#coop experience

[the-curious-cat24]

someone joins my world and ask for a photo of monsieur Neuvillette, and I let them, they told me to stand and make a pose in the desert. It made me laugh every time we teleport, Monsieur keeps saying about assassination attempt! XD

#genshin impact #traveler #paimon #Neuvillette #Charlotte #coop experience #its fun someone join in and do unexpected things #they use charlotte as the photographer how fitting

warning! i may start getting the winter crazies on top of my usual crazies bc when i cannot go to the gym and exhaust my mania physically (and also just Get Out of this House) due to unwalkable weather i start turning from a docile aquarium ray enjoying its food puzzle ball in spite of all the human hands stroking and poking at it, into a tiger without a watermelon full of hamburger to roll around its "the Bad kind of zoo" concrete cube enclosure where it is getting drugged and/or tazed regularly

#sporadic warbling #i try to tune out the dysphoria aspect of losing muscle mass bc thats not a healthy part to fixate on #but i do in fact need Physical Activity to be Mentally Healthy so when i'm cooped up with nothing heavy to lift i get irritable #like as in the physiological state of irritability like no getting around that fact i need those endorphins badly lmao #having this brain bug while also being disabled sure is An Experience #animal abuse mention #i mean it is a metaphor for what is not animal abuse but i sure get made to feel like one sometimes #i am very thankful people i've met online are kind i owe everything to those seemingly ephemeral social bonds

if the genius society rewards depth then the intelligentsia guild (or maybe just dr ratio) strives for breadth

the genius society seems to be a lot more picky about its members, choosing only those who actually revolutionize their field instead of just people who are at the top

whereas dr ratio's whole thing is about increasing accessibility of knowledge to all life in the universe as long as they want to learn

i don't know enough yet about the intelligentsia guild to tell whether this is an opinion shared by the entire organization or if it's just dr ratio

but dr ratio has more or less completely diverged from the specific path down erudition that the genius society treads, and is going alongside the intelligentsia guild to make another

or in other words nous is a minmaxer with a glass cannon build and dr ratio is a generalist who levels up everything equally

#hsr #dr ratio #or is it dr. ratio #same thing #like if you compare it to say stardew valley #nous would be using the starfruit wine strat #like they would be in late game stardew keeping track of the starfruit harvests ancient fruit harvests keg cycles cask schedules all of that #and they would constantly be downing triple shot espresso #and doing everything possible for the goal of more profit (ok maybe that's an ipc thing) #nous would absolutely try to speedrun perfection #and on the other hand dr ratio would be like the players with all the mods #or he would play in coop #but he would probably know how to get money fastest and choose to not do that anyways #spend time fishing and raising animals instead #and then install all the mods to experience more of the game #to put it in bird terms the genius society is like a falcon and the intelligentsia guild is like a sparrow

OHOHOH AND ANOTHER FALL AKI THOUGHT I'VE BEEN STUCK ON...

working w/ aki at a pumpkin patch. like I work at one as my seasonal job and it's LITERALLY THE BEST and I can't stop thinking abt if aki would work there w/ me (he would. the second I'd tell him abt me working there he'd ask for my boss' number)

like I've been there so long so at first he'd just follow and shadow everything until he gets the hint of what to do.

then he'd always be helping me w/ tasks like restocking pumpkins and he let's me pick out all the pretty ones then I'd hand em off to him and he'd fill the wagon, him helping me go around to restock the games but then we'd stop along the way and play a couple of the games together if there aren't any customers... and oh man the best part would be seeing aki interact with all the animals.

whenever I'd clean the pens he'd just be right at my side and help with the gate, feeding and watering them too and then he'd just be watching in awe as my animal whisperer ass just stops every 6 seconds to give the animals scratches. I'd show him all of my goats (esp. bcs they're my favorite animal) and he'd just absorb every mindless goat facts I share w/ him, I'd show him how to catch all the animals and where they like to be scratched the best... OHHH AND AKI HOLDING A BABY GOAT FOR THE FIRST TIME. poor pookie would be so nervous but then by the 3rd or 4th goat he'd have gotten all comfy with it and then next thing you know everytime I then around aki would just be there cuddling with a goat.

aki going to work with me thoughts just keep me going ouuuuu

aaahhhh that sounds so cute and lovely... 🥺

I was thinking recently about going to a pumpkin patch with aki... wearing warm clothes and taking pictures together under the autumn trees... or carving pumpkins together... just enjoying the fall weather... this is my favorite time of the year and I'd love to enjoy it with him.

aki with small animals is just so cute in general honestly like he's such a gentle and calm presence, I feel like he's scared of animals sometimes but they always get drawn to him.... hahaha

I relate to you so much... I always imagine if I'm doing something that aki is doing it with me, it makes me feel more excited and gives me more confidence... I'm sure aki would love to be beside you... 💞

#that sounds like such a fun job #I'd love to work outside right now... being cooped up inside all day I can't enjoy the beautiful weather #and then it always rains only on my days off oop LOL #are you also the anon that sent the ask about the balloon fiesta? #I'm glad to hear your thoughts #this kind of experience with aki makes me feel all warm inside hehe #ask mags

