truly videogames are such a good medium for stories where Something Is Wrong With Time... every game with a saving mechanic has a time travel function, be it acknowledged in universe or not. games can give you the option to experience pieces of story in a non-linear fashion or skip them entirely. time and timing is no longer bound to the confines of a movie's runtime or pages of a book...!
#yes of course this is inspired by isat and insertdisc5s Comics about this topic#but im currently playing the new prince of persia game and essentially Time Is Broken#you could even say SOMETHING IS ROTTING... FAILING........#and by playing i mean im Dying; Constantly#but im actually having so much fun. i never would've gotten it if it didn't have a demo so i could see if it's playable to me at all#and it's Challenging but i Can play it AND there's a lot of settings and accessibility features!!!!#so that if it does become too hard for me i can change that and that's a big comfort to me#this game is so pretty btw.

do you guys happen to know if Tron 2.0 is playable with a controller? not the steam version, the original on disc
#I'm not sure tbh#I was busy with prince of persia so I might have to relearn the 2.0 controls again#how people play on a keyboard remains a mystery to me

older brother gifted me the old family gamecube. i guess he hadn't booted it in a while because it is sadly malfunctioning. won't recognize any discs. i've done some research and the problem is at best something fixed using multiple specialized screwdrivers and a multimeter and at worst using multiple specialized screwdrivers and a soldering iron. so. i'm not fixing this gamecube.
#i did oh so very briefly get it to recognize prince of persia twice#the second time it played the opening cutscene and then got an error requiring it to power off#after which of course it no longer recognized the disc#i'll prob keep fiddling with it but my hopes are not high#j.txt

Im gonna say it right now before I go and fight the final boss.
If there is no scene of Sargon returning to Hadar I swear to fuck we are going to have an issue.
Hadar my beloved <3
#actually permanently switched my game to german when while playing the demo I realised that Hadar doesn't get a name in the english version#justice for english hadar#prince of persia the lost crown#sargon

List of Why The Fuck Didn't I Realise I Was Into Women Sooner #2: Catherine Zeta Jones's sword fight with Antonio Banderas in Mask of Zorro.
That part where her hair was hanging loose and wild and he'd cut the shoulder off her nightdress and she disarmed and advanced on him like an avenging Fury, eyes ablaze and breathing hard— fundamentally altered my brain chemistry. Haven't been the same person since.
#granted i only caught it on tv for the first time years after it was released#i think i was in my later teens#but i remember being struck dumb when CZJ appeared on screen#and then the fight scene#i don't even care that she's fucking Welsh and was essentially playing brownface like the entire rest of the white main cast#(although seriously fuck Banderas's white Spanish ass)#it was 1998 and good mother of fuck that was Elena#i was small and ace and very bi and had a heart boner. a heart-on if you will#i wonder whether i'd hate The Mummy so much if I had watched it before I knew it was racist af#although i think baby Rachel Weiz in the Mummy has a spot on the top ten of this list too#how did she look so completely different and elfish in the first movie. i had no idea it was the same woman in the rest of all her films#you could stick her on a music box. blow her away in the wind like a dandelion#although to be honest i have no excuse whatsoever for loving the Prince of Persia. Gemma Atherton. Jake Gyllenhaal. so hot#idk. maybe because they werent playing plunderers of a colonizer fever dream. the rituals are intricate#knee of huss#catherine zeta jones#mask of zorro#just bisexual things

I'm actually glad we live in a world where superpowers aren't the norm because personally I would've levelled cities over a inaccuracy in a movie.
#No because I was TWEAKING when I watched rush and it's pretty much like 65-ish percent accurate all things considered#Like yeah they glossed over François' death and the first race was wrong but like generally#Also hollywoodifacation etc etc#Yeah don't get me started on movies like prince of persia I'll kill myself#Jake Gyllenhaal known Persian man obviously#Played dastan without knowing a sliver of Persian#WHAT DO Y'ALL KNOW ABOUT DASTAN#I didn't cry over shahnameh for this#But seriously#Jake Gyllenhaal? Don't get me wrong love that guy BUT HE'S NOT DASTAN#anyway#kevtalks

