Started replaying Kentucky Route Zero. Already I'm back in it. This game is like a poem. But not a stuffy, academic poem. Like the sort of poem that comes to you mind as you drive down a back road and take in all the beauty and the degradation. Absolutely gorgeous. Haunting. You want to get lost in it and you're already lost in it.

The fact that the game doesn't have "right" answers in the dialogue adds to the feel. You're really using it to shape how you see the characters, and the options you don't choose still teach you about the world. To me that's what a good roleplaying experience can be when you're inhabiting characters that the game created.

I guess what I mean to say is this game feels like coming home late at night after a vacation. Familiar and foreign at the same time.

DERBY DAY 2024!!!!!

to my greatest lament, I can't party all day because I have a mermaid swim from 4-4:30pm my time in the tank. But I will have juuuust enough time to get rinsed & dried enough to pull the race up on my phone for 4:57 post time mdt. And watching the earlier races today with some fancy mocktails in the meanwhile.

My brain keeps making up plots for totk while I sleep which makes for entertaining dreams but also there’s no way any of them actually happen in the game

#rambles from the floor #the one last night was pretty darn cool #but it was too fanfic-y #also the inside of Hyrule castle looked like the lifesized ark in Kentucky so that’s obviously not gonna be real

We’re in Kentucky so far, made it to my brith state!

Besties! I made it home in one piece and it was a good show except for security who literally told us "we won't give you water unless you go down" and even when people were going down they were given the tiniest cup and just left in the pit

There were also some other hockey fans behind me I didn't get their names or anything but they saw my Nico background and were like omg!

Anyway here's a pic that represents me and the bestie in the pit at shows at 27 we're tired girlies always

#kiki rambles #pierce the veil #im the blonde one lmao #my best advice from this trip is DO NOT GO TO A SHOW AT CORBIN ARENA #they will literally just leave you pass out in the pit #also will be posting a video from my insta story of us waiting AN ETERNITY in a McDonald's drive thru to get food #me and the bestie have come to the conclusion kentucky is cursed for us #we have too many shitty experiences there

Alright, it's time for me to get sappy. Spoilers for Kentucky Route Zero.

In 14 days, I will have owned Kentucky Route Zero for two years.

No big deal, right? It's just another game in my steam library.

Wrong.

I was introduced to Kentucky Route Zero by a YouTube video that popped up in my recommended tab one day. Originally, I didn't think much of it. It was just background noise while I was drawing at the time, until I tabbed out to check on something.

"Artemis, you've just got an unhealthy obsession" no. No.

This game means so much to me in ways words fail to explain. 2020 was a hellish year for everyone. For me, it meant being quarantined in close quarters with a mental abuser, and I was in one of the deepest spirals of depression I've ever been in. I didn't finish the game in a straight stretch. I played for a few days, got distracted, and then picked it back up. Originally I wasn't super interested. And then I got to Act III. Fucking. Act. III I talk about Junebug and Johnny a lot. I've got parental issues, they're comfort characters, my brain sees them as fictional parents. I've got the whole adopted self-insert thing going on with my persona.

But when I say I have never related to fictional characters more. Junebug's performance in Act III will always be my favorite experience in the game. I've streamed playthroughs to friends and online siblings multiple times, and every time I get to the TLTLY scene, I just sit back and start stimming. And the graveyard scene. Junebug's description of her and Johnny changing who they originally were, becoming who they wanted to be, coloring in and changing and being specific. The art style is gorgeous, the storyline made me cry in the best way possible, and I will always see the main group with a found family dynamic. And while the story itself is sad, the game just feels like home to me. Listening to the soundtrack gives me feelings of comfort and euphoria, and an emotion I don't even know how to describe, and the thing that makes it so comforting and special to me is the fact that it stays that way. Nothing changes. You can go back and play a different way and things still happen. It has always been and will always be a specific way. Weaver will always be at the farmhouse, Junebug and Johnny will always perform, Conway will always leave, and Emily will always sing. It will always be a sacred home to that scared little mind back in 2020. It will continue to be. Maybe i'm just too emotionally invested in KRZ. Maybe It's the trauma, maybe it's the maladaptive daydreaming, whatever it is..

..Without this game, there wouldn't be an Artemis.

And I am so. Damn. Thankful. That youtube put Jacob Geller's video in my recommendations that day.
