Maetel the realest

Been compiling a watch list in regards to the .hack. video/the research process for it. Wanna really dig into the MEAT of those vibes. boxd.it/U4Jqw

My Crystal Chronicles Retro. It's a whole subset of games that I hold dear. In some ways, it tried what FF 15 & 16 would do years later, in others, it continued the vibes of 9, and mostly, it did things FF will likely never try again. youtu.be/97ioU9ZemAI?...

Garden of Light is the perfect Route A followup, just deeply highlighting all of Eris' justifications for what she's doing, her jealousy, her bitterness, her regret, her anger at the system that led her and guilted her and manipulated her into this immense pain. Absolutely a BANGER.

Here's the deal. I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do. It's gonna happen. Better videos, wilder streams, obscurer games, bizzarrer hardware. Even grammar can't hold me back. It's just a matter of time. But if you want to help me get there faster, go ahead and chip in: ko-fi.com/alienbob/goa...

The more I sit with things it really feels like Route A is the intended experience and Routes B and C feel more like bonuses (an argument could at least be made for B but it's insane how little C gives you). It's unsatisfying in a bad way instead of like Route A which was unsatisfying in a good way.

One of the best parts of Drakengard 2 is how much it really gets you to despise Seere much in the same way you should despise Verdelet. It really takes this idea that Seere learned nothing and refuses to try to change anything, enacting the same cruelty that led the world to ruin twice before.

My PS2 is having issues booting .hack through Neutrino :( I need to test other games to make sure that something with PSBBN itself isn't fucking up but we'll seeeeee. Troubleshooting suuuuucks :(

Ghost Hunting in Metal Gear is one of the most fun and spiritually cathartic videos I've ever made I love it so much and more people should watch it I demand this

The best is yet to come from me but I think more people might enjoy this look at a broken parable within one of the most beloved Legend of Heroes titles

The coolest video I will ever make was this narrated audio tour for a prolific eroge composer that was still visually interesting enough to be more than just a podcast or something. youtu.be/S54-nR6iavw?...

Honestly probably my video on Disaster: Day of Crisis, it's a game that deserves more attention and love and I think I did a great job really breaking it down! youtu.be/nIvgcV59rVs?...

Fellow YouTubers, what's one video of yours you feel deserves more views? Of course they all deserve six digits, but which one do you think more people should see? For me it's my video on the Kenneth Branagh Hamlet game. Such a wild thing to exist and be hidden for so long. youtu.be/Qm3LoWtVI1U

Still haven't played it actually! Wanna get around to it eventually but just hasn't happened yet. Especially for Blaidd......I gotta get to it for Blaidd.....

I REALLY need to get back to this one sometime. I've known about it for a long time but only have played about the first I think 2 hours of it (for the castlevania video funnily enough) and was like enamored with it. Such a weird and interesting time travel adventure game type beat.

I think the farthest I've gotten into Undertale was just past the Papyrus fight, cute and fun time from what I played but for whatever reason I've just felt 0 motivation to ever finish it and Deltarune also hasn't really pulled me in either This video is pretty funny tho youtu.be/u5NqO2v_xnY

Vibes, atmosphere, and so much goddamn visual sauce, a game really firing on all fronts. I've been thinking about booting it up and playing a bit of it again recently on whatever private server is out there for it tbh.

Defo my favorite FF at this point, I really love everything about it on top of being the one I've replayed the most at this point. The tragedy being so layered over the entire experience of things is so well done, love it so much! I should make a video on it at some point.

only 1 Novella to read it seems

peeks in at you hii i'm live!! come hang out :3 #vtuber www.twitch.tv/velvetpuppy_

One of my favorite RPG's ever made. Part of the reason there should be more Horror RPG's in general. Absolutely one of the best to ever do it. The music in Parasite Eve alone is like GOAT status. youtu.be/db9Ivw2SNUw?...

