#let me play in peace

[tnsophiaonly]

A rant about genshin impact that I need to let out so badly.

I swear if someone complains about a game's representation, design, gameplay, story, and things and things when they have no experience and when the game is actually good, I'm gonna go ballistic.

Like stfu about the give more rewards, LIKE DO BETTER, so what if you lost your 50/50? WOMP WOMP SKILL ISSUE, so what if the children are older than they look? YOU'RE JUST BEING CREEPY. So what if you spent money on it? THAT'S ON YOU. So what if you're too lazy to grind? THEN DON'T AND DON'T ASK FOR REWARDS.

And if I see a comment stating, "It's just a game." THEN THIS FANDOM OF THIS GAME IS SO HORRID I WAS PERSONALLY OFFENDED, LIKE SHUT UP OH MY GOD.

EVERY SINGLE THING I SEE ARE PROBLEMS, LIKE THERE'S BARELY NO ONE WHO APPRECIATES THE BEAUTY OF THE GAME AND FOCUSES MORE ON HOW IT HAS LESS SKIN TONE REPRESENTATION, HAS "MID" DESIGNS, "LOLICON BAIT", "NOT GENEROUS", OR "WORSER THAN THIS THAT" AND MANY MORE

You all are acting like my parents smh, but at least my parents notice the good things. You all are nothing but ungrateful, and so stupid, unless you're a professional or anything, YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS TO SPEAK, MAYBE EVEN IF YOU'RE A PROFESSIONAL.

Like "Oh what's the point of the feedback then if they won't listen?" Are you the one doing the game? Are you the one who has to code, animate, pay, and all of that shit to the game? Like yeah, you can have your opinions, but don't you ever try to print that on someone's mind! Like it's an opinion for a reason?!

And I swear to God, skin tones are such a problem these days! Why are you so mad that someone is pale?! LIKE, just make your own game or have a redesign, no need to HARRASS THE PEOPLE WHO DOES IT. Like I understand the lack of representation in skin tone, but don't go saying they suck at the representation when they've done so much for it???

The developers are just doing what they're told from the higher ups!! Oh my god.

I literally needed to let this out, because TikTok is the bane of my existence. Like I swear I want to just tell these people off, but I actually have a life.

GENSHIN IMPACT IS A GOOD GAME. ALMOST THE ENTIRE OF THE FANDOM SUCKS. AND THEY NEED TO STOP BEING SO SENSITIVE AND THE TWINKIFYING IS ANNOYING.

HONKAI STAR RAIL IS A GREAT GAME AND SO IS GENSHIN, THEY HAVE DIFFERENT MECHANICS SO STOP COMPARING THE TWO WHEN GENSHIN IS HARDER TO CODE?

And I'll remind you that not everyone is like this, I've met people who actually sees the great things on genshin. I've met great and fun players. Not everyone in the fandom is horrible, but it's so embarrassing to tell people I play genshin impact because of that part of the fandom.

Like please just don't ever speak again as no one needs your opinion🧚‍♀️✨😍

how do you feel about march eridan?

Ok disclaimer before I get into it, trolls wearing dresses = great and fantastic; in fact, given that the gender differences in troll culture are so much less significant, ALL the male trolls should own some femme-ass clothes, even if it's as simple as just having a skirt version of their pants, and it's a little lame that we didn't get that.

That said, March Eridan specifically kind of annoys me because it has 0 basis in canon (aside from some shoutouts in things like ministrife sprites) but has taken over Eridan discussions so wholly that it's become widely accepted as part of his character that he's really into femme stuff when the opposite is true, and he's got some pretty major characterization tied up in the fact that he does lean so masc, and what specific type of masc he tends to present as.

So first of all, Eridan dresses up to emulate Dualscar, and this is very obvious and straightforward; if you've read the big essay I have pinned to my blog, you know that this is all a part of his basic "I have to be a big bad sea dweller or Something Bad Will Happen" suite of issues.

Thus, we can ALSO assume that the choices he made that aren't made to emulate Dualscar are reflective of his ACTUAL taste in clothing. For example, blue pants instead of purple and black - I believe that this is because Eridan likes to dress up in the blood colors of his dates; he wears a lot of blue because he's hatedating Vriska (and never quite seems to get 100% over her), and we also see this in the rings on his fingers - half of which are fuchsia, for Feferi.

