Me, fondly remembering my playthroughs of FFVII, VIII, IX, X, X-2, and XII: I don't need more blogs I don't need more blogs I don't need more blogs I do --
Though if I did RP as anyone, it'd hands-down be Beatrix from IX.

The Goblin Gaming Jubilee
"Gamers!" Said the Goblin King, "bring them all to me!
Challenge them I will!" He said, "A Gaming Jubilee!"
And so The Goblin Guard they searched the land for goblins great and small,
Seeking goblin gaming champions for the Royal Gamer Ball
For the Goblin King was tired, on his royal gaming chair:
"Life, I play on easy mode. No gamer do I fear."
So goblins from across the land, they rose to meet the king
"What shall we play?" They asked of him, who chortled "Everything!"
"Magnuvox and PS2! 3D-Boy and Wii!
Every console in my gaming horde, handheld and PC!"
"Behold! Your king is master of all the games within!
With a jolly chortle roared the king: "Let the Goblin Games Begin!"
And so the goblins got to gaming more than any gamed before.
They gamed their very goblin best, but the king, he wiped the floor.
The Goblin King was sullen, to the goblin guard he cried:
"Can any gamer challenge me?" But, a little voice replied:
"The surface world has gamers! They are famous far and wide!"
"The greatest of their ranks is known as Jerma985!"
The Goblin King demanded: "bring this champion to me!"
"We shall hold another Gamer Ball!" So the Goblin King decreed.
"Oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit" said Jerma to the crowd
"What the fuck is happening, is this even allowed?"
Said Jerma to the Goblin King, "Hey where the fuck am I?"
"My court beneath the mountain, you will goblin-game or DIE!"
Said the Goblin King to Jerma: "I was told you would impress."
"Chat, I will not fuck the Goblin King. It's against the TOS."
And so Jerma Game'd the Goblin King and matched him play for play
The gaming jubilee continued for a season and a day.
But neither gamer wavered, for their gamer skills were matched.
But Jerma, he was clever and a gamer plan he hatched.
"Hey demon guy, I have a plan to settle this for real."
"We're both too good at Goblin Games, so I have a new deal:"
"We settle this like gentlemen, an all-or-nothing test.”
“A single game of goblin-kart, and whoever wins is best.”
“Accepted,” said the Goblin King “I will not back down.”
“Whosoever wins this race will take the Goblin Gaming Crown”
With a final swig of gamer juice and a final gamer snack,
Jerma and the Goblin King began the final track,
Never in the history of all of goblinkind
Has there ever been a gaming feat so skillful and refined.
Jerma and the Goblin King, equal masters of their sport
Played a perfect game of goblin-kart there before the court.
The goblins of the kingdom could not believe their eyes,
For Jerma and the Goblin King achieved a perfect tie.
The Goblin King was silent, and quiet as a stone,
And what the Goblin King did next, no goblin could have known.
He laughed a hearty goblin laugh, and held out his goblin hand
“Jerma985,” he said, “you are not the greatest gamer in the land.”
“So-” said Jerma985 “Do I still have to die?”
“Worry not your gamer heart” the Goblin King replied.
“For Jerma, you’ve rekindled my goblin-gaming-flame
and reminded me of why, my friend, I love to goblin-game.”
“Hey yeah this was fun” Said Jerma, to the Goblin King
“If you like, we could do, you know, another goblin gaming thing.”
And so Jerma and the Goblin King, they parted ways as friends
But this, dear reader, is not where our goblin-tale ends.
For in honor of his gamer friend, the Goblin King Decreed:
“This day shall mark the yearly Goblin Gaming Jubilee!”

