Listen to me.
Funny little yuppie
Considered very handsome and "moderate"; capacity for violence is underestimated, as such
Psychological issues, erratic behavior, at least semi-unprompted extreme emotional reactions
Has a secretary who is implied to have feelings for him
Has no interest in his female partners
Hates nearly all of his colleagues
Kills one of said colleagues
Specific murder method of beheading
Shares many of the same interests (baseball, American whiskey, working out, dining at expensive restaurants, acts of torture, etc.)
Sound familiar?
Either way, I'll let you in on a little secret: making comparisons between Patrick Bateman and Yoshitaka Mine shouldn't be about making either of them out to be Cool or Scary or Intriguing. It should be about the bit.
It should be about being able to say Mine WOULD have a routine that can only be explained by him having an excess of executive function. It should be about being able to say Mine WOULD seethe over minor (some would say imperceptible) differences in color and font choices between everyone's business cards. And it should be about being able to say Mine WOULD pop a boner at a U2 concert.

I finished A cosmology of monsters and I absolutely devoured the whole book.
It's kinda ironic how the beginning really scared me in a way no other book has ever done, when it took in fact a complete different direction to what I thought.
What scared me was that I thought we were gonna see characters slowly becoming mad and paranoid and maybe violent and we'll have trouble separating what's real and what is not.
But in the end it's not a story about monsters. The monsters are real. But the scariest monsters are the ones the characters are facing in their real lives.
It's a story about a family falling apart because of secrets, grief, depression and precarity. These are the real monsters. And in a way it's way scarier that what's scared me in the first place, because nobody can't escape real life problems (I try but hey they're still here). So my fear was replaced by sadness and the heavy weight lies and unsaid things let on a family.
I have to admit I am always found of stories about dysfunctional families and their intergenerational trauma and how intricate and hard it is to find a way out of all this. I do enjoyed that the story does not let the reader with this in the end with no sense of hope. But I guess the moral of the story, or the moral I choose to believe in is to share your emotions with your loved ones. If only I knew how to that IRL, but that's not the topic here.
Some moment were really gut-wrenching, I particularly appreciated how depression was being written.

god i am SO picky when it comes to games and its such a pain in the ass.
its not like i'm even asking that much though! I just want something 3D that emphasizes adventure and exploration with the inclusion of platforming elements! And also has a robust and in-depth character creation system with multiple playable races that DONT just look like humans with blue skin or pointy ears, a farming and combat system, the ability to romance either gender, the inclusion of pets and or mountable steeds, a flying mechanic, a leisurely pace, a low processor requirement....