So that leaves us with the glasses, shoes, and scarf. And we know why he dresses like that! It's because he's a hipster. (The scarf has an added benefit of being associated with harry potter-style wizards).

CCG: PAST YOU, PRESENT YOU, FUTURE YOU CCG: AND ABOVE ALL, UGLY SCARFNECKED DOUCHEBAG HIPSTER YOU CCG: WAIT I FORGOT, ALL OF THE YOUS ARE THAT YOU

And very specifically, a masc hipster from the era - the glasses and the ugly-ass shoes are dead giveaways. The slicked-back hair is reminiscent of that fashion style, too. He is also a douchebag. This too is important. He draws from character archetypes of the time that were generally agreed upon to be the most punchable people in existence; his introduction calls him "KIND OF A TOOL" and he consistently acts according to that. Like, I mean, just LOOK at those shades. Those are not the shades of somebody you want to be trapped in a conversation with.

A fairly accurate Eridan fashion board would look something like this:

And, like, it kind of matters that he dresses like this specific breed of pretentious male douchebag; on a meta level, that's the impression he's supposed to give the audience, and on a diegetic level, he CHOOSES to look like this because he has these kinds of interests, but is relegating them to secondary accessories.

We never hear him talk about liking hipster shit; we have to hear it from Karkat and glean it from his design. This is because, as I've talked about before, he actively distances himself from things that make him happy, things that he'd enjoy. The constant push-pull between his ACTUAL interests, and the ones he thinks he has to have because he's supposed to be a big nasty sea dweller, is a huge part of his characterization - for example, the way he keeps claiming that magic and wizards are fake and shitty, but has no less than 6 wizard statues in his respiteblock alone, and cared about his crappy wands enough to bring them onto the meteor.

So that's one of my other issues with March Eridan and the general fanon that he'd be really into femme clothes (and, by extension, fashion) - he wouldn't be forthcoming about it, even if it was true. He has a deep sense of shame and insecurity surrounding what few interests he actually has, because they feel stupid, ridiculous, and frivolous, next to the intense anxiety he has about playing the role society gave him. He's got a very strong sense of duty that makes it very difficult for him to relax and actually enjoy something. Which, you know, probably feeds into his hipster-ness - a movement often defined more by what it doesn't approve of than what it does.

Canon Eridan, when he has a choice of what to wear, overwhelmingly chooses masculine clothing with hipster connotations. And this matters, it's part of his characterization, it says something about him, the same way that it's important that Karkat dresses very simply and baggily (we all know how many insecurities Karkat has about his body) or that Sollux's bifurcation is shown in his clothes. So please please please don't misunderstand my dislike of March Eridan as me saying I don't want him in dresses; I purely dislike it because it's usually SUCH a misread of his character.

And to prove it, here's my other gripe with March Eridan stuff: all the dresses shown in the not-canon "official" artworks don't even flatter his bodytype. Why do his custom mannequins in Pesterquest have CURVES when his Pesterquest sprite doesn't?????

Please, I'm begging you, there are guides for dressing this body type, and even historical fashions that deliberately try to emulate this body type, please if you're going to dress him femme and HC that he enjoys fashion, please put him in clothes that flatter him please

I think Eridan should own some femme clothes, because on Alternia, there are very few differences between the genders, he's rich enough to afford it, and he clearly has more of an interest in fashion in general - but I think the fact that he has a clear canon preference for masculine styles is significant, and I'm really annoying, so it kind of does bothers me that this is a controversial opinion. That being said, I don't want to tell people what they Should and Should Not do, because that's lame. Who cares. He's a fictional character, let people draw him in dresses. Would be very happy if this post causes people to draw him in different styles of dresses though :pray:

#I'm not going to tag this #because also people playing around with putting Eridan in dresses is 100% harmless #and i'm not going to ruin the fun by going But The Canon Says - #i'm just really really really annoying about canon and i kind of assume people follow me for that reason #but please dont let my annoyingness hamper your fun #if you enjoy putting eridan in dresses then by all means keep doing it #peace and love and rise above