📢 Sappy, sentimental, nerd post ahead 📢
I got Kingdom Hearts in October 2002 when I was 8 years old. My family had just moved into a new house after my parents reunited from a nasty divorce. My dad and I went to Best Buy one night to look for a new microwave and he ended up letting me get this game that I’d been wanting for MONTHS. I’d seen every commercial for it on Disney channel and I was SO excited to finally hold it in my hands. I barely had any furniture in my room at the time - just my bed and my TV on the floor. I ran inside, overwhelmingly excited, turned on my PS2 and saw what was the most beautiful opening to any game or movie I’d ever seen before. Simple and Clean filled me with these big, huge, unexplainable feelings that still stick with me to this day. My friend Sarah (who was 3 years older than me) started playing it every weekend with me when she would come over. She was much better at it than I was and I loved watching her play because of it. My room felt like its own little world when it was just the two of us on the edge of my bed flying through Neverland until 1 in the morning.
After a long winter and my ninth birthday had passed, my parents were back to fighting. Big fights that no 9 year old should be subjected to. My mom would leave for days on end, succumbing to her addiction. My dad’s work would force him to go out of town on a weekly basis. So it was just me and a fridge full of frozen dinners to tide me over until one of my parents came back most of the time. I was an only child doing the very best I could to keep myself afloat. Things were dark to say the least and I was having to grow up at an alarming rate, but the one, *single* thing that kept my inner child alive during this was this silly little RPG that I loved so much. Even in an empty house on those nights when I really didn’t want to be alone, I still had Sora and Neverland. I still had those weekends with Sarah to look forward to. Things were far from ideal but I mean it wholeheartedly when I say this game saved me. It was my biggest source of comfort during some of the hardest times and I’ll always be so thankful I had it.
Somehow, I’m turning 30 this year and I’m still getting to watch new trailers come out for it. I’m still playing it with my friend Sarah on the weekends, only now, we’re both good at it. It’s followed me for almost my entire life and I still very much feel like that weird 8 year old girl jumping up and down at Best Buy whenever new content for it comes out.
I recently got a Kingdom Key tattoo as a tribute to the spikey-haired boy who made me laugh when I didn’t think I could. Who always reminded me to approach life with kindness and to find strength in the light. Who in so many ways, saved my life. Over and over again. I’m so happy to have a piece of him on me forever.
🤍

Not that deep of a question, but it got me by suprise, so here we are!
Been listening to rin playlist when kingdom hearts dearly beloved starts playing, do we have a fellow fan of the game or just the ost?
I used to play KH2 and KH: Chain of Memories on PS2 back when I was a kid 😆 And yeah, some of the soundtracks still stick with me even to this day and “Dearly Beloved” is certainly one of them and one of my all-time favs.
I used to just sit on the menu for an extra minute or so just to listen to “Dearly Beloved” before actually entering the game 😄 It’s such a beautiful and calming song.
But unfortunately, I haven’t kept up with the series lately nor have I played the more recent instalments in the series.

What is your favorite system to play kh on? I can’t play on anything that’s not a ps1/ps2 that’s what my older sister introduced me to it on but i haven’t had either console in like a decade 😭
I've always played/got all the games in the series on the console they came out on, and prefer them all on their original platforms, so if this is about the original Kingdom Hearts, ps2 is the one for me.
But I probably like the ps4 most out of the newer consoles, so that'd be my second choice~!
(I do wish it came out on the switch on a non-Cloud version tho', could walk around just playing KH1 24/7)

