- I'm never going to be normal about how stylish the Inquisition tarot card aesthetic was, nor will I be normal about narrative foils or playing as a Dalish elf with your very own god of lies, treachery, and rebellion in your mind.

rip king, truly nobody was doing it for weird sci-fi and fantasy obsessed nerds like you 💔

[nongunktional]

i know they do the legwork every time (to varying degrees of efficacy) but it's really funny how every time ffxiv introduces another ascian they come prepackaged with an attempt to explain why they were completely uninvolved in everything up to this point. and so far it seems the usual answers are either "i hated my boss and hid in the bathroom" or "i was busy fucking around"

[were--ralph]

The porky pig bit has to be one of my favorite mbmbam moments. Griffin's reluctance at his own joke. The brother's silent horror. The animation captures this trainwreck/homerun of a joke so well

Revealing the ignorance of my youth here, but who is this and what is she known for?

[boybeetles]

Anita Sarkeesian, feminist who interpreted media under a feminist lens. She did a series about video games and she was the subject of targeted harassment. That was the start of gamergate

[flurrin]

Minor correction, the start of gamergate was based around a different reporter, Zoe Quinn, but they were both absolutely violently threatened over their involvement in video game criticism and development. A hate campaign was started by Quinn's ex-boyfriend when he wrote a post falsely accusing them of dating video game journalists in order to receive positive reviews on their own game, Depression Quest, which led other bad actors to accuse all women in the industry (Zoe identified as female at the time) of perceived sexual immorality. Anita Sarkeesian's brilliant Youtube series Tropes vs Women in Video Games (which everyone should watch, right now) sparked a particular nerve for criticizing popular games of killing and/or victimizing any important female character (there is a CHILLING bit that borders on ludicrous where she describes the plots of a seemingly endless parades of games as "In [title], [male player character's] wife dies, and you then have to rescue [his] daughter."). That series did actually make a huge change in the industry, especially when touted by progressive legacy developers like Tim Schafer (Monkey Island, Psychonauts), who went on to expand hiring in his company to front women and minority voices, but the shift didn't really show for a long time and echoes of the sexism that plagues the industry at its core are still rampant.

[boybeetles]

Thanks for the correction! I was like 8-10 years old when this all went down (2014-2016) so I only know vaguely about it. I’m still learning about this.

the important-est question: will halmarut be emet-selch for lesbians. it's a little embarrassing that the current holder of that title is a world of warcraft character

“i should take a walk for my mental health” boring, tired, i don’t even really wanna do it tbh
