For the first time throughout RnS, I have slightly shifted my opinion from "Tanguish needs to be protected at all costs" to "actually someone needs to talk some sense into this headless chicken of a self preserving punk" and I mean this with so much positivity. I live Tanguish as character a lot because he at a glance is harmless and kind, and while he is pretty sweet, he's also pretty self serving at his core. A survivalist who will use whatever tactics he can to make his life as comfortable as seems feasible. He's just a little guy whom I love, but also needs a bit of insight into other perspectives and I'm so excited for the next chapter.

He's just a little guy! He's just a little guy and he needs people! Needs-- like he needs-- like it's a problem he needs people.

But you're absolutely right! He is trying his best, that's evident. Everyone can sympathize with the idea of loneliness, and of not wanting other people to hurt themselves, and of needing companionship. The issue is when his need for companionship overrides both his ability to be comfortable alone, and everyone else's ability to live their own life. He's really good at figuring out how people work, why they do the stuff they do, and right now he's using it to feed his codependency problems.

But! He's learning.

#answering asks #anonymous #thank you anon #the plot point of 'how do i teach Tanguish codependency is bad and he cant just replace Tango with HK'#has fueled 90% of my rewriting last chapter #as well as how do i justify Helsknight not flying off the handle and punching his poor little face #the answer turned into: put them both in public and Let Them Fight [kaiju music plays]#and then Martyn appeared and i was like. hey wait. i can use you very well i think...#and now i think i know how the next chapters are going #its a hard balance ive been trying to strike keeping everyone in character while still driving the plot forward #we wobbled on the tightrope a bit but were fine now i think #[knocks on wood crossess all my fingers etc etc etc]#rns asks

I just had a minor thought but like I've been playing hsr and it's really cute that the trailblazer (Stelle/Caelus whatever) has an idle where they're playing a mobile(?) game. Like my trailblazer makes a little sound of achievement randomly and I'm like "dang I never sound that happy when I do spiral abyss".

Anyway, the reason I'm making this post is because Silver Wolf's trailer came out and she is (famously) also a gamer. Moreso than the trailblazer, but also they've only existed for like two weeks so I won't hold that against them.

It made me think - what if the trailblazer is a combination of the stellaron hunters? Like, they're the ones who "made" them and we've all heard the "Kafka is mother" jokes. What if when the stellaron hunters programmed the trailblazer's personality, they put some of themselves into them? Or perhaps they have leftover memories from their time with them despite the amnesia, nothing concrete but some habits that they picked up.

So they got gaming from Silver Wolf, and perhaps their playful side from Kafka. Like, in the Silver Wolf trailer Kafka memes on her somewhat and then also her nicknaming Blade "Bladie" does suit the vibes the trailblazer has. Maybe the trailblazer's violent impulses come from Blade, then, since it is comical how quickly they start beating random strangers with their baseball bat.

We don't know anything about Elio but he's known as "Destiny's Slave" and that's pretty fitting. As the player character, the Trailblazer has exactly no actual free will. Sure, unlike Genshin, a lot of the different dialogue options do come with unique responses, but there's not one choice the trailblazer can actually make. This holds true from the meta "we (the player) control them" and also in-universe everything they do is predetermined. Looking at this from a fourth wall perspective does make sense since Aha (Elation) recognises its universe - that being the universe of hsr - is part of a game.

Idk, I just found this interesting. Kafka implies the trailblazer knew her before she shoved the stellaron into their chest, but since their memories are gone I do like to think that Kafka manufactured our personality by using aspects of the stellaron hunters.

#honkai star rail #hsr #kafka #trailblazer #stelle #caelus #i play as caelus #silver wolf #blade #elio #also found family stellaron hunters ftw #we're the baby of the family #kafka gave blade the controls so he could pre-programme his fighting knowledge #and silver wolf had to coach him through it #kafka: hmm i think they should like coats #everyone else: NO #kafka: fine but I'm making them a memelord!!!

would it be okay if u told me why u like aoki😭/gen😭😭😭😭BEEN TRYNA LIKE HIM FOR SO LONG I JUST CANTT but i love ur art so much so i still consume it otherwise lol

i liked tohru adachi in high school and tbh i think that alone is enough of an explanation for why i ended up liking aoki

