It feels really hard to explain my feelings without spoiling stuff, but to put it simply it feels like what people who've never played Final Fantasy think what old Final Fantasy stories are like

Bowser Jr. TAKES CONTROL OF THE MAGIC BRUSH, AND BEGINS POLLUTING THE ISLAND, LEADING THE JUDGE TO GIVE MARIO COMMUNITY SERVICE FOR THE DAMAGE HE CAUSED, EVEN THOUGH BOWSER JR. WAS IN THE STREETS, THE WHOLE *FUCKING* TIME AND WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR *EVERYTHING*! YAH! FUCK THIS GAME!

We will not stand to see companies clearly picking favorites to remaster and skipping over earlier entries, which are essential in order to fully enjoy their sequels. #RemakeShrek1

Ok so actuall thoughts on Belmont's Curse an hour in. So far it's a fun, well put together game. But also it does sadly kinda feel like a somewhat generic indie metroidvania with a Castlevania skin. The amount of stuff it blatantly borrows from Hollow Knight specifically is very eye roll inducing

I am going back in time to before Hollow Knight came out to beat Team Cherry with hammers

I really don't wanna come off like an entitled fanboy saying this is "not a REAL Castlevania game!!!!", it's just a tad disappointing seeing it veer so much in that direction, considering how few Igavania-likes there are

On the positive side though, I think the new Bloodstained that's coming next year is looking SUPER good from what we've seen, and I'm very looking forwards to it feeling that void. Just a tad sad how much it's been overshadowed by Belmont's Curse since that got reveled

Now that YouTube allows you to comment on videos with gifs it is only a matter of time until the grand return of video responses

I think it's so fascinating looking at the evolution of JRPS between the NES, SNES, and PS1. With NES JRPGs for the most part being focused on gameplay, with dialogue short there to guide you along, PS1 JRPGs focusing on stories with long dialogue scenes. and SNES being somewhere down the middle

It's insane how much discussion regarding characters being "written out of character" at certain scenes can be so easily written off as folks not understanding that people inherently behave differently depending on circumstance and who they're talking with

The SBR anime has been insanely great so far, tho part of me does sorta worry they might skimp out with a low episode count and rush some stuff later on. At the very least I hope it's close to 50 episodes or so

A lot of people like to play old JRPGs while drawing their own maps and leaving notes for things to come back to. I do it while keeping a list of important character and location names so my dumb ADHD brain can always come back to cross check it. We are not the same.

Been replaying Chrono Trigger latley, just made it to Zeal. ...Ok Imma be completely honest, this game has been like, WAY better than I remembered it being. I still do prefer FFVI personally, but like yeah I 100% see why so many like this more. Absolutely magical game

I feel like the theme of Zeal being as good as it is often kinda overshadows discussion about what a terrible tyrannical society of supremacists it was who were literally enslaving people who weren't born with magic. It really does it's job too well seeming so majestic at first

Ishgard is an incredible achievement in terms of reflecting the places it's based on, beautiful landscapes and architectures that mask the insane poverty ratio, the deeply rooted racism, the overly-religious groups that have just a bit too much power, it really makes it feel like you're in europe

I'm kinda weird with Chrono Trigger because like; I do love it a lot and think it's an insanely great video game, but at the same time its always kinda bothered me how a lot of people talk about it like this perfect masterpiece you're not allowed to levy have ANY criticism against

It's kinda funny whenever Chrono Trigger fans talk up that game having 13 different endings as this insane selling point because it's acting as if most of those aren't literally just shitposts
