The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

Upon reflection realizing that FF16 Cid reminded me of another Cid...I initially just meant this aesthetically but also now that I think of it trying to overthrow the crystals

I spent so long fighting muscle memory in FF15 because I felt like Square was the more natural-seeming Attack button but it was on Circle, and then FF16 flips them back around and I'm having to un-learn the muscle memory I built in FF15.

Loose FF16 thoughts now that I'm about 10-12 hours in: why do you have a jump button if your jump is so comically small. I know it's for combat so you can enemy step after doing it, it still feels very silly especially when I use it while traversing like I can get over anything with it.

Been listening through the FF9 soundtrack lately and was intrigued by one of the songs being labeled as being for a coke commercial, so I looked it up www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnaC... Very curious how this got made, like presumably this is an actual FMV that Square had to put together?

Why does this FF9 song sound like it belongs in Monkey Island. I can vividly imagine using a Rubber Chicken on everything in sight to try to get something to happen while this plays. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIJ7...

More Mitch Hedberg, reading:

I finished a 1CC of Gradius the other day, and the end credits just read "by Konami". I guess that was the one credit. I don't know what I was expecting. Maybe next time I'll get a 2CC and find out who made the graphics.

Been trying to catch back up on my Indiepocalypse backlog and had a really nice time with NOCTUNE, a sort of puzzle-RPG where you have to figure out what order to fight enemies in to preserve your HP. Lots of fun secret-hunting in the environment too. It's free on itch: twewyb.itch.io/nocturne

Finished Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, really fun puzzle game. I ALMOST cracked and looked up a hint on like 3 different puzzles, but in each case I gave myself some extra time to think on it, came back fresh (sometimes multiple times lol) and managed to solve them. And that's a great feeling.

On top of FF15/16, I got a random grab-bag of new games from the Summer Sale and have been digging into them a bit over the past few days and having a blast. First up is Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, which is a really nice puzzle game about exploring a hotel while a very peculiar kind of art happens.

Got FF15/16 on the cheap in the steam sale, so my tour through the franchise will be continuing Soon (tm). Fortunately the games take forever to make now so even after dawdling after finishing Heavensward I'm not really losing ground.

Really cool album; I have no real idea where to start in terms of describing its genre. Encartawave? Eyewitnesscore? (also, part of a great thread with lots of other stuff to pick through, I'll definitely be checking more of the recs out)

Finished Okami tonight, it was a really good time. Especially enjoyed the creativity of the last boss fight, even if it might have been a little bit long overall. Fun to see its big soup of Japanese myths; it made for some really fun character/enemy designs. And man is the game still gorgeous.

Team Jericho's entrance at Double or Nothing syncs so well to the Baccano! opening that I'm convinced it was the inspiration.

Got a bizarre spam voice mail that opened with like...30-45 seconds of music before going into the actual scammy message. And this wasn't just on-hold muzak, it was like...some kind of funky electronica. And it was crunched to hell.

Been playing through Okami recently after finding it gathering dust in my steam library, and it's been a lot of fun. It's interesting to see a game with a lot of clear Zelda DNA but being executed by a team bringing a lot of their own sauce to the process.

Finished up Demon Turf this morning; it was a good time! I was a little surprised how many revisit levels were required to unlock the boss, but it was a fun excuse to check out their level remix philosophy.

I didn't realize your color customizations in Demon Turf showed up on the main menu/loading screens, that's neat. And they trick out your powers, like your double-jump form. Fun little touch.

I'm finally up-to-date with One Piece after starting back in September. It's been fun to get across and see how the story has changed shapes over the course of its run. I'm a little less fond of some of the post-timeskip stuff but there's still a lot to like in there.

FOUND IT
Parody of the classic chart of The Hero's Journey, labeled as The Fool's Errand. Divided into two sections: Unknown and Unknown. It is a great circle.

- Opportunity to gain
- Supernatural Prank
- Unheeded Advice
Here, the Fool passes from the Unknown into the Unknown
- Slip 'n' fall (intensification of error)
- Helper (who always lies)
- Old man (mistaken for wise)
- Seductions and Temptations
- Helper (who also always lies)
- CONFUSION - Hall of Mirrors - confrontation with the self
- Stumbling through the thorns
- The Unforgivable Misunderstanding
Passing from the Unknown back into the Unknown
- (Rejection of the Goddess)
- Coming home before he's supposed to

Happy to have another excuse to write about Final Fantasy 11, which recently broke in the exact right way to force its Games Masters into doing something extremely funny:
pcgamer.com
After a server glitch, Final Fantasy 11 is dispatching Game Masters to manually assassinate bugged monsters just so the game knows they're really dead: 'God personally stepping in to correct the world...
Sometimes there's only one way to be sure.
