Hello Skeletons And Wizards, I Have Traditionally Been Associated With Wizards And Magic By My Friends

Just found out it's International Asexuality day.

I raise a glass to all you people who are confident in the knowledge that you're just not into sex. You rock.

I'd tip my hat, but I'm indoors.

I dont post things about me much, but I’m a bit proud of this. I got really into Horizon: Zero Dawn by accident, and realized after playing it a bunch that I was super close to 100% achievements. So I pushed and got there.

So then along comes the sequel, Forbidden West. I delayed a couple years, but finished the story a while ago. I kept itching for more because I just love this world and story and characters.

Today I finished everything.

I’m just really pleased about this.

So now 100% on Horizon games is a thing for me. I don’t think I’m going to 100% the Lego one, but I’m so ready to invest in Horizon 3 whenever it happens.

Just like the Samwise quote, this is one of the stories that sticks with me because the heroes keep fighting no matter how dark it looks, because there’s good worth fighting for. It’s a reminder I’m holding close the way the world is right now. Those same feelings are built into the song too, so of course I’ve had that on loop as well:

I am raindrops in the flood

I am emptiness, I am hope

I am lonely in a crowd

But when you hear me, you'll be near me

Stay here with me

in the flood

Oh yeah, Crowley was very proud of this one. Probably would get him some commendation downstairs. 🎄🎉🎊🩷

I Want YOU For the Skeleton War! Cmon! Let us get hiring!

Ironically, the Sea of Thieves tall tale is the worst offender, though made by fans.

It's great as a way to lure SoT players into Monkey Island, but they botched it in a few ways; mischaracterisation of Cate Capsize, relying on one of the limited time Adventures for build-up, taking place immediately after Curse but not referencing Demon LeChuck in favour of the most toned down version of his zombie form yet, incredibly tedious movement and not playing around enough with the inherently weird in-universe explanation; it doesn't take place on the real Meleé or Monkey islands and instead in the delusional realm of Guybrush's memories, distorted by his nemesis.

Rare had the chance to give us a world of Guybrush's own desires turned against him by LeChuck and it's just Meleé island but he's a popular has-been, and not a hated has been? Maybe it's so lukewarm because of the demographic of SoT, but come on. We could have had the nightmare pirate LeChuck positioning Guybrush in a much wackier torment nexus.

Sorry for the rant, and don't get me started on the questionable ending of Guybrush apologising to the fake townsfolk.

It's really funny that MI2 predicted Guybrush as obnoxiously stuck in the past, clinging to iconic moments and places that made him famous until everyone got bored with him completely, only for the franchise to become exactly that after Tales. We got the beautifully and artfully made Sea of Thieves DLC, which really does capture the FEEL of the original SoMI but in 3D, but there's nothing original about it, it's literally made TO be a retread, even narratively. Then Return came, and while we have a lot more original content, characters, and places, the entire story still REVOLVES around LeChuck and the Secret. Playing it with my brother was frustrating because while we both grew up with MI3 and MI4 (and the first half of Tales), he only got to briefly play the other games Return puts a LOT of faith in the idea that you will recognize places and events that shouldn't necessarily define Guybrush as a character. This fandom has been full of mi1+mi2 elitists for forever but now it feels like they've snuck into the dev team, too.

“Everybody secretly hates me” factoid actually just statistical error. average person does not hate you. You yourself, who has a mean brain, is an outlier and should not have been counted

cybermiku update!

shes got all her limbs and wires on just some arm details and neck structure and she'll be fit for painting

gundam for scale i will get to the pigtails when i get there

I like to tell my brother what's going on in Aurora and after these last couple pages he said "when you have this much hubris and hate yourself this much I can only say not everything is about you"
