I hate that I can only store the prawn suit or sea moth in my moon pool so I think I’m building another moon pool right next to it today

This is my twitch channel.

I have been dying to get some art to use as my PFP, and maybe someone to redesign my logos and things better but I honestly can't afford it.

I get a dozen massages a day from artists wanting me to give them like $100+ for packs that have the pfp, banners, dividers, layout goodies for stream and emojis and I feel terrible every time I have to tell them no because I sold my own digital art for years and I know that hustle is a bitch sometimes.

But anyways.... If you want to come give me a follow, maybe one day I can get some cooler art. ☠️😂

I think game studios should just release their character creators online. For the times when I don’t wanna play the whole game, just the lil dress up part

ive just been born into the world what are some good games for beginners

Just finished an almost all missions playthrough of FFVII Remake.

Thoughts on it under the cut. I’m not kind about this game. Clearly going to spoil the game.

1. Barret and Tifa coparenting Marlene made my heart leap with joy. I think they could make a good couple.

2. I didn’t like Aerith at all. Her personality didn’t vibe with me. I don’t like bubbly + cagey characters so not a surprise,.

3. I loved Barret, I loved his visual design and showing how he moves without the use of one hand was amazing. There were definitely points at the game I stared dead at my screen wondering why the character who resorted to violence the most happens to be the only black protag. I get this is his personality in the first game, but I am nervous.

4. I didn’t like Cloud. Which… made the start of the game rough as hell.

5. I was, and still am, torn on the whole eco terrorism plot point, Barret’s motivations being laid out is genuine, and Shinra is just an evil corporation that doesn’t care what they’re doing to the planet, but I do think there’s a validity in no one there thinking what happens after you turn the power off everywhere, including the slums. I feel like this was just a shallow follow the motions plot narrative. Especially when Barret is confronted with his worldview and then boom death.

6. I can’t complain about the normal FF story and puzzles pacing being to par for the series. But my hands hurt from playing mouse and keyboard. I am so glad I never have to do a motorcycle scene again.

7. I feel like this game is definitely made to pair with, not played aside from the original. Maybe I’d like it more if I actually could get through the original game.

8. I feel like Sephiroth’s buildup was bad, and while I’m interested in his character bc I’m easy like that, I just don’t feel like a lot was established in game to support the narrative they went for.

9. There was enough Cloud and Sephiroth scenes I can safely say I felt like they had a more natural relationship progression than Aerith and Cloud.

10. I loved the trio of bosses at the end being Barret, Tifa and Cloud, but ow they kicked my ass though. Cool bosses, cool concept, ran longer than I’d like.

11. Aside from the motorcycle portion, that was the most back to back to back bosses I’ve had in a while.

12. I was not satisfied with the ending. I was not satisfied with Sephiroth’s boss fight. I came out of the game dissatisfied by everything.

13. I think Shinra’s involvement being so high, made the resolution with it so bad.

14. I kind of wish I could have had all the characters for combat. Maybe it’s a nod to FFVII but like, I think if I’m running around with all four maybe I have all four in my active party. Perhaps.

15. Items kind of sucked ngl. Materia also kind of sucked. I ended up swapping to easy because I legitimately didn’t think the weapons, bangles and additional items would have assisted anything.

16. My hands legitimately hurt from needing to hold run everywhere.

17. The controls for the dance section is fucking weird why did they do that. There ended up being so much to try and part attention to it fucked me up. I play rhythm games this shouldn’t have been so difficult to sight read and understand.

18. I loved seeing Cloud in a dress.

19. I cane out of that understanding very little about the plot, and it felt like there’s so many holes in it, that I genuinely don’t know if I want to play the sequel.

Overall, I still stand by not liking FFVII really, and hold a far bigger interest in almost any other game. I wouldn’t say the game has shit design inherently, but I think not having played/liked the first definitely made me more critical of the remake.

I’m going to play the side story and prequel soon, and maybe playing the sequel will help.

