That was a very strong message back in 06 and it still resonates pretty well today. Hell, I think it's even stronger now. I think Fate in general is decently timeless in a lot of what it's trying to say and do in spite of how clumsy it can be a lot of the time.

About people, the relationships they have, the emptiness you can feel as a person, and how difficult that can be to look past and carry on. It takes having good times with good people to sometimes realize the humanity in others and the world around in spite of how awful a lot of it can be.

I still feel very passionate about this franchise to the point where I as a grown man in my last year of of my degree spent 3 whole days just playing through all of a decently lengthy visual novel and I really had such a great time. Even for as fluffy as it is the game says so much...

Played Fate/Hollow Ataraxia pretty recently and really loved it. I think my feelings on some of Fate's roster have moved a lot since I first played it back in 08 as I feel like almost everyone in S would've been in A and B tier and A tier would've been C. My opinions have shifted but my love hasn't.

Haven't done FJF in a while, was fun to do this even though I was super suboptimal. WM Lenna carried the absolute hell out of me for the final boss though, earned those shades. Will definitely try to pull this through at a better pace next year, long live FFV!

I'm going back on this. Tokon has awakened something within me I want to pursue and I refuse to give in on momentary frustration when something great lies within it.

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

It's not very often i feel like I'm making a decision to preserve my mental health when it comes to not buying something but I think I'm actually opting out of buying Tokon for the sake of my mental heath lmao

Tokon feels so much worse than I remembered lmao

Realizing now that the reason P3 had AI partners was as an attempt to innovate on the way you can program strategies for your attacks in the earlier Persona games and wow what a fuckin whiff of a change that was

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

Wokely hating the changes Yosuke will get to soften him because that motherfucker deserves the hate he gets in vanilla p4 and I think a new generation should be allowed to hate him as much as I do

I know my play has improved because I'm looking for different solutions to certain options now and playing with more consideration, but the beast within that wants to kill anyone who ever does wakeup throw on me takes over so much

The ne Deltarune chapter is so fucking peak bro and I can't talk about it at all lmao

New Blazblue stuff in 2026 is so unreal I genuinely can't believe this shit, I'm so happy. Even if it doesn't lead to a new game the fact anything is happening let alone a new character is so great and there are worse fates than playing CF until my dying days.

I have now spent enough time with my thoughts to say without shame that the fuckin song that plays during Renoir's boss fight is genuinely embarrassing and makes the fight an absolute farce especially once I looked into the lyrics. It is insane to me that song is treated with the reverence it is.

I am half joking, but good lord these games are bloated now.

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 13/04/2026

The modern fighting game is too bloated. We need to reset back to simple shit and move from there. I don't want to see another fg if it isn't just footsies, special moves, and maybe a super gauge.

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

For 4* to remain good past getting 5* servants they have to offer something unique and all Mecha Eli offers is a spunky robot that does damage. A need that is fulfilled once you get a bigger Alter Ego like Bazett or Tiamat let alone an actual Berserker who covers everything unlike AE or Pretender.

000

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

She would inevitably be seen as rather mediocre even after Buster's resurgence. Her buffs to Final Eli-chan were strong, but the other buffs plus never receiving an NP damage buff really pushed her down. It is the fate of lower rarities to become more irrelevant once you have 5* contemporaries...

100

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

She was still an okay choice past that for a little, but once Skadi hit that was it for anyone who already had Melt. Alter Ego's had an interesting history as by and large the class is still not impressive, but it has had its glory days and one could say it started with the little mecha dragon girl.

100

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

Combined with this she had decent access to crit stars through Innocent Kaiju and Merlin, an NP charge (Albeit a pretty weak one), and could increase her own NP damage. She had a decent supply of buffs and the Merlin support made it so she could dish out a lot very quickly.

100

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

This is where Mecha Eli was really valuable as she was the sole Alter Ego already seeing use because of the rarity of actual good ST assassins and casters and now she just shits on the main boss of Salem. By getting her you also got NP5 if you kept up on the event so damage wise she was strong.

100

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

The class was bad and there was never a meaningful reason to justify using anyone in it over a servant in the main classes who could do the job as easily, at least not until Salem where Foreigner got introduced and the second Extra triangle began to form.

100

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

And Okita Alter who by all accounts was fine, but suffered from being an AOE servant so justifying using her typing was difficult at times if there was a knight mixed in to the enemy group. Melt didn't have proper support so she got written off quickly and Kiara did negative damage.

100

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

This was the year of the Alter Ego class' debut and we got hella Alter Egos between the Sakurafaces, Kiara, Okita Alter, and Mecha Eli. This did end up being a class that sucked for a bit though. By the end of the year our best Alter Ego characters were the 4* servants.

100

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

My last character of 2017 I wanted to talk about, Mecha Eli. I think I made an implication with talking about Liz where none of the early Liz halloween variants were good and if so, I was wrong because Mecha Eli was insanely valuable for quite a while.

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

Got buffed to allow her to turn all of her cards into buster cards. You just take her now and whack em with the stick. Koyanskaya's made it so easy to be belligerent with her.

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

I do feel like Saber's someone I've come to like having around. I initially got her in FGO trying to get Merlin on one of his rerun banners and got so fucking frustrated. Now though? I can say I've used her more than a bit and she's really fuckin good especially after her stupid ass buster skill...

100

Joseph Mother @caribbeanragna.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

Saber's probably the earliest brush I had with the concept of dysphoria and I had absolutely no understanding of this shit in my teens so it flew over my fucking head. So I completely missed out on that whereas now I have a better appreciation for this concept as a whole.
