I am causing pain for my friend by forcing them to witness my Heaven Burns Red account…
Specifically the way I have not levelled the optimal characters at all.
And have meta units left in the dust.
And just keep having Auto do all the gameplay for me.
I mean, I just want to read the story!
Speaking of story- Man Chapter 2 emotionally destroyed me…
I was not prepared for that. I should have known what to expect from the writer of Angel Beats though.
My mum came home today with two chocolate advent calendars.
And it made me realise, wow, it’s really that season already…
In fact as I type this I can feel my radiator next to me heating up.
Winter is upon us.
Well, almost winter.
It’s basically winter.
I have the dentist today, normally this would not be a problem.
The catch is the person who usually takes me is occupied…
So I have to go alone.
I don’t know if I have made this clear before, but I am kind of autistic.
I have massive social anxiety.
I am probably going to struggle, incredibly incredibly incredibly hard when it comes to arranging things on my own.
Someone sent me a link for an edited version of ReZero that is done entirely from the perspective of the canon timeline for other characters.
And yeah, it does make Subaru kind of incredible with how he just pulls stuff out of nowhere to save the day.
I do like how it shows things.
I don’t think it works as well in other aspects that I expected though, probably because it throws off pacing and characterisation.
I attended my interview this morning.
I survived…
I survived, but in my attempt to be friendly I think I accidentally undermined myself with excess honesty.
In other news, I finally caught up on ReZero.
I forgot how great this arc of the novel was… Also Subaru’s awesome epic speech is coming up in a few episodes.
I’m really looking forward to that one.
I think when you read this I should be just getting home from my job interview.
I wonder how it went.
I am a bundle of anxiety right now over it honestly.
Hurray for social anxiety and autism am I right?
Comicon was less fun than hoped, but I knew that going in…
After all, I was attending to serve as a guide to four young teens and two of their mothers.
We only saw half the con in the end, and I had to do so much walking.
They also managed to spend half an hour using the toilet at one point…
I am honestly not sure how that is even possible.
I left youtube on autoplay for music today and this one song came on that seemed really amateurish but had some promise.
So I figured, it’s not really that great but considering it’s probably someone’s indie song I’m impressed.
And the lyrics were decent, rhyming wasn’t great but it gave me some cool narrative ideas with the story it painted…
Anyway I tabbed over to take a look at it, and it was by an AI.
Wow, what a world we live in.
I feel like I committed some grave sin being impressed by it.
Shocking news, I actually finished the editing for this in advance this time!
Normally I do them right before I publish…
Not the best way to handle things I know but…
Well, you see how I am.
It sort of gets that way when you do something long enough-.
Anyway, I didn’t this time, so I felt a need to say it so. Enjoy.
I finished making my mod at last today.
Well finished is a relative term, I have made everything I wanted to make, up to this point.
I will do any final tweaks soon after the last round of proper game testing and then upload it for my friends to use as it was originally intended.
Since it’s all niche reference jokes for them to get.
I have been having fun with Baldur’s Gate 3… but I don’t think I am actually that good at it…
Even with a mod that increases my party size I am often struggling with fights, in theory I should be outputting more damage than the game is balanced for, yet I struggle…
This is what they mean by skill issue.
It might also just be because I am new… I’m not sure.
(I forgot to post because I was ranting to a friend on discord about how Baldurs Gate 3’s writing is a weird mix of genius and downright awful.)
(Sorry, I’m just really not appreciating how the romance progression is handled.)
(Also, I hate quests that force you to choose between ‘least worst options’ which this game seems to love.)
I was betrayed.
To my great disappointment, Baldur’s Gate doesn’t seem to be participating in the turn-based rpg sale on Steam despite being the top item in the tab…
Anyway, I bought it still, because my friends keep pushing for a multiplayer campaign.
Even though I am neck deep in Satisfactory right now already!
