losing my mind over this

being immediately followed up with this

#dimension 20 #d20 #city council of darkness #ccod #ccod spoilers #finale was very very funny but also wtf just happened #i didnt know what was going on the entire time and i think thats a bad thing? but also it was really funny #great experience but also not a good or satisfying ending ykwim #but also so funny that in the sandbox sorta campaign there was an entire ghost-clown war that they didn't explore like #that seems like something brennan did actually plan and not something he just pulled out of his ass as another haha funny bit in the finale #i think there was just too much going on and the campaign wasn't long enough for them to explore everything in a satisfying way

i'm never forgiving horikoshi for building a 10+-year intricate universe meant to subvert the superhero trope around a theme of 'heroes and villains aren't so different after all - the society that separates us is the true problem' and creating a team of sympathetic and interesting 'villains' with deep narrative connections to our protagonists

and in the end STILL choosing to follow the 'only redemption for a villain is in death' overused cliche

too much of a coward to save the villains too much of a coward to kill the heroes too much of a coward to COMMIT to making a firm statement instead falling back into the very tropes he set out to subvert

#somewhere along the way we lost the plot #we were so close. vigilante deku acting more like a villain. lady nagant showing that even someone with heroic dreams can be pushed too far #WHAT WAS THE POINT. IF WE WERE GONNA KEEP THE SAME HERO WORSHIP SAME GOVERNING BODIES SAME SCHOOLS #the nation was destroyed. the children fought a WAR. EVERYTHING should have changed #and sure there's 'less' hero worship and now people aren't judged 'immediately' for having scary quirks #but these are half-hearted demonstrations for what was supposed to be something much grander #and dont get me started on the villain trio #tomura shigaraki. the chosen one. having his OWN QUIRK stolen for him because of his birthright #made to kill his own family groomed and manipulated and turned into the very villain he wished to fight #what do you MEAN there's no saving him. what do you MEAN there's only death #and listen. listen. him and dabi i. sort of understand. narratively.#but not toga. never her. and it wasn't even supposed to end like this?! he's just like 'well then theres no consequences?'#HELLO!?!?!??!?!??!?!??!?!#also how are you going to create a war like this and not kill any actual big heroes #endeavor's death would have been the most narratively satisfying i think #dying to save his son that he turned into a monster. subverting the 'dying for the sins of our fathers' into something actually powerful #THAT redemption in death would have been beautiful #AND leaving the todoroki family with the complex feelings of despising him and also being grateful to him #honestly all might. could have and maybe should have died.#i love the idea of the mentor NOT dying and choosing to live. its beautiful. toshinori deserved that. and deku + kacchan deserved to save h #but. again.#what kind of story is it when the only ones who actually suffer consequences are the villains? we're just right back to cliches there #anyway. the preview for next season has me feeling all types of ways

What do you think happens to Ramb post sword route? My theory is he's killed by sword kris/"used up", based on how terrified that bunny was

That's a toughie!

I've always been under the impression that he gets kidnapped by the entity controlling Eram, because at first I only left the console room after I beat them and they fled.

But I soon realized that Ramb disappears way before Eram is defeated! One time I died to Eram and decided to leave the room before I finished the fight, and saw that Ramb was already gone. Since then I had no idea what to make of his disappearance...

This post and reblog explain it best, but essentially; Ramb disappears right as you enter the final dungeon. But everything in the S-rank room (dust bunny dialogue about ramb ect) only changes once Eram is defeated.

I wanna believe it's just coding stuff, I've had my hand at it and it gets messy fast, so I personally, generally, don't view it as something to analyze- but if it is intentional, it's INCREDIBLY interesting how the dust bunny comments on something happening to Ramb only way after he disappears-

And I've never thought about 8bit Kris being the one to cause rambs disappearance! It feels simultaneously anticlimactic and super fitting to me- like it's fitting BECAUSE it's so unceremonious. he really was used up. After everything he did, he ended up being nothing. And his fate isn't even shown to us, because why should we care?

As for what i think happened... Like I said in other posts I wrote about him, I'm not trying to answer the questions that ramb's story brings up- I can never come up with anything about what's going on with him that makes enough sense to me!

I like the thought that 8bit Kris was the one to kill him and "use him up", and I like the thought that whoever is behind Eram was the one who took him, but since he disappears way before 8bit Kris leaves and eram flees, idk what to think anymore!! Is that even something we should analyze??

Coding is very complicated and the loopholes it creates in stories are rarely intentional- but at the same time, the differences in when ramb disappears and when the dust bunny comments on something happening to him is viewable in game! You can leave and see ramb gone and the dust bunny doesn't say anything UNTIL Eram is defeated!! IDK CONFUSED MONKEY STARING AT COMPUTER.JPG!!!!!!

