she/they. 25+ An autistic gremlin who enjoys analyzing media and collecting sad destructive fictional men like they were Pokemon. AA and doujin/indie JRPG liker. Creates stuff sometimes. Unashamed Yumejoshi.
A villainous knight with jet black armor introduced as an "impossible" boss you can win if you have strategized right + are good enough who may or may not be the sibling of the playable white mage. am I talking about the Roaring Knight or the Death Knight?
48. Deltarune chapter 5 Its more deltarune what do you expegt smdmdmdmdmf. Felt a bit mixed on it at first due to some parts feeling off but ended up liking it. I do need to ruminate it to figure out how I truly feel about it in comparasion to the other chapters.
Harvest Hollow Man the "subversssive farming sim" is a genre on itss own at this point. Like how this one i more humoristic/satirical than horror though. There were some good laugh and clever bits, tho the navigation was a bit too opague to my taste. Idk if I want to play this.
ORPHEUS: TO HELL AND BACK A really cool old school puzzle adventure game with some clever ideas, but the presenation just didn't click with me much. May buy it if its cheap, but I might passss.
Red Chat Ritual TSUMIMITIME Honestly don't know how I feel about this. It's an ADV with a solid premises that hass fun with its presentation, but the execution is a bit undercooked and it comes across as poor mans needy streamer overload. May play the full game, idk.
Penguin Colony Cool walking sim/exploration game that really shines in how you eexplore the world, but its a bit too obtuse for me to know if I'd enjoy the full thing. I really vibed with the general atmosphere and story presesnt though.
Soverign Tower Honestly this was really fun. A cool visual novel/managment sim hybrid that has some really fun strategizing and immersion. Love the freedom and challenge in it. Will definitely check the full version when its out
47. Napoleon Dynamite This was a fun and charming movie It has a pretty simple story, but the general vibes, likable characters and charming antics make the movie really enjoyable.
The world if fire emblem three houses discussion was this instead of arguing whether or not Edelgard is a war criminal
Soo made last minute FW prediction bingo-card. Lets see how many I get right.
46. The Amazing Digital Circus As for the show itself it was really good. Some growing pains in beginning but it kept constantly improving in spite of some structural issues. It did the characters and messages justice, which is what matters. It will stick, both for me and the rest of the world.
45. The Amazing Digital Circus The Last Act Really fun watching this in theatres with my Pomni plush and yeah this was good. I do think there are some structural isssues here and there, but as a conclusion to the story it wanted to tell it was probably best it could've been. Overall satisfied.
44. Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion Was pleasantly surprised with this. What I expected to be a filler game was a surprisingly fun short adventure game with simple but fun puzzles and chaotic humor. I was pleasantly surprised it had an actual story and lore, even if it was a bit undercoked.
43. Soft and Quiet Good movie. I don't think it will work for everyone due to its ...charged mesages and tone, but I do think I liked it for what it was. Clear mesages it explored in interesting ways through its content and structure. It made me uncomfortable, and that was a good thing
the TADC finale got me inspire to start working on a vid i have wanted to work for a while and presented witthout context
Making a ranking list of every JRPG I played on Backloggd and this is my top 20 (yes I count western jrpgs as jrpgs i am not having this discussion if it walks like a duck it is a duck)
12. Oban Star Racers, while fantastic, kinda peaks at episode 21 for me personally and then jus teeters from there. In particular I really didn't like the finale: Canaletto was rather weak final boss, I didn't like what they did with Jordan and Evas and Dons conclusion was a bit too clean.
11. (trying to be vague for spoiler reasons) Theres a way to avert a certain early game spoiler death in the first Banner Saga, but in either of my runs I wasnt able to do that. That does kinda tie to the "illusion of choice" the game haw and how I feel it should be just played once. To spare that.
