Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 13hYou can use Joan's like, holy barrier effect to parry attacks right before they hit you. So it's not like, parrying with a weapon, more with the aura around her. Most of the time it's not bad, most attacks are pretty telegraphed. It's better than a lot of parries in games, honestly. I'm just tired 100
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 13hI didn't even THINK you could get to Medusa before fighting her. No, not Medusa, The Warrior. 100
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 13hWatching Evil Dead 2 tonight for the first time. Damn, Bruce Campbell is a good lookin' guy. I feel like there's an alternate universe where he was picked up to play Superman, cause I really feel like he could pull it off. Does that make sense? 15834
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 14hI know some people talk about "parryslop". I will not be calling it that until I am forced to, but it really does feel like parrying is becoming the big thing in every game, the way Soulslike body collecting mechanics were for a while. 2221
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 14hOne more thing about the new Castlevania... I'm really tired of indie games forcing you to parry. If I had known this game had lots of parrying in it, I might not have bought it. Cause why would a Castlevania game be filled with required parries? Not technically REQUIRED I guess, but good luck. 7302
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 15hBut. The main character is a lady Belmont. And I've wanted that since the 90s. (Sonia does not count. I know.) Rose is pretty cool. She looks just like the anime Sypha design though, which I guess makes sense lol Anyways I will play more, but its intensive on the hands, so I need a break for now. 1110
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 15hAfter six hours of the new Castlevania, my opinion so far is... its fine. Okay combat that's honestly overstaying its welcome (basically every room has a combat arena), alright story that relies a lot on fanservice, and okay platforming challenging that don't feel very Castlevania-y. 2170
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 21hSuper excited for the new Caves of Qud expansion: Diaspora! It looks really neat. I feel bad for whoever put the name into Steam though, because they appear to have dyslexia and called it "Disapora", and I imagine Steam's backend is ass that makes that impossible to change. Excited for Disapora!store.steampowered.comCaves of Qud: Disapora on SteamPlay as a mutated plant or animal in the first expansion to Caves of Qud. The world currents are in flux, and a diaspora brings a host of new features to the region: new mutations, new creatures, new ... 291
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 15/10/2026tbh even though I don't really know anything about WH40K, what I DO know is you can't trust the fanbase to actually Get it, so I'm worried there's some real landmines in there. 230
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 14/10/2026He kinda looks like a late 90s early 2000s creepy pasta. He's giving Jeff the Killer vibes, actually 050
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Was watching a Dropout compilation video and paused at the best time Look at this picture of Brennan Lee Mulligan pogging out of his gourd Honestly if you didn't tell me this was Brennan (and he wasn't wearing the shirt), I wouldn't even know, he's morphed into a totally different person 2100
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 14/10/2026My mom doesnt really talk about people she dislikes. If she hates, she hates quietly. My DAD on the other hand... Every time Taylor Swift comes up, he has to let everyone know he hates her. My niece is a Swiftie and I can see him vibrating with annoyance any time she talks about her. 1150

Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 13/10/2026It would fill me with extreme dread, actually God please, no 120
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Had a dream GDQ was just a summer camp and everyone at it suddenly started ignoring me like I wasnt there. All my loved ones, even my partners, just kinda abandoned me. Also hair started growing out of my tongue. Been a while since I had such a 14 year old coded dream tbh lmao minus the hair thing 1180
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Imagine a world where Deltarune released all at once. People would have never latched onto characters that are overly minor like they did. We would never have gotten all that Tenna x Spamton crackfic. Truly, the darkest timeline. 0130
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 13/10/2026When Toby said we're in a magical time when we can still make silly theories, he was right. You couldn't have anything like this if not for the delayed episodic release cycle. Theres little else like this. Its a really unique ecosystem of thought. 1130
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 13/10/2026My favorites in no particular order are Kris Amputation Theory Susie Is a Human Theory Gerson's Son is the Knight Evil Ralsei Theory Kris has a huge crush on Berdly And the best crackpot Deltarune theory: Roulx Kaard is W.D. Gaster, and thus the most important character in the game. 190
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Finally caught up with Deltarune. What a good game that is so far. Instead of talking about the game though, I wanna talk about theories. I've seen so many wild ones in the past eight years, and there's certainly far more out there, already proven wrong Which are your favorites? 8171
