I'm bad at video games but I love talking/yelling about them. We're here for a good time so let's have one together. Smite fan, Soulsborne addict, caster. :)

I found one single box! That’s all I needed. Today’s good karma paid off 🥹

If a DM wants to draw attention to a room, I think that's fine and dandy, but when he does it exclusively after the player chose to ignore the room, while not a horrendous way to DM, that ultimately has some consequences I feel should be avoided. For one, you've gone against player agency which can be very annoying. Second, you're teaching your players that whenever they accidentally avoid something important, you will point it out to them. You're taking the responsibility of them noticing important things and putting it on yourself, which will cause them to stop trying to look for important things altogether. Part of what makes exploration fun is the chance of disappointment. There could be a great treasure, there could be nothing, or there could be something, but it's not worth getting. You lose something when you always know the valuable rewards of exploring. I've had a giant rant in me for a long time about how modern gaming in both tabletops and video games has somehow filled itself with people who struggle whenever given too much freedom, as well as those that can't handle the concept of consequences, which in turn has lead to devs, dm, etc, creating games with less actual freedom and/or consequences. Essentially, Fallout 4 vs Fallout New Vegas. Almost, if not all gaming should have at least SOME direction, but I feel like my line for where things get invasive is way lower than the average modern gamer. Admittedly, my experience in modern gaming is severely limited (hence me using Fallout 4 as an example), so maybe my anecdotal perspective isn't the best out there.


showing your 'ugliest' side to Sanji and him just looking at you in awe like you're the most gorgeous thing he's ever seen, no wonder Pudding had a complete meltdown 😭



POV: You started your game on Friday the 13th and the game had a special starter set. Who you rolling with?

i am BEGGING people to separate “this game sucks” with “i do not like this game” it’s actually so much of what’s wrong with the internet

All Soulsborne games have dogshit accessibility options and should have basic functions like a pause button and a difficulty selector to allow for those with less function to experience the art that they are. And before you come at me, I have beaten every single one solo.

bloodborne is a source material that sledgehammers you in the face with the themes of visceral womanhood. menses as a central theme. only for ppl to see bborne as the game where you hunt down long beasts.
