All of act two in the original game: I sleep

Whatever’s going to be in this haunted house: real shit

[causalityparadoxes]

Is it considered immoral to bring someone back from the brink of death just so you can slowly cut bits of their body off until nothings left? Asking for a friend.

🔥 for dragon age?

not even sure whats considered unpopular anymore lmaoooo so lemme just try to get my thoughts together, sorry if its incoherent

1. dragon age 2 is better than inquisition, im aware of technical issues da2 has but it had a 18 month development window and it excelled with the time limit, i literally do not give a fuck about reused assets or that the game has poor level design or even that its ugly, that shit does not matter to me, it has personality and charm that inquisition lacks. hawke was way more customizable than the inquisitor who may be prettier but has the personality similar to that of wet cardboard.

2. they need to stop reusing characters from game to game. i dont read the books or the comics so i have no thoughts on that aspect. but anyways! hawke showing up in da3 pissed me off, i always leave them in the fade. not entirely sure if its a bug or a feature but hawke seems to always, in my playthroughs, hate magic/mages even if i played a mage (or a blood mage! or supported anders!). i find it funny that BW said "oh we cant have the hero of ferelden because the PC is too customizable, we'd piss off fans" and...then they drop hawke in. another side to this is: changing characters designs. im not a purist, i think morrigan and leliana look great, it as if it the changes were made to just update their looks while acknowledging their original designs/appearances. in contrast, look at alistair: lighter hair, lighter skin tone with da2 and da3. the same thing happened to merrill (this is less noticeable, origins had notoriously bad lighting that had a tendency to wash everything out) theres just something really off about this. slightly related: the qunari designs in da2 were a massive downgrade from origins

3. Everyone that writes/draws fenris/anders, fenris/danarius, and slave kink can go to hell.

4. templars are really inexcusable and i dont understand pro-templar fans. how many times does dragon age have to go over the abuses in the circle? like its also really confusing that bioware is trying to angle for this mage versus templar debate in each game too, its not working you just made me a pro-mage stan. on a way more serious note: this is a video game debate and templar fans specifically have made absurd efforts to harass mage fans, like calm down

5. anyone who makes mods to whitewash characters or to make female characters "prettier/more womanly" can go to hell too

6. bioware in general has had a history with racism, orientalism (jade empire, remember?), homophobia and transphobia in their writings. i wish fans would recognize that criticisms of biowares bigotry does not exist in a vacuum/unique to dragon age specifically nor is any of it "a mistake" or whatever flimsy excuse we are using now. this is decades of a pattern across however big their (everchanging) writing team is, this is why gamers ask that (big) companies hire sensitivity readers/editors.

7. man, this is NITPICKING: but when i noticed it i couldnt stop thinking about it but the spiders are going through something, each game they get fatter and rounder, in da4 theyre just going to be orbs, like wheres the menace in that? they look dumb as shit in da3.

the darkspawn are also losing their charm for looking fucked up. i thought the despair demons were a nice welcome but overall i havent been really feeling the creature design. i liked how some of the red templars LOOKED, but found their attacks/behaviors more annoying than anything. unlike origins and 2 (broodmother, the mother, the archetect, the harvester) , there just wasnt anything that really jumped out at me, except maybe the envy demon

8. was also not a fan of the combat in da3 (or da2), i found it more entertaining to play in origins than either game. da3 also....its like we make jokes about the bears and dragons but its really just a slog fest with a lot of the enemies, the limited customization w the player character is really hurting the actual gameplay. doesnt matter what difficulty im on in da2 and da3, the combat is easy, just time consuming.

modding morrowind. tell me your thoughts

so im getting a new gaming laptop in two days to replace my 8+ year old trusty laptop that has gotten me through all of highschool and college, but the framrate onliterally any game is atrocious and my gf convinced me to get a computer that is actually able to play games.

So here’s the list of mods ill be adding to morrowind for a new playthrough. please tell me your thoughts on them, or suggest your favorites! under a cut to not clog dashboards :)

basics:

 morrowind code patch

patch for purists

MGE XE

massive(?) mods:

tamriel rebuilt

morrowind enhanced overhaul The setup for this seems complicated, so i wonder if it will be worth it? im thinking of not using this one. if anyone has used it then tell me your thoughts.

LGNPC

Smaller mods:

Settled Jiub

the publicans

a strange plant

graphic herbalism the files on this one kind of confuse me. they have specific files up for tamriel rebuilt. do i need to only download the tamriel rebuilt add on? or do i need to do this in addition to the core files? i would assume in addition to...

better bodies, better heads, original elven eyes for better heads

better clothes official version, more better clothes vol I

aquatic argonians this is a very new mod but id love to have the waterbreathing spell automatically work. if the code patch fixes that then i wont bother downloading this

the guar whisperer i am extremely excited about this mod lol

im also gonna be downloading mlox to make sure i load up everything in the best order. i think i will download wyremash as a mod organizer, but a bunch of stuff i looked up said that you can mod morrowind without a mod organizer, but having one helps when there is a glitch because of two interfering mods? i dont know, any advice would be helpful though. tell me your fave morrowind mods!

