i could write a 100 page essay about what a fucking masterpiece warframe is. i will write many words in the tags. please readem if you want my 'tism.
#ive been playing on and off since 2019 but its only recently when i dumped destiny 2 (probably for good) and picked it up#to fill the grind-shaped hole in my heart#that i have uncovered just how FUCKING INCREDIBLE warframe is#everything about it makes me incredibly autistic#from its masterful utilization of an incredibly styled and individual soundtrack full of absolute bangers#to its seemingly unique understanding of how and why an MMO is special to and because of its players#and its truly special story- a uniquely human take on the “post-ruin scifi” tale#it knows exactly how and when to yank on your heart to make you weep like a baby#and it knows exactly when you're going to get angry and want vengeance#and it knows when to let you let loose and unleash hell#SPOILERS FOR THE NEW WAR AHEAD#IF YOU THINK YOU COULD PLAY THE GAME PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO#SPOILER WARNING#i think the narmer corruption of fortuna was genuinely one of the most gutpunchingly horrible moments ive ever experienced in a video game#i started playing when fortuna was already in the game but the story of fortuna and vox solaris was really what made warframe stand out 2 m#i would drop into the orb vallis as gauss and dash around doing bounties and fishing and mining because i really loved everything about#fortuna and wanted to spend as much time there as possible#for me vox solaris was my proudest achievement (in warframe.) to say “i helped that! i did that!” was an incredibly good feeling#the story really spoke to me on a deeper level#and vox solaris has always been my favorite faction as a result#so to do absolutely everything that i could#to lift together with my tenno brothers and sisters and yet STILL fail?#and to have it rubbed in my face by the corruption of the greatest shining pillar of hope in the warframe universe?#felt like i got kicked in the stomach#i felt sad and angry. but most of all i was DRIVEN.#which is GOOD. because RARELY does a video game present you the “you lost” scenario and have it feel not only satisfyingly painful#but MOTIVATING.#my only complaint with the new war is that i didnt get to hack ballas to pieces by myself#i had real flashbacks to running around helping people as gauss while approaching the final boss with erra#and to step onto the ballas arena as gauss prime. i nearly came from the narrative significance

I will not go out of my way to lose body form and here’s why
I have never laughed harder at myself or the game than from this sequence of events:
put down blue soul sign in 3-2, because on this character I always will.  I’m a chronic roleplayer and she’s a helper.  Yes, even knowing the risks in Latria.
get Monk’d, predictably
host dies to enemies on stairs as soon as I load in
return to world in body form, retreat into prior boss arena to look up whether or not I have lost character tendency (world tendency can be whatever it ends up being organically but this character is meant to lean towards lighter tendency. again, chronic roleplayer).  Find out death to enemy mob doesn’t affect CT.  Breathe sigh of relief, continue towards Maneater
IMMEDIATELY INVADED AFTER DESCENDING THAT FIRST FLIGHT OF STEPS, probably by someone trying to get Monk’d.
dodge roll off a ledge in the fight, losing body form just as quickly
I love this game.  I love multiplayer and refuse to lock myself out of it.  I hope my invader got a good laugh, because I sure did

Hello!
Welcome to Danganronpa: Hires & Havoc, an AU of Toontown: Corporate Clash based on the Danganronpa series!
This will be a post to get acquainted with how this AU will work!
Tumblr media
Danganronpa: Hires & Havoc, or H&H for short, is a multi-media webcomic! Pages will be released at easiest convenience for the creator, but will likely be kept as consistent as they possibly can!
What is Danganronpa? For those who are unfamiliar, Danganronpa is a murder mystery game! In short, a character will be killed, and all the other characters will investigate and then debate in a trial to out the killer (referred to as the 'blackened' ingame)! If they correctly out the killer, then the killer will be punished via execution. If they are incorrect, then they are all punished. Typically, Danganronpa is split into 6 chapters and a prologue, with a murder and trial happening every chapter. This is the most basic rundown, but the nitty gritty details will be explained in the story itself!
As a disclaimer, the deaths will likely be gruesome, and viewer discretion is advised. Despite the fact that Corporate Clash is family friendly, this AU will not be due to the emphasis on murders. It will not stray too far into the edgy or shock value category, but it may be uneasy to go through.
What is Toontown: Corporate Clash? For those unaware, Toontown: Corporate Clash (or TTCC) is a free MMO based on Disney's long-gone Toontown Online. Make a Toon, and stop the Cogs from taking over Toontown! The characters in this fangan are lifted from Corporate Clash and placed into a Danganronpa scenario.
H&H is unaffiliated with Toontown: Corporate Clash, and may not directly reflect canon, as H&H was being written, Corporate Clash stated that there will be a rewrite in the works.
One last thing! If your favorite characters end up being killed off, we apologize! H&H has been in the works for well over a year as of posting this, and everything was planned in advance! Every character in the game is likely someone's favorite, so practically nobody is safe. We hope you enjoy regardless! Thank you for reading!

