Playing 3DS games after having seen the overall fandom response to release and long-term impact and the way it's looked back on and such is... bizarre, honestly? Like, maybe it's just because we got our introduction to gaming in the 3DS era, but it's incredibly strange to know that games we knew and loved and would have considered relatively mainstream just... didn't stick in people's minds.
Like, take the Gen 6 Pokemon games. Those were great games! One of the single things about X/Y/OR/AS that we don't see people talking about but that stuck in our mind was how the developers made an effort to make it so that every single Pokemon in the games prior was spread between just those four games! We remember that just the sheer variety of potential Pokemon available was enough to get us a start into challenge runs simply by virtue of how much variety could be added to a playthrough by the sheer amount of potential on offer!
We remember spending hours just... hunting around the region to figure out where those last Pokemon we needed to fill the 'dex were, wandering around to try and find Hidden Ability pokemon from Horde battles, getting to actually interact with our Pokemon in Pokemon Amie.
Yeah, there were more obscure games out there, and yeah, they impacted us as well - Pocket Card Jockey stands out in this regard, as an extremely fun game that we're pretty sure was played by maybe three people, maximum, but it's not quite the same. These were games that we played ourself! These were games we saw other people playing, that we played with people over the internet, that felt like they were well-known! We were under the impression that these were mainstream interests, not Niche! it feels... singularly bizarre to realize that, for the majority of people out there, this game was a forgettable disappointment.

I wouldn't say I think 'Alpha and Omega' is good but I do often think the first movie (I'm not touching the sequels) is a fun occasional watch just for how rooted in 2000s wolfaboo vibes it is, very nostalgic for me personally

Back in my day (as if I'm old) crackship meant two characters from different works... why is it now used as a pejorative term for ships you don't like / understand?

Finally getting around to listening to Sabrina Carpenter's new album and damn this is her best album yet and as a long time fan of hers since her GMW days I'm so glad she's getting the mainstream success that she deserves with both this and her last album "Emails I Can't Send" its been so awesome to see that all her hard work is finally paying off 😊😊
Some of my faves (aside from Espresso & Please Please Please of course lol) are definitely Slim Pickins' (please country radio make this a hit lol), Taste, Bed Chem, Good Graces & Juno 😊😊 but man Short N Sweet certainly lives by the title as its only nearly 40 minutes long but it's certainly worth the listen ❤️❤️

I wish there was more instances of Zizel being blatantly more antagonistic, but I think her detached way of viewing the characters in the story very interesting
She bets on Claire's happiness not because she's someone who she cares about on an emotional level, but because she's fascinated with her misfortune. She wants to see an outcome where she wins because it would be against the script written for her. Zizel is fascinated with humans, acts out being a human herself, and tries to mold the story based off her own misguided understandings. Unlike Wilardo, she holds no sentimental feelings towards people. She follows her own whims based on how much they entertain her.
So while she does show a level of understanding towards human struggles, there is no respect for it. She's like the reader in a way. Because her feelings only amount to wanting to see a nicely wrapped up ending after a great struggle. She's detached, she doesn't need to grow or apply herself in the narrative, she can sit back and watch them all struggle on their own. She's just a witness to the story unfolding.

yknow i was, for a while, really not into almost any of the characters in motr. i mean, i ended up liking almost all of them, because theyre interesting and well-written, but none of them are like. characters i would want to ROMANCE, yknow? none of them are my type
anyway turns out there IS one character in the game thats my type, and its Barqujin. i love her so much. wife city. what a dream.
every time i play a dating sim i forget the fact that im only interested in characters who hate me. dont look into that 😭

personally not the biggest fan of field trip but I do think it is so funny that the whole episode is mulder and scully tripping out of their minds and only realizing it when people start agreeing with them

Looking at all the games I never got to play over the years simply due to poverty sucks. I've never played a pokemon game. The only Mario game I ever touched was Mario cart and that was at a friend's house. I had no clue how to make a Club penguin account simply because no one would teach me. And I'll never get to experience most of these games because everything is too expensive or it's too late.
This isn't ment to undermine more serious problems. I was homeless as a kid so I know the struggles, but it really dose suck that kids out there will feel alienated because they can't enjoy the things other kids do. It's heartbreaking...

US diplomat: "Okay, so you bought some of Alaska's land from Russia, okay, okay. But...your people live on the other side of the world, and, let's be real here, we're too racist to respect you as equals. Why should we honour your deal with the Russian Empire when we can just...waltz in and annex your little home away from home?"
Tsalal Alaskan colonist leader: "Good question! Do you see this missile, this one right here, bigger than a train? Its warhead is filled with several tons of fuel-air explosives. Now, I'm not saying that we have a dozen of these things stocked on ships ready to fire at any given moment and a bunch of fanatical suicide pilots ready to fly them ludicrous distances into your nearest population centers...
"But I'm not not saying that."

All faith restored! Just finished Rift War. It has a excellent plot, good art(Paul Grist my beloved) and accurate characterisation. The pacing was done well and I could even follow when characters were on different timelines! It had (for the most part bc of course it was one whole story) each comic part focusing on a different Rift related shenanigan which I enjoyed. A good, predictable enough*, plot twist and plenty tension to keep you happy. All in all would definitely recommend if you're wanting to buy some EU this is a good start. (It is a full team story have no clue why the compiled graphic novel has only Ianto, Jack and Gwen on the cover...)