Jojo I've been listening to the Kingdom hearts 1 title screen music non-stop because a friend of mine told me that It was good and now I actually want to start playing the entire series like you don't understand. The song just gives off a calming atmosphere and I'm legitimately curious on where to start.
I know that you Played Kingdom hearts before because I see you mention it on your blog multiple times. And I was wondering where you first started on the Kingdom hearts series.
(I know Kirby is your main priority at the moment but I couldn't resist asking this question, also FNAF rules ngl)
OHOHOHO. OHHHHH. These are floodgates I have yet to open on this Tumblr but I am a huge, HUGE Kingdom Hearts fan. I am not currently in a Kingdom Hearts phase (since it’s been a few years since we’ve gotten anything new). But when I am, I am utterly consumed hahaha. It was the first game series I was a truly a fan of. Years and years before I learned about Kirby.
Kingdom Hearts music is INCREDIBLE and I could talk forever about it. I’ve been to three of their World Tour concerts when they came to the US. The OST albums on Spotify consumed my top statistics this year :P with every new game, I always quietly sit and listen to the new version of Dearly Beloved on the main menu for a while before I begin as a personal sentimental tradition. :’)
I started playing Kingdom Hearts almost at the very beginning. I followed the series across all the different platforms it released on over the years. Thankfully it’s easier than ever to play now! If you’re interested, I recommend getting your hands on the “All-In-One Package” for the PlayStation or PC- whatever you happen to have (however I hear the switch version is extremely flawed. I don’t have it but maybe be careful with that one).
Some people would recommend playing them in chronological story order since it can be quite a wild ride. You can look up the chronological order out there. But my personal recommendation is to play the games in the order they released so you get the same experience as the people who followed the series from the beginning like me hehehe. But do whatever you’d like! I love this series very very much, through all of its triumphs, and even for its flaws and the absolutely wild story it has,
…because where else can you have a frame with a realistic looking Orlando Bloom as Will Turner Pirates of the Caribbean, with a cartoonishly bright Goofy staring blankly in the background? Or Yao from Mulan socking Donald Duck in the face?! I love it I love it I love it anyone can talk to me about Kingdom Hearts whenever they want!!
Here’s a condensed version of how I got into the game. Just for fun. :)
Tumblr media
Free games?! I already loved my PS1. Now could I pass this opportunity up?! Thanks EJ, for changing my life with your generosity. If you ever see this, hope you’re well. You rock.
Anyway- The life-changing part of the game happened to me almost immediately lol. Like in the opening of the game and the tutorial section haha
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I was instantly hooked. It’s been a huge positive influence in my life. 20 years later, I still remember the emotions I had playing each of the games for the first time. I’ve probably played KH2 a few dozen times, just on the PS2! I can’t wait to see where the next game takes us- but if there’s one thing you have to be as a Kingdom Hearts fan…. Is patient! xD
TLDR: I love Kingdom Hearts and I hope you do too.

Legally Stars: I just. Had. The craziest idea. Based on the release date of a certain game.
So it's 2002, a good amount of time after the mess in Italy. Jotaro wants to help the kids take a breather, but he isn't sure how. Then he sees an ad for a video game and he pauses.
Right there near the bottom of the poster is, of all characters, Donald Duck. He looks at it more closely and... yep, that's the Disney logo, along with some company called Squaresoft.
He isn't the biggest fan of video games, but Joseph did get the kids a PS2 last Christmas, and Ungalo is a huge fan of Disney. Jolyne less so, but she still likes the company and their movies.
He buys the game, but he's still doubtful. How good can this 'Kingdom Hearts' be?
(9 years later, Pucci is beaten into unconsciousness by a Bohemian Rhapsody-summoned, spiky-haired kid wielding a giant key.)
I'll admit I don't know a whole lot about Kingdom Hearts but the fucking snort I let out reading this holy shit-
I regret nothing about making Ungalo a Disney fan because it opens up avenues of sheer insane bullshit like this and makes everything extrodinarily funnier, and it also just hit me that growing up........ Ungalo and the other kids are probably going to use their Stands a TON, especially given the fact they're in an environment where they can freely do so and explore things, and now I rotating ideas of how that would affect them
Ungalo would of course occasionally use Bohemian Rahpsody on his favorites, but after that gets a TON of attention, he also probably begins to get an appreciation for more niche, unknown media. He learns to control his Stand on a much smaller scale but spends time wondering what would happen if he fully cut loose
Rikiel likes to practice with finer controls and while his Stand can't be played with as safely as his siblings, that doesn't stop them from trying to come up with games so he won't feel left out. One of their favorites is a sort of sight based hide and seek where Rikiel Stands in a single spot and has to try and spot their hiding places and direct the rods to them
and Donatello LOVES walking around places and seeing what the ground can tell him. He knows a ridiculous amount of random, untimately meaningless gossip and loves to regale his siblings with stories of what he's heard. He usually doesn't do anything more recent than the last few years to save himself the awkwardness of knowing the people Under World shows him, but it's still very entertaining nontheless
Naturally when Jolyne obtains her Stand, they IMMEDIATELY jump as the oppurtinity. They'd of course always done their best to include her before, but now that she can actually see their Stands and has one of her own the possibilities are endless
I like to imagine the brothers all make sure to be very calm and un-serious about Stone Free. They little sister had to go through enough stress and fear getting her Stand in the first place, she doesn't need to be treated like she was something dangerous just because she had a powerful Stand. In there eyes, she's still their Jolyne, only now she can turn into string
Jolyne takes a shine to cats cradles and embroidery, but she is also unfairley hard to catch in her brother's opinion. She becomes crazily flexible and anytime when they wrestle or play tag, she'll simply slip out of any holds she's put in and wrap around her opponent so they're the one caught instead
but shifting gears a bit, this ALSO got me thinking of everything Post-Golden Wind and also just Jotaro being a Cool Dad/Uncle. After Jotaro very violently curbstomps Diavolo, I'd imagine there's a moment of hesitancy from the Bucci Gang because yeah this man came out of nowhere and just beat the shit out of the BOSS who's been giving us a lot of trouble like it was nothing, but all their worries abate when all four of the kids tackle him with a hug
it's only later they realize No, Mr.Jotaro Is That Scary, He's Just Got A Soft Spot For The Kids And Maybe Giorno