[welcometoteyvat]

co-op is crazy bc in the same co op session you can immediately click with someone and then find out the other rando who joined might be a racist

#i let everyone into my place unless i didn't click fast enough so ... #the experiences have been a) met one (1) whale who like has c3 or above of multiple characters #limited characters** forgot to specify lol #b) met multiple kids who are Way Younger than i expected.... yikes pls go touch grass dont play the gacha #c) met people who i like really vibe with and talk to semi regularly #d) this fuckass dickwad #tfw you pretend you're a race you're not to two poc over co op #there are cool people over co op though. most of the time <3 #most people just come and get mats too so its like whatever. happy 2 help your farming sessions though #there are also people who just stand there and wait for me to do something like 😭 i dont got the time either you talk to me rn or you #start doing things instead of just standing there. if neither of these happen im kicking you srry #there was one person wayyyy back who led me all the way to chinju forest and then played ayaka's theme to me though it was soooo cute #shoutout to anyone who bothers to learn genshin songs on the lyre and then play them yall are real ones #also did not know that so many cis males played genshin until they came to my world lol (and i met them irl but thats another thing) #problem is that some of them are like 14 and say gan.yu is their waifu ???? 😭😭😭 like bro idk how to react to that 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 #ok this is getting a little too tmi but whatever #maybe ill delete it but conclusion coop is Wild

[artemissoteira]

the problem with trying to convince myself to let go of work tasks and have other people do them is that other people are bad at things

#this one isn't entirely fair ofc our undergrad coop is bad at things so this was an exercise in not taking a learning experience from him #but My God #spending an entire half hour meeting watching my beloved coworker direct him through a task that would have taken me five minutes #we are taking deep breaths. we are this is fine-ing through it #im gonna go take a walk lmao

I have so many questions regarding your dieties post. How does a god say no to you? What does that look like, how does it happen? Is it a dream, a vision, a meditation? I'm obviously having a hard time conceptualizing humans being in contact with gods. How did you know you were bound to the goat footed God? (And also do you mean the devil?). And how did Hestia and Apollo come to you? How did you know it was them? Is it like talking to ghosts?

Thank you for your time. I'm just very confused lol

Hi :) Lots of valid questions here. I will say that a lot of my communication and contact came after prolonged periods of heavy investment/practice into divination and psychism. These are learned skills that anyone can pick up and practice.

This post tries to explain how I experience psychism: How I Sense And Perceive Spirits: The Browser Analogy

To me personally and specifically, here is what happened:

When working with the Hekate figurine, it was about the vibes. She never "spoke" to me on any level. I just got the vibe that she wasn't super comfortable with me. Like you know when you walk into a room and you see someone and you can just tell they don't want you to be there?

I mean yeah, we pick that up through body language and stuff. But for me, that information is imparted to me through emotional feeling. Physical feelings within my body connected to emotions.

When I walk into a room and somebody doesn't want me there, my reaction isn't, "oh, he shifted his left foot 1cm to the left and glanced down." In fact, I might not really register these behaviors in any analyzed way. Instead, I just get a weird cold sense in my tummy and I feel better when I move away.

That is what I mean by the vibes. I just felt it, in a physical emotional way. She didn't particularly care to be around me.

Odin was a very different story. So, the Goat-Footed God is a figure shrouded in mystery. In Soft Polytheism style, I've often wondered if he's actually a named god of lore. Like maybe he's actually Cernunnos, or Pan, or -- Odin!

My god does have many similarities to Odin, and one day I got deep into this rabbit hole like hey, maybe he REALLY IS Odin, I should explore this more!!

That night, I dreamed. I try to remember my dreams as a normal course of action. I dreamed that Odin and some other Nordic gods (I didn't talk to any of them) came up to me while I was doing something unrelated on a space ship.

Odin smiled at me and shook his head in a sort of friendly way, but also in a closed-off way. The sort of smile you give to lone person standing with a sign at an airport who gets really excited when you walk through the door: "Sorry, it's not me you're waiting for - I hope I didn't confuse you."

Early this year (several months ago, for you people in the future) our house was under renovation that lasted almost three months. Well, this causes conflict in the home. There were constant arguments between my partner and his father (the three of us live together).

I was pretty much up-in-arms about the situation as my partner was under immense stress. At that time, I saw someone reblog a post about Hestia. It had that feeling for me. Hestia, hearth, bread-baking - it stuck in my mind like a little thorn.

I see a hundred posts about gods a day I'm sure, and none of them ever make me really curious about the god. People reblog all day long about Artemis and Apollo and while I enjoy the content and learning, I never feel that pinprick: ah, Artemis, moon and archery, I can't get her out of my mind-

But I felt that way about Hestia. Now I'm not a proper pagan - I don't research gods or do reconstructed/historical practices or anything like that. So why Hestia would come to me was beyond me.

