Pet peeve: when I know that someone will enjoy something but they refuse to engage because they don't want to try new things

It's like experiencing the overarching time pressure of the ACT but in time loop form. Not good for anxiety

Majora's Mask is like the only Zelda game I've never beaten because the time mechanic stresses me the fuck out

@Kat@snouts.online a FFXIV raid but everybody rotates their combat role between phases

Why are we always so touch starved

How are you supposed to feel when a dream truly, genuinely means something to you? When it gives you a feeling that you hold close to your heart for weeks afterwards? It can't just be meaningless— I've already experienced the meaning.

I know dreams aren't supposed to mean anything, but that sentiment isn't good enough for me.

@EeveeEuphoria no... I'm not strong enough....

Been having a panic attack in slow motion all day

What if I just made a video game

Okay maybe that's just me

Growing up means realizing that Tracer Tong was kind of right about decentralization

More on this thought in the morning. I'm tired

This is a generalization obviously. FFXIV has a ton of low-level grind mechanics that I could enjoy without ever touching raids. And there are plenty of games that offer raiding gameplay without the pressure of other people. But it's also... different somehow, in a way I can't explain.

Look, I either want high-level tests of mechanical knowledge and skill where I get to grind it out by myself, OR I want low-level vibing out that I can experience with other people without feeling pressured. And I somehow never manage to find either.

Every time I play an MMO I'm like "hm I wish this wasn't an MMO" and every time I play a solo game I'm like "hm I wish this was an MMO"

@Ophillous@snouts.online Why do you think space shuttles have so much equipment inside? They need to fill all the block metadata so that they can breathe :)

It's like when a website bitches at me for using adblock. I will enjoy your content, I will support you monetarily if I feel like it, but I will NOT roll over like a dog so that you can get a few bucks of ad revenue

It makes me irrationally angry when youtubers do the "X% of my viewers aren't subscribed, so hit that like button!" thing. And I get it. You have analytics, youtube is a hellscape, you need to use every trick in the book.

But I have this knee-jerk reaction that if you're going to obsess over that percentage of non-subscribers, then I will GLADLY be the one to crush you by refusing to subscribe
