If you're into gaming like me, and if you're looking for retro assets for streaming, please consider shopping at my Etsy and Gumroad stores. Many of my creations are love letters to retro games and I made them with love and passion. I had fun streaming some Gameboy and NES games with these overlays, I hope you'll like them.
Best, -- T.

I want to talk about ff5 some more before we get too far into 6 & I become too full of Things To Say about it instead. spoilerz. I need to type sentences about narrative right NOW!!!
my wife mentioned 'less is more'-type writing in that post from the other day. you know what makes a really perfect awesome Genuinely Impressive example as to the way 5 does that? it's a perfect story, so the main villain would be a good place to look, I bet.
first: here is what I remember being told, textually, about exdeath, in the video game.
powerful evil warlock
exists because a tree had too many evil things sealed inside of it
can be put in a box on the high shelf temporarily, but he Will inevitably get out
wants the power of the void, to do various generalized things with
is overtaken by the void in the final battle
once overtaken by the void, the thing that he wants is to stop everything from existing, but mostly himself.
those are all of the items on the list. not a complicated guy. these 6 entire Things About Him, however, were selected by a genius, w/ a precision sniper rifle, very steady hands, & perfect technique. look:
the character I am about to reveal to you, represents Bad. and he has powers.
"where did he come from what's his problem" well, mankind did 'ritual of ignore my problems so I can pretend they went away' one too many times & entropy started taking it personally
(now that it has grown legs, btw, this walking problem has the means To Make Literal the idea that those types of things will come back to bite you in the end.)
having learned to demand that The Collective You contend with him, his goal is to Have More Power Over You. Being a nigh-unkillable Dark Warlock is NOT enough.
"so uh once he has that, what will he do next? like what does he want to use that power to actually do" ..............hey yeah that's a good qu
(at the end of the game, exdeath goes "haha I got the power!" & then, while the final boss fight is in the middle of happening, is like "oh actually the power got me! fuuuuck!" + the only context which follows this is a couple textboxes that say "hi I am The New Exdeath and I don't think any of this shit should exist actually." that is literally it.)
this is done sooooo elegantly. it makes so MANY other, similar stories look like Baby School by comparison. they don't glue human-readable motivations onto him. Furthermore I was not told that "see, dorgann knew that it was wrong to ignore such a big problem, but he was unwilling to face the many smaller problems that he would kick up on the path towards truly metabolizing and solving it, and now that he is dead the problem is back, as he surely knew deep in his heart that it would be, and so it is up to you to break that cycle." they do not. use. the word. "resentment."
game just. goes LOOK at our evil guy. here is what made him. here is what the previous generation did about him. here's that not working. ok? great. thank you. kill him now?
they let his motivations be total bobo nonsense.
BECAUSE!!!!!! THEY LITERALLY DO NOT MATTER. this ain't ABOUT him!! man!!! he's a metaphor that happens to know how to go "mwa-hahaha." the things that the story is saying are all routed through him, but the story is About everyone else. Exdeath is a decisively-designed embodiment of something the narrative proposes as a natural law: disengaging from difficult problems invites & perpetuates disengagement from the rest of life also. there is no separating these things—this is never once written out in a Text Box, but the game still states w/ a delightful definitiveness that doing The Work Of Maintenance on this world is perfectly equivalent to living in it.
#one of those things that maybe seems obvious? in the sense that it's like... kind of... classic?#but it's executed SO neatly in this game & I feel like jrpgs get a lot of shit for having villains that are vague or messy in some way#not so here. the intent is CRISPY-crystal-clear it's gorgeous. it's so good

i think judai deserves to have this when he is out in medieval realms.
#let him embrace his legacy as the dark savior#return his sword and summons#drop the duel disk and just go at it#classical jrpg lets go#fanon : he hates teh armor#my portrayal : it feels like home OuO

Update of my rpg amigurumi.
So yes, I realized I've posted his foot on Tumblr and decided to post the whole process. Vivi is my fav character and I don't even need to play all the FF games to affirm so.
He is such an innocent which my inner child hugely identify. I've never managed to finish the game when I was younger cause my ps1 was very old. Now, playing on my laptop, it has me crying my eyes out to know the sweetest creature of the world has such a sad story. Still, I think there might be an important message on Vivi's lore (about the ephemerality of things), strong enough to trigger me hard, yet it's power is very appreciable to me. I think there is some hurtful beauty in it...