If you ask me, with this guy, It's everybody's guess- hsjdkf.

#awesome people being nice #deltarune #ramb #talking-about-ramb-at-length-tag #I'm sorry if this wasn't a very satisfying answer dhjdfk. I'm not good with theories I'm good at analyzing #at least I hope I am?????????????#at the end of the day you can always say gaster deleted him for being cringe or something #lol #also sorry it took me so long to get to this ask gsjdjfk.... today was hectic #also I wanna say to anyone reading this who's even the slightest bit interested in what I write.#PLEASE send me asks about ramb I love answering asks so much gsjdjfkf...#and analyzing him is so fun I can't get enough of it lol. (intentionally ignores 16k words essay looming over me)#ps. if the dust bunny thought that 8bit Kris and the real Kris were the same and it saw something scary happen to ramb...#why would it tell Kris that something happened to him as if they weren't the one that did it.........#... please ignore me please keep believing your theories. honestly anything could happen in this game.

Iron Lung was preddy good [pretend there is a thumbs up emoji here I do not have one]

#not art #txt #good pacing and tension build-up. good self-contained storytelling.#before it started i was like 'i wonder how they're gonna stretch iron lung out to over an hour it's a pretty simple game'#and they pulled it off. props to markiplier and the team.#no loose ends it all just made sense.#nothing felt unnecessary or out of place. everything they did to movie-ify it felt like a good use of time #movie adaptations of video games are usually pretty bad but everything the team did here felt like it worked.#a lot of the times i think directors look down on video games as an art medium. like a movie version of uhhh fuckin skyrim or whatever #would be the superior way to experience the story. when that is not the case.#but i think markiplier and co have a lot of respect for the original medium and translated the atmosphere #and tension from the original to another medium with a great deal of care.#i didn't think it was possible to relive the feelings that occurred while playing iron lung.#like TRULY relive it like the first time playing the game. even in another medium.#but they made full use of the whole ramshackle submarine concept and it did more than make me just as tense as the original game #there was dread and terror and other feelings. it evoked more complex emotions than the source material.#does that make sense. i'm not saying one is better than the other for the record.#i think the film accomplished everything it set out to do. it wasn't too short and it didn't overstay its welcome.#a very satisfying experience. and i am still mulling over its Themes.#sorry for being so vague i didn't want to spoil anything in talking about what worked for this film.

things I wish I could relive for the first time again:

that magical window where you finish a new piece of media, having watched/read it all by yourself with no fandom contact whatsoever, and you are just so happy about it, and full of interesting theories and takeaways, and just in love with it as a gorgeous piece of art.

because I swear to god as soon as you join the fandom for anything, you're bombarded with how you're supposed to view characters and their arcs, how you're supposed to morally and ethically judge the plot and the ways it apparently failed to present the right message, and if you don't you'll either be shunned for not sharing the popular headcanons or you'll be harassed for not criticizing the source material enough.

like how is it that the fans of a piece of media are also the ones being the most negative about it? If I like a show or a movie or a book, well, I liked it. That's kind of the point. I'm actually not here to tear it apart and talk about how it didn't live up to standards other people had! I enjoyed it for what it was, and forcing myself to find negative things to say about it doesn't actually bring me more enjoyment of it or reap any benefit to me. Fandom's a double-edged sword; you want to join a community to share your love for a piece of art, and the price you pay for a modicum of joy is a mountain of negativity. that's one main reason that I never engage with fandom until I'm completely done with a show, because if I was plugged into all of that commentary and discourse during the process, I'd be completely colored by how I'm expected to interpret everything this piece of art is presenting to me without being able to even form my own opinions.

