@eightbitsamurai@elekk.xyz it kinda reminds me of fallout 4 honestly. i personally think me:a and fo4 are both kinda meh, neither really grabbed me by the short and curlies as it were, but i know that a lot of that is that they've got a hell of a thing to follow.
when you're following a really, really truly excellent one-of-the-best-of-this-decade game, like fallout new vegas (YES I'M ONE OF THOSE FNV FANS SORRY), a game that's "good but not the best" ends up reading as a massive flop
@eightbitsamurai@elekk.xyz tbh i think me:a mostly got a raw deal because me2 and me3 were excellent. even if i think the story of me3 fucked up in the 11th hour, the rest of the game has excellent polish, the combat is honestly a joy (which is quite the switch from me1, it's like me1's combat is the fucking purgatory you must endure to get to me3's bliss)... it's a tough fucking act to follow. a lot of bugs at launch have been patched, and personally me:a didn't grab me, but what would after me3?
maybe it'll take until the homestuck play comes out, then the series of bad movies, for everyone to sort of give up on homestuck being good. alternatively, maybe hussie needs to start tweeting really bad takes and liking terfs?
either way, homestuck cosplayers, please consider paying reparations to your local anime cons because you absolutely didn't seal that body paint as well as you thought you did if you even sealed it at all

@InspectorCaracal you make the bold assumption that i... know how to program

re: tongue in cheek re: in which a wigglytuff subtoots
@InspectorCaracal listen you're making the bold assumption that i know, like, any anime after What Was On Toonami Circa 2006
it's like, inuyasha and lupin the third and i am pretty sure that lupin is Not Bishonen
maybe goemon if you push it
jigen will likely shoot you if you try
tongue in cheek re: in which a wigglytuff subtoots
@InspectorCaracal whelp, time to learn Fortran so i can publish a treatise with Sesshomarou having a nip slip on the cover
i think i'm officially just tired and frustrated and hurting so i should probably just take some painkillers and go the fuck to sleep instead of ranting
nonetheless, i remain increasingly fed up with the casual bigotry that gets a pass, even in 'enlightened' spaces, with "but it's a funny meme!" or "i'm being ironic!" or "but it's anime though!" or a thousand other excuses
yes he reads theory, but does he think at all about the media he creates and passes along? ...or do the dishes?

"here's the moe anime girl cover of my computer programming book"
thanks, i think i just broke out in hives! congrats on your accomplishment of deciding the best way to promote your work of computer science is to tack some 14-year-old anime girls in short skirts on there, because that's what computer science has been missing this whole time: the smarm of boy's-club-only anime-convention neckbeard grease.
in which a wigglytuff has a moment of egregious cishettery
he's just a very very handsome lad that i would like to alternate between snuggling obnoxiously, and then maybe riding like a rented pony
i even fully accept that if kiryu was approximately near my location, majimas would begin physically manifesting in my house
i'm willing to undergo the Majima Everywhere mechanic
even at 3am
as i'm going to get a glass of water
look at this man. wonderful. flawless.
in which a wigglytuff has a moment of egregious cishettery
i got really sad for a moment about how i'm too sick to play ffxiv like i want and what used to be my main refuge has become a quagmire of guilt and shame
so i looked up some happy yakuza music to make myself feel better
and i remembered that kiryu.............. is handsome........................ https://i.gifer.com/2HRR.gif
