#really irks me cause

I haven't had time to think things too deeply yet and haven't dove into the tags but are there really people reflecting the exact thing Jimmy did in the game at it's most basic? It seems a little tragically poetic to me since Jimmy placed all the blame on others and refused to take responsibility for anything, even in the end it was a selfish action rather than a responsible one.
I also feel like Curly was somewhat more aware on some level of the danger Jimmy presented, the long foreboding walk down the stairs to the cockpit to take Jimmy's psych evaluation, the emergency alarms ringing and the broken ladders presenting a feeling of no escape.
Was anyone there even trained to handle a situation like this? Pony Express sure didn't care about safety, that's for certain..
My thoughts are more on people making sure to remind you what Curly didn’t do to prevent it than the fuitity of the situations and the options he had.
I am in the camp that Curly could’ve done more, put Anya first and prioritized Jimmy less, but I feel like many people shape it more around malice on Curlys part to talk about how he isn’t a good person. It’s taking a character flaw and making it the character and it’s annoying to a degree. As you mentions there’s not the avenues or procedure for him or anyone to handle a delicate issue like this is. There aren’t the realistic avenues people can take without someone facing more harassment, harm or issues. It’s the irony that in thinking that Curly could’ve done more, you are giving him power he doesn’t have just like Jimmy did in his weird envious worship of Curly.
It’s erasing Jimmy’s culpability and sort of turning Curly into his handler which is exactly what Jimmy seems to do with him often, like yes, Curly enables Jimmy in many ways he shouldn’t but he also isn’t shielded from those exact behaviors. Curly can’t escape Jimmy in an adjacent way Anya can’t escape him (mentally, physically, emotionally). Their relationship is unhealthy on both parts but Curly is the one truly being victimized in it.
It’s such a good representation of how toxicity seeps and cycles between other even if trying to be good or just or help and it gets overshadowed by how one can be better despite the situation quite literally points out that there are points where it’s impossible.
#also it’s kinda irks me that it decentralizes Anya in how she’s more included as a failing of Curlys rather than Curly failing her#it like strips her autonomy to this plot device that recenters things around Jimmy and Curly rather than how this all happened because of#Jimmy raping her and getting her pregnant and realizing he’s fucked once they get home and taking everyone down rather than face#consequences like truly he crashes the ship because Curly was starting to get real and serious with him and he realized he really was about#to lose everything like Anya is the center of the story no matter what and it’s the way this is talked about that irks me#cause like she gets talked around#mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#mouthwashing curly#curly mouthwashing#captain curly#ask#anon#mouthwashing spoilers

I think at least half of my criticisms of ESO’s writing are a result of the game’s attempt to have its cake (have a chronological sequence of events and storylines) and eat it too (make almost all storylines and quests be accessible in any order). Trying to do both at once has just led to them not doing either one very well imo.
They want to have overarching stories that develop over multiple expansions, but because they want players to be able to jump into any expansion in any order, each one's main storyline has to make sense and be somewhat disconnected from the other storylines from different expansions in the same overall arc. Any side quest that relates to the main storyline needs to be understandable without knowing anything about the main storyline. And this makes it feel like the writing is often held back and the dialogue doesn't reflect that I already know what's going on.
On the other hand, they also want any expansion accessible at any time. Overall I actually like that I can go to any zone whenever as long as I own them (I'm not locked out of them until I finish previous ones or something like that) and the difficulty is relatively the same, but from a story perspective it just leads to so much timeline fuckery and, like I said, it feels like it holds them back from having actually solid conflicts and character writing.
So far, of the 2 year-long arcs I've played (Elsweyr and Skyrim), in both the main story of the bigger chapter felt so much better paced, with more tightly woven and coherent narratives/characters, while the DLC felt like we were going on a long tangent in a new conflict that was superficially connected to the story from the chapter (and then a pretty satisfying epilogue tying them together, but I don't think that detracts from my point). At the same time, I'm not sure the DLC stories would've made a lot of sense to me if I hadn't already played through the chapter. They would've been so much better if they weren't stuck making the DLCs their own thing and just embraced having them be the second part of a larger story.
Hell, I know everyone loves the Daedric War arc, but I feel like it almost had the opposite issue, where the overarching narrative felt under-developed in Morrowind and Clockwork City until it was tied together in Summerset (even then, it just wasn't satisfying to me personally. That might just be because I'm not a fan of that story though).
idk if this makes a lot of sense because I'm not good at explaining my thoughts, but it's just an observation I've been having while playing.
#mine#eso#i think this would make more sense with specific examples but i just wanted to get the thought out there for now#maybe later ill come back and add some specific breakdowns of moments that irked me#because markarth has had some really egregious ones#and i really liked both the elsweyr and skyrim storylines!#i just think this was the cause of their biggest flaws for me#i honestly have a ton of thoughts on eso because ive been playing it so much and getting genuinely invested#im just not sure anyone would be interested in them for that game though lol#i get the vibe im absolutely not representative of the average eso player at all

