#it was weird idk man

[furballfaggot]

just had a dream where there was a homebrew 3ds game (although it played exactly like a regular ds game) called Julie's Jewelbox that was deliberately made as a "creepy" game but without the tropes like "ooooh its hAUUUnteeeddd!!!!" or "jumpscare Here jumpscare There put another one in the Corner lots of Blood etc etc" and was the focus of many a horror-gaming youtuber at the time

there were segments where you had to watch a video on the top screen and then answer 4 mostly-related questions as you went along on the bottom screen, you had a pet you couldnt actually take care of (no button on the menu) but i think also couldnt die so they just deteriorated as you played, gamemodes and minigames that were entirely unfinished ("This feature is not implemented yet!") and just displayed broken models and sprites or fucked up backgrounds and shit, there were a lot of cameos from famous youtubers in the videos (first two i can remember are matpat and tom cardy) for like Zero Reason, and the music was all intentionally made to be just Stereotypically Creepy enough to be off-putting

the videos themselves were reminiscent of things like This House Has People In It, and they were done in the styles of the cameos. tom cardy got a music video, matpat specifically got a game theory live bit for some reason, etc. etc. and most of them involved the characters they played (fictional versions of themselves) just. quietly dying by the end. no fanfare, no jumpscare, no mourning. just dead! you couldnt return to the videos afterwards, would just claim that the feature wasnt implemented yet, and those characters wouldnt appear in any other videos

the pet i mentioned 3 decades ago would always be on the top screen in the menu, which youd be booted back to every time you finished something, and they would have an animation where they turn to look at you from the side of the screen where youd see their devolving condition in detail before it hard cut to them just sitting on the top screen doing some idle animations -- though notably they still looked like ass

all the ui and menus were pink. it was made to resemble a stereotypical "girls game" through and through. julie herself was a woman with brown hair in a ponytail with a purple shirt on. which is strikingly similar to my fashion sense around the time the look and vibes of the game as advertised in a world where it was a normal ds game would have sold me on it actually. funny how that works! anyways julie was barely present in the game itself but she sure as hell had voice lines and these voice lines would pop in at various points to comment on things

i remember 2 distinct moments that, of all things, the in-game keyboards were fucked. you couldnt type with the 3ds keyboard so you had to use the in-game ones, but one of them had the strangest letter inputs and the other had the strangest way of ordering the letters. ill doodle em when ive got time but i assure you it was not fun

when i woke up i was convinced it was real for like a solid 30 seconds. it is not

okay is she being actually immature or is it just a woman over 30 expressing a human experience you find to be immature.

like yeah. at certain ages... let shit go. im not defending the real immature shit. im not defending the karen you're picturing. i worked in retail i hate those people too. (once somebody got mad at me because she didn't like how our winter window decor was a snowman smoking a pipe. i wish i was joking).

but men at 57 will write books about how 17 year old girls are soooo sexy. they will invent worlds where women have to be naked for "armor reasons." they will write songs that treat women as objects. people rush to defend them. meanwhile a woman at 35 will be like "heartbreak is hard, actually" or "i feel betrayed by a friend" or "i am struggling with something emotionally." immediately people will say stuff like this woman is 35 by the way. by the way this woman is SO OLD to be experiencing this. BY THE WAY.

im 31, almost 32. the other day a poet was blasted online because at her "big age", she had written a poem about feeling unloved. top comment was "this woman is 29 by the way." this woman is too old to still be useful, by the way. she has to behave better . maybe if she was a good wife and mother she could stop existing loudly, and the story could continue on without her. this woman has served her purpose, by the way. she's so cringe, by the way. at 29 - so old! - she still hasn't figured out that her existence should be one of shame.

How did y’all choose your names? Was it just trial and error?

had some time to think and watch people watch the minecraft movie trailer, and i think I've realized my main gripe with it. out of all the directions they could have chosen, why did they go with the one they did???

like. okay. i watched both phil and mumbo watch the trailer who had very different and opposite thoughts. i think mumbo was right in that it seems like it's trying to be an absurd, camp, and silly movie that makes fun of itself. the style (how ever mismatched) leans into that and the humor seems to go in that direction. and I think for what it's trying to be (camp, absurd, making fun of itself), it will probably be an okay movie! the focus won't be on minecraft, it will be on the minecraft world, if that makes sense. the look and mechanics over the feel and vibe.

on the other hand. i hate that they chose this direction. minecraft is such a game of stories, of the hidden stories, of what you make of the mysterious and wonderful world around you. you have the end poem. you have the music. you ha e the ruins. you have new expiernces and wonder and fear. yes it's a big world, but it also feels small. it's just you! in this abandoned and recovering world. and it loves you.

it just feels like that whole aspect of the game doesn't matter here. it's just the surface level appearance, mechanics, and look of the game. it honestly feels more like minecraft legends than normal minecraft, but even then it's missing the whimsy of legends.

yes it looks bad. yes it has like four different art styles. I think for what they're trying to do it will be Okay at best. but what it could've been. that's the real loss. It could've been about nostalgia. about love. about the universe. about making your own world with your own hands. about the quiet emptiness left behind you now have to live in. those raw experiences that won't be considered. whatever

"id let the world burn for you"

"I'd kill for you"

"id die for you"

"I'd sacrifice the world for you"

BORING!

Yawn snore snore. Honk shoo honk shoo.

I got twelve other guys ready to that for me. You already do that. You already destroy the world I would just happen to be there while you did.

The real question is.

Would you save the world for me?

Would you put aside your hatred for humanity and put my love for it Infront? Would you save the world because I love the world? Would you stop killing because I hate killing? Would you find a way to live because I want you alive?

Death and destruction are easy as hell. Do you know how fucking easy it is to kill someone? To blow up a building? Shure security is in the way but if it wasn't there it would be easy as hell.

You'd do the basics Shure. But would you do the hard thing and save the world because I asked you to?

Would you push aside your hatred of everyone but me because I asked you to nicely?

Would you?

kacchan telling izuku that his body moved on his own is fucking crazy. like not only did kacchan remember izuku saying that all the way back from the sludge-villain incident but he’s also confirming that izuku’s crazy, boarder-line suicidal intensity is a two way street. it’s not just izuku who is insane about kacchan it’s mutual insanity. kacchan’s body moved on its own. he was helpless but to throw himself into the line of fire when he saw izuku was in danger. he didn’t think about it. he didn’t choose to do it. he didn’t have a choice. it was as if izuku was a piece of his own soul. katsuki instinctually needed to protect him above all else, even at the cost of his own life
