New year, so I updated and even added more of my tastes in media. I'm hoping my mutuals and I can be friends, and what we like in common and what's different can be a conversation starter.

I hate how gaming discussions have devolved into this “Us vs. Them” moral crusade where even saying something is fun or poking fun at a flaw could be seen as a controversial statement. Feels like it’s become a flaw to just turn off your brain and have fun

Just wanna have fun playing Pokemon here

If you say anything positive about Nintendo, you’re a shill.

If you say anything negative about Nintendo, you’re a grifter.

You can’t win.

Nobody can win.

Everyone is a loser!

Another reason I don't like western stories as much is that there's less focus on symbolism, subtext, and overall the stories and worlds are just less creative. There's some I like such as Sly Cooper, Ratchet and Clank, and most of what Rare made.

I always appreciate things that have a tinge of humor or playful sarcasm. SMT has that even if it's supposed to be bitter and isolated. One reason I don't like western stories as much is that they feel like they have to be too serious and mature all the time. I have more to say about that but limits

Video games have never been more fulfilling as a hobby for me as it is now.

There’s so many cool titles I want to play and the only thing that’s limiting me is time.

I like both but I kind of prefer the original. More unique kind of female design imo.

I like how you're calling it ZaZa

I offered my friends to do this with me, but they all back out because they either don't have money or just don't want to go out.

We're both old heads and we share a lot of the same values and opinions

The Tadpole Prince @thetadpoleprince.bsky.social · 7d

That's curious. You don't like things being too wordy? You mean when a story has to overexplain for something to make sense?

I wish I had the time management to make videos. There's a lot of games I could talk about and being a writing minor, I could use the practice making video essays.

I have Gnosia on my wishlist because another friend of mine really likes that game.

I actually don't know anything about this game you're talking about. Now that the air is clear I'd like to learn about it.

I've been playing ZA with a friend of mine and so far, we both think it's the best pokemon game of the switch generation.

The Tadpole Prince @thetadpoleprince.bsky.social · 7d

I mixed it up with Sea of Stars. Sorry, you're right

The Tadpole Prince @thetadpoleprince.bsky.social · 7d

WAIT I mixed up that game with Sea of Stars! I'm sorry
