#i can't remember her name bc i haven't played there in months but the lady from paddock island i think

[ghoooooooooooooooost]

hi reading log #4

Cell of Empireo [up to the end of chapter 6 (arrival point s)]

GOOD LORD. this game has made me make so many noises outloud

gameplay wise its kinda interesting that they opt to have no music in a lot of parts n i feel like i'd get super lost if i was playing myself but i'm watching a translation so watevar the other stuff is more important

it's a 2018 game (i'm pretty sure?) but it reminds me sooooooooo much of 2012 rpg horror games n i say this positively n there's not that many eng fans either so it's like a game w an old soul to me lmao

also i NEEEED that official physical book to get restocked so bad i'm subscribed to sharktale factory's pixiv fanbox n everything now

here's some of my livetweeting

------------------ spoilers for coe up to chapter 7 start here ///

this game really got me thinking at points. i like how i was able to figure out shinano was origin b without/before karen's hint, the twist w reiji n haruki made me go Whoa (it also made me scared of the fandom bc :/ )

i bet my ass kanou has some kinda fucked up cell powers like there's no way he's dead but there's also no way he just faked his death istg i saw him get shot in the head. + BLOOD LOSS.

i think shinano might be my fav rn my normal dog boy

/// spoilers for coe up to chapter 7 end here ------------------------

Boogiepop [book 2, ch2]

once again slowly chipping away at boogiepop

i drew comparisons to the phantom anime again; the situation with the flowers in the novel sounds very similar to the situation with the spiders in the anime at least on the surface. maybe it won't have the same outcome for atsukai but tbh i feel like he's gonna die?

also there's a guy named spooky electric. huh

Umineko

i haven't actually played since my last session but seeing certain vague spoilers makes me wonder wtf is gonna go down in this game like what do you mean the "your mom" thing is real. n battler tells beatrice to kys in some translations??? i need to get to the point where this lady finally shows her face already

Other things

during steam sales months ago i got this one vn on an impulse n i can't remember if i ever mentioned it here n i kinda gave up at some point

i didn't wanna use the full cover image bc!@#@$%

i wish i could find a game like this except w better art + writing n a protag who is just as old (n not a girl?)

n i know gay romance vns w Oldmen exist but the kind i'm looking for is so SPECIFIC n i haven't found it yet put a guy who looks like fgo james moriarty or schwartz alchstars in there. gimme dateable kaburagi kotetsu or like. that oden guy from the pillow boys. u feel me

#book eating event #includes: coe - boogiepop (vs imaginator) - umineko - other #i went n edited the prev logs to have that 'includes' tag just bc i figured it'd be nice #edit WHOOPS i meant ch6 not 7