A small recap of the server's first event back in April :D

#sheltermc #minecraft #minecraft server #modded minecraft #let me tell you about my fave edit I made (this one) #I was trying to find a way to encapsulate the whole event in one vid but it wouldn't come to me #until Ryan told her bedtime story #for an editor to get a spoken summary oh it was such a gift #and then rewatching it I was like HMMM what does this remind me of?....glee recaps #and I went to look for the instrumental that would play in the BG and there it was!! another gift #the moment that made me feel like I had just won the lottery was when I realised that the word shelter han an L in it #for all of this to come together this way...it makes me feel at peace....creative peace? kkkkkkk it's that serious to me

Whoever thought it was a brilliant idea to let other players phase into your cutscenes in public areas in SWTOR--

#i have gone through this opening cutscene for the event like six times #and the last time the game was like 'oh you know what would be funny?' #game: *right near the end boots me OUT of the cutscene forcing me to start over. from the beginning.* #>:E #like don't get me wrong it CAN be funny SOMETIMES #but like at other times? just let me play in peace gd #i don't need a random pink half dressed lady interrupting me by dropping literally out of the sky #grey's silly swtor tag

i need a fic of soap bringing ghost home to his family for the holidays. his family’s always disapproved of everything; being queer, being in the military, being with ghost and it’s all over not a great time but they’re trying to pretend for the sake of the holiday. they get into it after dinner one night though and for once soap isn’t backing down, not when it’s ghost they’re attacking, when the power suddenly goes out. soap moves just in time for a shot to come through the window and he orders his family to get down

graves and what’s left of shadow company followed them to glasgow; it’s the first time they’ve been away from the 141 and they think it’ll be their best chance to take them out. johnny and simon are left behind as they become soap and ghost and soap’s childhood home becomes a battleground, his hysterical family who still think he can’t be that good of a soldier now civilians that he has to protect and get out in one piece

#its the full gambit of sisters with their partners and kids #all with respectable normal jobs and lives #then theres john still running around playing soldier and now shacking up with his commanding officer #soaps been quiet the entire time just gritting his teeth and letting them have go after go in the name of peace #ghosts been fuming the entire time but his own family trauma and not wanting to go against johnnys wishes keeps his mouth shut #and then that instant switch the second the bullet comes through the window #theyre sergeant mactavish and lieutenant ghost now and they dont give a single shit about anything butgetting out alive #‘we need to call the police!’ #‘call local pd who’re drunk off their arses and never fired their guns in their fucking lives yeah right’ #‘this isnt the time for you to play soldier’ #‘youre right. this isnt a game. its war and youre gonna shut the fuck up and let me get you outta this alive’ #ghost sneaks upstairs to get the hidden guns he brought and to get one of the kids whod been napping #soap stays to get everyone out of the way and watch out for hostiles #ghost slides him a sniper rifle and he takes out the sniper on the opposite roof and when he looks back at his family theyre #looking at him like theyve never seen him before #i just need soap whos been underestimated his entire life showing just how competent he really is #soapghost #ghostsoap #soap mactavish #soap cod #ghost cod #simon ghost riley #we’re a team. ghost team

sometimes you post about sucking at a video game on tumblr and you get the most encouraging msgs imaginable from complete strangers who are just really into whatever game u talked about and wanna see u thrive and its so wholesome. and sometimes you post about sucking at a video game on tumblr and randos who you have never talked to in your entire life will write comments on your text post from august of last year about how you're dumb as shit for struggling on this level, not realizing that i posted that text post in august of last frickin year. pardon ive actually beaten this game 3 times since then but thank you for being mean to me and calling me naive for no reason??? 😭

The brain is BRAINING today and I kinda sorta want to draw a rather sensual moment between Astarion and my TAV (I saw an image online that just made all my neurons going BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR).

I’m still not over the cuntatron 3000. Like wtf. This is one of the hardest character designs and the way he just appears, does his role slightly badly and just starts drama eventually kills me. I’m sorry but WHO is he and why will no character design ever top this. A design for a guy who didn’t even get a name. I’m befuddled. Every night I toss and turn because this guy just appeared, served cunt and then died.