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Visiting my father at the hospital, they had to take my picture and print it out for a visiting pass The image they took makes me look like a D-tier SCP creepy pasta post. Honestly, I'm impressed they appear to have bought Gameboy Cameras for their security system. 3705
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 12/10/2026"Got those sega saturn pics boss, real sexy, just like you asked" 061
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Oh I didnt mean it in a bad way. This is a good thing to me. I wish every 3D animation looked like it was from the GameCube. 020
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I need to get new glasses. I kinda wish those anime swirly glasses were real (and wouldnt obstruct my vision) cause I feel like I could prolly rock the swirly glasses pervert look 1411
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Thats honestly just the art style of the show. It feels like a late era GameCube game sometimes. 130
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Watching Star Trek Prodigy season 2, and NO. NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO MAKE CHAKOTAY HOT. I REJECT THIS ON A FUNDAMENTAL LEVEL. This is OFFENSIVE to me. 3253
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Jubilee IS my favorite, by choice, and has been since I was a kid so I'm super happy :3 030
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 11/10/2026lmfao I feel like every GDQ runner has dreams like this sometimes. I once had a dream a Doom runner called out so they dragged me on stage even though I haven't played Doom in like 20 years It's the GDQ version of the "not knowing a test was scheduled today" dreams 120
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 11/10/2026As the event was starting I was curled up in a blanket in my basement on the floor in front of a bunch of cameras and stuff with the managers as a nameless entity sending me messages like "YOU ARE ON. GO LIVE, NOW" as I was a depression burrito not sure wtf to do but I HAD to be chipper to the fans 3130
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 11/10/2026In my dream last night, I was a high level streamer with an idol theme and an idol management studio. They were trying to force me into this big event, but I had to plan everything. I was depressed and anxious and tbh NOT suited for idol stuff, so I just streamed Sega Saturn fighting games. 2190
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 11/10/2026This game's writing is actually a step above any Fire Emblem I've played, but it seriously feels like they think bandits are just a natural thing that spawns out of the air. They never think about anything behind them, any forces that might cause them or who they are. Just, bam. Spontaneous Bandits. 5170
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Fire Emblem Fortune Weave's intentions: "This is a world with dark forces twisting people behind the scenes, tempting good people with power so that they fall to ruin" What I've taken away from Fortune's Weave: "Dadga has a really fucking bad bandit problem and everyone is ignoring it." 2201
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Had a dream I was staying with a nice foster family who were actually all vampires trying to eat and kill me They kept trying to make me drink soda to get my blood sweet so I ate bitter things to stay alive I tried to stab the patriarchy with a novelty giant pencil but it didnt work. 3211
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Maybe if they decide THIS is a danger too and suspend me for three days it'll be the excuse I need to leave this fucking hellhole I never wanted to be a part of anyway God I miss Cohost. 2510
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 10/10/2026In all seriousness I tend not to get dinged for moderation stuff, as someone who works in moderation and safety, usually I'm pretty chill. I'm just kind of Mad. I'm ALWAYS mad about this ftr, so imagine how fucking mad I am right now! At least they only gave me 2 strikes? Thanks for sympathizing? 1390
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Wow, had my first ever moderation thing on bsky Apparently saying I'm gonna become the joker at politicians if my dad dies due to their shitty medical policies is bad. Shoulda said the politicians will enjoy the camps. I apologize and I'm trying to do better. 1863
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 10/10/2026That's a really good point for Talent Left Standing tbh. I had it down in B but bumped it up a bit, maybe I should bump it back down lol I felt some of the game design was a little unfortunate in general this season. It was certainly a season of highs and mehs. 010
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 10/10/2026And I'm PRETTY sure you live in the PNW, one of the places in the country lauded for having some of the most functional healthcare! Better than the south east, at least. 110
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 10/10/2026My poor mom was ALSO driving a family friend who's been diagnosed with cancer too and from the hospital so she's sat there for like 8 fucking hours 3 separate days this week. Poor mom. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. Nothing worse than sitting around and being ignored by doctors and nurses. 290
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 10/10/2026My dad went to the emergency room today. His blood pressure was 220/109, which is nuts. Six hours later they still don't have a bed for him. I called my mom to get an update and the thing they hooked him up to was blaring out an alarm that his blood pressure was high again. No nurses showed up. 4190
Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 09/10/2026"Do you trust mail voting? Do you agree we should do away with it" I agree 100%, I do NOT trust male voting. They shouldn't be allowed to. 1201
