This dude’s route and bad endings were an angst-fest but at least his unlocked CG is p spicy...that slutty shoulder action

THEN DO IT YOU COWARD

Why can I not kiss this angry department chief?

What I’m saying is: Collar Malice could be trying harder

See also the “bad ending” in Mystic Messenger when the too-rich dude who’s obsessed with his pet cat’s safety decided to make you another pet & gives you GPS-enabled high heels so he can make sure you never leave the apartment.

All the routes in Amnesia are good, but the best “twist” among them is the affable older brother type who is protective of you, who escalates to drugging your food and locking you in a dog cage “to keep you safe”. He feeds you through the bars!! It’s WILD.

This dude’s actual goal in life is to die while saving me, and it’s BARELY creepy. At least make him a masochist or something!!

Ugh, Amnesia really set the bar too high for me in terms of “this dude is a nightmare you dare not let yourself imagine”.

The thing with random compliments from people about transitioning is I can’t do any of the “well they had to say that to be polite” dismissal with myself and I have to just...believe...it?

So I never “came out” because I don’t believe in centering the feelings of cis people in my own identity, and that has resulted in a much more low-key set of conversations with people (because tbh it’s just not that big of a deal). Also I avoid most shitty “but ME” reactions from cis folks, AND APPARENTLY it means I get messages like this from random work clients.

Deep into the “the villain is actually correct” part of the story

This has to be a joke

One of my custom content packages is broken and is causing randomly generated townies to use the Grim Reaper’s eyes, which are just big round disks. So slowly more and more of my town looks like this:

Taking a break from the day to debug a very weird glitch in The Sims

That was really fun! The first act definitely had more momentum and clarity of vision than the second half, but it’s hard to balance “mocking social mores” with “sincere emotional arc” (which is why Austen is so amazing), and the visual conventions established to do the former in the first act got a lot muddier when used for the latter in the second act.

I feel...seen.

(Also, John McDermott designed this set, gotta get better about attribution for this sort of thing)

Different actors have been wandering on and off set all through house seating, chatting with each other and setting props in a very “are they in character or not yet” way and I continue to love this.

Yep, already super into this. Live theater! Beautiful and creative set design! The finer things in life. 💗
