#It is totally for vibes and vibes alone

I've been feeling a monumental crash out on the wind and tbh the more I talk to people and think about it the more justified I feel I am

the red bells lament is a fucking awesome otome game, and you can tell the even if team worked on it. those two genuinely give me hope that at least the amulit side of voltage is gonna continue making amazing games.

i'm sad i've finished it. i'll miss almost every character. it also had a nb badass, whom i lov very much. mulberry notice meeee, i can treat you better than vlad ever could.

i hope we get a fandisc, or a sequel, and more from this team!

just randomly remembered that during my like 10+ attempts at the shadow yukiko fight i more or less consistently ran out of revival beads so yosuke was just dead (well unconscious but whatever) on the ground for like half the fight gfhfjvhfhfhd-

I've been here for a week but honestly. The only complaint I have about the Gladiator fandom that's emerged out of thin air is that I wish you guys did less bi erasure. For real. Please. It kind of actually hurts.

Not even tagging this because I don't want to stir shit but seeing it over and over and over just really rubs it in how people don't see bisexuality (or pansexuality) as valid orientations or expressions of one's orientation. There's only straight and gay.

I hate it so much and I wish there were places I didn't have to be reminded.

Well shit. I saw that there’s a LOST Halloween prompt thing going on right before I got in the shower and now I have an entire cute little fic planned out for the first prompt and this doesn’t sound like a problem, I know, but believe me, it is because it’s midnight and I have to get up in roughly six hours to be a nanny and I don’t think I’m gonna sleep tonight because my brain is gonna be working out all the kinks of this idea so I can write it during the kiddo’s naptime tomorrow

Also I was supposed to be spending this month wrapping up my short-term fics so I can spend November focusing on my original story

Whoops?

(but this is such a cute idea and it’s also got potential to be a little angsty and uhhgh, I need to write this story; it’s calling to me from the void)

Also thanks to @lost-halloween for putting this together (even if it means I get less sleep this month than usual because brain is excited about ideas)

just blocked someone who followed with my hometown area code who was the same age as me…

they didn’t have any pics where I could see their face (and honestly I’m not sure it was their content) but I don’t wanna risk it.

idk like… at least announce yourself or something if you recognize me lol.

me: trying to figure out what the deal w/ non-japanese sorcerers is

reddit: bc of the barrier there's more sorcerers in japan proportionally. it's like a greenhouse effect. sorcerer's are super rare outside of japan bc the lack of cursed energy

me: okay so we're just ignore the nyc exists? or that places like honduras get called the "murder capitol of the world"? bc like if things like curses and curse energy are heavily related to negative emotion and large population and shit then i call some kinda bullshit. still deciding on which but there's bullshit afoot.

Silly Game Time: You're alone and listening to music. Which song(s) are you singing along with?

(For me, I will always belt out "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor and "On My Way" by Maxton Waller.)

I am disappointed about how this BG3 experiment turned out but I cannot be too disappointed because I also learned some things in the process, namely about what makes games "work" for me and the difference between appreciating something's artistic value and enjoying the experience of it. cut for length

I don't enjoy Larian games. which feels bad to say, because I think Larian games are beautiful and intricate and full of amazing worldbuilding. why would I not enjoy that? it's very simple -- they are mechanically dense in a way that I find very unrewarding. and that feels bad to say, because the way people tend to interpret "this doesn't work for me" is as "this is bad and shouldn't exist", and sometimes I internalise that. but I know damn well that's not what I'm saying. what I am saying is that what makes games enjoyable for me is different than what it is for the people who enjoy Larian games, which is a perfectly neutral concept

I had to compare how I feel when playing the games I love to how I felt when I was playing BG3. Can Calah pointed out that he has never heard so many frustrated noises per minute from me while playing a game that didn't end up in me immediately dropping the game, and that's a good point. at one point I was literally in tears. this is not because the game is difficult to me. it is, in a way, but it's not like Bloodborne where I literally couldn't get past the first mob of enemies, lol. that didn't make me feel bad, I knew I wasn't gonna get through that game, I just wanted to try it anyway and laugh at how bad I was at it. what BG3 is to me is taxing.

here's an example: I'm familiar with isometric RPGs and especially their movement set. but BG3 is like... some hybrid of isometric and straight 3D, and I constantly want to move the camera down behind my character and use WASD for movement, expecting the camera to circle around the environment in a 3D fashion when I move my mouse. and this is a minor peeve -- not even a peeve, more like a "the way this game looks to me and the way this game is meant to be played are at odds, apparently" -- but it sets a baseline level of minor irritation. like a lil IRL debuff. so then when I hit something else that is irritating (like gnarly turn-based combat scenarios or having to reload a bunch of times trying to get past one NPC without activating a gnarly turn-based combat scenario), I'm already irritated, so I have less mental resources to deal with this new thing. I did not immediately recognise this was happening, but it's definitely the main roadblock for me

last night I went to do some research to see if I could figure out ways to make my Act I experience a little less taxing. I love learning tips and tricks about games I play, or finding out how the game works behind the scenes, stuff like that. when I look up stuff about ESO or FFXIV or Mass Effect or whatever, I feel curious and excited to try out whatever new thing I learn. (this is why I don't read the ESO subreddit at night, because then I learn something and I immediately want to boot up the game and try it out and I can't bc I'm supposed to be going to sleep and I get mad LOL) but I didn't feel that way at all last night. I just felt... tired. the curiosity and excitement did not magically appear. because ultimately this is just not a game I can play. not right now, at least. and yes, this upsets me, because I wanted to play it. but enjoyment cannot be forced and it's not fair to myself to go "look at all these other people having a great time, why can't you be more like them?" (talk about a line straight out of the Bad Parenting Playbook lmaooo)

yes, I would have loved to find out what it's like to be half-illithid, I would have loved to fall in love with Wyll, I would have loved to learn more about Faerûn and the various cultures and wow, would I have loved to see the Underdark, finally! I won't be meeting that drider guy I kept seeing gifs of and that makes me sad! but "the journey is the important thing" is never more true than when it comes to video games -- if I do not enjoy the minute-to-minute gameplay, if the journey itself is not inspiring joy in me, then it won't matter if I somehow push myself long enough to get to those moments. because I will be so stressed and tired and annoyed by the time I get there that I won't even enjoy the victory. so then is it really worth it?

the insight I've gained about myself as a gamer from failing to become a BG3 player is, however, quite worth it, I think
