@monorail @Alexis I watched like the first season of it and was like "haha this is pretty neat I kinda like their take on it!" and... then it just... got worse. and worse.
and then I realised it had ALWAYS been that bad. after I read some of the original stories and I mean....
...friggin... Sherlock is still kinda a dick, but at least his deductions (technically actually INductive logic, not deductive? Apparently?) are set up well and shown to the readers, so they could conceivably work it out
@Alexis @monorail honestly all you have to do is add "and Sherlock comes in, does that Mind Palace bullshit, then exposits a bunch of stuff as to what the crime was, who did it and how, with clues that were NEVER SHOWN AT ALL before hand in this episode, and then sits smugly solving the case and being shit to everyone else" and boom episode of Sherlock, no matter the context.
@mavica double the reason for me to reply here again then! :D
@mavica fffuck. I know I posted on birdsite in agreement with this but goddamn this deserves mentioning again because FUCK there is nothin gbetter than tightening glasses, putting them back on and just... feeling the difference, not having wiggly floppy slidy frames any more
@GlitterDisaster is grump because up early or someone patted her head and made fun of her size and she's gonna nutpunch some dingus?
@noiob @Siphonay@octodon.social twitter vs telegram in a tournament to see who can murder image fidelity the most
@monorail How'd they manage to crack the barrier of having to do half-a-presses and building up speed for several years
@zpojqwfejwfhiunz no it's rude to slide into someone's Direct Images.
@masklayer have you tried going bacon instead, it's tastier
@avie@awoo.space @GlitterDisaster gosh! Look! Two softs! *petpets, snugs bof!*
@joshua well first you scien
then you tist.
there's another step in the middle I think, some rumours about it being years of studying and going to higher education and writing theses or something but psh, I think that's fake tbh
VNs i remember playing and how they made me feel:
• Va-11 Hall-A: like i had cool cyberpunk friends
• Heaven Will Be Mine: terrified, horny
• We Know the Devil: massive nostalgia for summer camp
• Ladykiller in a Bind: confused, horny, also flashbacks to when i used to get constantly mistaken for my brother by my family and friends
• Dream Daddy: my smugness over having the best daughter transcended gender and orientation
• 2064: Read Only Memories: like i had cool cyberpunk acquaintances who might have become friends if we had not had to babysit constantly
• Coffee Talk: like i was playing Va-11 Hall-A but not as long or good and also set in the Shadowrun universe for some reason
• Mass Effect: productively horny, extremely well-armed
• Sunless Sea: tense in a good way, frustrated by slow boats and broken economy in a bad way, THE SUN THE SUN THE SUN THE SUN
• Night in the Woods: overwhelming sense of relief about not having grown up in Pennsylvania
• Stardew Valley: farming minigame constantly got in the way of my bucolic cottagecore lifestyle
• Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty: frustrated by limited romantic choices but still worth playing both routes
• Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm: stuck in loveless marriage that nobody can get up the maturity to end
• Starcraft II: Legacy of the Void: i'm actually not 100% sure this was a VN
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
