nothing you ever see about succession will prepare you for the way jeremy strong’s acting will gradually then irrevocably grab hold of your heart and soul and evoke emotions in you that you didn’t even know were there

my cancelled-able trait from the queer community would be that i really apparently love messy endings. i love u happy endings and i also love u such sad, messy, ambiguous endings . . . i love u endings where u have this weird pit in the bottom of your stomach because you know that there's love here but u have no idea what to do with it and u just have to deal with the fact that someone is profoundly affecting your life and you're not gonna get closure from it anytime soon . . . i love u queer love stories where it's really just "u don't always get to see the sunshine and rainbows at the end of it . . . sometimes all that's left is just one big question mark and the quiet hope that they get their shit together" . . .

now idk what the movie’s like or the tone of it. but idk how you could possibly read ‘you are not a beautiful or unique snowflake’ in the context of the rest of fight club and possibly come away with the conclusion that a ‘special snowflake’ is an embarrassing and pointless thing to be unless you’d actually bought into the narrator’s pov. which would be an absolutely insane thing to do & in fact the writing makes it very easy to go ‘i am trapped in this man’s head while he is actively losing it and maybe what he’s saying is a reflection of him actively losing it’

Now I don’t have like, a solid canon basis for this, it’s literally just my fun hc, but I like to think that on some level Atsushi is the book. Like, if you’ve ever watched Dr Who, in one of the specials there is a weapon that’s so powerful it develops its own consciousness, and I just think with the way Atsushi is the supposed wayfinder of the book, in DA shibusawa said he was the envy of all abilities/users, and he said his own regenerative ability doesn’t heal wounds but negate or rewrite them, I just like to think it would be kinda cool if he was a manifestation of the book itself

So Allegedly Infinite Wealth is 100 hours... not that you can't already spend that long on the games if you really want to, but I'd say it's the first time that could be said to be the base experience rather than a time only hardcore completionists are likely to get.
Yokoyama was talking at length about wanting to make the game worth the price tag since the team is incredibly conscious about the value of the players' time and money. They essentially feel they owe players ten times what they paid, so they're aiming for "an enjoyable 100 hours, but also an unforgettable 100 hours."
If they pull it off, I personally think it'd be 100% worth it and not just a "well other studios are doing it so we can get away with it too" price hike... I'm at least happy to know that's not the intent, and I'm intrigued to see how everything pans out and what the ratio is between story and side content
oh yayaya i saw that article this morning!!! 100 hours is actually so unfathomable to me in terms of an rgg game- i mean y7 was At Minimum around 45~50 hours but when i think of other RPGS that easily dip into 70's and 100's of hours, i'm not too surprised to see LAD start to climb towards those numbers now. it'd be such a jump in rgg's terms tho, so i'm TRULY curious to see where the nearly doubled gameplay hours comes from..
i really appreciate yoko's respect not just to RGGS but also to its customers: they want to make a great product, but they also don't want to sacrifice what they want to do to do that in the process

unfortunate news yall. for those of you waiting on a solar flares update, im sad to report that due to certain circumstances (nothing bad, rest assured) i will likely not be able to publish the final chapter before new years. that was the original plan, to publish it to finish out 2023 with a bang, but i am about to travel unexpectedly and this is going to halt my writing and editing schedule i had set up. however!! the final chapter will be published very soon. for sure it will be published before january 7th, as that is when my uni schedule picks up again
in case i dont make a post on new years, i hope everyone brings in 2024 with a hopeful heart! thank you guys for sticking around all these years, it's been so fun and such a positive space for me <3