#snap chats #haha see i told you last post's tags were relevant #anyway vLKVJEVLKAEJVLKJ IM CRYING ANON youre so funny. this is the funniest ask i coulda got thank you so much #i dont know why i like him either <- yes i do #fine lets get Real Talk about it #well first off all i thought he looked hot rolling out the elevator and i was playing the eng dub and i think his voice sounds hot there #and thats like. not athing that happens to me ever <- literally thought sawashiro was hot two frames into the game but anyway #i like politician characters. or characters that are in a position of power ESPECIALLY if they have to act like they dont suck balls #like i very much love the idea of the power of charisma and that type of thing not to mention the 'strategizing' as aoki puts it #that comes with politics. LIKE HE SUCKS DONT GET IT TWISTED HE SUCKS BUT //shrug emoji//#like its why i love the mine rggo stories i like seeing mine's thought process and how he uses his intelligence #smart's sexy to me idk what to tell you but moving on #its fun watching him lose his cool too ESP IN HIS FIGHT LMAO HE STOMPIN HIS FOOT LIKE A TODDLER SHUT UP #i also really love the arakawa family in general and thinking of aoki's relationship with each of them makes my brain explode #especially him and sawashiro that shit is painful to watch and i love it so much #i also thought him going from goth to republican was the funniest shit in the world like i howled at that AND i was distraught #aokis so interesting to me from the notion that he IS loved by his family but he has so much hatred for himself it eats him up #and as a result he cant be happy no matter what he does- how hes constantly seeking validation even if it's nothing meaningful #his lil. Dog-Eat-Dog world world belief to ichi also appealed to my edgy depressed high schooler brain. sorry.#his speech at the lockers also got to me. unfortunately. sorry everyone i empathized too hard it got too real it wasnt funny anymore #like as much as i complain bout the very end the ending is what solidified me liking aoki if not also cause of ichi's impact in those scene #plus... analyzing him and the environment around him is so much fun too....#idk reasons for why i like aoki also boil down to personal reasons. he still sucks tho so i cant be upset when people hate him LOL #i probably have more reasons or could elaborate more i love rambling but i mean. who really wants to read all that 💀💀#maybe for a character that WASNT the worst but. aoki is so LMAO #thank you for loving my art regardless :) im sorry i have to be attached to the worst guys ever

Alright gw2 peeps, here's one for all of you with a lot of alts:

All your characters of the same class (e.g. all your rangers) are stuck together in an escape room.

Which of your "class groups" is off the worst and who gets the job done with no problem?

#edit: yall did this way more detailed than my word salad so lemme redo this class by class as well:#eles: not awful. overall a relatively cooperative group despite very differing personalities.#wouldnt be the fastest in finding the solutions but definitely are getting out of there without casualties or other damages #necros: shit tier dynamics. hostile charr that wants to be left alone vs. volatile chak madman vs. way too gentle sylvari plant #communication would NOT go well but they would make it out (neljje contributes NOTHING to this)#mesmers: nightmare courtier who is out to be as destructive on purpose as possible vs. just some guy vs. tvekks (enough said)#tvekks will suffer but they'll probably make it out. maybe. im unsure.#rangers: actually competent. if we ignore the hostile inquest rat in the room we're left with a competent charr leader and a #very cooperative norn huntsman (and bobbie but he contributes absolutely nothing). they will get out just fine.#engineers: disaster. there might be dead. too many egos in one room and a poor norn who just wants to get out beween everyone fighting #she might jus solve this on her own while the other three are about to slice each other's throats #thieves: absolute hell tier. mordrem sylvari trying to eat everything he can possble dig his teeth into.#a mildly confused human who probably just tries her best while the asura in the room is suffering psychic damage caused by #the mordrem and the charr that will simply not shut up for one second #i do not see ANYONE managing to get a solution in these conditions even if individually they might just be able to.#revs: awkward atmosphere between happy upbeat asura kid and really grumpy charr but they're getting through it #warriors: also a weird clash of personalities but they'd pull their asscheeks together and get out of there #and finally the guardians: no destructive force in here. just two very mature people and a slightly chaotic but otherwise clever bard #absolute dream team coming up with solutions. peace and happiness.#budgie plays gw2

