There's this weird phenomenon where the people who are really, really invested in Campaign 3 being The Best try to argue that it's the most closely bonded party. when in fact the absolute strongest material with Bells Hells thus far is them realizing with a shock that they've spent almost three months alternating between "my way or the highway" and smoothing things over to the point that they almost shatter along with Ashton and realize that they absolutely cannot go on a time-sensitive, mission-critical journey to save the world without stopping to take a team-bonding vacation.
And to be clear, this rips, but it feels as though while Campaign 1 and Campaign 2 fans might disagree on their favorite campaigns, they do like their campaigns for what they actually are and simply have different preferences with regards to what kind of story they like. This particular flavor of Campaign 3 fans, and there's a decent number of them, only care about winning on the most kindergarten-ass "all you need is love 🥺" axis (also, shades of the bean-counting/points approach to media analysis) but as a result they put forward an idea of the campaign that's simply not the reality and it's like, do you like Campaign 3? Or do you like the fanfiction version of it you wrote in your head based on the first 10 episodes and into which you have slowly dissolved your brain? There's plenty of valid reasons to enjoy or even prefer the campaign, but it's easily the most dysfunctional party and that's fine!

new rgg fans will never know what they missed back in ye olden days of the fandom (like, 2019), doubly so now that scott strichart's deleted his twitter and jon riesenbach's privated. twitter was so fucking fun and then whatever-the-hell at sega of america happened and caused a fucking snowball effect and now we have shitass localization and resulting discourse that makes every release nigh unbearable, misinformation, confusion, people complaining about "bad writing/mischaracterization" not realizing it's because of the shitass english loc, i'm sitting here like jesus christ these loc bitches massacred saejima's character voice, people will never see him as he was intended, as original yakuza 5 localization Correctly painted him, and now they're coming for kiryu. god help us. we used to be a proper fandom. before everyone was subjected to the remastered localizations and shaky eng characterization. no one had even played yakuza 3-5, people still called morning glory "sunshine" orphanage, kiryu was our only protagonist and people still called him "boring", it was beautiful...
anyway gaiden uses affective instead of effective because the current localization team is full of careless dumbasses who don't give a fuck about ensuring they're using correct english grammar and this is not an isolated incident
Tumblr media
#ada speaks#ive been playing through the series again from 0-5 and. yeesh#it goes from LIFE IS GOOD. LOC IS GOOD. to. oh.#yakuza 5's original localization is near perfect and they couldve made it better but instead#they opted for the cost cutting approach and decided NOT to retranslate and instead#just fucking. re-localized the localization and SO much is wrong. so much.#im playing simultaneously with a friend (myself on ps3 them on pc) and seeing the differences#and it happens in y3r and y4r too where#the original line is localized > the remastered line takes it and runs with it bc they have no original translation context#ie. in 3 rikiya says he likes 'wild' dancers. (re: strip club) it gets localized to be him liking 'aggressive' dancers.#in 3 remastered he says he likes AGGRESSIVE DOMINEERING WOMEN and that gets his Gears Turning#or. in 5 shinada says that uno is 'a little sad up top' re: his hair. and 5 remastered he says 'kinda mopey'#because they misunderstood the original english loc and so. completely fucked up the line to mean something else entirely#its like broken telephone#the same is SOMEHOW also happening in 8... i dont know HOW but somehow it fucking is#meanwhile im revisiting zero and going OH YEAH GOOD CHOICE. THAT MAKES SENSE. GREAT WRITING. WOW THAT'S AN A+ INTERPRETATION OF THAT LINE.#i miss the old loc team so bad. bring me back.#its mostly frustrating because i can see the shitass eng writing and still enjoy the game beneath it (unless it's not voiced.) but#i feel so bad for everyone flying blind and forced to take the loc at face value#its been like this since lost judgment but the main story was Fine (if a bit rushed) because. scott was still doing his thing#the substories in lost judgment also felt like they were of the same calibre (shit.) as remastered and. idk.#it seems like its been a shitshow at SoA behind the scenes for Years#and it shows.

absolutely insane take from the priest this past sunday but apparently he doesn't consider marriages only carried out at the courthouse and not through the church as real marriages so if you got married and didnt get a specifically catholic marriage then having sex is still a sin. absolutely baffling take along with the rest of the purity culture bs he was spouting

