#those games just Did Shit man

[dailyoyo]

all that said. despite so much of this stuff being heavily future-based. i find og jsr more fun to actually Play LMAO

#mod noname #not yoyo #like. i dont know if i can say one is better than the other #they are very different games that try to do very different things #and they have diff strengths and weaknesses too #like i prefer the og's artstyle but future has more fun settings #and i think i geeeenerally would say im a future ost guy (though theyre both very good) #(us!og jsr has dragula which is hilarious to me and a point in its favor tho.) #and future obviously has more story stuff going on. and hits my preferred sweet spot of zaniness i think #but og jsr is just straight up more fun for me #the combat in future is not great imo and i def prefer how FUCKING STRESSFUL og jsr's enemies are LOL #but that said - i am also a guy who likes to Dodge things more than fight them! #and also while future's maps are like. big and complex #that actually makes things HARDER for me because my ass gets lost SUPER easily #so the comparatively more compact maps in og jsr is more up my alley #i also like og jsr's fucked up overly precise grinding/combos mechanics because im sick in the head. #ultimately i think theyre both flawed but enjoyable games though #and their flaws are very endearing to me #so many things in both games that just leaves me like “WHAT?? BUT WHY????” but in a charmed sort of way #why the fuck do the 'exit' routes in og jsr exist. actively hostile game design #the jsrf noise tank cleanup. why even #those games just Did Shit man

hannah montana but she is in DOOM 

i drew this because vargskelethor did a Linux destruction stream that was hannah montana themed and he played DOOM and it ended up destroying the system. so i had to get the idea of this out im so sorry lmfao

its kinda half-finished but its ok i was tired of working on it. down below is where I turned the DOOM enemies into vargskeletons with their little mushroom hats

and the initial sketch that I said I wouldn’t fix but did anyway because i dont know my priorities

#vargskelethor #vinesauce #hannah montana #DOOM #fanart #stupid #idk how to tag this man #doodle #i never played doom idk what those creatures are called but tbh looking at the cover kind of made me want to check it out #i own the game just never thought to play it #this also made me realize i wish there were more nonsexualized female action game protagonists #like samus or something #like laura is cool but he whole appeal is sexy big triangle booba girl you know #and i looove laura #did you see the backlash there was when they turned her from an f cup to a d cup #does anyone actually break down this shit #i am the onkly one who cares!!! /hj #anyway sorry for whatever the fuck this is kjahgkjh

chin in hands

idk folks. tonight i'm just thinking about the one (1) scene we get with matt and ashley. and mourning that we didn't get to see them interact more in-game. or like. at all.

i just think

i just. think.

theirs would be such an interesting friendship to dissect and study under a microscope skdlfjlskdfjsldfj

#queenie rambles about supermassive #if ashley lets matt look thru the viewfinder his reaction isnt anger towards her but exasperation and disappointment at emily #'maybe it's nothing' 'is it EVER just NOTHING with em?!' 'i mean...i guess not...' hmm methinks you two have talked about this #matt is clearly so comfy joking around w ash and her with him but hes kind of aloof and distant w josh and chris??? #which makes sense when you take into account they were prob in diff grades but we're led to believe those are ashley's BOYS so like....... #what's going on between you two huh. what's. what's all this then. #in t(a) i def had jess be the one who sort of convinces ashley to join in on the prank but the older and wiser i get the more i wonder..... #was it perchance matt #i have too many things to write rn and i am promising myself not to start new shit until i finish old shit but man. im just. thinkin. #did ashley go to matt's football games despite absolutely not understanding the rules??????? #did matt ALWAYS volunteer to be ashley's partner when there were group projects because he knew she'd take it seriously and not nag him???? #after josh and chris graduated did they hang out together at school dances?????????????????? #WHAT DID THEY WRITE IN EACH OTHER'S YEARBOOKS #oh im deep in it now i guess #WHAT KIND OF HUG IS H APPENING WHEN THEY SEE EACH OTHER AT THE END OF THE NIGHT IN THE HELICOPTER

Hate to say it but I think the drama around Spider-Man 2 is good evidence for the idea that video game criticism is dying cause people will really see a sequel that retains the basic gameplay of the first one but refines it and expands on it which is exactly what a good sequel game should do and be like "what do you mean they didn't completely change everything from the ground up this is basically just a dlc"

#i'm gonna make a comparison to the arkham games cause those games did the same thing #and cause the spider-man games are considered to be marvel's answer to that series #if arkham city came out today people would probably be saying the exact same shit and it would be just as stupid #shut up tristan

[ask-artsy-oncie]

ORAS could have been so good if the gameplay had just been overhauled properly.

