"theyre giving he man pronouns" is one of the funniest things ive heard recently. i cant stop thinking about it. he man. the man with a pronoun in his name. he. theyre giving he man pronouns. incredible
I really enjoyed dispatch I'm probs gonna play it through repeatedly until I find something else to take over my life but I have some things to say!!!!!
spoilers kinda!!!
- Robert is literally bi and no one can take that away from me
BEFORE YOU READ THIS: this is not an invisigal hate post it is an invisigal disappointment post. I really mourn the cool character Visi could've been if they didn't edgelord/hazbin hotel/12 year old-ify her character. her character being flawed and sometimes good sometimes bad is not my beef w her at all.
- I really....... really..... do not fw invisigal idk if it's because I worked at Hot Topic for too long but I've interacted with people that act like her and it's not cute when they're like 19, it really isn't cute when they are 27. immediately got the ick from her. also I am not saying bc she is 27 she shouldn't be immature I'm literally 2 weeks away from being the same age and here I am on tumblr writing an essay whining that my video game isn't gay enough for me. but I am saying where in the fuck is HR I would like to file a report!!!
- speaking of invisigal I wish the storyline didn't push her on me so much like I get that the story is lowkey about her but like just let the "flirting" (ahem harrassment tbh) be optional I actually like her as a sort of underdog mentee type of character but I have to ignore soooo much of her dialogue to stomach her character!!! I really want to like her but I just cannot the lines they gave her are so cringe. justice for Invisigal honestly she could've been such a dope character.
- this may be the hottest take in this post but it's my post: as an ADHD haver I don't like Invisigal being the token ADHD character. we get it she's like random and quirky but can we please get a different representation of ADHD in media even just once!!! that being said I know that ppl may relate to her and feel seen and that's sick I am speaking purely selfishly
- now I do see the double standard in not liking Visi but loving Flambae BUT while he is crass, which I don't mind in any character including miss girl, he does not try to make every situation weirdly sexual.
- also the romance aspect doesn't bother me I knew what the game was about but I just personally would rather have it be more subtle and then as the player I can choose how to interpret it
- luckily for ME I live in my own world in my head and just choose to ignore parts I dont like and pretend what I want to happen is secretly happening. some may call this delusional.
-also why is romancing blonde blazer even a thing it feels like suuuuch an afterthought which has been talked about a ton so im not gonna get into it
-im saying no romance in this game, Robert as a jaded mentor and Visi as his difficult angry mentee would be how I would like to see that relationship play out personally
if I had any say in anything I think a Dispatch dating sim would be cool bc then people who love to goon over Invisigal can and people like ME who want the option to romance everyone (Malevola, I am looking at you babes) in the game can do that. also a version where you can just do the dispatching gameplay cause it's actually so fun?
anyway all my whining aside I lurve dispatch
grown ass woman writing all of this btw yes I feel shame
online communities are so strange because people slip away so easily. you can be on here for years, folding people you've never met into the fabric of your daily life, and then they disappear, leaving only ghost posts scattered across tumblr behind. or their blog stays dormant, for weeks, months, years, until you're only still following them because you remember that they love sunflowers or they were kind to you when they didn't have to be or the last thing they posted was sad and raw and you still worry about them sometimes.
and sometimes they come back when you least expect it, years later, even, and there's this sudden rush of relief like there you are, there you are, even though you barely knew each other.
there's a strange kind of love to it. i don't know you and i want to hold your hand across miles and time zones and oceans. i can still see the imprint of you in this community you left. you don't think anyone will notice or care when you're gone, but we notice and we care and we wish you well.
i hope you're all okay out there. i hope the sun is shining on your face and you are breathing deeply. i miss you.