Actually, I regret playing Forspoken. Because it hinted strongly towards a sequel, which will probably never see the light of day. 💀
#forspoken#like i am so infested in the characters and i have questions#shit man can't believe i got pulled by another prince of persia 2008 scenario uhuhuhuh never forget#BUT I CAN DREAM#and this causes me two write but........#uh i'm not a writer#i only have feels#mistress blabbling#mistress plays forspoken#i'll never get over it#who was the tanta from Rheddah? was she evil? or was there turmiol too?#maybe some tantas from rheddah didn't want sus to be resurrected#like there was a rebellion going on? i have so many thoughts

One final note before going to sleep guess WHAT THE FUCK i managed to find in the depths of my house
#i do vaguely remember the gameplay and the sand worms traumatizing me but also i was like a toddler when i saw it being played#so my mind for the last decade and an half conflated it with the prince of persia game

Finally finished Ori and the Will of the Whisps after four years (it came out in like 2020 or something). It took me 22 hours but I like to wander and collect all the things. The end made me cry. I really like the themes of sacrifice and life going in cycles. But also fuck that conclusion for Shriek, poor thing got done dirty her whole life, she didn't choose shit. Still a very good game and a nice conclusion to the duology. If you like Metroidvanias definitely play these two. :)
#ori and the will of the wisps#razz rambles#ori#it's not like that prince of persia game#that was fun to play but the story is so shit I quit after beating the final boss#Ori gets away with being a little dumb in the first one cuz it's so cute and pretty#and the silent characters are a lot better written#but also it's not trying super hard to be more than what it is#which kinda is how it succeeds#the animation is also always amazing#it's worth playing just to look at#kinda like Okami where your real goal is to make the world beautiful#I'm glad I can have my life back now XD

Top five Jessica Rabbits, go!
Top five video games?
Ask Me My "Top 5" Anything....
Banjo-Kazooie. Hands down. Hands down, this is my favorite game. Not just because it's a great game but because I have a lot of happy memories of playing it with my parents. I grew up with this game. It is maybe the only game I've 100% completed (screw you, Canary Mary; YOU'RE THE REASON I HAVEN'T WITH THE SECOND GAME). And then I introduced friends in college to it. I just bought a copy for a friend's kid. I love this game.
Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. This would be a close competitor for first if not for, you know, Banjo. This is the game that got me into reading fanfic! (But not the one that got me into writing fanfic. That belongs to Tales of Symphonia, which will not be on this list.) Am I saying this is a good game? No. Am I saying it's in my top five? YES.
The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe. I have told at least one person that if she ever buys a Switch I will buy this game for her. I love this game. (I have considered by the Playstation version for my dad because he also loves this game (we've seen some playthroughs) and he's said this is a game he can play! So. You know.)
Undertale. Like. Another game that I frequently recommend to people. I mean. It's Undertale. That said, I haven't gone back and played this in a while, which means maybe it shouldn't be on this list. Hm. (But the story and the music. AND CHARA.)
Enter the Gungeon. I've played a lot of games, and like. I'm not talking story. I have never beaten this game. (I'm no good at bullet hell games, y'all. I'm surprised I made it through Undertale on pacifist.) But I like playing it! It's low stakes! And I like having my little puppy companion! (I pretend that the character I play as is Luisa. It's fun! I know there are other options. But I want to play with the puppy companion!!)
#musings#cobaltstarling#bandit answers questions#fic recs#meme response#ddlc can't go on here because i haven't - and /probably won't/ - play it#and like - i think i could sub enter the gungeon out for other games#actually i could also sub out undertale#but like#the stanley parable was so good and ultra deluxe delivered on that and added so much more#i love it SO much#honorable mention goes to prince of persia sands of time#for my college playthrough with my roomie#we took turns doing the different parts because we were better at different things#and it was the first time i'd played it - the first time EITHER of us had played it#because we went to the local indie game store and were like 'these are the games we like help'#(and additional honorable mention goes to crash bandicoot - the first one; the original - because i got it for her junior year#because i FOUND IT at that indie store#and knew it was her favorite game#and then we both 100% completed that game together#or i think maybe she finished it later...?#we tried SO HARD#but again - both of us had different things we were good at!#crash was our 'my roomies get buzzed because they have a shit class together and then two of us play vidyo games and the other#pays attention' game)