I love Kingdom Hearts.
The first game specifically slams down all of the keys on the piano of nostalgia in my heart.
Every time I hear Traverse Town, I get a soft comfort in my brain that reminds me of the times before my whole life went downhill, and I want to keep it that way.
I first was introduced to Kingdom Hearts by my uncle who owned a PS2. Beforehand, I already had knowledge of Final Fantasy games such as X.
This was all back in first grade, so my mind is a little foggy. I saw my uncle playing a game that wasn't one I've seen him play on his PS2. Of course, I asked him what it was. When he responded by saying it was a mix of Final Fantasy and Disney, I was obviously interested. You know, since I was super young, it's probably safe to assume that I liked Disney movies.
He started playing it, the whole intro sequence played with the remix of Simple and Clean, and I fell in love.
I would watch him play, and my dad would point out the Final Fantasy characters. All the ones I knew, and the ones that I didn't.
Of course I wanted to play, but I never got that far. I sucked at the combat, and I still kinda do to this day. So for the most part, I would wait until my uncle was willing to play that day.
I watched him complete the game. I loved it!
I have vague memories of drawing the heartless on the backs of my papers during class.
But after a bit, I dropped it. I have forgotten about the game that I had loved so much.
Fast forward to 3rd grade, and I hit a very rough patch in my life that I can't let go of to this day.
Of course, I developed more of an attachment to drawing, like I did back in 1st grade. But I used it more of a way to be happy and escape such terrible things in my life. Drawing made me happy, like it did in my past.
Over multiple rocky years, my art was developing, and I was proud of myself. But I still didn't have much contact with Kingdom Hearts. I didn't care about it, because there were so many other things that I liked. Those things inspired me to draw. I didn't need to remember Kingdom Hearts.
I didn't realize until I re-discovered Kingdom Hearts sometime in summer of last year that Kingdom Hearts had more than just the one game. It is a whole, amazing, kinda confusing, franchise.
And now, I have more knowledge on the series.
My art skills have improved.
I hope I keep a hold of these games for even longer than I had before.
They have a special place in my heart.
First grade me would be so happy for me as of now.
And really, that's all I want to do. Keep my inner child happy. Remind myself of the good times.
I'm glad I re-discovered this series. And I'm hoping you can keep your inner child happy, just like I can.
(Blake if you see this post, do NOT point out the possible mistakes in it. You know my memory is full of holes.)

