hiya!!! this is a rant, trigger warning for topics such as grooming in later sections. basically this drama is related to the Rox thing. But for the most part I yap about plot and design issues. The *very* end of my post is kinda important though, please don’t hate me for it.
Here’s something I wanted to say before drama related things though. I quit playing dandy’s world. DONT FREAK OUT! I just quit the game, I did so a while ago, not quitting my hyperfixation on fan projects and stuff. And Astro is still very much my comfort character, but now it’s just exclusive to my headcanon version. All I’m gonna say about quitting the game is that it got boring as hell, sorry to say it. It felt repetitive to me and I stopped feeling that same hype I did for grinding for stuff.
My bigger problem though? The game is literally just fanservice and skinslop now. I almost had hope for toon of the week (though they HAD to start with sprout, in canon he’s such an asshole), and the lore tape that comes out of it??? HE TALKS ABOUT MISSING COSMO. BRO HE’S SUCH A PLOT DEVICE, MAKE FRUITCAKE CANON ATP/hj. Was also kind of upset because Astro just sat there and kind of…sympathized with him I guess. That was sad. Astro BARELY gets lore other than being DaNdYs BeSt FrIeNd and everyone turning away from him. That’s it? Bro all I’ve done with canon Astro is rely on his personality traits but even that doesn’t do enough and I still headcanon the shit out of my version.
Not to mention I’ve started to hate the design choices. Do they have to be THAT simplistic? Astro is literally just a bald blue moon with a tiny blanket and chicken feet.
(I start discussing the possibly triggering stuff here)
Anyways, that’s all I had about explaining my problems with canon Dandys World. I’ll keep this short because I don’t know much about it but it’s not looking good.
No, Qwelver. I don’t forgive you. Even after I quit it always seemed to amaze me that you erm…cared about your fans. That doesn’t mean you get to put all the stuff they want in game, but, i really did appreciate what you did following chat restrictions. Those feelings all just went away as soon as i hear something about you (allegedly) letting rox continue being on your team is just…bro you’re a grown woman. please.
now that I’ve said all this, how come I still want to continue having the hyperfixation? All I have really done the whole time after quitting is supporting fan projects and other universes, especially when it comes to seeing headcanons (I was literally customizing my Astro plushie as my hc ver when I heard this), but however I might not approach anything in the first few days of this. If anything is not cleared up afterwards, then know supporting FANS is absolutely not supportive of Qwel. I’d love to continue seeing your views on the characters, helps me with realizing how bad the storytelling of canon Dandy’s world is. Might even start thinking of everyone’s view of the characters as unrelated to qwelver, just goes to show how pissed of this made me. Please don’t take this as me continuing tho bring attention to supporting blushcrunch, if we bring up the idea of separating art from artist as much as we can I think it MIGHT work, but my hopes aren’t high.