It weirded me out during Stormblood when NPCs mentioned your "adventuring comrades" when talking about an upcoming dungeon or trial in the main scenario, it was like they knew they were in an MMO. Very meta.
So anyway I drew some Final Fantasy XIV frogs.

Hi, I've been seeing you post a lot of FFXIV stuff, and I've been kind of interested in trying it for a long while but am absolutely broke. Do you think it's worth getting into even if it's just the free trial version?
Omg yes!! The free trial honestly has a LOT in it, it takes you through the base game (A Realm Reborn) and the first two expansions (Heavensward and Stormblood, the latter of which is my favorite in the whole storyline), which goes up to level 70. You have a few limitations on the free trial, such as being unable to send private messages or join free companies (guilds, basically), but you can still party up with people and fully engage with the story and gameplay! They also have made it now where if you want to have a solo experience, the main scenario has support for partying with a group of NPCs instead of other players too, though there are a few parts where you'll need to play with real people. But I might be presuming too much, maybe you like the social aspect of MMOs :D
The character customization is really nice! There are a bunch of different races to play as, though sadly two of them will be locked behind a paid subscription (viera, which are bunny-people, and hrothgar, which are like a lion anthro race), but all the others are available on the free trial. I love making OCs in it, it's a lot of fun! I'm really fond of roegadyn, which are giants basically, and elezen, which are elves but if the elves were weird gangly pointy things. There's also cat and lizard kemonomimi (miqo'te and au ra respectively), chibis as the smallfolk race (lalafells), and stock standard humans in two varieties (midlander and highlander hyurs, one is like a normal human and the other are like bodybuilders). I'm probably forgetting something but.... Yeah!
The story is really good... ✪ ω ✪ Like extremely good!! I have been a fan of Final Fantasy for my whole life and not really ever much for multiplayer games, but FFXIV's story grabs hold of you in a way that a single player rpg does!! It's amazing! I've played it on and off since the ps3 beta of the game a decade ago, it's really special to me :3
I might be biased because I have like, nearly 12000 hours logged of playtime but.. yeah I think it's worth getting into ahaha
If you had specific questions about it I'd be glad to answer! I'm honestly kind of surprised to get an ask like this since I have been posting my art from ffxiv for the last few years, but I'm assuming you followed me for something else since I draw a variety of things! But always glad to share the gospel about this beloved game ahaha

"Talking to GamesRadar+, creative director Rebecca Ford said she's "always wanted to put some type of romance system into Warframe," but added "there was never an appropriate scenario to do it.""
Warframe fuckers everywhere yelling "COWARD!"
jk I would never disrespect Rebb like that

ESO (along with probably other MMOs) has this enemy aggro system where mobs aggroed onto you will follow you right up until the very edge of the zone... but if you hit them at all while they're far away from their spawn point, they instantly realize that they don't want that smoke, sheath their weapons, do a 180, and start sprinting back home. which is obviously very frustrating in a lot of scenarios but is admittedly kind of funny when like
>try to leave a zone
>get 90% through the door opening animation only to be yanked out of the black screen by a trash mob slapping your ass for 100 damage
>turn around, deal half their health bar with a single cast of your spammable
>"hm. on second thought, never mind."
>leaves

