I just met my AI buddy in this game and for all I know they’re great but my kneejerk response to their appearance was “piss off you freak”

Probably also a big part of why I enjoy games and stories set in space so much, what's cozier than inhabiting a frail metallic refuge sailing through an environment that is utterly anathema to all life (this is only a fantasy, please don't shoot me into space in a rocket, I'd die)

I think there's a critical difference between democratizing a thing so that people without resources can do that thing, which is what we should all strive for, and "democratizing" a thing so that people with resources can eliminate having to pay people to do the thing for them, which is bad.

there's a bit where Yukkie says something along the lines of "aren't you too young to have dementia" in response to Ruka's clowning around, and my immediate thought was "in Jun Maeda world, no girl is too young for any cognitive disorder, you fool"

you get a yellow warning sign that basically tells you "it makes no sense for this character to be here under the current circumstances", and I assume later on, the unspoken part of that sentence will be "BECAUSE THEY ARE FUCKING DEAD".

is it coincidence that I started losing interest in the series when they started slacking on the airship front in FFX ? I think not.

Yes! Atori was my favorite character, he made the best unhinged faces (I was going to add an example picture, but i couldn't find a single screencap of him in google that wasn't hideously lowres or that didn't have a giant watermark, sadly)

I like (what I assume is) the design for the back of the cards. The void also looks cool, I want to drink it.

this is also why jam games are so fun and satisfying to make, because you get them out the door quick, before you have time to realize that you don't know what the fuck you are doing.

it's the curse of working on a thing for a long time, you rotate it in your mind so much that all the shine wears off and you can no longer ignore its glaring flaws.

At least I know Ucchii0 is trustworthy, you can tell because of his prominent use of stick figures. This is a man with respect for his craft.

maybe I'll just stick to buying music packs from DLSite (not that DLSite is free from AI slop, but at least they clearly disclose it)

I've been using rpgmaker for a looong time (possibly decades at this point but I'm trying not to think too hard about it), and I'm still at it! I'd be happy to be added!

some people like characters that suck (are bad people).
I like characters that suck (are badly written).

Then I finally played it and was disappointed that she was essentially just a damsel in distress with barely any agency.
And yet, when I think of FSN characters I like she is still forefront in my mind. Probably because I'm fixated on a version of the character that exists only in my head.

I had decided she would be my favorite character before I even played the game, and back then the mirror moon translation patch of the Heaven's Feel route was still years away. People hyping up HF made her sound so cool. Demure girl next door gets eldritch powers and goes psycho mode? Sign me in.

...then again, maybe not.

i'm not sure whether to trust the veracity of this statement, but she DOES seem like the sort of character that somehow manages to remain obliviously optimistic and unharmed through sheer dumb luck.
