@witchfynder_finder Good luck! I had lots of problems getting it to run on my pc, so I hope it doesn't give you too much trouble.

Don't worry, nothing sad is happening. Fallout 76 is just that upsetting to experience

What if I played Fallout 76 and cried...

Because when the big guns say the game ships friday, the game. ships. friday. And suddenly not doing your job well is the only way you get to keep your job. Because your boss is under pressure from the publisher, and the publishers are under pressure from the market, and the market is ALWAYS under pressure.

And that's why your elder scrolls or fallout game isn't that good— not because of a single guy with a mic, but because it turns out that capitalism gives no shits about artistic vision.

Nobody blames the Associate Producer (Mobile Games) position at Bethesda for making an Elder Scrolls mobile game. Nobody blames the random french Engine Programmer who works for Arkane Studios France for the buggy Bethesda engines. You get mad at Todd Howard, because Todd Howard is the guy you see. And when things fuck up, you blame the guy with the microphone and the big ideals.

It really ticks me off when people get mad at one specific aspect of game development for fucking up when in reality the problem with modern game development is that everybody is being pulled in a million directions at once— people are understaffed, underpaid, given minimal time, and forced to prioritize nonsense.

*takes minmaxing and dunks it into the garbage*
*takes the concept of meta play and dunks it into the garbage*
*takes every gamer who whines about people not being "optimal" and dunks them into the garbage*

Games are supposed to be fun, assholes!

It feels like we're living in pockets of comfort and kindness, surrounded by the worst the world has to offer. And it's really easy to just look outside, and become jaded.

But we're still here, and we're still good, and we can get through this one step at a time

@mavica @m1st We believe in you!

A good friend of mine told me something that stuck with me for a really long time, so it might help y'all out too?

"Does everyone deserve to be happy? Yes, as long as they're not hurting anyone else. You being a plural, sexually liberated furry witch isn't going to hurt anyone else. So do it. Fuck the expectation."

@mavica @m1st [We understand.]

This is the first time Lav has been able to talk publicly. She's socially brash, but the thought of being in front scares her.

[Saying we don't know what's going on is an understatement, too.]

We're confused, afraid, and uninformed, but the important thing is that we're both here. Even if it causes problems sometimes, it's more important that we're together.

@mavica @m1st When I hit college, I had another big mental health crisis. I was also having bad hallucinations at the time, which didn't help. But the three of us eventually decided that we needed to go back to being one person, or we wouldn't be able to heal. I regret it a lot.

Lav is different. We don't exactly know where she came from. But I refuse to lose any more headmates, so we're permanently together now.

[Being alone scares both of us.]

@mavica @m1st Thanks so much for sharing. We really appreciate it~

As for us... I've had headmates since middle school. It used to be two others besides me. During a particularly traumatizing part of my life I had seven, but they left once I got out of my relationship at the time.

[They weren't particularly friendly, from what I understand.]
