just here to shout into a wholesome void about things I like and have no creative talent for 🎵

And lastly (no promise), "a C on hard" was maybe being a bit harsh. I'm not *terrible* at these. I can see FCing unbeatable on Loner, that B was 3rd try.

Also, absolutely the superior way of using this saying

I couldn't get it on release but I finished episode 3 last night and I am so in love with UNBEATABLE, ready for it to fuck me up at the end. Episode 2 ending sequence esp has led me to dub this "FLCL: The Rhythm Game"

I can also see why Quaver was the first to be turned into a marketable plushie

Not read the story yet--doing stages first--but I *really* hope Tippi's vibe matches her outfit, it's so cute. 45 pulls to get her (got some French guy too I guess...) and already E2, Skyranger is just so fun to use.

Anyway, until the Switch 2 upgrades (Monolith, PLEASE)... [7/7]

It also has Mia. Mia is the best. [6/7]

Then there's the "there's an election for the alien races' representative but the candidate is useless so they want us to help them rig it" quest which ends up with us giving them an "agrees to everything" serum and results in this speech. (we'd already got them insatiably addicted to pizza) [5/7]

Played a few more hours in post-game to tie up some loose ends, but I'm both happy and sad to say that's Xenoblade X DE completed. All the affinity quests and heart to hearts, all bar 3 other quests done (checked the segments), Ares 90.

680+ screenshots (only ~540 got in my discord thread) [1/7]

Recent events in the news remind me of the wonderful easter egg in this with the wife-appears-disappears connection.

Curse my lack of hand-eye coordination making a C rank on hard my best effort at rhythm games. Absurdly stylish, I had to show friends the *startup logo*.

Been actually playing something new (In Stars and Time)! Very much a game not-for-spoiling, both story and the funny dialogue. tldr; I love all of them.

Getting a chocolate bar out of the cupboard during a heatwave.

Ok, will refrain from spamming about every bit of nostalgia (I can't help it....)

There was a reason I think my Xenoblade threads in friend group's discord were a good idea. They don't know the chaos.

For context, I'm currently doing pre-ch12 content.

This one is from ch3, for comparison.

More games need affinity charts!
I LOVE interacting with all the NPCs in XCX and getting all the tiny drips of world building, lore, or just funny anecdotes.

Watched some anime for the first time in a while ✨

Then saw my AniList activity graph and didn't realise it was such a dramatic drop. Compare with the same time from 2 years ago.

I'll post upbeat things here one day I'm sure...

[XCX:DE wait posting]

The "he's not in this one" took me a moment to get. I love this series.

(context can quickly be spoilery if you look into it, but let's just say gods are a big part of the theme)

Oh good, "Ave Maria as Performed by Kricketune" made into my YT Music recap.

As it should.

bonus post:
the most intense was ch31. The concert reaction to "The Flawless Human" into "Elysian Realm" says it all

Seeing that thread about prettiest games, I think a more specific one could be "most impressive glow up for a sequel".

The lighting changes and facial expressions In Xenoblade 3 were such a step up from 2. So many times I went "wow, this game is *pretty*"

Ep14 has been good, but oh my goodness you're being mean HG