#Stupid shit #Pokemon #Like!!! It has AMAZING visuals/redesigns/environment designs/music/writing/the BEST random encounter system in the series #But its post-game is absolutely uncomparable to the original with the exception of how *cool* the deoxys encounter is #And the gameplay does not hold a fucking candle to the original at all. #It's one of those pokemon games you just blow through and that unfortunately makes it not as fun and also relatively forgettable #God... but what could have been if they cared enough to preserve what the original had in terms of gameplay #Like I played Alpha Sapphire and Emerald at around the same time over the last year or so. Revisited them together. #And ORAS did so fucking well in so many ways... and yet Emerald was way more memorable #So many battles in the original games actually mattered and had to be thought about with genuine strategies if you didn't just grind one mo #In ORAS literally none of it matters. There is zero challenge whatsoever. #And I KNOW I know it's because game freak realized that they were releasing this game to a market of kids with 'no attention span' #So their goals were different #But man does it make for a shit turn-based RPG to approach things that way.

I will say while I've loved most of elden ring I'm really glad I'm down to just 2 more main boss fights (malenia + maliketh) before I start the endgame boss fights... whew 😮‍💨

#really gorgeous world but frankly its unnecessarily long. theyre gonna kill me for saying that but its true.. #some areas/bosses just become overly repetitive when the game is THAT massive like its unavoidable #they tried rly hard to distinguish every area + honestly its a great effort but it couldve been half the size and just as good #like i just did the elphael ulcerative tree spirit bc i wanted to finish millicents questline. and come on man we didnt need another one #the design is sick + loooove the animation. but its a bad fight not bc of the difficulty but bc its janky as hell #lock on doesnt work properly bc of its size and the way it moves. u cant see shit on ur screen fighting them melee its just hack n slash #and theyre always in the most dogshit arenas possible for them like spaces w no maneuverability. its just not fuuuun #especially after youve fought 5 or 6 already earlier on in the game.. #and its cool to have variations like the scarlet rot ones but we already HAD one of those just before lake of rot!! the gimmicks worn off #i did everything except maliketh in farum azula today as well and again. it didnt need to be that long. killing beastmen gets boring #after like the first 20 combat is just mashing buttons.. even the platforming is getting dull bc ive done 120 hours of it now #and theres only so many combinations of ladders and hallways and so on that u can possibly cram in here.. #i say all this with fondness like i truly do love it. but it couldve been a lot tighter! regardless ill still 100% complete it #and i get most ppl dont try to get every single armament and talisman etc so they probably dont waste time FULLY exploring like i am #ahhh. anyway ill probably do malenia and maliketh tmr bc im right outside both of their arenas. and then call it quits this weekend #ill get my first ending next weekend probably... and hopefully by june ill have 100% and then i can play something else 😭 #ik the dlc comes out in june but ill probably take a month or two break before i get to that #it doesnt even neeeed a dlc.......its excessive as it is just make a new game by this point ahhhhh #anyway its like 1am i need to SLEEP. i said i would go out to watch for northern lights but its overcast and im tired and my roommate #didnt wanna come with.. so i was gonna go to bed early instead but i guess that didnt happen lol #gonna feel like shit tomorrow bc i have to be up early to take my meds and she'll wake me up anyway.. but cross that bridge #typing is getting difficult bc im so sleepy okay goodnight everyone #.diaries

I didn’t get a wink of sleep and I don’t regret looking up some of the Barbie’s people are selling

