Rimworld? You Mean Grindr?

I think the real beauty of Slay The Princess is that because you make each decision you dictate how the game feels. you get to decide how you want to play and the story reacts accordingly. If you want a fight then fight. If you want something gentle then be gentle. You want something heart wrenching you can play into that too. The story matches your mood and thus is the perfect fit to whatever you feel like playing in the moment. I don't know how well this whole thought is coming across but I just freaking love this game so so much and I am so happy I found it and get to play it again and again and again.

I don't always love saying shit like "if you hate this character then you must hate women" but from my brief exposure to Fire Emblem fandom bullshit a lot of people who hate Edelgard happen to hate women.

I can’t believe that line in heroes where Shamir pointed out there’s gay marriage in dagda wasn’t just her hitting on Catherine it was a teaser for the next game

every time i think about overwatch's orientalism i go a lil more insane. 5 japanese characters all of which are tied to a very stereotypical mythologized version of japan. they're some of the few explicitly magical characters. all of them are part of clans and lineages and shit. every map that takes place in japan is an orientalist fairy land with idyllic old looking villages with shrines and gates and cobblestone and zero utility poles in sight. this game is so incredibly racist

what's interesting to me is that no other asian characters get this treatment. mei is a climate scientist or something. diva is a gamer. lifeweaver and symmetra are scientist. something about japan specifically makes the overwatch devs get a boner for the image of a permanently ancient magical other, japanese characters are simply not allowed to be contemporary