Drakengard 2 is kinda like Chainsaw Man if ya think about it

Digital Devil Saga is so fuckin cool, out of all of them that I've tried, DDS is so damn cool. I've dabbled in Nocturne, some of the SNES stuff and 4 and I really wanna dig into one for real and I think the first one I finish might just be DDS but we'll see. Should probably do mainline first.

Never played this BUT I dooooo have a 3ds with it loaded up I should finally do that sometime.....

Used to be MUCH colder on it the first time I played it but honestly adore it at this point especially as a gameplay representation of agoraphobia, it's very cool if messy.

Drakengard 2 is finally done This game did not need 3 routes, I'm gonna be honest it probably didn't even need 2.

Interesting way to follow up 1 though idk if I'd necessarily call it amazing, need to play it again sometime cause its been a long time tbh

CLASSIC childhood banger

I actually don't know much about Grandia 2. It seems like it has a much different vibe than 1's more laid back seaside summer kinda feel. I really wanna get around to it (just wanna get a dreamcast first lol)

Chaos Legion seems like such a trip, I've only ever played the first two levels but it's just so confident in the bizarre weird ass shit it's doing that I gotta see where it goes in full.

I actually have still to this day never gotten all that far into Cave Story and I don't really know why I haven't it seems like something I would probably click with but I've always fallen off of it very early on for no particular reason. I should really finally get around to that.

Now it's been a loooong ass time since I've played 1 buuuuut it captures the kind of Ichi The Killer, Zebraman, Dead or Alive Miike ass vibes that it's going for and the whole cast is probably one of my favorites in gaming.

I fuckin love Lifeline so much it's such a cool but misguided idea. I love the whole connection between Rio and the player and how that develops over the course of guiding her through it. I feel like the tech issues and her fuckin things up adds a lil something to it too.

Very cool! Kinda don't fuck with the mazey key hunts of the later parts of it but very charming game and very fun through to the end.

Honestly could just never really get into it, tried a few times over the years but just never really clicked for me. I wanna at least give it another fair shot sometime but we'll see.

I really need to finish this one (and by extension play the rest) majorly because of how genuinely weird it is as an experience from top to bottom from the half of it I have played but also because Toyama is one of the best to ever do it.

Demon's Souls: RAD fuckin game, really love the vibe Dark Souls: Does nothing for me Dark Souls 2: Really wanna play the og version, love the vibes, think I wasn't enjoying playing SotFS Dark Souls 3: Loved this one beginning to end with a friend at the time and still do Bloodborne: All Timer

Pretty dope but it's no PN03......

I really like everybody's designs in this one from what I've seen but I haven't really played any AA anything yet, one of those series where I really need to just take the plunge on em

One of those games that I NEED to actually play because it seems so made for me in so many ways, the second on PS2 especially seems VERY up my alley, I'm just torn between playing the PS1 or PSP version of 1 tbh. I'll probably end up doing both me being me.

A game I've loved the vibe of since I first saw it as a kid but never quite got around to in full yet, Eyes on Me is the best vocal Final Fantasy track and it's not even close youtu.be/OYpHS6ffvVc

Really need to get back to this but had me so into it for a min that I read all of The King of Yellow for it so that's gotta say something.

Angelus and Caim's theme in Drakengard 2 if we're being deadass: youtu.be/H61YWtExfS0?...

I really need to do some shit like this in a video sometime. I wanna play around more with raising anxiety/uncomfort in the viewer for small segments of stuff if it works with what im discussing and shit like this is so perfect to try to replicate.

If Sh15uya didn't inspire The World Ends With You at least a little bit I would be shocked tbh

TOMORROW @ 12 PM PT MONSTER WORLD IV

Starting my watch of Heisei Internet Anxiety stuff with the toku series Shi15uya and holy fuck this shit is both wild, mad engaging and doing so much interesting shit with the camera work (angles, shutter speed stuff) and rad lighting choices. So fuckin down with this from the jump.

If you have intensive social anxiety/paranoia, don't work graveyard shift it will make it worse Biggest mistake of my fucking life lol
