    Kon was certainly a tad chipper than Anno, but I think it would be hard to find another creative as bipolar as Anno.

    Yeah, that was a great vid on a great director. The last section hit a little too close too home, but I'm happy you shared it with me.

    That is very true. I'm sad there is very few good SMT Youtube channels. Either they are just game reviewers trying too hard to be funny. There is one guy who has some interesting topics, but in addition to having an annoying voice, he also tends to just debate other people about the topic into two hour messes. I have one guy that is okay, but doesn't go into depth like I would like. I feel Vaarti Vidya and the Soulsborne community as a whole has spoiled me on strong analytical videos about a series. The guy I linked to dopes have some great videos as well, but his videos can be a bit excessive.

    Like as an example:


    Like it's very informative and has some great details, but... yeah I don't know if he goes on too many tangents or what but taking a 45 second piece of dialogue and spending half an hour explaining all the subtext , symbolism, and allusions just feels a bit weird to me. Most of his work is good but holy hell I'm on tape 2 of this series he's doing and he's trying to show where he thinks some footsteps overhears in a tape were recorded on a military base for reasons?

    These are video essays, but this guy is just crazy on details. I mean he's taking the two minute tape recording from one of several dozen story tapes and wrote a 45 minute essay on what was sai in it. I mean there is some interesting historical and literary research in the videos, but I feel the logic connecting it all may be too much of a stretch and giving Kojima more credit than he deserves.

    Have we discussed how absolutely insane Kojima fans are? I've been listening to a crazy fan's Youtube series that is very informative and detailed, but also feels like he's attaching way more metaphors and allusions that I don't quite feel is there. It's like some serious Future Esthar style shenanigans.

    That's cool, maybe it will motivate me to finish my FFV Let's Play when you get to that one. I picked up my Metal Gear playthrough I started last year. So I'm blasting through my fave entry of MGS3.

    Well Saturdays are a good start. So at least we can work something out for next week or the following. As for editing, I wouldn't really bother anyone until we actually have a recording to give.

    I'm usually off Tuesday or Saturdays, but won't be able to do this Saturday due to errands.

    That could be a good start.

Part of your world

by Fynn on 06-06-2017 at 04:37 PM
So there's this nagging issue I've had for quite some time now. It's a pretty abstract issue but one I think is pretty interesting and perhaps even important to share nonetheless. For many reasons, it has only become more pronounced recently.

As some of you may know, I want to be a writer. I try to do as much writing as I can. I even do writing for a living, though as an SEO copywriter, it's not exactly that I have an opportunity to spread my creative wings as part of what keeps giving

On FFVII (part of my Fmarathon rant)

by Fynn on 11-23-2016 at 11:16 AM
Decided this is worthy of being a blog-post, since it turned out to be a much bigger rant than I expected and I'm not sure the marathon's audience is really there for that kind of stuff

So far, I can say that

Frustrations of the writerly sort

by Fynn on 07-01-2016 at 11:13 AM
So there's this thing I've been struggling for quite some time. I don't want to call it a "writer's block" because it kind of seems like an excuse for being lazy. And it usually doesn't last long. This is something that's been eating at me for a long time.

I just kinda feel that I can't write anymore.

I mean, I still write articles for the site sometimes and I write other texts at my work, but it seems like, creatively, I've dried up. I'll come up with ideas

On story expectations

by Fynn on 03-30-2016 at 11:57 AM
So this is kind of a general discussion, but the general rant I have is based on three popular 3DS RPGs: Bravely Default, Fire Emblem: Awakening, and Shin Megami Tensei IV. Sorry if this is chaotic, as I'm just writing this as it comes into my mind. Also, spoilers from the three games abound.

All of those games were very well received, though for different reasons. SMT is kind of here to serve as a neutral ground, as the evaluation of its story is pretty divided, whereas the consensus

Character Appreciation: Junpei Iori

by Fynn on 03-30-2016 at 10:37 AM
This is in no way an idea I stole from Pumpkin, no siree.


Junpei Iori is a character from the Persona franchise. He first appears in Persona 3 and all of its subsequent releases as a playable party member. He becomes a social link character as well in the female path of Persona 3 Portable, though he isn't date-able. He is also playable in