I'm just gonna start calling people theymab till they realize that being referred to by your agab is a particularly fucked up version of midgendering

#theymab #ok fine you want to be transphobic i will play ball #same with degendering. ok ur pronouns are they/them now too have fun.#i am SICK of people walking all over us #i like trans women but if you randomly reference someones agab against their will and invent slurs for people like..#its fucking annoying how many of you just let someone talk to u like that just bc they claim 'more oppressed' title by some ideology #u can say black people are more oppressed than latinos but if u call them slurs and are racist ur still fucking racist even if ur #'more oppressed'#your token oppressed status does not make your bullying and hate and discrimination not that #youre still a bully and bullies deserve to get hit back #literally the only way someone will stop bullying you ime is strike back physically or otherwise #ignoring them or 'laughing it off' or going full doormat just makes them do it harder bc they think they can get away w it #the reason i wasnt bullied? because someone tried to fuck with my property and i very near punched them in the face #and purposely caused a scene #and you know what? no one ever touched my shit or said rude shit to me again. everyone got very kind and civil #self defense is all about losing the guilt smart bullies will try to put on you so you dont fight back #nevet ever let someone walk all over you or your friend

im replaying lil bits of shb instead of progressing the msq bc i love it and man the really REALLY awkward little walk urianger has to do to when you enter rak'tika, to get y'shtola to twig what's going on with you without saying anything TOO revealing, is so fun to me.

you can see the moment where it clicks for her, too. in the moment you assume she's just surprised you're still doing hero bullshit but that was not an "it cannot be" of surprise or admiration. bc going back to that cutscene with context, she literally already couldn't tell you were a person until you spoke. and then urianger was so brazenly like "yeah we're here to throw more lightwardens at them. you'll help, right?" there was no way that she wasn't immediately running the numbers on how you looked already and not even halfway done with your ostensible mission, and going hmm, nope, don't like that. don't like that at all. don't know what the fuck urianger is thinking but i am absolutely not a fan.

#the nemesis speaks #ffxiv spoilers #swift plays ff14 #she already tapped out of the exarch's bs so fast do you think she was like HMM maybe i should have stuck around #and then i could have stopped whatever the fuck this is that you're doing #and then she was right what a hollow fucking win. yeah you were right to raise concerns he shouldn't have brushed them off! UH OH #and post zodiark fight if you decide to talk to her she reveals that shb progression was like. physically horrific for her to look at #i think it's post zodiark anyway. bc she's worried abt you being in proximity to a bunch of really strong aether again #which is great i love that what a perspective. to everyone else you're like. mostly fine? a bit tired maybe. even towards amaurot #until the moments where you're very suddenly Not. but to y'shtola and her alone you are actively bleeding out whenever she looks at you.#something nobody else can see except MAYBE ryne. and it is constantly haunting her.#LIKE I SAID i like shb a lot for. obvious reasons

Solas says I know a place and takes you to the middle of a swamp where he insults your culture, religious beliefs, and then dumps you.

#yeah im still thinking about this and its the next day #he might be telling the truth about the Vallaslin but my inquisitor did not let him remove it #I’ve played her as very proud to be dalish and believes in elven gods so it would be out of character even if solas says something else #maybe that’s what it represented then but it is not what it is now and she chooses to move forward #about the breakup … this is not the first time a man takes me on a date and dumps me 😭😭 but hey um wtf #honestly my lavellan does love him and is hurt but she has to be so many things to so many different people #there’s bigger things at stake and bigger problem to deal with at this time than whatever he's hiding or lying about #im pretty sure he was going to say something else not about the vallaslin #but his fear is dying alone becasue i saw it in the fade and yet !!!! he pushes everyone away he picks fights with everyone no matter whos #in the party he didnt come to the wicked grace game he never opens up beyond what he has seen in the fade. he is a fixed point #i wanna shake him by the shoulders and YELL WHATA RE YOU DOING you could have it all someone who loves you and a wonderf #a wonderful found family. he is kind and gentle but he is also so full of ANGER and he is so set on things being as he sees them.#Cole cant change because to Solas cole is always a spirit. the dalish are misguided and YOU Lavellan are just different YOURE special #the meaning of the vallaslin cant change because to him it represents slavery and it is in stone to him. things dont change with time they #are fixed. like things in the fade it what it was preserved. he is trying to hold on to a past that doesnt exist that has moved forward.#Solas says you cant change yourself by wishing. but i would say wishing for change is THE required prerequisite for change. a little though #a little idea a little wish that something was different better. but to #why cant you move forward Solas what the fuck are you holding onto so intesely #OKAY WHATEVER IM DONE WITH THIS ESSAY IM OVER IT ITS FINE ITS SO FINE