i know everyone is praising ify for how he’s playing this season and i do think he is slaying but some of his moves kinda bother me😭😭😭i didn’t like how he took all the drug juice i feel like brennan obviously had a plan for how that was gonna work with persimmon dead AND everyone would’ve got a cool moment with the drugs but he kinda just took it :/ obviously it worked out and it did lead to that convo w liv and russell but idk i felt like jacob in that moment and i’m not even playing LMAO like i would rather have just seen what brennan was gonna do and got to see how everyone was gonna take it
#also with ify i fucking hate his vin diesel impression LMAO#i know that’s a super unpopular opinion and i’m FINE with that i just think it’s so cringey im SORRY#it’s probably cause i’ve never seen fast and furious and i never will cause that shit looks stupid asf#i love nsbu but i HATE actual action movies so some of his moves that are objectively cool give me the ick#jacob looked so upset too#like he really wanted to do something cool with the drug juice#i know what it’s called but i’m not attempting to spell that shit#and ify was like trust me! then did something stupid#then when he was gm and only took 3 bottles😭😭😭😭#BITCH TAKE 6#“i didnt want to do too much#OKAY WELL YOU DID#he better give one of those bottles to jacob or i stg#honestly if he keeps one for himself that’s kind of so annoying too#idk why i’m hating so much AH it’s not that deep it just irked me#never stop blowing up#d20#dimension 20#brennan lee mulligan#ify nwadiwe#nsbu spoilers

the fact that starscream gave up so easily pisses me offffff
transformers one should have been, at the very least, 30 minutes longer. idk i would have LOVED to see d-16 win a fight that starscream didn’t purposefully give up. like, starscream—high ranking high guard member and an active resistance leader—lost a 20 second fist fight against someone who’s never experienced war—who literally started fighting THAT day.
maybe the first fight ended as a starscream win and within the 30 minutes (or longer) runtime, starscream and d-16 fought again after d-16 got some type of experience. the turn from d-16 to megatron and the high guard gaining respect/rallying behind megatron could have been fleshed out during the longer run time, too.
#since this is an origin story of a different timeline starscream could have been established as a cunning and smart bot#that genuinely cared about his cause#let him turn into the piece of shit we know and love#overall the pacing for the film was shoddy#i still love her but gosh that part really irks me#anyway justice for starscream i wanted you to lose fair and square while being embarrassing#starscream#d-16#megatron#high guard#transformers#transformers one#tf one#maccadam#🍒⚡⌚🤖🚗

one thing I haven't seen anyone say about watcher yet, but has really disappointed me, is that only three months ago they mentioned in the truth about filming ghost files video that they had to let go of 5 (if I'm remembering the number properly) employees. and when I watched that video I was disappointed that hey hadn't planned the business properly to avoid things like that, but they are primarily creatives, so I figured there would be some business mistakes made along the way. but then hearing they just hired the 2 worth it guys and are reviving an expensive show... I feel like they could've prevented the lay offs better
#watcher#i know they said steven's more business-minded but as someone who did their schooling in business i have constantly questioned their choices#they have just consistently made bad start-up decisions#just the firing and then hiring in such close time really irked me because (and im not saying this is reality)#it seemed like they freed up part of their budget with that to bring their friends back#idk it's just disheartening to see#i wish i could keep looking at with them being unaware and making bad business decisions but there's a point where they gotta know better#and i know everyone is dogpiling on steven but i don't think a lot of these decisions made without at least one of the ghoul boys agreeing#:/#i feel like they never really went through the bootstrapping phase and that is integral for the majority of start-ups#for at least 5 years - cause most start-ups don't start making money until after that point#this became a whole separate rant in the tags whoops

I will say though that this thing where they put the general gist of what was said or sometimes don't bother to transcribe what was said at all and just do the [x person is doing blah blah] even tho that person is clearly talking for english subs does really annoy me and now that I almost never make a text gifset without attempting to check the original korean it happens /so much/ and it irks me because you absolutely do have the money at that big company to properly subtitle things
#also interesting that i looked at the thai and chinese subs and they seemed to stick more to what was said#idk man like sometimes i get its hard to translate ultra specific things but when someone is like Wow i havent been in a big tractor#like car with hyung for a while idk why you cant just say that? maybe they think it sounds confusing but its the closest to what was said#idk it just irks me#also sometimes they just dont bother to translate the jokes anymore like the [subtitles] will say something funny in kr#but in english they'll just go [hes happily dragged along] well why did you leave out the joke tho ??#giant text taking up the screen and we dont even get to know the joke#stingy company that really doesnt do its own artists justice and u know its gonna end up causing shit at some point#i need to check nmixx subs and see if its a company wide thing or more skz specific#Yuh

