Video Games To Get To Know Me With!

Really enjoyed this trend that a friend of mine did over on bird app (I refuse to call it "X" on principle), so I figured I'd put my take on it over here! If you see any games on this list that you also enjoy, please let me know! I'd love to geek out with you! ^^

Hi chat does anyone have any video essay recommendations 💃✨ Specifically about fun niche nerdy things. By niche nerdy things I mean:

super eyepatch wolf has a great video about fake video games that I loved

hbomberguys videos but especially his latest two about plagiarism and about the Roblox oof

That one video where the guy did a speedrun of Mario using what he called “alternate realities” that one is so fun

Anyways comment below 👀 (and if you make video essays you may self promo 🙌)

GET OUT OF MT HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD

[trappedinafantasy37]

We did it guys! Minthara is in the top 100 most mentioned video game characters on Tumblr, sitting comfortably at rank 55!

With Astarion at rank 1 (cause of course), Gale at 5, Shadowheart at 6, Karlach at 8, Lae'zel at 9, Wyll at 12, Halsin at 16, Tav at 19, Gortash at 47, and The Dark Urge at 67. Baldur's Gate 3 is also the most talked about video game on this platform, as well as the 6th most talked about thing on all of Tumblr!

I wish Minthara was higher, but you know what, I'm happy she's on there at all! It is also interesting that she ranks higher than Durge and that Durge is that low on the list. It's also pretty interesting that there is such a discrepancy between Durge and Gortash as Durgetash is also the 67th most talked about ship on the platform. It is quite an achievement that our favorite drow is even on that list at all.

It is all just making me think back to some of the more dejecting AO3 statistics with Minthara almost being a blip, practically a statistical outlier in some ways. Even some insignificant side characters got more attention and adoration than her, or had numbers that would compare to her. But Tumblr is a much bigger platform than AO3, containing a much wider array of topics (including fanfics). So for Baldur's Gate 3 and Minthara to stand out that much is really saying something! Reading these statistics on Tumblr does go to show that one platform does not represent the entire fandom and that AO3 is only a piece of the picture.

TTRPG GAME JAMS

in my "find and join every obviously ttrpg-focused game jam on itch.io" era this week, so i figured i'd share the jams that i have joined which are either ongoing or coming up soon! so that any of my fellow creators or TTRPG fans can check out what ends up in them 👀

Troika Dungeon Jam!

will eventually become a free collection of dungeon encounters for Troika! it's not a game i know a lot about but it looks cool, and i enjoy both dungeons in TTRPGs and setting myself unrealistic workloads.

Tiny Library Jam #6

also on the list of things i happen to enjoy: making up settings with no other context, and things that are tiny! this jam does come with a licensing agreement and such, though, so be warned of that ig.

Minimalist TTRPG Jam #3

one day i will participate in a minimalist TTRPG jam. i swear. a great way to release a game if you don't have the time or talents to add fancy formatting & art into the game design. (see: yours truly).

The Adventure Calendar - 2024

the goal to release something TTRPG-related every day of december will... probably be too much for me, but a man can dream. this will definitely be a fun motivator for creativity, though!

Winter Horrorland TTRPG Jam

a jam by a creator whose previous jam, the Queertober jam, created one of my best games! massive shout out to them for that. plus i love writing horror, and i don't do it enough, so... christmas horror game?

Shitpost TTRPG Jam

it's a game for shitpost-inspired TTRPGs, what more can i say?
