#acting like I’ll finish it

[quibbs126]

You ever replay a game after finishing and realize just how much foreshadowing is in the opening area?

#evoland 2 #nibiru village #no legit I understand everything they talk about and know what’s going to happen #the first town actually tells you about quite a number of plot points #you just don’t realize it yet #or you’re like me and forgot you had these conversations #so you only remember them when you go back #random stuff #quibbs plays evoland 2 #I don’t know why I keep tagging this stuff #acting like I’ll finish it #when I never do #I suppose it’s just to give context that my thoughts are coming from someone as they currently go through the thing

The eventual kazuha and sanemi dynamic

#kny crossover #genshin impact #kaedehara kazuha #shinazugawa sanemi #one day I’ll finish writing the first chapter. one day #anyways I love thinking about these two #i think platonic relationships are so fascinating #like you could definitely construe so many different friendships as romantic ships but to me these two as friends has so much potential #sanemi canonically dislikes Giyuu because he gives off a ‘better than everyone else there’ vibe that is purely unintentional #and canonically is friends with Iguro for reasons I still cannot figure out #sanemi’s so interesting because it’s not like he’s a purely chaotic character despite what his first appearance would suggest #the manga and genya’s memories clearly show that he has a lot of respect for oyakata-sama because oyakata-sama is not high and mighty and- #does in fact understand every sacrifice that goes into the battles that they fight that he must sit on the back lines for #sanemi is a very loyal person I think once someone has earned his loyalty even though he owes about showing this in very aggressive ways #I think he goes off against genya especially because genya fighting as a demon slayer goes against everything that sanemi has fought for #since they lost their happy lives sanemi has been fighting for at least one of them to still be able to live normally and he probably thinks #that Genya spat on that sentiment by becoming a demon slayer anyways #anyways I think sanemi and kazuha would have such an interesting dynamic #sanemi has the authoritative upper hand as a pillar but kazuha isn’t even a demon slayer which means sanemi’s position doesn’t do much #beyond acting as an indicator that he is one of the strongest of the corps anyways. #they’ve both lost a lot but sanemi still has someone to fight for whereas kazuha is holding onto the last embers of a corpse’s wishes #and I think them having a talk about their motivations would be very good #because I don’t think at this point that kazuha has very much reason to live beyond carrying on Tomo’s wishes #if the swords are parallels to visions I think Kazuha’s turning point will be when he receives his own nichirin sword #sorry for the long tags lmao

You are so right in your distaste for Blades book 2. No matter how great things get near the end, a majority of the book was horrible. They led us along like mouse to cheese. It’s inexcusable to play with their audience this way.

I only wish more people were less willing to excuse PB’s mediocrity. The signs were on the wall for me when DLS was flat out better than Blades 2, and it’s narratively quite simple. The story told was well paced, thought out, and above all kept us waiting for more each week. I cannot say the same for B2. That is sad.

I mean I do understand why people still enjoyed it and were willing to overlook the negative aspects or didn’t have much of a problem with them to begin with. Blades 1 was a fan favorite, we all missed these characters a lot, and many people (myself included at one point) didn’t believe we would actually get book 2 because of all the bait and switches PB had done in the past. But the first two things are why I personally couldn’t overlook the glaring issues.

I can’t remember who the OP was now, but I remember seeing a post from when book 2 only had a few chapters out where someone said something about it seeming like the writers learned all the wrong things about what made the book so good, and I couldn’t agree with that person more! Yeah, book 1 was good because it was different from anything we had ever gotten before. But I think the main reason it was so good was because of the characters as individuals and the relationships we got to form with those individuals to ultimately become a family. Yet they didn’t really acknowledge those individuals or relationships in ways that did them justice for the majority of book 2. And on top of that, MC’s own characterization was inconsistent at times because the writers picked and chose when they wanted us to be a competent leader and when they wanted us to be virtually clueless for plot convenience.