tell me your thoughts on something (anything) (talk for as long or as short as you want)
:)
ok i've been looking for a reason to talk about this for a while and im just gonna go off the rails here
i recently started watching Colin LooksBack's disney villain retrospectives and I'm so damn obsessed with them. I've mentioned this before, I'm a disney fan through and through. No matter how much I painfully despise so many of their recent movies, nostalgia and the hope of finding something as good as their classics keeps me coming back, as disappointed as I am with their recent features from all sides of the company
I'm especially a disney history fan, I love learning about the first few decades of this company for some reason, their movies from that time aren't even my favorites but just all the old concept art and ideas from the imagineers is so cool to me. Mary Blair's work specifically, her art for Cinderella is stunning.
Disney villains specifically have just always been amazing to me. I was obsessed with Ursula as a kid, I thought she was the coolest freaking character. I love her design, her voice is amazing, I adored her then and I still do.
If we're talking about disney content creators though? Avelo (formerly known as Dreamsounds) has my heart and soul. Her videos are everything to me, they got me through covid. I was so sad when she left when she was getting her bottom surgery, worried she'd never return. I audibly gasped when I saw her return video show up on my recommended because I love her videos that much, and still do, even if it's not as disney focused.
I dunno, I think my disney obsession and Kingdom Hearts obsession go hand in hand (hah, that's a kingdom hearts song). I mean KH and disney are tied together by nature, but I got into KH for the disney. I found my moms old kh1 copy a while ago and I wished I could have the chance to play it on the ps2 (which we sadly don't have anymore). I haven't ever finished kh1, the controls are too clunky and I hate that stupid fucking camera. Even still, it's a game that matters to me a lot. KH2 does more for me in the end though, I reset the game so often just to play through Roxas's section in twilight town. it's nostalgic, not even just for playing kh but it's the type of fun me and my friends would have during our summer vacation. seeing roxas's life fall apart is scary because in some way i relate, the friendship he had with hayner, pence, and olette in the data twilight town wasnt real, and neither were my friendships with those people.
back to more regular disney, i fucking love the disney parks. honestly im so nostalgic for fastpass, i miss needing to go up to those little stands and put it on some card. i hate genie+ and lightning lane because it feels much less personal, so do the disney parks in general for me now. maybe it's because i'm getting older, i wouldnt be surprised if that was the case. even still, i love going. i mean cinderellas castle is my damn wallpaper (godddd i love that wallpaper so much....) and there are multiple of these "disney parks music" videos that i will actively use to fall asleep because idk nostalgia is a bitch. the boardwalk one is a personal favorite of mine, something about it just hits for me. me and my family went right after covid started to slow down, the boardwalk was having a soft opening and we got in for cheap. we got this amazing room overlooking the boardwalk itself, and for lack of a better word the vibes were incredible. like... WOW. we drove down, it sucked because it was exhausting and i cant be in small spaces like that for too long, but in the end it could've been worse. i had given myself this challenge to watch all the disney movies before going, i finished encanto on that drive. it's what got me back into so many of them, treasure planet specifically. it feels like every year ill just find myself obsessing over one specific disney movie around this time, last year it was tp and the tinkerbell movies. this year id say it's alice in wonderland, which ive had an obsession with for years. it's just a plotless fun movie with memorable characters that mean something to me. i dunno, im a sucker for anything nostalgic, twisted is my favorite starkid show for a reason, and i don't just love kh for it's crazy plot and characters (although that's most of it)
sorry this is REALLYYY long.....

Hey it me, zoomer Huey, I saw the post saying about the young gamers retro revival
But how retro because this book..
https://www.tumblr.com/gsirvitor/742534236498804736
Also yes people halo is going to be 23 this fall so it’s a retro game
Yes, don’t have to deal with horrific live service and micro transactions but the thing is….economic reasons
Like I been getting into kingdoms hearts and final fantasy….but I was a Xbox player so they are new ports in the ecosystem
And like I said, AC red will probably be a huge entry point for a lot of new fans. So it very likely they will be curious what the game Easter eggs are about so I will gladly help them get say get the Ezio Collection if the European Templars have dialogue mentioning they don’t want another Borgia fiasco since the game take places in the 1580’s-90’s and during this time many Templars went to the new world or other places to escape the “Dark Age” of the Templars order where it’s was about gaining power for selfish reasons rather further their causes
And about retro games, um…the same way a adult might want to watch old classic movies
Now I watched Fox’s miracle of 34th street a couple of years ago on Disney plus (actually I often use these streaming services to watch old shit like the muppet show) despite being at my depress state, I couldn’t help but smile at the Santa in it
It like for me, I found the Santa that inspired the ones your generation, my generation, and all those in between the Santa we had when we were kids. I’m glad the actor got the Oscar. And I’m more glad Hollywood graveyard help find his lost vase and people came to celebrate the actor new home. With him Unknowingly inspired the Christmas magic we love
Sorry using that as example
Also a lot of young gamers….were often too poor, too young, didn’t have enough resources when these old games came out. So we are interested in what these games that older gamers talk about even if we don’t have the nostalgia for it
Like Xbox Backwards Compatibility library….can someone please make a deal to bring the one transformers or marvel games back on it? Anyways, I’m 24 now, so there a lot of old 360 and og Xbox games I didn’t okay that I use bc for
And modern gaming, ugh feel like it intentionally designed for Twitch streamers and YouTuber gamers. Ugh halo infinite mp made just drop it all together
Oh gaming companies, a lot of modern gamers have JOBS so we might invest in a 1 or 2 live service games. Hell ac red might have a 3-4 live services era (ac Valhalla had 2 years of support) but I’m mostly invested in single player games
Well I’m autistic and I work 10 hour and 4 days a week work schedule. I am not interested dealing with try hards
Like I don’t understand this shock? Ac red is dead ass the only triple a gaming I’m probably going to be paying at launch at full price while the upcoming Star Wars game I’m probably going to get on sale
I feel like people are so focus on young people who refuse to consume pre 2012 media. There are those with a mentality that can stand old shit.

