The urge to create Project Hail Mary fanfics where Ryland Grace just infodumps to Rocky about my hyperfixations. I want to SO BAD but I think the demographic for PHM fans who want to hear about Mario Kart Wii speed running is pretty small.

#IT'S INTERESTING I SWEAR #To be fair most of the book is him talking about my htperfixations and special interests so I can't complain #But god damn it I LOVE MARIO KART WII SPEEDRUNNING #project hail mary #andy weir #ryland grace #rocky #rocky phm #rocky project hail mary

y'all are lucky it's an emerald kick i'm on right now and not an oras one because i get weird and feral about how characters in oras are aware of the narrative they're in and react differently to it depending on which game you're playing

#pepe silvia meme dot png #listen. listen. if you're playing alpha sapphire then you're the antagonist in archie's story. #if you're playing omega ruby maxie's the antagonist in your story and he leans into the role with glee. #(also he's much friendlier than people give him credit for. he has a whole monologue in seafloor cavern about how #happy he is to see you even though he knows you're about to fuck up his plans #and archie does NOT have equivalent dialogue in alpha sapphire he just gets right into kicking your ass) #(i'm so normal about maxie you guys) #when zinnia asks if you've ever had to hold back your grief... if you answer ''no'' she LAUGHS #and says ''don't you know you're supposed to agree? and then we can share a touching moment of pain?'' #i'm also totally normal about zinnia #god #''don't you know you're supposed to agree'' fucked me up so bad and all i did was read about it on bulbapedia #there's no place like hoenn #<- resurrecting this old tag #edited to add: ALSO ''s/he's the hero. right?'' #GOD I LOVE ZINNIA #broke: zinnia did nothing wrong. woke: zinnia did everything wrong while speedrunning the five stages of grief

"Everything you went through was meaningless." [St Voyager S3 E7: 'Sacred Ground']

#Serving Jesus realness #star trek screenshots #Janeway #iconic that all the aliens are like 'damn....that's crazy....anyway-' about Janeway HEHEHE they're like snickering behind their hands #I would be too honestly if some outsider tried to speedrun my ancient spiritual rituals #Love the vibe of 'this could all be hazing' they're putting out. Also I keep seeing the face paint on the guide woman as like a mic #honestly this woman's fucking hilarious HEHEHE #Janeway: I'm dying. / Alien Guide: We all die someday :) <- lady who just told her to stick in her hand in a poison jar #AHAHAHA THEY REALLY DID HAZE HER...I love these guys they're so nahnahnahbooboo-core #also the refrain 'Everything you went through was meaningless' ..... thinking BIG thoughts about post-voyager voy crew back on earth #I really do earnestly love the gleeful contempt vibe...it just seems so right. In a funny way but also in a way that's deeply true #the feeling of trying to find answers while you universe laughs and says there are none - it's meaningless - but you're welcome to go ahead #and try. If you find God you have the feeling it would just stare at you blankly. Then laugh. #Chakotay: Captain I've been so worried about you! Have you found a solution? / Janeway: Absolutely. I'm going to walk into the death shrine #Chakotay: (internally hysterical) Oh of COURSE!!!! no of COURSE she's going to walk into the DEATH SHRINE!!!! #great imagery in this one <3 folks who love religious imagery (me) will get a kick outta this one <3 #anyway I love when star trek does hopeful eps like this...makes me tear up like. Yeah there could be a scientific explanation but that #doesn't make it MORE true or MORE real than the religious one - it's just as valid to believe in the spirits #Also those three old creeps were lovely <3 scared me and I like that! existential dread!

xianyun and nahida's banners just dropped and the 4*s are kinda-

we got ga-ming but faruzan and noelle are definitely a choice

- curse anon

you could argue noelle is from the poetry event, but faruzan… yeah that’s certainly A Four Star

although, she is supposedly a pretty good anemo support/sub dps, right? with xianyun (and xiao just around the corner) it makes sense to add her on there. since 1) nahida is a support 2) they’re likely trying to push xianyun 3) xianyun is probably a dps (no i haven’t seen her skill cards yet and i’m not going to until she releases) (lied, she’s like. a healer. so??) so that makes sense to me

in the end, i don’t mind. so long as ga ming is on the banner, we live we laugh and we love