Forgive me but what is MSQ?
Ah, sorry @skynapple! It's a term used a lot in MMO games, but MSQ = Main Scenario Quests. In this sense I'm basically I'm referring to the Story~
I highly suggest doing the Main Story [Long Awaited Revelry] first to unlock Sylus at 1-8 before pulling making any wishes in the Wish Pools or Galaxy Explorer. That way you'll unlock his [With Him] section (Love Timeline/About Him) to start gaining affinity points from any of the new memories you obtain!
Tumblr media
[Long-Awaited Revelry] will be available after the update on July 15th. They also mentioned that you can enter [Long-Awaited Reverly] after completing Main Story [Under Deepspace] 2-15. No need to complete all previous stages.

On the Matter of “Lonely Fun”
I do not enjoy prep.
I had a conversation with Navi the other day and many things were discussed regarding Trad gameplay, OSR stuff, dungeon crawling, and the varying imbalance between the GM and player roles in those games. Navi explained that she views most of those older trad games as, to a greater or lesser extent, board-games in which you try to face greater and greater perils while expending the fewest resources possible. She misses a little bit of the granularity in the tactical plastic-pushing sense of dungeon-crawling.
I’ll admit I got a little caustic. “Of course you do. You weren’t the one doing the homework.” She showed up and got to passively consume. The AI had already set up all the situations and all that was left was to make interesting choices and see how the situations resolved.
I don’t want to put on that mantle of wounded pride, the one so common among the legions of “forever DMs.” No one’s forcing anyone into the service side of the weirdly-fraught master and servant relationship that is D&D. Plenty of power-bottoms in the scene, for sure; just absolutely over-the-moon to make sure everyone has a good time week after week, whose psychological reward is that their friends at the table were excited to experience the story they’d crafted.
Don’t @ me that you’re the big D at your table because you’re sitting behind the screen and deciding matters of life and death for your party, because the same has been said about healers in MMOs. You are in the service industry, friend. It’s why you’ve got homework before every game.
I do not enjoy that prep. Mostly, it rankles that only one person at a table of four, five, six functioning brains is the only one who gets saddled with the lonely fun in a lot of these games. Because, I’ll happily admit that it can indeed be lonely fun. Honestly, the problem is that I, being a writer, have a tendency to vanish over the edge of the deep end where prep and world building and scenario design and customized content and everything are concerned.
Navi, for all of her talk of occasionally missing the D&D-esque dungeoncrawling adventure days will be the first to tell me that she does not miss the days when I was running D&D for her. Because I put way too many hours in. Not because I had to. Not because the game was complex or difficult, not because the game required it of me, but because it didn’t fight me if I did. Honestly, the game was such a bag of blanks that I could spend as much time as I liked filling them in and if anything, the game only got better. And so I did. And the game was…y’know fine. Great. The table was awesome. So long as I didn’t expect anything of them.
The players would show up and play through the encounters, ooh and ahh at all the right places, and tell me they had a good time. And that was enough for a while. But man, the energy only goes one way in that kind of game. I spend my time daydreaming and writing and such, and they appreciate it. Then wonder what happens next week. No real agency or direction, just passive recipients.
I can’t do that anymore. So I tend to play games that treat prep with the same disdain I do. Or I write some World Anchors when I pitch an OSR game. I set the timer and spend no more than ten minutes on the steady state world and then go. I don’t prep, I play.
I prefer to get my board game-y combat bits from board games. They don’t require as much set-up. And typically the other players help.

this is mostly just goofy really but a fun way to conceptualize a “soul” in xiv would be something like the player behind the character. so imagine that cahciua and such retain the shape and history of the character known as “Cahciua” and anyone can play the part as the soul. normally they’re inextricable, an account dies with the player, but in this specific scenario people are borrowing accounts all over the place because you can’t make new ones anymore or something. living memory feels a little like some dying mmo to me where a bunch of people are logged into characters that aren’t quite theirs. but still are those characters nonetheless the same way I could give my account details to someone and all of gourd’s character information and so “gourd” would continue to exist after i died. Son you have inherited my mmorpg character and 5 dollars
