Day 2- Who is your favorite male character and why?

Boy howdy, if there was ever a character tailor-made to fit my interests, it’s Thomas MacLaine. A nervous, shy guy who doesn’t fit his job at all and loves baking? And squirrels? Within five minutes of meeting him in-game, I shouted “I LOVE HIM!” because... what a cutie. And just when I thought I had buried my feelings for crossdressing after my love of visual kei had waned... here comes Thomas MacLaine, looking beautiful in a dress, and I am weak. Beyond saying “He’s adorable and I love him!!!”, I find him a character who just makes sense. I grew up in a small town, and that’s not a good setting when you’re under the LGBT umbrella. I really see his relationship with George starting out of desperation to find anyone else who isn’t straight, and unfortunately getting dragged down by someone who’s controlling because he doesn’t have anyone else to turn to. It doesn’t help that Thomas is so shy, either, and has ~responsibilities~ keeping him in Greenvale. I’m always glad that his crossdressing is never portrayed in a comedic or negative light, with George’s mean comments about it cementing that Thomas was still his victim. Even with his breakdown at the end, I still find it so easy to sympathize with him. He just wants to be loved and wanted, is that so much to ask for? That said, I hope Emily is always making jokes about hooks around him in the afterlife. She deserves it.

Deadly Premonition 30 Day Meme Challenge - DAY 23

23. As you all know about the disagreement regard to the review score of this game, what would you give to Deadly Premonition out of ten? Would you recommend it to someone else? 

I’m sure this comes as no surprise but like Jim Sterling I would give the game a 10/10. No joke. Even with all it’s faults Deadly Premonition is one of my top games of all time. I didn’t even think it was possible that another game would come close to my regard for the Silent Hill series. 

I think the main reason I like the game so much despite it’s flaws is because it excels so much in what matters most for me in a game. The story, the world SWERY created, and the characters are just that good. This game really would make an excellent, novel, television series, or even a movie in my opinion. I got this game back in February 2010 yet I’m still raving and talking about over seven years later. I’ve put hundreds of hours playing the game trying to unlock all it’s secrets and gather content for my website and my current LP. I DEFINITELY got my money’s worth like hundred times over which is why I always highly recommend it to my friends.

After some thought I decided not to bother people with my shitty AUs, so here’s another terrific fanart. Needless to say I would pay any money to play such a version if it were real!

Deadly Premonition 30 Day Meme Challenge - DAY 29

29.  If you get to write an AU plot of Deadly Premonition, post the synopsis here. Alternatively treat this one as a freebie to post whatever you want regard to Deadly Premonition.

I highly recommend michaeltillotson’s Scenario B if you are looking for a really good Deadly Premonition AU!​

Summary: Scenario B is an alternate universe novelisation of the entire game. It begins with York heading to Greenvale to solve a murder, but the killer and the victims are different. That means someone else from Greenvale is wearing the raincoat, and everyone in town is a potential new victim for a killer with different motivations to the game itself. The relationship between Emily and York remains at the fore, and the comic elements are still in place, but there are other subtle changes to be unearthed along the way. And, it goes without saying, a completely different ending for many members of the original cast. Who lives and who dies is up in the air. Enjoy the mystery afresh, where everyone is a suspect!

And since this post is a free space I thought I would advertise my ongoing Deadly Premonition Director’s Cut Let’s Play as well!

Full Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqUK1Sr5OXSZ_MBh49KlnvWECQnnhnV0Z

Anyone who knows me probably already knows how much I <3 Deadly Premonition! I’ve played it countless times, sing its praises every chance I get, and I even run a fan site dedicated to it.

So years ago I recorded a 100% completion LP of the original game but the recording quality was terrible and in the end my LP ended up not being as comprehensive as I hoped it was going to be at the time. Sure, I completed all the game Side Missions and found all the secret collectibles and weapons but in the years since the completion of the LP I’ve come to realize that I barely scratched the surface of what Deadly Premonition truly had to offer.

SWERY and Access Games put a lot of work into making Greenvale a living breathing town. Each resident has their own schedules and character interactions independent of the main story and these moments are easily missed if a player does not go out of their way to find them. I’ve been wanting to try my hand at making a more in-depth run showing more of these optional interactions and the easily missed details for a quite while now and I figured since the Director’s Cut has some graphical improvements and extra content, it would be the perfect version to record and discuss.

So far I only have eight videos covering CH00 - CH06 done at the moment but to give you an idea of the depth I’m going… it is already clocking in at about 14.5 hours and I’m only like a quarter of the way into the game...

I still have a long way to go but I would love to know what you guys think :)

Day 4-Which character is your least favorite and why?

I don’t like Kaysen or Harry, but there’s a certain character I have a reserved hatred for.

Lilly Fricking Ingram. A loving mother and normal wife, not deserving of any ire, right? A woman who constantly insists she’s normal wife, works in an all-American grocery store, infantilizes her husband and trusts the police whole-heartedly. I can’t not see her as a rural, conservative-Christian woman who protests against Planned Parenthood and only married her husband because she got knocked up with nightmare twins after a night of ~premarital sex~. Lilly Ingram is the type of person who thinks that her twins are indigo children and would comment on any post about Black Lives Matter with “I think all lives matter”. Lilly Ingram probably thinks depression isn’t a real problem and that going on a jog can fix your mood for you. Lilly Ingram doesn’t put spice on chicken, but she does bake it in Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom soup.

And all of her quests with her scolding Keith for “making messes in the storage room” and then giving you an item that he loves without his permission is really gross to me, especially since she doesn’t even feel the least bit bad about it. She may act polite and friendly, but she’s just the ‘nagging wife who won’t let her husband have fun’ trope under a sugar coating.