ADA time... easy money to talk about when all ive thought of is a disabled man for the past like eight months#it just got me irked when i looked at the presentation cause it was so. ???? You Were Happy To Send This To Me Are You Deadass#like there was a bunch of blank slides and he moved one of the slides from our presentation to the very bottom????#also the formatting was horrible just stuff randomly spaced and very-clearly he copy/pasted each bullet#lke you really couldnt be assed to summarize each bullet. whatever man thats the point of presentation bullets but ok#the pictures were in the fuck-off far corner and small as hell and they're pixelated as christ#so i at least cleaned it up a bit- didnt rewrite everything just cleaned it up so i wouldnt have an aneurysm looking at it#im just especially annoyed too because i emailed him multiple times with what i wanted adjusted#and if he could send me the sources he used to make his slides and this mfer never did like. im going to scream CJCWLJAKLJ#like i dont understand how you can submit something like this and not be embarrassed but maybe im just. horrendous jvLKJLKA#ohhh my god and then i have to work on ANOTEHR group thingt his weekend. guys i cant do this anymore i hate working with people for school#i could complain all day tbh but thats for me to harass my friend with LMAOOOO

Im actually never forgiving Descendants: The Royal Wedding for being all silly goofy happy cartoon and then out of fucking NOWHERE just dropping "I really miss Carlos guys" HEY DISNEY WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM
#It's so fucking jarring#The entire episode up to that point was all goofy funny times and then#That#It also irks me cause they're clearly moving away from the core four with the next movie#I mean I HOPE so anyway#So what was the point of killing him off at all you could've just left him alive NOTHING would change#Like it's an animated mini movie you could easily find a VA that sounds like him#Or if you really didn't wanna do that#Put him in some sort of situation that causes him to be away from the wedding#Maybe he sends a letter or something idk#Like why kill him if you were already ending the core four's story there and moving on to new characters#And like don't get me wrong they SHOULD move away from the core four#Do not fucking touch them anymore unless it's little cameos#The entire reason they initially canceled D4 was because they didn't wanna go on without Cameron#So if they were to go back on that and kill him off so they could keep making movies that would be disrespectful as FUCK#D4 probably a cash grab but I am glad they went the creative route and decided to explore other parts of the universe#Instead of clinging onto the group that's missing a cast member#I just#Man#You could've left him alone Disney you really didn't have to do that#And in the worst way possible too#descendants#peg speaks

Sharing Ninjago doodles I made in class cause I’m finally rewatching it
I thought an image of my sona slingshotting Jay would be funny cause…TBH I hate him, Imma be real here
LIKE I’M SORRY (Sorta) I JUST DON’T LIKE HOW ONE OF THE VERY FIRST FEW THINGS HE DID WAS HIT ON KAI’S SISTER IMMEDIATELY AFTER IT WAS MENTIONED THAT SHE WAS KIDNAPPED 💀💀💀
He reminds me of my classmate that hits on my brother and it gives me the biggest ick LIKE STOP IT ☹️
Anyway most of my viewing consists of me either getting flabberghasted at something, jamming out to the music, complaining about Jay, or repeating consistently that I’m just like Zane,cause my neurodivergent thinking bucket thinks he’s just like me, which is kinda concerning cause I’m relating to a robot dude more than the human characters
Oh and Lloyd is just great, IDK why I hated him when I was younger because I absolutely adore this silly 10 year old
ALSO LIKE WHY WERE THEY SO MEAN TO HIM?? AT LEAST HE WASN’T UP TO GENUINELY EVIL SHENANIGANS LIKE HIS DAD 💀💀💀 ALL HE WANTED WAS CANDY AND A TREEHOUSE, BRO, THAT’S PRETTY NORMAL FOR A 10 YEAR OLD 😭😭😭
#Justice for Lloyd#I despise Jay#Sorry….kind of….#Not really….#Also it irks me when the show ships him with Nya LIKE STOP IT BROOOOOO#Zane is literally me#Half jokingly#Luh-Loyd?#Yeah! It’s me! And it’s Loyd!#No L-L-O-Y-D I named you#YOU RUINED MY LIFE!#HOW COULD I RUIN YOUR LIFE?! I WASN’T EVEN THERE!#That’s like one of the very few quotes that managed to stay in my thinking bucket ever since I watched the movie way back when#Obligatory Ninjago tag#I’m tweaking because now the quote got screwed up CAUSE TUMBLR HATES COMMAS

