🏓 Hey gamers I'm Heather, I'm an artist/writer/shiny hunter with a giant love for randomizers. Huge fan of Pokemon, Octopath, Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, LoZ, and so much more.

My Alt account where I post WIP and sketches is @wayward-sketchbook.bsky.social

Sam and Charley in a field of flowers. They are characters from the Fire Emblem Romhack- The Morrow's Golden Country.

A shiny Dratini from HeartGold. Specifically it's the gift one from Dragons Den, as it knows ExtremeSpeed.

The latest CB updating giving Kayleigh custom wings is lit not because it's a cute reference to the Soundtrack art but also it helps hide the fact that I'm a clown and a fool.

The image is a six panel black and white comic

Panel 1- A small child is being told "You'll want kids when you're older!" The child responds with "I don't think so..."

Panel 2- The same child, now a teenager, is being told, "You'll change your mind when you're older." To which the teen responds, "I doubt that"

Panel 3- Now an adult, someone off screen asks them, "Aren't you thinking of having kids?" To which they respond, "Nope"

Panel 4- The same person, an older adult now, is being told, "better have kids soon, or it'll be too late!" to which they respond, "That's fine"

Panel 5- Now elderly, they are once again asked "Don't you feel like you missed out?" to which they say, "Still nope."

Panel 6- They are now in their death bed, clearly close to death. The nurse says, "Shame you didn't have kids, don't you regret it?" To which the person says "You know what just kill me already"

I'm so ready to get sillay

4k is such an interesting thing because 4k tvs have become so more affordable but I'm still lacking that on the PC side. Like wym I can run the switch 2 on 4K but my PC set up that's was twice that can't 😭

As a result people are getting priced out of PC gaming because stuff with ray tracing eats up so much energy and CPU usage and PC games take like 10 years to make. Like that's a 1500$ GPU, chasing that is going leave out so many people. I don't want that, I want fun games that look like shit

Wayward 🌿 @waywardrosalind.standingintheodds.com · 1d

Add on since this is doing numbers- I am not saying "Big file size means game bad" I am saying "Really good games have been held back because of big file size"

BG3 is a critically acclaimed game that has seen (very deserved) success. It's also too huge for my computer for smthing I'm not huge on

Wayward 🌿 @waywardrosalind.standingintheodds.com · 1d

I wanted to volunteer but it's super close to new job and I wanted to focus on that for the moment. Next time for sure.

GDQueer looks so cool.

Like again, as much as I loved MHWilds and thought it looked cool, my favorite game I played this year so far was... 1.06GBs. File sizes shouldn't correlate with anything but I really need this industry to stop releasing bloat way cause I can't afford these external storage rn.

Wayward 🌿 @waywardrosalind.standingintheodds.com · 1d

110 is kinda an investment for me especially since most of the games I love are under 50 GB. I do want to get more space but for videos and stuff and it can wait.

but yeah rn I have 766 GBs free. Granted I need to get my Xbox shit off of there but that's... not a lot of space lol.

Wayward 🌿 @waywardrosalind.standingintheodds.com · 1d

those are like 200 dollars right now and they're not made in the US so it will get hit with tariffs for me

Wayward 🌿 @waywardrosalind.standingintheodds.com · 1d

Like I legit agree that file size is separate from how good a game is but I only got so much storage to go around so it is a huge factor on if I try something.

Wayward 🌿 @waywardrosalind.standingintheodds.com · 1d

The thing to me is that the people I know that loves all those games the file size is an *in spite of* Like, I love Monster Hunter Wilds but that file size is *not it*

Like "Yeah BG3 is awesome but I hate how long it takes to download stuff"

CPU Storage is EXPENSIVE 😭 I gotta be picky.
