Also voting Earthbound in this late stage and I donât even like it that much.
But I meanâŚDark Souls has that cool ghost town, and skeletons, and DooM Level, and Ceaseless Discharge, and Painted World, and getting invaded, and Seath The Scaleless. I did so much PVP of that game before it became griefer/hacker hell. I donât even like the Atorias Fight. Dang thinking about all the cool stuff in Dark Souls. What could beat the first time you see the Hydra.
God DamnâŚDark Souls is cool.

Going from This Is Bullshit to Die youâre dead, stop here, kill this thing. Just an incredible feeling. I think Dark Souls was the last time I threw a controller. I thought of that as a pride at this hard video game. Now I see it was deeply deeply shameful that I would generate that much rage at a piece of art that doesnât even morally offend me. Get the fuck over yourself you fucking nerd. If you put that much energy into self-betterment youâd be an incredible person.
So throwing that controller was important.
In trying to cut down on things I own I looked at my copy of Mother 3 and 2. Why do I own these? I donât even like these games. They sure do look nice on the shelf though.
I also put all the Souls games in a box after this recent move. Mostly because I have a tiny child. But maybe also, maybe, it is time to put away childish things. And focus on dating sims for the Sega Saturn. Time to bid on a copy of Hyper Duel Iâm sure the pandemic pushed it to over 1000 bucks now.

you are the weirdest person i know, maybe. you obviously like dark souls better, and youâve continuously told people to not vote for anything related to nintendo sooo
whatâs going on here??
love ya rudie but you confuse the heck outta me
mother 2 is not a game you play a little bit of as an adult and âgetâ, and it is not really, to me, about tone or flavor or quirkiness. it isnât even about earnestness, or funhouse mirror dragon quest tropes.
its value is almost totally in its cumulative affect. people who love earthbound are not in love with fart jokes or whatever, they are impacted by human love. a (frequently successful) process of imparting human love to an unknown stranger - this is the power of mother 2.

this is not really to diminish the experience of anyone who doesnât âgetâ it!!!
i donât know that it would even work properly anymore, especially not with the weight of expectation, with the difficulty of buy-in for adults and time-limited people.
mother 2 is powerful because all of its components speak to the same ideas, all of its potency is coiled in its structure and coffee and tea breaks and prayer. the game as vessel for a shared gaze! a moment of graceâŚ

Flippant Proclamation followed by deep introspection on actual beliefs.
Is one of the reasons I come off so weird is that I write out my thoughts as they happen? Which if you look at the post as a whole you go âthere must be as a piece.â When really only trust the last word I wrote.

oh actually yeah, that explains a lot. youâre my posting doppelganger, in the twin peaks sense, since i will rewrite or delete a post if i think it contradicts itself.
i hope that wasnât insulting!! i have a new perspective now

I think these polls have proven to me that I am not the souls fan that everyone else is. I guess itâs kind of like being on the outside of enjoying Radiohead. I mean, I like From, but not this much