Maybe. But I have to wait to play the sequel because I neither have a PS5 nor the funds to buy the game atm.

tonight is just one of those nights where i yearn. i wanna be going home to somebody. i want there to be a reason for me to come back after work. for it not to be my whole life. but the only personal connections i have are digital or through my job. so why bother. why not work late. why not spend my whole life my whole time being at work and doing nothing. it's the only place i get any sort of feedback, positive, negative. it's where im a person and not a hermit.

haven't seen this on here yet so:

in case you don't want to slog through the shitscape that is the bird/letter website, take a peek beneath the cut (shamelessly copied from the something awful forums dungeon meshi thread)

- Her first memory of video games was watching her father playing Wizardry on Famicom, also Dragon Quest, Ultima, and Fire Emblem among others.

- She was a difficult child so her parents didn't let her play. Wizardry is a boring game to watch, but the monster illustrations on the walkthrough evoked her imagination and made her keep watching.

- She only started becoming a serious gamer after the serialization of Dungeon Meshi was locked, for research purposes. Before that, she read fantasy novels such as The Neverending Story (Michael Ende) and The Lord of the Rings (JRR Tolkien).

- The international title for Dungeon Meshi: Delicious in Dungeons was decided by her editor.

- D&D popped up a lot when she researched the history of video games, so she read the rule books, replay novels, and games inspired by D&D.

- One of the first games she studied was the Legend of Grimrock (game's 80% off on Steam atm). Originally, she wanted Dungeon Master (FTL Games) which was famous for "RPG with meals" but hunting down the game and machine was too much.

- She didn't like games other than turn-based RPGs at first, but she decided to stop being picky and play anything that piqued her interest.

- She played Zelda: BotW and TotK on a borrowed Switch from her editor due to the console's scarcity at the time.

- She enjoyed Red Dead Redemption 2 and God of War for their stories. RDR2's incredible attention to detail had Kui engrossed so much that she asked her editor and other mangaka to play it so she could discuss it with them.

- Kui praised The Witcher 3 localization as something only possible with full support from the developer. Cyberpunk 2077 is one of her all-time favorites.

- Papers, Please was her first taste of indie games.

- Disco Elysium is the perfect game for her due to the lack of fighting, intriguing story, charming character interaction, and top-down perspective. She tried playing it in English at first due to an unlikely chance for JP loc, but it was out of her ability. Thus she is forever grateful to Spike Chunsoft for localizing it.

- Kui played Baldur's Gate 3 from the time it was in Early Access. Again, she's grateful for Spike Chunsoft's JP loc. She hoped BG3's success would bring the possibility of JP loc for other titles too, such as Pathfinder: wotr

- She likes games with top-down perspective because they have narration text for monologues and scenery description. Even if the graphic is lacking, the texts show the atmosphere and each character's behavior and psyche. Also, characters that react to your choices.

- She praised Unpacking and House Flipper for being able to tell what kind of person lives there only through their belongings, and that there's no right or wrong for the placements; she would make the best arrangement and then enjoy her hard work while sipping tea.

- The biggest inspiration for Dungeon Meshi was the Cosmic Forge pen from Wizardry VI. With improved graphics from its predecessor, now it could show broken farming tools in the background and many more details that made exploration so much fun.

- At the time of the interview (Dec '23) she still hadn't watched DunMeshi anime, but she attended the recording sessions. She's embarrassed that the dialog she wrote now acted passionately by professionals. Marcille's screaming was wonderful but also made her want to flee.

- Kui was anxious about the CP2077 anime adaptation, but she was relieved it was the Night City she knows and loves.

- Other than minor adjustments, she left it to TRIGGER as to how to adapt

- She's happy that Mitsuda Yasunori was chosen as the anime composer, as she used to play Chrono Cross and rewatched the opening many times.

- Her anticipated games in 2024 are Cloudpunk, Nivalis, and Avowed.

- DunMeshi would be hard to adapt into a game because in the first place, what Kui depicted in the manga are parts that are omitted in games for the sake of brevity.

- If DunMeshi game was Wizardry-like, it'd be told through Laios' perspective and eating was essential not to die