#m1d : [chats] #blood curse anon #fellas i am so normal about this video game (<-lying out his ass) #(<- going to go insane in the library because he’s trying to do research on ga ming for a fic that he’s speedrunning before his release) #(<- guys did you know that i’m the only person correct about him ever (hasnt even watched the 4.4 trailer)) #i’m my defense i didn’t watch it because i haven’t been in a space where i can be freely insane when i watch it #ga ming…… <333333 #gosh he’s so silly #my dearest ever #GOD he has ALTERED MY BRAIN CHEMISTRY #keeping him in my pocket #i love him an abnormal amount #autistic amount *

pikmin 4 was made with so much fucking love in it.

i WANT developers to take LONGER to create their art and be paid MORE to work LESS hours and i am NOT FUCKING JOKING.

#rem rambles #im not even super deep in. just got to the second area. but the fact that its so...well done. #you can gain certain pikmin at seemingly any time. you can puzzle and problem solve at your own pace. #the fucking dandori battles. i am deeply in love. #i saw an area. saw how fucking gorgeous it was. and cried. i had a whole ass moment. #this is what gaming should be. pokemon company take NOTES #the QOL changes. being able to set your pikmin for the field AND for caves. resetting your pikmin POST caves. moving your base to shorten #travel time. oh my GOD the routes for speedrunning this bitch will be inSANE

I love the insanely different uses dedicated communities for ENTIRELY separate games can come up with for the exact same glitch.

Mario 64: I'm sure we all remember the "half A press" video. What you may not be aware of is that this particular challenge (beat mario 64 without pressing the A button) has continued to progress, as slowly as something this complicated tends to, and this week 3 of the remaining A presses were shaved off all at once leading to only 16 unique instances of the A button being pressed and released left in the entire 120 star 100% run (any% has been solved for a while now)

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: You may have seen the recent Tool-Assisted Speedrun of OoT done at Summer Games Done Quick this year, dubbed "triforce%" which uses arbitrary code execution to showcase cut beta content from the original N64 release of the game. (please watch this video it's truly insane) This run not only places cut beta content back into the run without the use of mods or hacking, it does so live and uninterrupted utilizing human input as the jumping point.

Would you believe me if I said both of these used the same quirk of the engine these games run in?

Mario 64 runners call this the HOLP: the Held Object's Last Position. Effectively, picking up an item or enemy causes it to update the position and orientation for the held object in real time as Mario moves. Mario 64 and OoT run in the same basic engine (as do many modern nintendo games! Splatoon 2 and Animal Crossing: New Horizons are the same engine!) You can use glitches to manipulate the engine to not update this until needed, allowing you to, say, spawn a bob-omb out of bounds and use the explosion to propel you.

Zelda 64 (OoT and Majora's Mask) runs in this same engine, and therefore also feature the HOLP. Until 2019 this wasn't useful info, but it was found out that with precise manipulation you can rewrite the games on the fly, leading to live patching of Ocarina of Time into an entirely different game, utilizing nothing but a very dedicated human, and a robot who presses buttons really, really fast.

In summary:

#nintendo #zelda #mario #nobody cares turbo #god i love speedrunning

[yourubersawcrit]

Would any mutual play, um, Sky: Children of the Light one day? I promise I will keep you safe [roar in the distance]. That? Oh, that is not something to worry about, heh.

#neos thoughts #For realsies. I LOVE SPEEDRUNNING THE GAME WITH MOTHS/NEWBIES! #I am a great protector! believe me chat! [giggles and laughs and grins] god I'm probably being so untrustworthy right now... #Is just that having friends makes the game funnier ;—;