Then I felt the nudge, you know. I might be wrong about the exact specifics - this was a brief encounter almost a year ago - but the nudge is like this:

Have you ever had a thought you don't want to think about, and your mind kind of flexes like a fist squeezing closed, and the thought is blotted out? And if you're quick enough and good enough at battling your own thoughts, that flex can come before the thought ever fully flourishes, like just the hint comes - and the emotions start seeping through for a fraction of a second - and your mind yanks its own reins. And the thought is closed off (until it comes again, as it always will).

So I feel a nudge, that nudge of a thought coming through. And I watch my own mind a lot, I like to know what it's up to. I feel the nudge and my mind starts to say no, and the bit of emotion seeps through, and I think - ah. This is a goddess trying to contact me.

How did I know it was a goddess? When you see someone in a dream that looks nothing like your friend, doing something your friend would never do, how do you know it's your friend? "I just knew it was John, it was strange."

I knew it was a goddess in the same way. I don't know how I knew. I just did.

Then, I remembered Hestia sticking in my mind like dry dough to a pan. I was very pleased with myself that I put it together immediately. I lit a candle for her and she taught me some things, and for a while I made bread in her honor.

I know now I'm bound to the Goat-Footed God after about a decade of experience, input from very helpful friends, and readings from a couple extremely talented practitioners (@thespellweavingspirit is one of them, and sometimes does sell readings). The entire tale is too long and personal to recount (yes, sometimes I do privacy!)

I met Apollo while I was under the influence of entheogens and lying in the dirt. The Eucalyptus trees were lovely and fluttering. The sun was bright, and as I became one with the world, the great star shone through my whole body, and I saw its indweller. I see why people like him. It was a magnificent experience.

man ppl are gaslighting themselves into thinking that jjk arena fighter game isn't going to be like the others. also, bandai namco ain't shit for releasing it a week after tekken 8 lmao

#like you just have to really love jjk because you're asking me to spend 60$ on this afterthought arena fighter when TEKKEN 8 is out??? #also February is really killing that game bc p3r relink and rebirth too? lol lmao #coop is probably the only interesting thing with it tbh because playing with friends or family always enhances an experience #but yeah someone would have to gift me it

Yeah sometimes Genshin co-op is awkward but sometimes you run into a 14 year old who wants to learn french and it fuels the rest of your day.

#teens playing the game are very hit or miss but i had a fun conversation with this one #helping them with slang since google translate doesn't quite get it when you ask for slang and just translates literally #honestly so far the majority of my coop experiences have been really nice #from just polite visitors to really fun ones #i like it a lot i like having strangers over #someone else just earlier sent me a friend request because they needed help with a fighting quest #and i was also all over that #i like helping #the other day someone visited my world asking to fight the wenut together #neither of us had ever fought it #but fuck it we ball #and we got it #i have so much fun with this game #genshin

[damianito]

I finally started playing GI and have reference for all the characters you draw and I can appreciate it all even more now!!

Once you come in, you cant get out

#you ask i answer #In all honest Genshin is a nice game & you can get some cool coop experiences #but like any game there are some fuckers who ruin the fun yk #but so far it is a nice game #Even if someone else is rude to you on the game just know it is a game #you are allowed & suppose to have fun so do whatever you want #go have fun

Kinda want to start a new file in Elden Ring but my first one was such a special experience that I also kinda don't want to remember it any other way than that •́⁠ ⁠ ⁠‿⁠ ⁠,⁠•̀

#Starting it while sick with covid right after finally landing a job after two years and having my gourd blown #The way that playing it with my childhood friend coop most of the way was how we reconnected #How invested I ended up being in my beautiful boy girl and how his fucked up gender was accidentally thematically perfect #The story that evolved with her and my friend's character #UGH genuinely one of the most meaningful gaming experiences I've ever had

[akkivee]

i like how in death respect, jakurai called samatoki a ‘single cell organism,’ which ichiro later uses himself to insult/not insult samatoki and in war war war, jiro calls samatoki ‘ahotoki’ which ichiro calls samatoki much further down the line lmao

#this is vee speaking #he do be vibing with those insults to samatoki in song form LOL #i’m CERTAIN sasara has called samatoki ‘ahotoki’ in ichi’s face lol this is me wishing i could make this another ‘adults ichi admires’ post #but ichiro admires individuality which jiro has plenty of when not trying to emulate ichiro so ye 👍 #i miss crying over ichiro lol so like on that vein of individualism it hurts me sooooo much that he knows he doesn’t have that sense himself #and you know that’s because he’s crafted himself to be whatever his bros need and nothing else 😭😭😭 #the way he was about to panic at the the thought of his brothers leaving the coop eventually #just means he really doesn’t know what to do/who he is without the grind and i HATE it he grew up too fast and not in anyway for himself 😭😭😭 #i really hope he goes his rhyme anima route and takes up travelling or something 😭😭😭 #(and not to make this ichikuu lol but sheltered temple boy kuukou who’s living wild and free to experience as much as possible #(should travel with ichiro lol ichiro can find himself and kuukou can grow as a person pls—)