You. Thoughts on uni2 story content?

admittedly i havent played the Most bc ive been recovering from getting my teeth yoinked and fighting game takes too much brain power atm BUT. confused as to why theres no proper story mode like chronicle was in cl-r, as for arcades- intrigued by linne's specifically and tbh kinda happy about it. enk's is SO...... BITING HIM. CARMINE'S IS FUCKING BONKERS BUT HONESTLY I CAN'T SAY I EXPECTED ANY LESS FROM HIS CRAZY ASS

overall. in general. Tonally. the Finality of it feels. not. actually? there? really? it seems arbitrary. it's hard to have actual like. how do i put it. meat. of a story. without a real story mode. like all we get are arcades??? both from a storytelling standpoint and also like ALL the promo material it kinda falls flat on what was promised, or at least Implied. i was literally streaming it for my bf day 1 and when i opened the game one of the first things i said was "wait there's no actual story mode option?" to have such heavy emphasis on how this is the End this is the Last one For Real feels forced when we haven't had any legit buildup to that point and even in the game itself aside from cliche anime vague dialogue about how This Needs To End and whatnot it doesn't narratively convey this all that effectively

like personally im not all that . idk. disappointed? by that bc i still need to catch up on chronicle mode from cl-r and haven't had time/focus to do so buuuuut... like. idk it feels weird now? why'd they throw chronicle into the middle game and now leave the supposed last one hanging. especially when theres a lot of loose plot threads that arent getting delivered on adequately, and by the fundamental nature of arcade modes in fighting games none of them are exactly fully 100% for real canon because there's a lot of contradictions so........ what does actually happen. kuon dies yeah sure that was his whole thing and kinda the whole conceit of this game sure sure whatever but like what ELSE? esp with carmine's arcade being so tonally weird the whole time and him talking about how he's dying anyway like SURE IN HIS ENDING HE GOES FULLY APESHITT BUT LIKE WHAT HAPPENS TO HIM FOR REALSIES DOES HE JUST DESPAWN?

all this aside its fun and i like it and all howwwwever there is a slight sense of like.. barring system rework and ui updates it feels like this could just be cl-r dlc of kaguya tsurugi and kuon and not a hell of a lot would change overall?

#cawing #Anonymous #i straight up thought i was jsut missing a menu option or something but like HELLO!#or maybe that if i finish everyones arcades it would show the true ending like old blazblue but uh... sure doesnt seem taht way huh #like dont get me wrong i love corny fighting game shit but at the same time like #in some ways these feel like the shallowest fg arcades ive ever played save for the ones in continuum shift #and at least cs had a gimmicky excuse for why there was only really much of consequence in like. 4 of them #AND additionally had character story modes as real plot so its not like they NEEDED the arcades to be that substantial #and they werent historically until cp bc everything got condensed into one major storyline #which i would be fine if unib took that route but it just. idk doesnt seem like they wanted to commit to that??#uniposting #like i love the game love kaguya love kuon love my blorbos buuuuuut its a bit lacking. just a bit #kuon is fun to play but damn did this justify a whole game #also minor gripe but im salty they dotn give the option of past themes. i was so excited when i saw the themes in the gallery #but no. you can just Play them. fuck off #whoops that got long lmao. never ask my opinion on anything worst mistake of my life

the way people jump to the defense of video games whenever someone is like "what a stupid hobby to spend more than the barest amount of time killing effort on" really just reinforces to me that video games is objectively one of stupidest things to waste your life on

