#i suck because I don't play video games

[sirnica]

Perpetually late as always, I have a new obsession

[pheroyyay]

i have 2 confess sometimes i quite like dapg as an actual gaming channel because the sheer nonchalance and whimsy with which they approach every game they play makes me remember that actually you can play games however you want. and its okay because the point of them is to have fun and not to follow a certain set of rules that make you 'officially good'

Tumblr girlies do YOU want a show that has more than 12 episodes a season? That won't get cancelled next year? That has beautiful talented queer women? That you can overanalyze to your heart's content? That will make you laugh, cry, and tear your hair out? That's problematic in many ways but still worth watching and loving? That has decades of lore and history? That has symbols and motifs and imagery and sometimes even live organ music? Then perhaps what you want isn't a fictional show at all but the violent sport of hockey.

trying to finish as much as i can off playstation plus before letting my subscription end and one of those things was the bioshock infinite burial at sea dlc and oh my fucking god what an absolutely atrotrious experience. incredibly somehow worse than bioshock infinite (a game i hold no affection for) and may be one of the worst video game experiences i've ever had.

…How very interesting,such… knowledge.

{A message from Wilson Arch}

-----

Yoooo, guess who is having a birthday today. Me,obviously. :D

Oh, and Wilson too, I guess. If you wanna be THAT guy.

Remember when this video came out there were people who heard the voice at the end and thought the voice was either Sammy or the Ink Demon? Man, those were the days. However with all due respect, I'm glad neither case was right in the end lol.

On this day 5 years ago, "Unknown - April 14th" was posted on YouTube, which means it's been 5 damn years since we first heard from Wilson...

man, what a damn BABY MAN, am i right folks

It's interesting to think that even though it's been 5 years, we've only known who Wilson really is for 2 years now (or more appropriately, 1 year and 5 months of those 5 years). Of course, now, after BATDR was released, we know who he is and what his place is in the Bendy universe. But between April 1, 2019 and November 1, 2022, all we knew about him was that he…existed. He was someone - someone bad apparently - who sounded old and who would have some relevance in the plot of Dark Revival. And that's it. We had no name, no appearance, nothing. He was someone, but we didn't know who.

It's no wonder he was only referred to as "Unknown" by fans during these 3 and a half years.

In the end, I would say that this drawing is a mix of 2 things. The first being the result of an idea I've had for a while, which is basically making a drawing in relation to the original video/"unknown" tape, but this time with Wilson, since now we know it was recorded by him. Plus it's been 5 years since the original upload,5 years of Wilson. I think this would be the perfect time to do this.

And second, a strange kind of redux/homage/"final chapter" in this kind of "collection" of drawings I did between 2019 and 2022 all based on the idea of "the unknown weirdo from BATDR saying How Very Interesting Such Knowledge" and so on. All of them having other characters in mind in the role of the Unknown. And now, here I am, redoing this idea again, only with The Man Himself this time. The real Unknown. Now as the Known, so to speak.

Going back to what I said before, you can see this drawing as a kind of farewell to this particular idea that I've kind of repeated over the years, as I've now done it again only with Wilson this time. (Does this mean I'll never draw this concept/line of thought again? I mean, I assume so. But there's no guarantee I can't make something similar again down the line. Who knows what the future holds. We will see what happens in the next 5 years.)

But,yeah. 5 years of Such Knowledge™.

Have a good April Fools' Day.

(Also, there are still a few hours until the day ends where I live, so for me it's still April 1st, so yeah, this still counts)

The problem with AI art is NOT "now people will be able to make art without working for it!" The problem with AI art is that it steals parts of other people's art. But if AI art actually allowed people to create whatever original image is in their mind without stealing and making it so people don't have to spend hours every day of their entire lives honing a craft just to have some semblance of creative ability, that would be a good thing!

Disregard previous tags about not being able to play Baldur's Gate 3 until the 12th, my husband treats gift giving dates more as suggestions so he got it for me today. 🥰 I decided I'd limit myself to 2 hours a day because I have serious issues with time management, so.... 2h45 minutes in I'm really enjoying it. >_>

Tfw you miss your video game blorbos but you're too depressed to play or even interact with the content. 😕

[Image caption for original post: live-action ad of a preppily dressed young blonde woman in a spring green blouse with daisies, spring green jacket tied around her shoulders, and pink skirt, headband, and purse showing up with a plate of red gelatin dessert to a party with two gothily dressed young women. around her head, The Sims-style interaction bubbles read, clockwise from bottom left: "flee", "cry", "faint", "die", "show tattoo". Text in the bottom left corner reads as follows: "Popularity. One of five new reasons to live. A whole new generation is in your hands. Satisfy their social ambitions, or pursue less pretentious life goals like Romance, Family, Knowledge, and Fortune. The choice is up to you. Come to think of it, pretty much everything is. Take charge at eagames.com." End text.

Comment in @boggmann's addition by @tacticalannoyance reads: "I can't believe no one said it but IT IS GAY CULTURE BC YOU COULD GET GAY MARRIED AND EVERYTHING AND THAT WAS HUGE BC THIS SHIT WASN'T EVEN LEGAL FOR ALMOST TEN YEARS AFTERWARDS!!! The Sims let you how GAY with zero repercussions in game and it was so fucking NORMAL. People lost their shit over it. they still do. This game was out and added content from 2004-2008. This game is older than most legal rights for LGBTQ+ people in the entire world." End captions.]

More than ten years, in fact - Obergefell was 2015.

Also, in case anyone hasn't heard this story, a gay employee quietly implemented same-sex romantic interactions into the first The Sims game before it was shown to the public, and reportedly, a spontaneous kiss between two female Sims during a public stage demonstration pretty much cemented the fact that the game was going to feature gay content.

this sims 2 ad has like such deep gay energy to it. Like this feels like queer history to me
