Jealous of my younger self, who had ample free time to throw 300 hours into XCX. Wish more games had cool mechs with giant laser swords as a means of open world traversal

I really liked the 3D but having to hold a 3DS (especially the new XL model) perfectly in place at the right distance is just kinda… tiring lol

Love 2 and especially 4, covering the “shattered” side with bangs but still leaving them visible is a very cool look. A prince-like straight medium bob might also look cute

Like why has all the press coverage been about the thread count of Jason’s boxers or how often and how long you get to see his dick I guess I have overestimated Rockstar

Yknow GTA was never my thing, but I did enjoy RDR2, and I thought the whole appeal of these games was just supposed to be dumb silly fun and maybe some solid character writing here and there. Video game ass video games, right? But this new one seems to be… missing that point?

No but you don’t understand, the stories being told with this character are very important, such as “what’re you staring at anon?” Volume 25686

Idk if I love the towns THAT much in Cave Story, they’re cute n all but really it’s just that I love that when you play Cave Story, it feels like half the game is just a town. Because even when you’re knee deep in some action section or w/e, you can always just stumble upon Some Guy’s House

I had planned to actually do Swordtember this year and draw fire emblem characters everyday, but I just… didn’t, lmao. But still got the urge to draw my favorite war children, so this honestly sounds like a really cool idea

fatmyth.bsky.social @fatmyth.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Yeah pretty much. Whenever I meet guys who’re into anime it’s usually just like whatever Fight Show is hot rn, and their idea of anime discussion is just a Hot Take contest

Got one of these, but mine is definitely not “barely used” lol. Got it when it was first released, and now the gold is chipped away pretty badly. All the buttons still work, tho. Would love to get it boo’d up with a fresh case and buttons someday.

Yknow with them being separate characters in smash now, I think a fair amount of people will find out from the remake. At the very least, this will be the first sheik reveal for a lot of the kiddos that play, which does tickle my heart strings

Also really hilarious that the first village I visited was just an old man explaining the weapon triangle to me, and the second village was some random guy being like “did you know? Sigurd is the descendant of Balor, the ancient god of light” (Prolly got the name wrong please don’t beat me up)

fatmyth.bsky.social @fatmyth.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Finally got around to starting Fire Emblem 4. Wow Sigurd is op. Also did not expect the dialogue to whiplash so hard between fantasy world building and 90’s anime banter Also as bad as these unmounted losers feel to slowly move across the map, I am compelled to feed them. Arden is my new goat

Yeah same, and it also just feels unnecessary on a platform where I’m not engaging at all with people I know irl. There’s no point in being identifiable to randos that way when I’m one of like 5 people in my zip code using bluesky to talk about video games with freaks (positive connotation)

Lately I feel like my compositions are kinda nice but my execution is slipping because I’m not drawing Literally Every Day like I was a few months ago Still feels good to see marginal improvement tho

The “I always knew” posts are pretty gross. I don’t think these weirdos understand how skilled abusers are at finding new communities to slip in to and remain undetected.

I didn’t see anything about holding yourself accountable, other than admitting your prior consequences were mild. You didn’t “make up for it” by having a wildly successful career, because *this* is the fly in the ointment. Everything you’ve done is preceded by a lie, and worse, a breach of trust.

“Lil spirit guys in the forest” is kinda baked into Japanese folklore, so that was always something they could’ve drawn from, but you’re probably right in that popular media at the time is a very relevant factor. Prolly also why the remake looks like every Hire This Man demo ever lol

You could even just argue that they were kids in OoT so it would make sense that Link thought he was a Kokiri, and they were tree sprouts after because… well, that just makes more sense, since they’re the children of a giant magic tree. Saying it now, kinda sounds like sumn Miyamoto would say, idk

Of course, use this in addition to the other great advice in this thread, such as simply saying “that’s fucked up.” And don’t forget to use that diaphragm

Ask them to repeat themselves. This works especially well if everyone definitely heard it. If they try to skate around it, just repeat it yourself, like a question. Sometimes it’s best to let fools make fools of themselves. If it’s someone genuinely capable of change, they’ll reflect on it.

Not sure what happened but somehow the mental block that made me think SFC Fire Emblem games were “too dusty and complicated” has worn down. …kinda already playing Engage rn lol but I guess I will grab the translation patches and add them to the backlog. And play them. Some day.

Feel like Nintendo does this a lot too. Can’t count how many times they’ve baited us with a big franchise logo that turns out to be a trailer for a bad Mario party clone or a mobile game

fatmyth.bsky.social @fatmyth.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
I guess it feels trite because it’s become a common cog in the content machine (bars) but when I was like 12 I watched videos like that and went “huh, this Mothers 3 game seems interesting” and now I am forever changed

fatmyth.bsky.social @fatmyth.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Sometimes I feel like the way we (and I say we because I’ve done this too lol) clown on those yt videos that are like “top 10 games you’ve never heard of” and it’s just like 10 games of known quality that just don’t have franchises. Is a lil too harsh? Like I know it’s a free dunk, but… cmon lol

fatmyth.bsky.social @fatmyth.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Yeah some of those adventure mode maps can get pretty brutal, especially some of the character locked ones if you haven’t leveled that particular character up/aren’t that good with their playstyle

Engage did kill my grandma, but doing so saved the 5 people tied to the other tracks, so we cool

I even saw someone say that having to replay a game for a true ending is bad design and a disrespect of the player’s time… like no dawg, that just means the true ending is not for you

I think in general, people on here (the internet) can’t separate their own preferences from the way they evaluate games. Like it’s ok to not like timers or high difficulty or whatever, but as it turns out, many people feel differently, and there are “less abrasive” games out there for you

fatmyth.bsky.social @fatmyth.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Everytime I try, I realize I’m only willing to put up with the difficulty of these games if I also get to do cool stuff. like use cool looking gundam ass armor or do front flips with a laser sword

Single digit % bonuses are meaningless to me, and I actually like number go up nonsense.

No. But maybe consider whether you want to pay full retail for it or not.

Not sure if I want the board game I’m making to play more like a lot war game, or like Catan, or maybe some freak ass mix of both. But hopefully rolling dice and moving pretty cardboard cutouts on a death march will put me on the path that leads to that answer

fatmyth.bsky.social @fatmyth.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
For the past 3 months, I’ve been quietly working on a board game (something I’ve never done before) loosely inspired by fire emblem, and only just now did I think to myself “huh I should try playing a tabletop war game for reference” So I found a one page rules game to try out with some friends

fatmyth.bsky.social @fatmyth.bsky.social · 23/09/2026
I think the only bad thing you can really say about it is that it has the least Zelda screentime of any of the 3D games besides MM, which is a damn shame because her design in TP is sick

Ok if you read this far then I must really insist you check out my blog, link in bio (and also right here!) fatmyth.wordpress.com I’ve written about some but not all of these games there, and many more. Mostly just whatever I can’t stop thinking about. New posts soon!