I think the first post your talking about was one I put up, I go with most anything PS2 on down for consoles, some PS2 aren't really "retro" but the divide for me is mostly based on hotfixes and micro-transactions so like Sims2 is the right age but i shift round on the retro bit since you could buy skins and such still gonna be retro I think.
Online games you could play for free online are retro too, but everyone will define it in their own way too so no hard and fast rules for me.

Classic and retro work together in tandem a lot, there is a difference but I don't want to tangent too far into that.
Now I watched Fox’s miracle of 34th street a couple of years ago on Disney plus (actually I often use these streaming services to watch old shit like the muppet show) despite being at my depress state, I couldn’t help but smile at the Santa in it
Watch some Mr Rogers, it's a soothing balm on depression, won't make it go away but at the end of a episode or two you'll feel loved, man you've never met in your life but you know he loved you, just the way you are.
Also a lot of young gamers….were often too poor, too young, didn’t have enough resources when these old games came out. So we are interested in what these games that older gamers talk about even if we don’t have the nostalgia for it
Nostalgia isn't required for retro, good games are good games.
Like Xbox Backwards Compatibility library….can someone please make a deal to bring the one transformers or marvel games back on it? Anyways, I’m 24 now, so there a lot of old 360 and og Xbox games I didn’t okay that I use bc for
If I'd had the money to get one of the first gen PS3's I'd have gotten one since they were built to still run PS1&2 games as well, once they took that away I had no desire to get the thing. Wii was great because you had the Wii shop for the older games and it also played GC games, Wii shop games weren't too pricey either.
And modern gaming, ugh feel like it intentionally designed for Twitch streamers and YouTuber gamers. Ugh halo infinite mp made just drop it all together
I've noticed that with some, they dial back the graphics and all that good stuff so they stream well, or at least leave the option of that. I figure as long as everyone is happy.
Oh gaming companies, a lot of modern gamers have JOBS so we might invest in a 1 or 2 live service games. Hell ac red might have a 3-4 live services era (ac Valhalla had 2 years of support) but I’m mostly invested in single player games
That's really all I do, even when battle net was going strong I still didn't sign up for D2 on there except rarely.
Like I don’t understand this shock? Ac red is dead ass the only triple a gaming I’m probably going to be paying at launch at full price while the upcoming Star Wars game I’m probably going to get on sale
Blizard had it right with World of Warcraft, at least at one point. The were selling the game disc for like $5 with a 2 week subscription make their money in the long game, not sure if anyone is doing that kind of thing anymore but they should be.
I feel like people are so focus on young people who refuse to consume pre 2012 media. There are those with a mentality that can stand old shit.
I love seeing people get into the games and stuff I enjoyed when I was younger, watching through the X-Files with a friend who's never seen it before and it's great seeing it through the eyes of someone who hasn't watched it.
Same with nerding out about games, as you've seen me do with FFVI here previously.
Most people that matter feel the same, so don't worry about any haters, they aren't worth your time or thought.

