Top 5 video games?

Oof, that’s a tough one akdj;lakjsd;akj

1) Undertale

- I know, I know, obvious and common choice, but that’s because it legitimately is a really really good game. I recently replayed it and man, it was still so good. The plot, the fourth-wall breaking, and how it differently interprets traditional gameplay mechanics and elements such as EXP, LV, saving/reloading- I honestly love it all so much. The fact that your actions do in fact have consequences and that every little thing you do will somehow change the course of the story or how the characters react to their surroundings/you? I will never get over that. Each character is lovely and multi-layered, the world is so interesting, and the entirely different experience each route provides; wow. I could go on and on about this game, but I’m sure you guys mostly know all about it.

2) OFF

- Once again, super good game with an extremely interesting world. Every single character is memorable and charming, and the unique atmosphere and lore it possesses still manages to amaze me. Who came up with setting smoke, meat, plastic, metal, and sugar as elements? Genius, especially how each element manages to provide a new twisted spin. What sugar does to the elsens will forever be embedded into my head. Besides, it goes to show you shouldn’t be going around blindly following questionable objectives.

3) Little Nightmares

- This game is just… amazing. For one, it is dark and twisted in that one specific way I absolutely adore. For those who have played the DLC, you know how much more messed up and heart wrenching it gets  once you figure out that one certain fact revealed in it. Honestly, the unique atmosphere of the game just overpowers you and completely immerses you in the experience and it continues to amaze me every time I go back to it. Besides, I love it when people use the concept of hunger and change it into something absolutely twisted. It’s a personal thing, but still.

4) Splatoon (1 and 2)

- Guys, I love this game with my entire being. It’s so??? Colourful??? Like, I am a loser for things like these. It’s like a third person shooter game, only that it was turned all funky and neon and child-friendly in the best way imaginable. The characters are endearing and the single player plot is pretty interesting too, and with the recent Octo expansion DLC the game got only more interesting. Seriously, I will always love this game with my heart and soul.

5) Pokemon 5th Generation (BW & BW2)

- I will never understand why the 5th generation gets so much hate. As a whole, I think this whole game was absolutely glorious. The characters were actually multi-layered and well constructed. As one example, Cheren and Bianca were presented to the player as their childhood friends, their rivals for the story. Cheren is bookish and smart, Bianca is bubbly and almost naive. Two themes of the 5th generation were Ideals and the truth, represented by Zekrom and Reshiram respectively. At first glance it seemed as if Cheren was the one who related to the theme of truth and Bianca the one related to Ideals. However, as the story progresses and the player finds out more about these characters, it becomes apparent that in fact these characters possess another layer underneath their outward personality and in fact stands for the other theme. Plot wise, this game challenged traditional pokemon gameplay. When I first entered the Champion’s room after beating the elite 4 (they have absolutely gorgeous rooms by the way), I could have never expected that the champion would be already beaten. I also could not have expected for N’s castle to just… burst open and rise out of the ground? And Ghetis was just an amazing villain as well. He was manipulative, evil, and lay under the guise that he was actually doing something good for the world almost the entire time. To this day I will never forget the way he manipulated N from childhood, his atmospheric battle theme, or his dirty level 54 Hydreigon.

Pokemon xy animu and/or Best Wishes

XY:

Tripokalon doesn’t exist. Serena finds interest in making Pokévision movies; her arc consists in slowly figuring out why they’re not very popular. She recognizes Sana at the professor’s Camp and they strike a friendship, Sana watches her stuff and gently tells her “uhm, why are your videos all about you and not about Pokémon?”. Trova gives her a few pointers on the technical aspect. She works her butt off and is always recording battles but also daily life (one of her first popular videos is simply the group having lunch time) and studying other people’s Pokévisions; a running gag becomes that she starts taking notes of ideas at the most random times, including when Team Rocket attacks (at least one video involves TR, and relies on the fact that they’re predictable enough that Serena could storyboard a scenario about them). She eventually makes it to the national big competition with a movie about how Fokko and their relationship evolved and changed since the start of the series; it passes the first round of voting before losing. Sana makes it to the final. Ends bittersweet, frustrated but motivated to work even harder and super-proud of their achievements so far. Serena decides to go study movies in Pokéwood studios in Isshu (maybe they go together??), and in a special, she meets Luke (who, of course, speaks about a movie he made last year with friends, without ever mentioning Satoshi’s name) and makes a movie with him starring Zoroa and Tairenar as a duo of kickass princesses.

The Flare storyline is resolved in a fifth spin-off Act, which ends with doubleagent!Pachira and Carnet destroying Fleurdelys, Daigo and Alan figuring out technical mega-energy stuff, and Puni-chan saving Hari-san in return. In XYZ, the main group meets Manon and Hari-san at the League because she’s participating (……with Puni-chan in her team??), Platane and his newly-back assistant Alan are here to cheer on everyone. The Satoshi-Gekkouga storyline is totally scrapped, or perhaps transferred to Sanpei.

The person who randomly shows up last minute and wipes the Kalos League tournament is Iris, as training for becoming GL. She confesses she’s kindof aiming for Champion in a few years. Kibago is still a Kibago but she destroys Pikachu and Trova’s Mega-Lizardon Y with Mega-Gaburias (Mega-Lizardon got Kairyuu, but Kairyuu beat a Tsunbear fair and square at some point), and possibly Manon’s Fla-chan with Doryuuzu.

Shouta was introduced in like episode 10, is a beginner and gets Satoshi to go senpai on him, which Satoshi fails a lot at in the beginning but takes seriously and happily. Satoshi is thrilled when Shouta beats him, means he’s a good teacher!! the goal then becomes to beat him back.

SHIGERU CAMEO. My favorite idea is still: Shigeru pops up, Serena points at him in silent scream, he goes “ohhh you’re hat girl!! I Remember.” and we see the direct follow-up to the Sere->Sato childhood flashback, namely: Satoshi got them lost again instantly and Shigeru had to find them, scolded them both for getting lost, dragged Satoshi away by the hand, and Serena never got a single minute alone with Satoshi again for the entire camp because Shigeru was being his attention-whore bossy diva childhood self. He haunted Serena’s nightmares for months.Then they actually talk, and she realizes Shigeru changed a lot since then, and come to think of it so did Satoshi… and so did she, she’s not a timid little girl anymore, and it’s ok to not be in love with the little boy from her memories anymore.Satoshi is completely oblivious to the entire process.

BW!:

more cameos……… cameos for everyone………

I understand why it couldn’t be but if I could make the original Plasma plot happen like it was meant to, I’m sure it would have been amazing. would involve romantic and terrifying N-and-Satoshi ferris wheel moment, Satoshi yelling at Ghetsis and saving His Friend N, the Goddesses actually doing shit, and either zero Dark Trinity, either a lot of them in ways that never make it impossible that they’re the Sanyou brothers. I probably wouldn’t have gone all out and made Dent explicitly one of them, though, but… you know, discreet hints, subtle implications that Dent had a whole morality crisis behind the scenes and eventually decided to betray Ghetsis and quit and stay with the kids and protect them, all of this quietly offscreen.

make Cheren and Bel know each other???? that change from the games made me super sad…

Shootie making friends! And like @ariverofmilk said, cute post-League scenes with Satoshi aaand bonding with Jalorda.

Turns out super late in that Iris was secretly GL all along (with Shaga being her substitute or co-GL like Kasumi and her sisters), or already knew she was to be Shaga’s successor; her arc concludes with her either deciding to accept it, or to continue travelling to train and aim for becoming the Champion. (Shootie makes a weird face when he learns that.)