#this is currently about arcane but it's also every fandom i've been in since the dawn of time #there is so much political discourse about how the show handled the piltover zaun conflict and class struggle and i just #like i don't even know what to say besides. art doesn't have to provide the correct answer you know #it's not asking you to accept their explanation as the right one. it's just presenting a story. a scenario. a nuanced one at that #which of course the internet is the enemy of nuance as we know #especially in arcane i thought it was fairly clear that the end wasn't the bright shining future anyone hoped it'd be.#was anyone right in their actions? did anything turn out the way they wanted? or was it just as messy and gray as real life #we're living in such a myopic time for art where it's believed every story must take the correct stance or be invalid or even harmful #instead of just offering a perspective. a lived experience. a hypothetical. a story.#and when it gets to be headache inducing all I can do is take myself back to how I felt when I watched the show for the first time #and I came away from the whole thing being incredibly moved and captivated by the entire story and its nuance.#i had no qualms and no criticisms and i was very impressed with the depth of storytelling surrounding the political parts of the plot #as well as the character arcs. i guess people like to dunk on viktor's s2 arc nowadays and i just. shrug. i was blown away by it #for me at least i have nothing but pure love and admiration for art after i've viewed it. it's only after interacting with fandom #that the criticisms seep in and now i can't unsee it and even if i don't agree with it it still muddies my ability to enjoy the art #fandom is a curse in that sense. like i seek out art that i enjoy. i have no desire to make myself dislike that art. whats the point #why are the biggest haters of a piece of media the 'fans' of it idk.#me finishing a show: wow i love all the characters and the plot and the cinematography! I want to talk to others about how cool it is!#meanwhile the fandom hating characters to the point of death threats to their creators #after 13 years in fandom i can say this - if you don't need to join the fandom for smth then don't lmao.#you'll be able to retain your genuine enjoyment of the thing.#that whole 'if you didnt like what i made then make your own' philosophy people use on fanfic/fanart should be applied more #to actual published art too. you should be able to meet art where it's at and if you don't like what it's saying or how it looks then #just move on and find something else. another branch of the 'the greatest enemy of the left is the left' tree imo #a show has a lot of queer rep? bash it to the point of making the creators go into hiding for not doing it how you think it should be #no artist will ever be able to satisfy everyone's demands. they just want to put their experiences and ideas into the world #creators that try to do good get more vitriol than those who never try. they're scrutinized harder and judged more harshly #it's just. one of those 'real fucking tired of fandom' nights. the best cure is just going back and rewatching the source material #all on your own and falling back in love with it. just you and your genuine connection with the art.#anyway what happened to steven universe was unforgiveable and it really ruined fandom for me. like. yall don't deserve nice things

*head in hands* v2 from ultrakill

#i miss my wife tails #actually i am so sad about her don't @ me #did its makers ever actually care.#was it ever able to feel fulfilled #there's no way it was at peace when it died #of course it didn't want to die any more than v1 but at least v1 gets to feel satisfied with itself and its purpose #v2 does nothing but compromise and i can't imagine it's content with that #even if humanity wasn't dead would it have ever been used?#there's only one like it in the world #made explicitly just to make money #did anyone care if it would actually be able to do anything meaningful or was it doomed from the start??#of course it's extremely competent #but extremely competent at.. what exactly?#killing things?#v1 is just better at that #surviving things?#v1 is also just better at that #i see why v2 was designed the way it is in theory #no need for vampire plating if it's not meant to be covered in soldier's blood all the time #maybe it was even intentionally made more personable #given values like honor and vengeance #and the ability to display human-like emotions like pride and anger #but just about everything that set it apart from v1 hindered it in the end #i suppose you could argue it has very unique ingenuity in creating a new arm(s) for itself?#but it almost discards that on its own and figures taking v1's strategies will serve it better #would it be too dramatic to say v2 thinks of itself as a cheap imitation of v1 #and that's why it assumes v1's approach is better even though it would probably make more sense to develop its own unique arsenal #maybe i am making it too human #it's just that copying v1's moves comes off as so insecure???#i am not sure how else to read that lol

finally finished evolution and yes it was great, love the youthful naturalist, def enjoy how it plays alongside HD ambition

and also, that little brat was so lucky i had outside motivation to finish the storyline bc when i saw that i was gonna have to go all around the entire unterzee AGAIN just to make the bell i was thiiiiiis close to ditching him for another year

#fallen london #fl evolution #the youthful naturalist #i spent so much of the fotr on the zee this year just running errands for this boy #very satisfied with the ending #(i did the malleable one aka wheel of fortune)#and it feels very very right to me #should be fun to get extremely confused in irem now!#figure out how the Fuck those destinies work #bc i do like my current destiny and it was a fate-locked one so i don't wanna lose it #but i also wanna Experience more things #but! that can all be for the future. now i'm gonna go back up to the ceiling in my ship.#farewell to u youthful naturalist ty for everything sorry i accidentally ditched you at port cecil for like a year #at least it was before he had the key in his spine so he wasn't in horrible agony the whole time

So I finished ME3 last night and respectfully.... what the fuck was that lmao

#i might just reload the last mission and choose a different ending lolol #i don't hate it! i was just... what #it did make me very emotional i'll give it that #but it just wasn't satisfying at all #mass effect #me3 #mass effect spoilers

What do you think happens to Ramb post sword route? My theory is he's killed by sword kris/"used up", based on how terrified that bunny was

That's a toughie!

I've always been under the impression that he gets kidnapped by the entity controlling Eram, because at first I only left the console room after I beat them and they fled.
