@manifold whao,

@gaycats the reaction i try to get out of my mutuals with my posts sometimes

@compufox my posting habits in your mentions is threatening to suspend you off my instance for the bit while trying to post things that will make you want to do the same thing. anyway urrurr ubbubb ebg13

@compufox focks tumblr queer arc

@Lady it could be pupy- or kityposting

@Lady though part of what is interesting about this is how The Meta can often subvert games developed with the latter goal in mind by finding optimal builds and punishing players for not using them

@Lady though interestingly when it comes to very social games you end up in a situation where the meta itself ends up becoming something the player needs to negotiate, regardless of (though usually in addition to) Developer Intent

@Lady i feel like this is a dialectic negotiated on a per-game basis to an appreciable extent; something like gmod being built around the latter; linear narrative driven games designed around the former

@xenon i would greatly.supurrt this

@Lady i think of games as too hard to define to have an answer to this poll i would purrsonally be satisfied with

@coriander @Lady i was so annoyed by the datalogs because

1. put that shit in the overworld??? make exploring worth anything???????
2. it’s a bunch of references and repetition of story that’s already explained in just. the cutscenes. and then like. eggman’s opinions on the main cast. idc do something INTERESTING i am BEGGING you

@coriander @Lady it’s supposed to be a Touching Father Daughter Relationship but like. he’s kinda shit. lmao

@coriander @Lady it’s also undermined pretty hard by eggman being an asshole the whole time to her up to that point

@Lady i like her anyway but her arc doesn’t really, land

@Lady they added a new character and i want to love her so much but unfortunately the story is b a d

@Lady one more reason sonic frontiers was frustrating