#I never knew that Barbie made a doll set for a romance novel and that Barbie was gorgeous omg #and I got Sparta kicked back to like 2006 cuz I saw so many Scooby doo Barbies #the daphne dolls were gorge as usual and reminded me of Barbie.com when it had all the fun games #cuz I remember a Scooby doo page on the site #it’s just so cool seeing some of the dolls from my years that I forgot about #and seeing some other ones for the first time was so cool too! #I even saw some glitter fairy dolls from the fairytopia line I completely forgot about #like the ones that had like glitter water or some shit in the wings and another duo that lit up #man we had some really cool Barbie’s in the 2000s #tho I did get a little sad when I found a nutcracker book that had a happy birthday note in it from grandma and grandpa #I always get a little sad when I find those type of little notes in books people are selling

[Timmy Turner voice] I wish every Links Meet AU that uses Marin as a phantom to haunt and traumatize Link goes to hell no matter what

#No I am not vaguing any specific links meet au bc ive already seen four different ones that do this #Fun Fact! You can give ALTTP!Link different character conflict! #That doesn't butcher the themes and ending of one of the games! #And reduce a female character and arguably LOZ's first complex character to a flat source for man angst #Marin would murder Link if she found out he was remembering her and Koholint in trauma and tragedy #Rather than treasuring its memory and celebrating its existence #GENUINELY framing Link as wildly traumatized by the events of Link's Awakening the way so many ppl do #Completely destroys all thematic coherence in the game's ending and makes it wildly unsatisfying #Yes Koholint disappearing was sad. No Link did not kill an island no it would not haunt him like a ghost #It's a treasured memory and a net positive experience! I have OPINIONS on this and I'm CORRECT #And I'm calling out Links Meet AUs specifically bc those are the biggest offenders #Of stripping everyone else of depth and focus for the sake of white boy Link #If ur lucky then Zelda still has character depth but everyone else* is shit out of luck basically #*Exceptions apply ofc #Lots of stuff that's not links meet aus also interprets Marin in ways I don't personally like #I am picky #Some of which I'd argue are just. Bad. #But at least they often make an effort with her character #Links Meet AUs are the Link Only Show tho and I'm ANNOYED bc I WANT TO LIKE THEM #I AM A SUCKER FOR MULTIVERSE SHIT. U DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH THIS PAINS ME #Anyway. L + ratio + you did not consider the thematic implications of ur fanproject and it annoys me :( #My posts #Loz #Link's awakening #update when i first made this post i was genuinely not intending to single out any specific links meet aus #however i have since crunched the numbers and two thirds of the marin tag on ao3 is linked universe #and i would like to make it clear. i have no real issue with the actual comic or its portrayal of marin #mostly bc marin has not actually appeared or been addressed in the actual comic at all #however i do hope the linked universe FANDOM goes to hell no matter what

#ive started printing out my fave fics for my own personal collection #AKA stories to bring while i play the waiting game doing adult responsibilities #and holy shit idk why i havent started doing this soon - ive read of people feeling emotional of holding their fave fics in their hands #feeling it in the physical world and bruh i get it now. i get it. holding 'sola fide' and 'burnt ice cream' in my hands had me feeling #so many things - mainly emotional and idk i just feel so strongly about fics and feel so grateful to exist in the same timeline where #writers share their stories with us. and holding it in my hands like my fave books got me feeling emotional #i did not do fancy bookbinding - but i dream to do so one day #its also insane how many pages many of these are in the physical world -- like the stories i want to print are 150k+ word count and i plan #to slowly work up to that but man that is insane (w/ authors out here writing big volumes of stories + me reading with pure dedication) :O #kudos to those that read till the end of these tag rambles filled with mistypes :0

the music for the colgera battle is quite delightful (wow i just need to say i like it. goodness) its a shame i couldnt really properly hear it while actually playing on account of having to sit right next to a loud ac but listening to it fully the other day was nice. took me a few weeks but i can appreciate it now - and listen ... im a simple guy, the rito village theme being incorporated into a section of it is just wow :-( ....... big leitmotif fan. walking into zoras domain is going to kill me