#well I don’t think it’s not worthwhile!!!!!! Well that is because you are addicted to video games.#everyone has a hobby and mine is video games!!!! any hobby that involves physical effort be it a sport or art or wood carving #is worthwhile. you are putting something into the world #video games does not put anything into the world. and is less likely to #negatively impact all the other parts of your life. i have never heard a woman complain her husband is playing golf 12 hours a day everyday #to Be a human being in the world you have to participate in the human experience #effort creativity exertion earnest attempts to succeed #video games a facsimile of effort and toil and experience that give an ultimately hollow sense of accomplishment #because men (and everyone) these days have fewer outlets than ever by which they can express those things organically #especially in a high-adrenaline high physicality way #and i think a lot of men would like to but find themselves unable #and like sorry about the industrial Revolution and it’s consequences on the human race guys but you still have to do something about your #life despite it. I’m sorry you can’t go fight in a cool war.#maybe take up boxing #or woodworking #or rugby #if video games are anything more than a passing way to spend a small amount of leisure time i think they are bad. so.#text posts that i think will probably be fine but might get reblogged by the wrong people and make everyone mad at me dot com

The eternal struggle between wanting to hire the bounty hunter because hnnng sexy and huge combo/mark damage vs like, actually wanting to profit off this expedition

#I'm very bad at Darkest Dungeon 2 #That boy carried me through the like one zone I made it through #before everybody died to the black and silver armor guys with their dumb dual lightning rods #idk why the Moonlit Dungeon lookin dudes are such a brick wall for me tbh #like the adventure's going fine and then one encounter with them and everyone's dead #though I also haven't played DD2 much so like idk maybe I just haven't found the right way to fight them yet #I've had it for a while and Darkest Dungeon 1 gave me MASSIVE brainrot but like #idk I guess like #Darkest Dungeon 2 has the same curse as Dark Souls 2 for me it seems #in that I play it once go ''oh man that was pretty fun'' and then forget about it for several months #until I pick it back up get super obsessed for like two days and then forget and the cycle persists ad infinitum #the curse of Cool-Fantasy-Game-With-2-In-The-Title lives on I guess #Pun's text Posts #... idk though maybe it would change if they added back either of the two characters who were My Fuckign Boy in the last game #but Red Hook seems pretty vocal about one of them not coming back

Been absolutely loving how Psychonauts 2 has been using figments occasionally in levels, so here’s some screenshots/otto shots I took of my absolute favourite and heartbreaking use of them yet!

#psychonauts 2 #second fav use of figments so far has been everyone standing on the stage in helmut's level #except i didn't have the otto shot yet and didn't even think to screenshot it #that and i was being bombarded by tomatoes at the time lol #bit jesus christ this entire level hurt #poor bob #also excuse the lack of otto and ford in these images #i had immediately collected all the figments at the (now) empty table in the second pic before realizing what i was looking at #and im pretty sure that that was the table that otto must have been sitting at #that or bob decided to replace otto with a bear for some reason askdhjaksj #and ford is missing because once i realized and decided i *needed* to have pics of this #enemies spawned in with the source of the bad mood unfortunately (and obviously honestly) ending up on ford and lucy's table #and i didn't think to shoot the stupid cage until after i had accidentally collected ford #honestly im surprised that i didn't lose anyone else in that fight #muchless the waiter and lucy who had been at the same table ajksdsajdhsd #but yeah haven't been able to play the devil in me like the rest of you cool kids cause mine is somewhere in shipping limbo #but i like to think that the universe is making it up to me by having this game #which i wasn't expecting to play for another 3-6 months #be 66% off instead #which is fine because as kiddo can tell you ive been having a fucking blast #seeing as ive been swarming them with my thoughts and comments the last couple of nights lol #now im just sulking cause i cant play it again until friday night 😭

having so much self-control right now (did not start a fight over someone else's garbage take)