Sonic Heroes- the most fun game ever. i got my ps2 working last summer and played it again with jess and it was a blast TWT (i wish they'd remaster it but also i don't wanna pay for a new version bc my old one is Fine!)
Fortnite- it's just FUN alright? i love killing bitches. :))
TS4- unfortunately i like build mode and CAS mode more than actually playing. and cc shopping... that's so fun
Spyro- i didn't get to play spyro till a few years ago but it's really fun!
GTAV- it's been years since i touched it but i really liked driving around and shooting the shit out of the npcs. the story mode?? no idea how i felt about that. but buying a rocket launcher, shooting a bunch of people and climbing onto a tall building to shoot helicopters down? FUN :)
Rise of the Tomb Raider- this is the 2nd of the most recent trilogy i think??? i also enjoyed the 1st! but the third sucked :') (to me anyway) i love lara croft. she's so... ough... oh there was One good part of the third game that gave me goosebumps but the gameplay wasn't as good to me??
Breath of the Wild- I never finished it. but goddamn it was so pretty and fun.
Sdv- i haven't touched it in forever but i really enjoyed it when i did!
Anch- i played animal crossing every day for almost 2 years. and then i finally stopped because it had just become a tedious boring thing. i really would like to start a new island but... my island TWT can't do it uhhhhhhh if i keep going this'll get so long it'll be Annoying, but i love a lot of different games! :) ty for asking TWT <3

Gracias a @rainy-days-and-nights por el tag!
Cloud Strife/ Final Fantasy 7
The original blorbo, my first love (the one you never forget), my first wet and sad man, the one hero who had mental illness before it was cool (jk, however It was the first I got to know), for him I downloaded the anime OVA in a process that took 3 days and 5 hrs per day on my local internet shop and i bought the original Advent Children movie and the extended. He defined my taste in fictional men.
Uriko/ Bloody Roar 2
My first crush, she made me a furry before I even knew what a furry was, she awoke in me my taste for fighting women and catgirls. Silly little weapon of mass destruction, best girl, best playable character in Bloody Roar (yes, Im biased, no I don't look to be corrected)
Raine Sage/Tales of Symphonia
I wanted to be her when i grew up, now older I come to undestand that maybe I wanted to fu--*gets kicked*
Best archealogist, best sister, takes no ones bullshit. What the world of research needs.
Roxas/ Kingdom Hearts
Righ in my teenager era, thought it was Cloud so I looked, stayed because of the tragic existencialism, best angry boy, he has never done anything wrong on his life, kicked Riku's ass like a pro, fave resident in Sora's Heart hotel. A little gremling out for blood.
Maka Albarn/ Soul Eater
My irrevocable call that I was, in fact, not straight. The most cool female character I had ever seen, fuck the perfect stereotype (even thou she was the academic sterotype of perfect student) she was a messy bitch with angry issues and it was so fucking healing to see her being that way. Made me realice you can have a boyfriend and a nonbinary partner at the same time.
Aqua/ Kingdom Hearts
My wife, she carries the whole BBS game on her back, not because something arbitrary like most powerful keyblade wilder (which she is) nor because she is the only one who becomes master of her group (wich she does) but because she, literally, pass the whole game,pulling together the shit her idiotic himbo crush and her best friend do during all the game. Her movements while fighting are top 1000 of sexy things
Riku/ Kingdom Hearts
He is the representation of the queer journey made game character, the ironic fact that he is the closest to the mascot of all that represents capitalism is incredible good for social study. Seeing him growing on the story resonated with my growing into a lgbta+ person and now we are both happy with who we are.
Dante/ Devil May Cry
I literally buyed the whole tri-pack of the DMC saga back in 2013 when I didn't even had a PS2, just to play it in a console a friend let me borrow. All the bro dudes buying his bad boy persona when he is a fucking depressed man that only knows happiness when he has his brother back, looked for the sexyness and irreverent style, stayed for the tragic sibling drama.
Dream/ The Sandman
The blorbo that pretty much brough me back to Tumblr. Goth, sad, twink, depressed, divorced dad of one poor soul with the most toxic family ever. Neil Gaiman saw that one comic about giving robot feelings and decided to do the same with concepts. No Neil, you didn’t give it feelings, you fucked up a concept.
Loki/ Marvel MCU
Sad wet snake, with queer tendencys ignored by most of marvel who is made justice on fanart/fanfic. My favourite "redemption" trope. Mama's boy. HE USES MAGIC, CAN SHAPESHIFT AND FIGHTS WITH KNIVES. May hate the world but loves his brother, that gets me every time. I just want them to be happy
