Dunno what this was but apparently lying in bed for four days straight finally kicked it

I would like to stop being sick now Seen enough doctors and done enough tests to be reasonably assured it probably isn't anything serious, but it's really hanging around

Not every day but a lot of days I wonder if I just liked XC2 more because I played it in JP The iffy EN dub isn't the only issue with it, I'll freely admit most of my enjoyment comes from how the story comes together in the last 10 hours, but it sure is a debuff to every moment you spend with it

Finally beat Tsubaki's Hard combo challenge #10, good lord The rest of her Hard combos really aren't bad at all but this one is heinous This screenshot shows nothing but I took it in my excitement so have it anyway

Am I going to fool myself into thinking I'm going to finish a Fire Emblem game for the third time in a row

Played the Anomalith demo This is clearly a game on a tight budget (and it particularly shows in the animations), but the gameplay was more fun than I was expecting. I could see it getting repetitive depending on scope, but within the demo I had a good time with it

In the line for an FFXIV event Just heard the guy next to me accidentally refer to ダンシング・グリーン as ダンシング・クイーン and get grink'd by his friends in real time

There is no amount of Kyoto Xanadu you can play that the Viva la Vida BGM will stop catching you off guard

I'VE HAD MY SHIRT ON INSIDE OUT ALL DAY i'm walking into the sea

There's a burger place near me which is pretty good but they share an access staircase with an italian restaurant that has odd opening hours and always has a "Sorry we're closed" sign next to the entrance so I think they never get any custom

Need them to put my spine into the machine that crimps paper

Got good sleep for the first time in days One with my bed now, never getting out

My body's been fighting off this damn cold/flu/thing for over a week and it will not stop moving around. It's in my ears/sinuses now. White blood cells chasing it around my respiratory system like Benny Hill

quite annoying that the Blazblue wiki defaults to fan tls for key terms, which is not only very condescending to the (broadly extremely good) localisation, it also makes the place incomprehensible to anyone who has merely played these games without internalising this weird fansite shibboleth

Someone said nice things about my translation again :)

Man, I really liked this scene. Arianna, the eternal ray of sunshine, finally opening up to Souma in a private moment and confessing she's never really thought she's good enough—with the knowledge that he's imminently going to betray her hanging over the whole conversation like the sword of Damocles

I guess I get why they didn't but I do sorta wish Kyoto Xanadu had more actual Kyoto accents in it I have encountered a character who has a bit of one but aside from when she's talking with fellow geisha she just speaks very standard Japanese with a slight lilt

Really not sure I like the narrative design implications of this new XIV system. If the story has to support like three parallel threads that don't touch each other for a large part of its runtime, that's going to be really limiting

Okay this is funny (maid at a maid cafe chanting a spell to make the food delicious except the spell she's chanting is the fucking kuji-kiri)

This is more or less the plot of Trails in the Sky FC+SC if I remember right

Finished Schrödinger's Call a week ago and I've just been sitting with it I think there are things that are actually not good about this game - I don't like how shallow the first few chapters are (rot13 - rira vs gurer gheaf bhg gb or n tbbq ernfba, lbh fgvyy unir gb ernq gurz)...

I have encountered significantly more characters in Kyoto Xanadu but my opinion remains "I like the っす creature"

recently the world has been trying to convince me of the existence of something called "Dungeon Crawler Carl" and I'm just not buying it

I was tabbing through blazblue videos and heard the words "We are the messengers and hammers of God, come to deliver righteous justice" and it activated 15-year-old brainworms I didn't even know were still in there

they should invent a vending machine iced coffee that doesn't taste bad

this has been clearing up but I went to see the doc about it anyway and he was like "you're fine" so that's good I guess

Been fighting some weird chest infection for the past couple days uuuuuuurgh

I like the っす creature

The groove on some of these Kyoto Xanadu tracks is downright illegal
