Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Sothis, and "Those Who Slither in the Dark"

Two unrelated (sets of) characters, but they round out the last of my Fire Emblem posts... at least until I get around to finishing the Golden Deer run. And I'll probably save my screencaps from the DLC for then, too.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Rhea, Seiros, & Nemesis

I had mixed feelings about Rhea. Mostly because I didn't trust her right from the start, but she was voiced by Cherami Leigh, whom I love, so I liked her anyway. lol

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Some shots of the leaders together, plus Catherine and Flayn since they don't have a class alignment. I love Catherine, but I love Shamir more, and I'm upset she didn't get a single cutscene. XD

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Golden Deer

Although Claude was my favourite leader, he had the most boring students overall. I was the most interested in his storyline, but since I saved it for last because I knew you find out some big secrets, I got burned out and haven't finished it yet. ^^; Oops. I'll get back to it some day.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Black Eagles

My least favourite route in the game, and I really didn't care for Edelgard (great character, don't get me wrong, I just disagreed with her on a personal level). Also, I literally guessed everything about her from the very first time I heard that the leaders ruled a kingdom, an alliance, and an empire. Any time there's an Empire involved, they're always the bad guys. XD BUT that being said, I really liked a lot of the students - Petra and Linhardt rounded out my top three students (Felix was 1st), and Hubert was one of the best mages.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Blue Lions = best house

I knew immediately that Felix was going to be my favourite character, but I didn't expect to fall in love with the rest of the class so much. It's just a box of cinnamon rolls + 1 (one) spice roll (Felix), at least until the time skip and Dimitri loses his goddamn mind.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

I love the FE games, and Fates/If is still one of my fave games of all time. I really enjoyed 3H too, and although I had my complaints, overall it was fun. My favourite class was the Blue Lions, but my favourite leader was Claude, and I made the mistake of leaving his route for last, and got burnt out halfway through it, so I haven't finished it yet. In the mean time, I took a lot of pics from the other 2.5 routes, so there will be a few posts. Starting out with Byleth, who I like arguably as much as Corrin from Fates. I missed being able to customize them though.

Heyo, it’s been a minute since I’ve posted, so there’s a lot incoming!

Code Realize: Bouquet of Rainbows

I literally only played this game for like 10 minutes, Dating Sims/Visual novels aren’t usually my thing, but the men were so pretty I had to try it... maybe I’ll go back and play it some day. XD In the mean time, enjoy literally all the screenshots I took from my short playtime. lol

Posting this as screenshots because the algorithm is usually better with images than text. This is extremely personal, and not the kind of thing I would usually post here, but I'm going to need all the help I can get. I don't have much of a following here, but if even one person donates, it'll be more than I had before. If you can't donate, please share.

[AMV] Red Demon 2.0

Remade an old favourite of mine with better footage and better technical skill so I could add it to a video-editing portfolio.  Still not perfect, because I didn’t want to stray too much from the original, but I’m pretty happy with how it came out, regardless.

Ghost of Tsushima #10: Miscellany

Aaaand now for the traditional wrap up post of photos that didn’t fit in the other posts.  Several of these could be considered spoilers so uh, view at your own risk?  I’ll tag it for spoilers just in case.

Ugh.  I have so much more to say about this game.  I love it so much.

Ghost of Tsushima #9: Scenery (general)

EVEN MORE shots of the stunning beauty that is the world of Tsushima.  I’m going to be coming back to this game for years and, although I loved everything about it, I think the one thing that will pull me back into playing it again more than anything else will be the absolutely gorgeous graphics.  I could walk through those flower fields and red maple forests forever.

Ghost of Tsushima #8: Scenery (focused)

The fact that I have more shots than can fit into one - or even two - posts of JUST the scenery should tell you how beautiful this game is, cause in almost any other game these shots would be boring as hell.  But their use of such vibrant colors to accentuate the beautiful Japanese countryside, combined with the abilities of the photo mode to change the time of day, lighting, color filters, angle, and focal point lent this game a very unique charm that often left me just standing around as Jin and admiring the view for minutes at a time, or playing with the photo mode for half an hour to get just the right shot.

Ghost of Tsushima #7: Shrines

I have almost as many shrine photos as I have foxes, which is……… a lot.

I loved the shrine scenes.  They provided beautiful vantage points to appreciate the surrounding scenery, but also a moment of spiritual calm amidst all the destruction that was sweeping across the countryside.  Some of my favourite places in the game.

Ghost of Tsushima #6: Foxes!

As if I had needed another reason to love this game, there were FOXES that you could FOLLOW to find hidden shrines, and then they would sit while you prayed and you could PET THEM afterwards?! I'll take ten. The game was a little glitchy though, in that if they didn't have a perfect place to sit behind you and wait for you to pet them, they'd disappear, and I was personally offended that I only got to pet about half of the foxes in the game. But let me tell you, it was hard for me to limit my fox photos to only ten. XD I took so many.

Ghost of Tsushima #5: Horse (Kage)

I honestly didn’t use my horse as much as I could have, because I so enjoyed just… walking around the beautiful forests and flower fields, but I loved him nonetheless, and I worked hard to get him the beautiful white saddle he deserved. lol

Spoilers under the cut, click at own risk.

I actually physically sobbed when he died.  I cried a couple times during this game (Taka’s death, for one) but none as hard as when Jin lost his horse.  It was one of the heaviest, most emotional scenes I’ve probably ever seen in a video game, and I was devastated.

Ghost of Tsushima #4: Duels

I never got tired of the dramatic intros to the duels.  I played on an easier difficulty because I’m not used to combat styles that rely on parrying/blocking/etc, but the combat was so fluid and natural feeling, I never got bored!  I did get stressed out with a couple of the more difficult battles but they were so satisfying, it was worth every second.

And yes, I absolutely played Ghost-style every chance I got.  I would snipe a whole camp of Mongols without ever raising my sword. lol