#music is the only thing important to me actually. #when i played botw i spent a lot of time dilly dallying as one could say. basically just splorin. and riding my horse around in literal #circles #it took me years to do more than 2 of the divine beasts ... LOL. #anyway. in botw i always did mipha first but as of late noted to myself that when i replay botw sometime in the future im going to head for #vah medoh first .... revalis gale is my best friend #i sort of took that over to totk and after a few days i was like okay im going to rito village im curious #i think im going to have very fond memories of that in the future. i really enjoyed doing all of that :-) #i want to say - totk very much so has had the ability to give me new ''wow'' moments that i had in botw #and gosh .... thinking about how ive played these two games at very different points in my life ... ahhh #in my totk playing i have been very much spacing out the main objective stuff. i did get around to rito village somewhat quickly #like perhaps a few days after i got the game (finished the tutorial area on the first night and just went to towns and explored yadada #for a few days after that #and then i did gerudo town a little while after that #so far i have not ventured to goron city or zoras domain. ive explored a little bit in each of those regions but have not yet gone and #committed. although goron city is next #ohh i did a labyrinth the other day. wicked fucked up man they put half this shit in the sky also randomly The hands were there #scary. no more elaboration #back to music. i learned to play miphas melody on piano a few years back #i really need to get back to piano ... learning to duet kass' theme with my sibling but ive been slacking on my half #hyrule warriors age of calamity was insane purely for hearing a version of miphas theme but for battle #like duude. are you hearing this? dude........ #just remembered sidon. dont even get me started .......... sniffle #so crazy when there is music

The way y’all got that Mammon drabble to almost 2k notes gotDAMN

#I wish I still wrote for OM like I used to #y’all ate that shit up (and so did i) #the game just became so meticulous and I didn’t have the time or energy for it anymore 😭 #maybe I could go thru all my requests again and just do all the hc ones?? #and then open requests back up to like one chat per request #cause also doing all seven (to 11) chars per request is also hard #idk man we’ll see lol #Drabbles are also pretty easy to do so maybe I’ll just stick to those for now #about #about me #about my blog #about the blog

darknet pet owner forums, baby. (i feel like cain wouldn’t know how to access it though)

When asked why he’s not on the darknet pet owner forums Cain says he’s simply too busy to bother with it but in actuality he just can’t figure that shit out

#ALDJSLDHAKDJSGSKD #realistically there probably are some shady services for dealing with this business #Cain knows just enough to do what he needs to for his job beyond that he gets lost #this also brought to mind the image of Cain asking zander to figure smth out for him regarding all that #and Zander is just like. /DO I LOOK LIKE I KNOW HOW TO DO THAT?????/ #he’d be SO mad #if he asked wren and supervised his computer activity for maybe an hour he could probably figure it out. probably. #and then wren can go back to work like ✨GUESS WHAT I DID✨ #now I have the image of Cain supervising wren using a computer #like a teacher standing there making sure you don’t go to coolmathgames.com #come on man it’s cool MATH games it’s educational he swears- #I’m sorry that’s dumb I’m all over the place with this ALSJAKDHAKDHSDKHSSKSHK #anyways.

well i finished renegade. i sure was renegading all over the place

#it was alriiiight.... but man i hate to say it but i think i have more complaints than praises #i DID like florins new execution route and i liked talons deal. the entire end of night spell deal was horrifying and i loved it #i love that genre of horror like ''you die twice when you get forgotten after death'' #so seeing it play out here was horrifying in a good way. talon and amber's deaths were both so fucking good like goddamn #they were just as heartbreaking as they needed to be. especially ambers like when you go talk to tesla after #but. man i dont think meta games are for me cause ngl i was sorta just like ''aight.'' to most of the meta here #like that was the one thing about talon i didnt care for. i thought ''everyone i know and love is going to die and god is screaming at me'' #was a fine enough motivation to go crazy and become a rift. i thought it was compelling and tragic and a good thing to do #with a new character. but then he started going ''in older versions of the game i wasnt even there i was just a prop for the backstory'' #and thats sorta when i started tuning out. like i cant explain why but i feel it made the scene more... cheap? #i think just cause personally ive seen that motivation a lot in meta games before and its gotten old to me #tbh the entire meta angle is whats really dragging this down to me. dont get me wrong i love eizen and his scenes #but i dont see why we have to canonize the game's update cycles as like a critical part of the world #and then theres m2 who i have mixed feelings on. cause i love the character type of ''ive been through so much shit idc anymore'' #and they end up being kinda goofy and saying inappropriate/out of pocket things while trying not to discuss The Horrors #ive written more than one of those types of characters. but with m2 its like she doesnt know how to turn that off #like spacea and tiempa's deaths being a tera raid parody where they joke about being in a crashing plane and get bashed by extra melias #it just felt like. unfitting. (also a nitpick but goddamn that scene made my head hurt with how much the screen wobbled) #like really? this is the sendoff they get in the fucked up and evil route? and idk i just dont think m2 was all that funny. #she was more grating than anything tbh. and i just feel like her existence and the bad timeline is just Too Much #like there were already so many plotlines and arcs and do we Really need a new-ish character right before the climax #idk. im hoping v14 is more cohesive in this department #for now im taking a much needed break from this game lol