Concept that won't leave me alone;
If Grimora had the OLD_DATA at the start of the game, I reckon she'd go for a dungeon crawler. Imagine, you wake up in darkness and in the distance sits a candleabra and some decrepit tombstones. An ominous voice speaks from behind them, narrating your journey and giving cryptic hints, slowly becoming less encouraging and more frigid.
The crypt is divided by checked tiles and the candle will only reveal ones in your nearest vicinity. For every step you take, ghosts and ghouls in the darkness will move- hostile or otherwise- and will engage if you move onto the same tile. For every life lost, a candle is extinguished, and your vision impaired as a consequence.
It's essentially a reimagining of her segment in Act 2 and the board she has in the finale, just given a more 3D spin compared to Leshy and P03's tabletop gameplay. Once you actually get to her, you see her chessboard and the pieces she's been controlling to battle you. Now that you've bested her ghouls, she wants to add you to her collection-
oh shit how cool would it be if you're roaming around and you find a ghoul with the name from your last run :0c maybe instead of having a death card, they offer you one of the cards from your old deck? Or maybe you'd have to fight them, and if successful they give a useful buff or item?
Her quill could be quite lethal, in a sense that if any of your cards perish in battle, she'll use it against you- she may even use your past deaths as randomised cards with varying power discrepancies. In place of Leshy borrowing the moon, she could summon the Bone Lord as the third phase gimmick. Any 'bleedable' cards on the table will be devoured instantly on his turn, satiating him for the following turn and giving the player a handful of bones... idk smthn like that
This shits so clear in my minds eye, but illustrating it has been a pain. Now that it's out in written form, maybe I can focus on the other concept gnawing on my corpse?

Okay so I might be reaching(or going crazy lol) but I was rewatching one of the first trailers for Elden Ring and the narrators voice sounds SUSPICIOUSLY SIMILAR to the last voice in the dlc, and i just need everyones elses opinion on this 😂

i would like to iron him out as a patch on my denim jacket and then slowly peel him off when i’m bored in meetings and lectures and then i keep him tucked inside the pockets of my jacket when he falls off from my peeling . tenderly

I do hope that Olivia won't go to the Eras Tour at all. Despite the general refusal by a lot of Swifties to acknowledge that something went downhill between Olivia and Taylor a long time ago it's crystal clear at this point that they're not on good terms anymore and going to the tour would probably be a move to keep that unhinged cult-like fanbase away from herself. It would be understandable on some extent but I'm SO tired of Swifties' entitlement with this idea that Olivia owes everything to Taylor+them and I hope that she'll keep refusing to bend to their ever growing pressure the same way she has done so far.

on the one hand I think quarreling about Dimension 20 vs. CR fandoms is kind of dumb because there really is a significant amount of overlap and the casts collaborate constantly and the people who are acrimonious are ultimately a tiny group of people with an inflated sense of importance. However I actually think that, while CR has always had extremely parasocial fans, D20 specifically has a crew of deeply parasocial fans who also seem to think that Brennan personally invented leftism whereas CR's parasocial fans are just, as I've said, the actual play equivalent of Gaylors.

thinking about the similarities and differences between arya bran and sansa in clash wrt imprisonment, castles falling, and escapes
bran is acting lord of winterfell when theon and his ironborn show up and take over. bran does what he can to protect his people by yielding, but the situation spirals out of control: winterfell's men are killed, women and children are abused, the castle is burned by ramsay, and bran must leave to face the great unknown with his companions.
arya is a prisoner of war and slave within the walls of harrenhal after being captured by the lannisters. when tywin leaves the castle is vulnerable and soon falls to one of robb's alleged allies: roose bolton. the violence spikes again to a horrifying degree and arya is forced to witness it. realizing she needs to get out arya makes a break for it and flees harrenhal with her friends.
sansa is a hostage in king's landing and faces violence from both in and, potentially, out of the castle should it fall, but it never does. she hears about the horrors but never sees them. the lannisters win and stannis retreats in defeat. sansa remains a prisoner within the red keep. unlike her younger siblings she does not strike out into the world.
