I went into this not spoiled for anything

lies here emotionally shredded by paper boats

good

I'm so smad I put playing this off for so long, it's audiovisually gorgeous and the gameplay was super interesting and fun to learn. it was short, but sweet, didn't overstay its welcome...

Rattles you

I'M STILL

Rattles you !!!!

UPSET

3 years later I'm still upset

UGH

So look forward to that

hucks royce off a cliff tho

eat shit royce

u crappy little television man

UGH it was such a good game

I'M SO GLAD YOU PLAYED IT

royce is trash

ah.. lays a hand on your shoulder understandably

as soon as I typed that I was like sweats that's right crystal plays royce

waking up to nemo yelling angrily about the ending at 5am

HAHA

and then I was like IDC ROYCE IS HOT GARBAGE

royce sucks but i do love him tbh

it's the voice tho

he had a very very very good punchable mumble voice

it was incredible voice acting

I just wanted to slam dunk that television off the fairview bridge

fairway

idr

it's been ages since i played the game so my memory of it might be rusty but i thought it did a great job of bringing light to the motives of the camerata

yeah

I'm not super into story being monologued out by one person but it was refreshing after all the walls of text in the functions, sweats

which I guess is the two ways to get story across in games like this

yeah...

but my eyes definitely glazed over at the function text, I need to go back and read into this game more, I'm super into the story

supergiant is bizarre bc they are simultaneously great with atmospheric storytelling and then they also piledrive you with a shitload of lore in block text format

at the time I was just like I wanna beat the gaaame

right

ye I think it works bc the lore is mostly supplemental

i read through all the function text but i feel you... my eyes were glazed when i was trying to read thru the stuff in pyre

like pyre gives you a whole fucking history book

yeah, god

but it's 100% optional

blocktext lore**

i just vastly prefer transistor but,

yeah p much. like the game works without it, I'd still feel emotionally invested

it's intimidating to have in game and nice to have out ig

yeah...

i think they just try to have the best of both worlds lol

the writer seems like the kind of person who knows well enough to do atmospheric/hands-off storytelling, but also gets very excited about the worldbuilding and shares it optionally regardless

im ok with it... i just gotta have the energy to read it i suppose

ye

anyways im looking through my liveblog tag and remembering a lot of the lines that blue said to red and I... NeED to play this again

I told ambi but I'll tell plurk too I was chill until like, exactly six seconds after the still of them sitting together came up, and then on the dot I completely lost my shit

it was strange and precise

i know EXACTLY what you mean

HAHA

i fucking lost it through the entire end credits sequence tbh

I'm so happy

yeah all the stills and the credits just made my eyes angrier

love my fave like I love my fave

the karaoke place here is a chromecast so you can play any song you want, so sometimes i saddle my friends with listening to me basically yowl my way through paper boats, trying not to cry the whole time

rattles you

ugly yowling

I LOVE YOUR FAVE

LMAO

incredible

fucking paper boats...ruining my life

the last still is very important to me,,,

the image of them in the country,,,,,,,,,,

I yowl paper boats while I draw sometimes

i needed that hOPE....

THE FUCKING LITTLE

HI'S THEY GIVE EACH OTHER

YEAH

smothers myself

SET ME ON FIRE, GODDAMN

hey did you do the thing where like

so there's the picture of your, i guess it's the advertisement poster for your show or whatever

and you can just keep staring at it or turn away

and if you keep staring at it blue just sorta starts to beg you to let it go and keep going

I kept staring...........

clutches chest

and i just remember being like

same...

i got the game and was playing it at the same time as a bunch of friends, live-blogging, and i remember all of us simultaneously getting very alarmed at how Hot the Sword was

IT ENDED UP BEING JUSTIFIED BUT FOR A WHILE WE WERE LIKE, UHHH

THE SWORD IS SO FUCKING HOT I HAVE NO SHAME

SWORD WAS FUCKING HOT THE MOMENT HE OPENED HIS STUPID SWORD MOUTH

FUCK YOU SWORD

ugh.

did u play ps4 or pc

Ndndkdndkdk

bc he talks to you from the ps4 controller when you play console

pc, I have no ps4 :'|

WHAT

and that was REALLY, A LOT

yeah

???????????????

immediately tells my friend with a ps4 to get this game

that was one of my favorite features of the ps4 version

though i gotta warn you, supergiant... has framerate issues on ps4?

Omg

it literally ruined my experience of pyre

sad

That's cute

Gets a PS4 just for that

i made bad decisions in pyre and was upset at the ending, and i can't even replay to make better choices because my framerate made each rite actually painful to play

i think they patched pyre recently so idk if it helped at all...

i think there were issues with transistor also but it's half-turn based so i didn't notice as much

:'|

pros and cons................

sword voice... is worth it...

honestly, yes, it is

i don't really know logan cunningham does the things that he does with his voice but i am not going to complain about it

can I just get a track of drunk sword boy to listen to when I am down

*know how...

he is so cute...

HE IS...

so sweet...

“that’s my star. always could handle yourself well. i love you so much, red. you know that, right?”

this was the line that killed me

I'd carry around a sword the size of my body if it loved me like he could

THAT LINE...

that and ofc "i look up to the sky where the stars should be, and I just see you"

that's not exact but

when he said that i remember my soul exiting my body

barfs my soul out of my body

LOL NEMO SAME

THIS PLURK IS JUST MAKING ME SMADDER

also:

> I’m going to find the thing that’s doing this and I’m going to break its heart.

when red was talking to blue thru the terminal...

cease and desist

misery loves company

I was almost over it and I scrolled past this and got smad again

pAPER

BOAT

I ever be healed

pats your shoulder

there there friend

no

this pain will always be with you

no please insult royce as much as possible, he deserves it

ROYYYCE

ugh angrily sweats and puts this WIP here too I'm in so deep

...

YELLS A LOT

send help

noooo that's so cute
