DAMMIT URIANGER, DON'T YOU DARE MAKE ME SAY 'WELL YOU'RE HOT NOW' TO YOUR FACE.

stupid sexy urianger..................

here we go, i attended urianger's lecture and took notes, #ffxiv tag

this is WITHOUT ANY SHADOWBRINGERS SPOILERS, no twists/how characters in that setting would see it, but instead me writing down the "as you already know..." bits, plus a little of my own speculation. since this is taught as part of a basic education, this is something that our characters are very likely to know, but we ourselves aren't so likely to know, lol

incidentally one of my fav ffxiv memories is when friends dragged me through Alexander, explaining mechanics along the way

but they were suspiciously quiet for Brute Justice. "no no, go in blind, it's so much better that way, it's fine we're overgeared so we can just rez you"

they were right

i promptly died laughing but it was so worth it

so there's your pro tip of unsolicited advice folks

if you feel like you're stuck, going "ugh, i wonder why i keep feeling so anxious/lethargic/easily distracted/easily frustrated/unable to think well/confused", and it's a psych symptom that seems to pass within hours instead of within say weeks,

write a food diary, compare it to diabetic diets, and if you can track trouble spots to something like "after i eat lunch"? yeah your blood sugar's fucking with you on some level lol

but also for real i'm starting to think some base level psych treatment should be a quick rundown from a dietician

not that it's gonna cure your mental illness, but just like not having a regular sleep schedule, if you try to be on top of mental health while your blood sugar is being on a rollercoaster, you're going to have a bad time pushing past that

sure, it's not harmful like for diabetics, but "hangry" is a commonly recognized Thing even among neurotypicals lol

i should probably hop on ffxiv and do some msq instead of continuing to blight innocent people on here with Far Too Many Words

(and even then, it's funny, because i feel like they do the opposite. kojima promised a big important story, and then delivered a collapsed souffle of Uhhh Nanomachines I Guess. taro tells a compelling story that treats the women in his stories as actual whole complete people, often with far more agency than anyone else there, and keeps the fanservice around to intentionally subvert the expectation and games standard of "oh this is the t&a character, she just looks pretty".)

y'know, it's funny how i get along with yoko taro far more than i do hideo kojima as far as 'video game authors with extended complex stories to tell' goes

mostly because kojima told us "no no there's important story reasons why she's in a bikini! when i tell you, you will be ASHAMED of your WORDS and DEEDS"

meanwhile yoko taro is just "yeah it's because i want her to step on me and she looks really sexy. next question"

guess what

mateus was open for character creation so i have now made
