestappen? with smut? that’s what this is in my brain. enjoy, or something. and happy 'he wins in monza' to charles leclerc and all of you too ofc.

send me a ship and a number and i will write a kiss

54. out of envy or jealousy | lestappen | 6.9k

Charles is crying again. Over an hour out from the chequered flag by his measure, Max’s palms are on both of his cheeks, smudging tears out from under his eyelashes as he kisses Charles over and over. They’re still in their race suits, and the navy blue under Charles’ fingers makes the whole thing sweeter, for once.

“I love you,” Charles says, when he can get a word in, “I love this day, I love Monaco.”

“It’s good,” Max says, and his eyes look nearly as shiny as Charles imagines his own must, “we love you back, of course.”

Later, after they’re both sweaty and fucked-out and a tad drunk, still, he’ll ask with a bit of cheek if this isn’t Max’s favorite Monaco Grand Prix to date. Max will look up at him, chin propped just below Charles’ navel, and say “Monaco has always been quite good to the people I love.” Victory is fresh in his veins and Max has won Monaco twice, so Charles won’t think anything of it. He’ll drag Max up until they’re pressed together, sticky as they are, and he’ll fall asleep thinking of his own body breaking the surface of the water in Monaco, and it will never occur to him to consider anybody else’s.

Read the rest on ao3!

[halflifebutawesome]

something I’ve only recently just realized and have been thinking about a lot is that like. Even if Gordon didn’t cause the resonance cascade, he probably would’ve been sent to Xen anyways . Probably to his death

[sapphic-outlaw]

Last chapter. Ugh.

[misteriouschum]

unfinished (they were going to hold a banner)

[icewindandboringhorror]

boy in silly sitting positions compilation

[wizardsix]

about 30 hours into veilguard and while I have an essay worth of my problems w the game and how this is absolutely not ten year's worth of developing I do want to say what I do like. the maps (visuals/progression/exploration), combat, and the companions (only five of them. neve and taash annoy me and I would absolutely not recruit them if this game didn't force you to)... overall it's all right on its own but it's no dragon age game.

[vynnyal]

Oh what the heck, chu chu lovely challenge 70 be upon ye

[fell-e]

Ok wait im curious what is this mouthwashing game

It's a game about dental hygiene! Teehee<3

Nah but srsly

It's a really interesting psychological horror game about five crew members stranded in space after their spaceship crashes (you can just TELL it's gonna be fun☺️💕)

The story is literally so tragic and gut-wrenching in a way that you'll think about it for weeks

Personally I just watched a playthrough, but I thinks it's like 12 dollars on Steam??? So idk whichever works for you ig

If you're gonna check the game out I should warn you that the game contains disturbing themes like body mutilation, s*icide, SA, etc