[danganronpedits-archived]

hiya! i love the way you do kin matchups so i would like to request one. danganronpa and its fangames please owo im your friendly neighborhood gremlin with a love for mischief. i like purposefully annoying and pissing people of bc its funny. i used to be a malicious jerk, but have been taking steps to be a better person. despite being extroverted and friendly, i dont get attached to others easily. oh also i love birds and fairgrounds/circuses. thank you, knock yourself out

ooh... haha, you sound really different from a lot of the anons i’ve gotten! thank you so much for requesting(and for the compliment ^^;), this was veery fun to plan out! hope you enjoy it :)!

from danganronpa, i first match you with...

kokichi ouma!

just to start off- that owo???? i just??? you mean to tell me that kokichi WOULDN’T use that? starting off, both of you are total gremlins. ingame, i mean, spoilers and whatnot, but kokichi literally runs a gang based around mischief and pranks. the fact that his gang is dedicated to that and only that i feel like is something else you have in common- while kokichi ingame can definitely be malicious, this is likely because, well, it’s a killing game. more specifically, one that basically no one trusts until the first murder happens and everything is suddenly real. i’m not trying to excuse his actions in it, but i feel like if he had that same personality of his outside of the game, there would be less of a need to be so distrustful and harsh towards others- after all, the outside world is intimidating and threatening, but there’s a lot more places to run to if someone wants to kill you, rather than in one single academy. sorry, i kind of went off on a tangent!

the two of you are rather extroverted, and while he’s not exactly friendly, he has this demeanor that implies that he’s going to be a sweet, adorable little guy. not saying that that’s you, but you know! the two of you seem very energetic, at least from your typing style, though that may not translate into real life. he loves getting on other people’s nerves for his own entertainment, ie kiibo. i would also say that he doesn’t get very close to others easily, as we see with both the cast of the killing game. plus, this is more theorising, as kokichi is strongly implied to be an orphan, that’s also something that causes trust issues/trouble getting close to people in victims of this, as, well, they weren’t able to be taught those kinds of bonds. again, i’m not saying that you’re an orphan, but that’s something the two of you are very likely to have in common. finally, i mean, dice has a clown aesthetic. he definitely likes fairgrounds/circuses.

from danganronpa another, i match you with...

satsuki iranami!

satsuki is definitely one that jumped to my mind right away. quick one, she’s literally the ultimate clown- she loves circuses! plus, the owo. how can i resist pointing it out. while i wouldn’t say she intentionally bothers others for the sake of comedy, it’s more like... a lot of her comedy can come off as annoying occasionally, just because it’s so clownlike,(who would’ve guessed, haha) which is such a niche art in my opinion. i think both of you are very energetic and extroverted, as well as friendly, but neither of you seem to get particularly attached to the people around you- at the least, satsuki doesn’t seem to express it. you both do seem extroverted and friendly, but i think that lack of attachment to people can make you seem insensitive or rude at times, as it’s a bit harder for satsuki to be personal and genuine with someone. i wouldn’t be surprised if you share that with her.

satsuki, being a clown, is definitely someone who i think would have a love for mischief- i kind of teeter totter between the headcanon that she can appreciate all kinds of performance and comedy, versus her being like... an entertainment purist that only sees clownery as the valid kind. but regardless, a lot of the circus aesthetic is based around mischief and playing with people’s perceptions, so she seems like she’d have a fondness for mischief too! satsuki also, just from her talking about her inferiority with her siblings, could be someone i see as having more roughness or rudeness thanks to that insecurity. that’s just a headcanon, as we don’t know too much of her past from my knowledge, but it doesn’t seem too unlikely. obviously, she’s a better person now/she always has been the person we see ingame, so we don’t know exactly. linuj feed us more satsuki info 2k20

from super danganronpa another 2, i match you with...

hibiki otonokoji!

hibiki and kotoko were really hard for me to pick from between these two, but as you can see, the former won out! hibiki Has The Gremlin EnergyTM, in my eyes, and she does use... the cursed owo. while i wouldn’t exactly say hibiki’s one for mischief, she does take on a form of that- her half-jokingly picking on people is what i’d consider to be this. some of these comments do come from malice, as she has her own insecurities that she hasn’t quite worked through yet. i definitely don’t blame her for having these, and if you relate to her i don’t blame you for having them, as there are several good reasons as to why she’s been held back. however, we see ingame that she does have a lot of potential to grow, like how you’ve talked about becoming a better person that’s less driven by just rudeness. in fact, she can become rather kind to other people- of course, her efforts and growth are cut off, but still...

hibiki does enjoy, at least at the beginning of the game, picking on people and bothering them. i’d say that this is for a mix of both her amusement, and as a defense mechanism. her sister has likely caused her trust issues, which makes it harder for her to really get close to people. after all, we see exactly this ingame. setsuka, and i suppose her sister, are really the only people that she’s able to trust at first, despite having a cheery and extroverted demeanor. i think that she does have a lot of potential to trust others and be open, but this potential tends to get stifled by her environment. also, finally, we don’t really know her thoughts on a lot of her hobbies/interests i don’t think? but like, birds sing, and she’s a vocalist. maybe there’s a connection there?

-

it’s time for minor matchups! however, i’ve specially noted hiyoko saionji for someone that you’d remind me of strongly in the past. otherwise, from danganronpa, you somewhat remind me of kotoko utsugi, genocider syo(not too much of toko), and miu iruma! and also, you remind me a tad of monaca towa. from the danganronpa another series, you remind me of setsuka chiebukuro!

gah,, i feel like that was really long haha. hopefully it was alright, though! please remember that you know best, anon, and that if you’d like anything in this post changed, please let me know! (also, requests are open again!)