Book 1 was also relatively straightforward whereas it seemed like the writers wanted to turn the sequel into their own personal commentary on religion, which is an incredibly complex topic in itself. They had some social commentary in book 1, but it was done a lot better in my opinion because it didn’t take so much of a front seat. They managed to make it clear that that commentary was important and relevant to the writers, the characters, and the readers living in the real world while never robbing book 1 of that fun adventure game used for escapism feel. Meanwhile, book 2 almost felt like ‘Rising Tides but make it religion’ at times. And that’s on top of all of the other issues I’ve already mentioned in my previous posts.

I will say that I can see how there’s usually a lot of pressure to blow things out of the water for a sequel to something so beloved, and that most likely contributed to how things played out. So maybe I’m being a bit too harsh in my judgement of everything. But I still find it very disappointing to wait so long for something just for it to be so messy and miss the mark by a mile

#choices bolas #choices blades #blades of light and shadow #choices stories you play #playchoices #I think the alcohol I had tonight is making me soft #bc there’s another side of me that agrees with you about how people should be less willing to excuse PB’s mediocrity #and that’s in general not just about Blades #but at the same time I’m like maybe I’m going too hard and need to chill 😂 #so I’ll just say harsh but true #also about DLS I’m not VIP so I haven’t finished it yet #but I am still enjoying it #idk if I’d say it’s well paced #it’s definitely not as badly paced as Blades 2 but I think they are dragging it out a bit #to really capitalize on those sex scenes every chapter 😂 #however as a lot of people have already pointed out DLS knows what it is bc the writers were actually self aware for once #which makes it enjoyable because we aren’t taking it too seriously and nor are the writers or the characters as an extension of them #so we can fuck around in the neighborhood (literally and figuratively) - get good dirt on everyone - and play detective on the side #and MC and the LI don’t act like self righteous little bitches #like people who are smarter than they actually are #or like they fell madly in love within the first 2 seconds of meeting #and the crazy thing is that the romance is fairly well written tbh #choices #choices app #choices ask

And here we have… yet another Aziraphale! He is most certainly my favorite fellow, positively tickety-boo.

#I’ve tried a new brush and I just adore it! It is called PSKI Pencil for anyone wondering. #I doodled this little number while finishing up season One for the first time #(Yes- I did watch the seasons out of order) #I do like the first season but I feel like it had a tendency to drag #To be fair- it had a lot more going on. #Still- The pacing in season two felt way more natural #And it also felt like everything from the acting to the visuals all settled into their roles- which really gave the show its own identity #Both seasons are very good- but season one set the groundwork for something truly spectacular #good omens #aziraphale #azirafell #aziraphel #Good Omens Season 2 #my art #And yes-yes I’ll draw crowley too… someday.

Hiyori Tomoe + I was feeling weird about drawing and then saw a handsome woman and died a little bit.

#With the way I act and talk about men it’s easy to assume. Sometimes I even think that way. But no. #I actually love women <3 #(too. As well.) #I do not draw ladies loads bc I think. I like real women more than anything ever. And I simply cannot capture a Real Person. Yet. #very fun that this is my first art post of the year and not the two short comics I made. But also #this reminded me about what I actually like. No more silly trope y stuff I’m gonna. work on more soft sweet real people feeling stuff. #hello yes see I draw #traditional art #artists on tumblr #drawing #sketches #doodles #hiyori tomoe #enstars #enstars fanart #hiyori tomoe fanart #Ok cool I also finished my sketchbook w these ladies btw. Finally. I am going to. Bed in 20 minutes I’ll see if I’ll start the next one… #but I also am really wanting to try and practice drawing women the way that. When they. Yknow. You understand you’re all gay too. #I really wanna capture like. The confidence the charm. My art usually looks like. Anime girls (derogatory). #This year we fight misogyny.