Serena vdw u never fail to infuriate me w your decisions
#cyndiaries#they’re always either really self centred or really stupid or both 😭#like the whole thing w Tripp…. ho did u seriously think he was gonna parade his mistress around right after the elections#just cause he said he was gonna divorce Maureen 😭 pls don’t play w me rn#and when she ruined jennys sweet 16 just cause poppy told her she fell off LMAOOO girl no one gaf ‼️#the main thing that irks me w her is how she’s such a hypocrite 😭#always going on about how she’s changed and she’s a better person but as soon as smth bothers her she becomes the WORSTT#at least no one else claims they’re a saint 😭 the only thing that’s changed is u don’t party as much girl

The character arc lore could have had
#❓.txt#tng#and i don't necessarily mean a redemption arc either#idk maybe it's cause lore is my favorite and i'm biased or whatever but like#he has so much potential#and it was never utilized in a way where it felt completely... complete (imo)#don't get me wrong his episodes were fine* but i feel like he could have been handled. not better cause that's not quite what I mean really#what they did with him worked for what they were going for#but that doesn't mean I like all of it LMAO#what they showed us in brothers was sooo interesting#his reaction to finding out soong was dying. that disbelief at what he was being told#the anguish when he's talking to him and asking him why he didn't just fix him#but the whole bit with the emotion chip at the end... really blew the entire thing#and i'm an emotion chip hater in general lmao but#AND THE VERY END of the episode/the parallel with the two brothers back on the enterprise. you had everything there!!!! and then you go-#-and make descent!!!!!!! oh which#*except for descent LOL#i could go ON about how much descent irks me but I would want to do it properly and also I would need to re-watch them first before-#-I would feel like I could sit down and write something comprehensible#and like. do I *really* wanna do that. maybe#but anyway#I only know the gist of what happens to him in picard so I refrain from making any comments on that but also what the hell man#lore is the epitome of 'he did all that but idc' for me#like yeah he contacted the crystalline entity and got omicron theta destroyed and then tried to do the same to the enterprise d#but he had a bad father okay#and also i love him. that's my boy

i think it would be funny if for the theatre reveal it’s just an ABSURDLY long bit where a small rock containing theatre’s “true name” is rolling around on the ship and everyone is failing miserably to catch it. nobody ever fucking grabs the rock but to save them some time i do allow for the players to See what is written on it but as soon as its said whats written on it i disband the party and this all happens on april fools so nobody believes me
#i know we’re past april but fuck it. june first#i dont know why but the reveal has me VERY VERY NERVOUS#must be because of the. ahem. current status of peoples feelings towards theatre :) dies inside#i know im a fiction doesnt affect reality kinda guy#i know i display and say values that some freaks (antis) say are deplorable and delusional#and by that i mean i respect the balance between Characters and Real People#it still internally. irks me? i guess#probably just because i see myself in both theatre AND the person i fear him being shipped with the most#and because i have someone in my life who. with me. displays Their Relationship#like. theatre’s dynamic with this character is Based Loosely Off Of me and that other person’s dynamic#VERY LOOSELY i want to make very clear. but its There#idk man im ramblin.#anyways im really like. im gonna Respect if people ship them now and even after#i like. literally cant do shit about that#nor is it really my place to#i just have to accept that its gonna happen. especially as the ‘fandom’ grows#idk man being raised with an ‘anti’ mindset really fucked with my Normal Media Consumption and Appreciation#i dont like to throw around the terms but its the best i got rn#ANYWAYS ANYWAYS theatre’s reveal is going to be. fauckin insane#both the reveal itself and the reactions to it.#so…. wish me luck cause i’m doing it next rp i host. this shit is Happening.

like what the fuck was the reason for this comment. on an 8 week old post. no one was fucking talking about jabitha in the post? asking specifically “why do you have to come back”??? “that’s my opinion so keep it to yourself” when no one fucking said anything about jabitha????
#like what do i even tag this#that’s not how opinions work no one has to cater to your every opinion and not talk about things cause you don’t like them#i really don’t care that the commenter doesn’t like jabitha that’s their opinion agreed but the comment irks me so much#it’s literally just a post about tabitha tate in the 50s it’s not about jabitha endgame#and it was 2 months old when the person commented it like they went out of their way to say that to erinn#anyway. taking out my aggression to the comment personally cause if i said anything to them back it would cause a mess

Mildly annoying writing from a specific character's POV and then having someone complain because a different character is portrayed negatively in that story. My good bitch, the POV character does not like that character, of course they're going to see that character negatively.
#creek's ramblings#im just whining to whine tbh#it irks me cause its kind of like putting words in my mouth about a character that i actually really like#all because i wrote about them from the pov of someone who really doesnt like them
