#the first 4 games tell a story

Seething at the mouth over fnaf lore and it’s wasted potential

playing slay the princess as intended (watching your friend stream it and then roleplaying as improvised ocs for each of ur runs)

the veilguard curse.....i just want to play older bioware games; ALSO small rant where i really started losing hope in the story

I HATE GAMES....that make you go through a dialogue tree only to leave you with only ONE option to choose. i am thinking of one conversation with solas where rook's final and only option of dialogue is "I will do whatever it takes" or whatever and UGHHHH

I HATE THAT especially when i'm trying to run a character that would NEVER say that???

ugh i love roleplay games that make you play a character you didn't at all make /sarcasm

this is just an excuse to make a post about how rambert would never "do whatever it takes", he won't lie even to save face or earn trust.

Can't get the idea of a sonic storybook game based on little red riding hood where sonic is summoned to play the role of the big bad wolf out of my head

Sonic would be a werehog (the big bad wolf, of course), cream would be little red riding hood, and vanilla would be the grandmother (tho idk if their relationship would actually change). I'm thinking eggman would be the hunter but it could be someone else too. Also there has to be a shahra/merlina type character in there somewhere, not sure what her role would be tho

Sonic knows very well how the story goes (pretty much everyone does) and adamantly refuses to play his role like he's supposed to bc eating someone, then pretending to be them to try and eat someone else, and then getting shot and dying is. Not exactly his style y'know

Still, despite his efforts, things play out like they usually do near the end, with the hunter fending off/(trying to) kill him. I'm thinking he uses silver bullets to incorporate some werewolf lore bc of the werehog thing

Though the story it's based on is relatively simple compared to the arabian nights or arthurian legend, it still ends with someone becoming an eldritch-like being in an attempt to rewrite the narrative somehow

Maybe someone was manipulating the hunter behind the scenes to make him think the big bad wolf was still a bad guy. Or maybe the hunter messed with forces out of his control like eggman usually does in order to get rid of sonic. OR maybe the hunter killed the og big bad wolf before he was supposed to and sonic is summoned basically as a replacement by the new shahra/merlina so the story goes as it's "supposed to", and she gets pissed when it doesn't

Not sure how it would go exactly, but like. It's a staple of the series for it to end like that by this point. Also would be cool if there were more horror elements in general in the game I think. And weird magic shit but I think that's obvious by now

Maybe the first half of the game is just sonic but in the story of little red riding hood, but after everything with the hunter and getting shot with a silver bullet, the second half has him race against the clock to find some way to cure his poisoning and figure out what the fuck is happening. Bc he knows this story and can very clearly tell something is off abt the way things are playing out

Also the new super-esque transformation sonic gains to defeat the final boss has to have some werehog elements in it. I'm thinking like an aura that forms its silhouette around sonic, or maybe like a form that looks like a mix of super and the werehog? Idk

Anyways. Yeah

Wanted to see what the feedback on the latest Sims 4 update was so I went to the Sims forum and. They're taking down the 14yo forums at the end of the month apparently?? And replacing them with a really bad almost unusable EA forum thing?? Devastated. I understand that the forums were barely holding on and that the site is old, but the replacement is absolutely not high quality enough for any kind of community, let alone one the size and importance of the Sims community.

[countdown-til-sanders-take-over]

this is a formal apology for every time i've read ur fnaf theories, gone "ah... of course! yes!" and then forgotten to respond

This is a formal apology for every time I've read one of your asks, not immediately had a TQ&/E, and forgotten to respond

People saying that fans weren't that mad about Grant, one of the original 4 party members, not showing up in the first two seasons of the Netflix Castlevania were clearly not at all aware or just not part of the Castlevania crowd when it was first airing, because I remember a lot of people being very ticked off and not liking the writers' explanation for why they left him out. The reason why nobody hears about it anymore was because people got exhausted (from being emotionally devastated) by season 3 (still sour about that) and by the season 4 when Greta finally to showed people were begrudgingly accepting of it because she was a cool character.

Not to mention the months and years between the entire production would have left people not really interested in seasons 3 and 4 by the time they aired. I wasn't even watching and bits of what I had seen or heard just didn't sit with me because 2 ended on a high note. And this is coming from someone who was very hyped about Death's appearance by the end of 4.

That being said, it is still f****** ridiculous that it took four seasons for Grant/Greta to show up and be relevant. That still pisses me off the more I think about it...

Also everything leading up from St. Germain's character arc... ehhh...

OC Isaac was pretty much carrying the second half of that show.

Nocturne looks cool but plot wise it doesn't really impress me overall. It's kinda it's own thing which is okay... Juste was a pleasant surprise, but I think I would have preferred something independent from the previous Netflixverse.

Day 23 (30 Days | Homestuck - Day 9) - Favourite Flash ([S] Jade: Enter)

"CG: YOU MADE AN UNBEATABLE BOSS IS WHAT YOU DID"

=Thoughts=

I'm wondering if I should really write these when the pieces are made simply since not a great deal of thought is put into the how of it. It's been an interesting habit, but still.

Trying to pick how to go about this took some thought, but a simple scene that shows the impact of the whole thing seemed right, both because simple & doable and also because it demonstrates the impact of the whole flash and not just one scene (though that would've been a good approach too).

I just did a simple mostly-symmetrical piece of Bec Noir since, aside from the clothes and scar, he is largely symmetrical. The bust portion was done incomplete intentionally but the wings, while also incomplete, extended beyond the intended frame 'cause otherwise it wasn't going to look natural.

It's surprising the power of a reference shot (even if this is closer to a panel redraw). The flash had some good shots of Bec Noir on its own.

i'm fundamentally opposed to book titles in translations of ancient epics ('beguilement on mount ida,' 'a hero's son awakens,' 'the olive tree bed,' 'camilla's finest hour,' 'juno served by a fury') bc it just seems like too much to me to presume you know what single thing the book is really about, but christopher logue is allowed to do it

Surprise -- it's video time! Rather pixelated video time, but there's not much I can do about that -- this is a straight upload of a video I took in my Chill Valicer Save a little while ago, and apparently this is the quality that it's in. *shrug* Besides, it's not the video that I'm so interested in sharing as it is the sound --

Because, as you might have guessed from the title, the whole point of this 17-second clip of my game is to share what my Smiler actually sounds like. Back when I first posted the 2013 Alton Towers Firework Show for a "Song Saturday," I mentioned that the surprisingly deep voice they used for The Smiler stuck with me as what my Smiler should sound like. And while the Sims version doesn't sound quite the same as the coaster, it's close enough in my ears. At the very least, it gets the point across that their voice is deeper than you might expect coming out of them! So yeah. Enjoy your new knowledge of Smiler's voice!

(Oh, and if you want context for the clip, this was recorded when I sent the trio to Chestnut Ridge for SimCity Founding -- that's a few Chill Valicer Save updates in your future, though!)

Finally restarted DE, and... This man is a *disaster*. I love it

[gottagobuycheese]

there’s got to be a faster way to play this game but How

[dragonspleenistasty]

OOO there could also be like, ambient noises and sound designs. Maybe you get to chat with the fisher that brings you the fish, but you still never see what's going on there or even see the crew.

Cooking horror game where you play as a cook working in the galley of a ship in the 1800s. There’s some kind of supernatural nautical horror story going on in the background but you barely notice this because you spend all day cooking in the galley.