Guess who just finished rise from the ashes…

#I cannot begin to describe the amount of emotion ace attorney instills within my being #WHY IS IT SO GOOD DAMN IT #if this is how I act after the dlc I don’t want to find out how I’ll be after finishing the whole trilogy god help me #ace attorney #phoenix wright #phoenix wright: ace attorney #rise from the ashes #get it.? like a phoenix :( #I miss them so much already it’s not even funny

The other day I was showing my partner a stupid Christmas show and in it they kept referring to a felt doll (not even a puppet) as a Muppet because it was purple I guess? I didn’t say anything, but at one point my partner said, “that’s not a Muppet, stop calling it a Muppet.”

Thank you, I love you, you understand me

#the last post I reblogged made me think of this #cause my muppet rants have now influenced them #<3 #when they wake up I’ll tell them about the prev post and how ppl in the notes are still getting things wrong #like thinking muppet caper is not acted by muppets even though that’s the most obvious example???? #someone said muppet Christmas Carol is the first instance of the muppets as actors?? #the first movie literally starts with all the muppets gathering to watch the movie they finally finished filming please be fr #anyways I love being autistic about muppets #muppet speaks

deeply hypocritical of asagiri to try to pivot the story into the fake deep commentary on the state while completely ignoring the question of carceral system even with mersault at the heart of the story for years

#i’m way too tired to say anything of substance but i’ve been thinking abt the way asagiri writes political commentary and oh god #txt. #mersault is a foucaultian nightmare but bc of the way dazai and fyodor are written and directly referred to as 'monsters' (and said comment #being fairly understandable given the way they act) it excuses the structure completely making it seem like a reasonable structure to have #when i finally have time to finish discipline and punish… then maybe i’ll try to make this more coherent #but that will be july at the earliest so uhh whatever #whatever the gist of the thing is that bsd psychological storytelling and doesn’t work once you try to implement any serious social #commentary and also asagiris grasp of political theory seems extremely shallow #like yeah ok you quoted weber once whats next #actually it’s so interesting that theory authors apparently stay as real ppl in bsd ig im never getting a twinkified gilles deleuze… #oh and don’t get me started abt the hunting dogs how are you gonna criticize the state but have them be 'actually good’ bc they care #about civilians they are literally the state power civilians need protection from

Can you guess which prompt I’m doing (spoilers it’s one of my favourite songs)

I tried tagging the basics but let me know if I should tag something, I’m pretty desensitized to this stuff but I know not everyone is

#this is my first time participating in an event like this I hope I’ll be able to finish it #well now I posted this it will hopefully act as a motivator to finish #see ya soon #body horror #trigunbodyhorrorweek #cw: gore #gore #dissection #anatomical dissection #exposed muscle #vash the stampede #I love putting this man through unimaginable horror #vashposting #i wasn’t sure if fanart is okay or if this is only for fic but given how you’ve reblogged my art I assume this is welcome

time to write!

#sneaky niki #I’m a Hot Reigen truther. what can I say #but I draw the line at him smelling nice #that doesn’t sit right with me #lamb loose liveblogging #so. chunga is back with a banger. miya from gwsn dropped an mv :) #my crops are watered #yesterday I was too sick to write sorry #let’s talk about how much I hate ch 15 currently #I’m 7k in and idk how to finish it #well I do know.. it’s just a pain in the ass to tie that scene in with what I’ve written so far #HDS is very much not doing well #he thought he could be as unpredictable as YGG and alternate nice gestures to mean ones to SDY #but? honestly? HDS is not cut to handle the repercussions of such a farce #he knows he needs to train SDY with good things too. as incentive #but every time he is nice to SDY he needs to question himself like: #‘am I doing this right? why acting nice to him makes me kind of happy??’ #so he retaliates by striking back and being mean and ominous.... problem is: #SDY LIKES THAT #and HDS is like: #‘I just slapped him. why is he purring like a cat??’ #so. they make me struggle these days. #hopefully I’ll be able to post ch6 by the end of the week. #have a very good day you. you. reading these silly tags.
