okay I'm playing some more Doki Doki Literature Club and I have a bad feeling about where this is going, particularly with this choice the game wants me to make right now

it's weird because I'm usually not that squeamish (although I'm not a fan of scary stuff in general)

not sure if it's just because I've been sick the last few days and I just feel like crap or what

I actually completely expected that outcome and it still freaked me out

I'm also not great with suicide imagery for various personal reasons so that probably contributed to it too

After I saw people talking about DDLC a while ago I ended up looking up what it was and kinda ruined the whole thing, so Ill probably never play it. Sounds neat though.

Thats totally understandable and exactly why it has said content warnings. I do hope you finish it though; the rabbit hole just keeps going deeper. Still, dont do anything unsafe.

I mean I don't think I'll do any physical or mental harm to myself

after I stepped away from it I felt totally fine again not long after, and I've even played a little more since then

man everything falls apart super quickly without Sayori around huh

Beat Tokyo Xanadu eX+. Really great game, enjoyed it a lot. I'll probably play NG+ and go for the Platinum which says a bit since a lot of times I'd move on because I'd feel "done" with a game. Not 100% sure what I'll play next, will have to think about it.

Well, I feel even worse today than I have the last few days, so I decided to stay in for the day. I just finished watching Your Name. It was...pretty good. I'd probably need a little bit of time to absorb it to get a better handle on my feelings here, so I'll probably talk about it some more later.

I'm nearly finished with season 5 of Frasier, and I still haven't encountered an episode I haven't seen yet, which surprised me. I thought there'd be at least one! I guess I watched more reruns of this show than I thought since I didn't start watching this show while it was airing until partway through.

I'm like that with Seinfeld. I know i've seen many episodes on TV as reruns, but I know I haven't seen every episode... or at least I don't think I have... but whenever I start watching episodes in my chronological order list, I always feel like I've seen the episodes before.

Yeah, I'm not sure I've seen every episode of Seinfeld either since I've never tried to watch the show in order, but I've watched tons of reruns. Same with Friends, although I'd feel more confident saying that one if I had to guess which one I'd seen every episode of since I was on that show from close to the beginning.

I think I'll pass on the Uncharted Platinum. I'm not interested in playing on Crushing. It's not fun.

Yeah, playing on the hardest difficulties has never been a thing I like to do.

Uncharted is pretty generous with its trophies in that regard though because if you beat the game on Crushing, it gives you the trophies for beating the game on every lower difficulty at the same time, too, so you don't have to beat the game 4 or 5 different times to get all the trophies.

I know KH gives you all the trophies on PS4. While on PS3 i think you had to do mutiple playthroughs.

Iirc MGS4 makes you do 8 playthroughs for the platinum? Something dumb like that. I was glad that MGS3 didn't make you play on any particular difficulty (which is why I finished that one but not 2's)

I don't think I've even played MGS4 since they added trophies to it. I'm long overdue for a full series replay there.

Really the whole trophy list kinda seems like a huge pain. I usually go for as many trophies as I can as long as it doesn't make me go too far out of my way, but MGS4's were just making me have less fun I think. Maybe I'll ignore them when I finally get back to playing it.

Looking at the MGS4 trophy list, yeah, there's no way I'd do all those.

Great trophy names though.

MGS games are really replayable though.

Skipping cutscenes and knowing how to do everything makes an individual run only 3-5 hours, give or take skill level.

It's a different experience.

I would usually do a "full" replay first but then when tackling other difficulties it's fun to just run through the gameplay. It just takes too long otherwise!

I remember playing kingdom hearts II and being amazed at how the average world only takes 30 minutes or less

Yeah, but if I'm playing MGS or Kingdom Hearts, I'm not just in it for the gameplay, no matter how much I love it.

and as I said I derive no pleasure from playing at higher difficulties

I feel like if you're playing a game 8 times in a row you'd probably be okay skipping cutscenes at least one of those times...

In my case, if I beat it and then immediately do a second playthrough to clean up, then yeah I'll skip cutscenes. If I'm coming back to the game after a while, then I prefer watching everything.

I like doing an immediate second playthrough of a story-driven game just to catch all the foreshadowing I missed the first time through, so I'm definitely not skipping them that time either.

Okay, I decided to re-watch Your Name because I figured it was the type of thing that would benefit from a second viewing considering the plot twist in the middle. Yeah, I think I view it more favorably now. The two main characters are really good and play off of each other really well. The rest of the cast is kinda whatever except for Okudera. A Silent Voice is better, but Your Name is good, too.

I guess I'll include Mitsuha in the rankings now that I've cemented my feelings about it.

Overall I'd say Your Name is a pretty good movie, but I did like the first half noticeably more than it's second half. I think the movie does a really good job establishing it's characters and the central idea, and then also showing them begin to change as a result of the whole body-switching thing. But then when--from my perspective--they should have doubled down on that, they instead decide to veer off into this kind of weird sci-fi(?) plot that never felt like it established a proper foothold in the movie, if that makes sense. And like I cared about the characters, but not in such a manner that was going to be invested in a plotline like that by default, and so it all it really felt like was that the whole thing gave me whiplash.

Wouldn't completely disagree. Them raising the stakes in the second half gives it more impact and it was fairly effective, but if they'd raised the stakes while focusing more on the sort of stuff the first half gave us it would've been even better.

I feel like they could've dedicated more time to that stuff if it were just a show instead of a movie. You can't really just have a slice of life movie like that unless it's attached to a show already.

actually I guess it could've just been a straight up rom-com or something and you could still have essentially the same ending but eh I think that wouldn't have been as good