[volfoss]

I cannot recommend enough starting game series from the start. Both because if you get used to the clunky gameplay of earlier ones, the later ones will be easier (from experience, going the other way just makes the originals seem IMPOSSIBLE) and also bc it does in fact help w understanding the story. Also because honestly old games are so cool

#twist rambles #like. if i started with the wit/cher three (which i did) and was not patient enough to learn the mechanics of 1. i wouldn't have experienced #my fave game in the series. if i got into kof with like 13 or 15 #i wouldn't want to play 95 or 99. due to them being hard as shit. but im so glad i DID because the plot in those is very good #like. idk i think more people need to play older games when theyre accessible to them. i dont want to see hyper realistic+ #games everywhere. when are we gonna post game sprites that are like 20 pixels maximum and be like wow 😳 i want her #all of that to say. emulating helps a ton w branching out w stuff and idk. just play older games and experience them #i will never feel the stress i felt when playing certain atari games EVER bc those are insane. anyways god. long and rambly but i think more #f/e fans should be lusting after the rly old guys. where is the hype for like saji <- does not know if ppl care abt him or not #or like. barts/bartz. anyways. yes please go emulate and also experience old games. I promise theyre fun and still worth playing #and it will expose u to the worst bullshit mechanics known to man. i love old rpgs and ols trpgs and i wouldn't have known that if i didnt #look into older ones. and thats very cool for me. nes rpgs were always daunting for me. and for me to be enjoying them this much? its cool #sorry. i will ramble in the tags for 50 years. its my job.

Calling it a night and I'm going to try and fall asleep before 2 in the morning

#and i want to ramble in the tags because eh i guess chatty mood #one thing i am quickly noticing looking at a few covers of spider-man & venom related stuff #is that the spider-man white-eyes design is so fucking cool actually #that's one thing that i am absolutely 100% on the comics side for #those white eyes just do Not look the same if they're not drawn in 2d #their design is so fun they feel so expressive #i feel like i did when i drew that like dozen of little bill ciphers making different faces #like i just unlocked a new thing you can do with your art and it's on my level and i need to try it out #i feel too sick for drawing though #when into the spiderverse came out and people were posting spidersonas i remember vaguely wanting to join in #but i feel like only now am i truly having the epiphany of how neat his suit looks #and i really do Not like the direction they took it in the movies #like the realism of it is kind of a turnoff for me #i like the way it looks in a 2d drawing but less the more realistic vibe of movies/recent video games #i love stylised shit!!!!! i love when stuff is stylised and works in ways that wouldn't necessarily work well irl!!! #i love the lack of texture and the textures you only get from a drawing #the fucking eyes...... i love those eyes #also i think i could be sold on the big pointy needle teeth venom has haha #i'm not too big into tonnes of teeth - two/four yeah i love vampires #but the mouthful of teeth was just a little too much for me at first #but the more i see it the less i find it yucky #i showed my friend a picture because i am incapable of being normal #and they were like oh he's so scary!!! #i got used to it personally and i just saw a style of vfx i'm not super fond of #ANYWAY. i love talking. if someone wants me to be background noise in vocal chat one day i love doing that #wow i have a ramble tag now