#roommates and i just watched Spirited (good movie everyone should watch very fun)#and at the end of it their main complaint (spoiler free) was that the Will Ferrell character should have been played by an “actual singer”#they had no issue with the rest of the cast being actors who can sing instead of singers who can act #just Will Ferrell because apparently he was bad #(fwiw he was fine. he's not gonna win awards for his singing but he can hold a tune)#and they compared casting non-singers in musical roles to WHITEWASHING #I AM DEADASS #with a straight face said it was like casting non disabled actors for disabled roles or like ghost in the shell #i did not say anything because I did not want to start a fight so close to bedtime but HOLY SHIT #let me make myself clear: i think casting actors who are good at singing should be a consideration when working on a musical movie #because the performance is important #but singing is a SKILL it is not an IDENTITY #ANYONE CAN SING #god. anyway go watch spirited and also jingle jangle #shrimp monologuing

its cute kondo and hijikata both have fireball attacks but i wanna know why the fuck tokugawa has a whole fucking flamethrower

#ishin spoilers #spoilers #i cant remember if nagakura has electricity only or fireballs also #but anyway its cute cause its like 'aw theyre so in sync they even have the same ki attack'#but also Why Do They Have Ki Attack WHY DOES TOKUGAWA HAVE THE KAMEHAMEHA #or like. idfk there's no red lasers in dragonball you ever realize that #like the galick gun's purple but i refuse to attribute anyting ve6eta related to daigo #but back on topic like everyone else having elemental attacks can make sense since tennen rishin is like. A Sacred Art or whatever so fine #so why the shogun got it bro 💀#the tokugawa fight was actually so funny i love it genuinely #i wanna play it again but 1.) im not there yet in my replay/speedrun #2.) i told my bro he could steal my account for the week so he could play #3.) i should prepare for my exam tomorrow morning 💀 its just economics tho so

Lancer please if you’re still taking requests!

See this one was difficult anon bc I think about him literally nonstop so I have a great many thinks™️ about Lancer ough

Whether this ends up being true or not, Lancer probably grows up believing fully that he is the Prince of Legend, though he doesn’t understand the implications/responsibilities bc he’s like 6. The knight/coup probably happened when he was still little (just growing out of being a toddler) and since the door between the two sections of the dark worlds was sealed, it’s also likely that no one knew of Ralsei’s existence, or couldn’t be certain of his royal status if so since he’s an elusive dude (at the very least Spade didn’t seem to recognize him during the fight).

In that vein, King Spade superimposes that part of the prophecy onto the only “Prince from the Dark” that he knows, and in turn, as he spirals further and further out of control, believes that his son will be the one to aid in the destruction of their world. He makes no secret of this to Lancer, bc kids are malleable, impressionable little fuckers, and hopes that by placing this enormous weight on his shoulders it will manipulate and scare him into complete obedience.

It...didn’t work (in the long run anyways, probably fucked him right up in the short term though). Probably bc Lancer wasn’t really listening (not his fault, he was trying but it’s like explaining calculus to a 9 year old he is just a little guy). Doesn’t help to have the one person in your life that’s supposed to love you no matter what despise you for crimes you not only didn’t commit, but have no possible way to prevent when the inevitable occurs.

It’s just easier not to think about it, that is...until it’s too late. And by choosing his friends, he fulfills his role in a destiny that could have possibly been circumvented had King Spade been a better father. (or not. Who knows)

#I do know he straight up sent his small child out on the front lines to fight his battles for him #which ok fine if he's down with it whatever bowser jr pop off #but the fact that Lancer was all by himself for the first confrontation with the great threat his father had been warning him about #for like years #doesn't sit right with me like hmmm #And Lancer can take care of himself bc he's resourceful and tough #but the more I think about that I get sad bc he had to be in order to survive in that hostile and at times violent environment #I do wanna say though that Lancer choosing not to allow himself to be victimized/used as someone else's bargaining chip/pawn #by openly defying his father in spite of his immense love for him ughh he literally allows everyone to beat the shit out of him #the entire chapter in the name of keeping the peace or maintaining the illusion that it's all just a game and they're having fun #playing 'good vs bad guys' until they approach the castle and the reality of what he's about to have to do hits him too fast #but in the end he takes matters into his own hands and does what he perceives to be the right thing #taking a stand when all the adults in the castle have done literally fuck all to help up until this point #GodDAMN #the most iconic moment in cinematic history #Lancer ilysm you deserve so much peace and rest and love and worms or whatever #deltarune #lancer deltarune #king spade #ask #thanks for stopping by 💜#SORRY FOR WRITING AN APA ESSAY IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN
