the personal blog of the "no longer in their 20s" owner of the above blog, where i:
• play and write about video games (usually old ones i guess but anything goes)
• go thrifting for cool electronics / things that deserve to be tinkered with and fixed
• ignore my unimportant job as much as i can
• melt my brain with the weed (mute "#weed log" to mute me posting while high if you want)
in that order


not really nsfw but no minors please and thank

phantasy star adventure on the game gear sure is... something

it's a kind of game that makes you wonder if "every game is someones favorite" is actually statistically true because it bears almost no consequences even in a vacuum and utilizes the world of phantasy star as window dressing while providing nothing in return except a short, kind of humdrum story that is never mentioned again



and god they're all pretty good... except for rudger's? (rudo in the original english translation)

his is like. really bad. like wtf why did they do rudo so dirty giving him a really nonsensical story with really stupid text adventure "puzzle nonsequiturs"? like using a shotgun on a waterfall to open a path? or a harp as an object to calm down a guy? ??? i played his last too so the taste of his being bad is just stuck in my mouth now, which sucks even worse! it doesn't even have a writers credit so i think someone didn't like it either

the rest of them not only add a lot of character to all seven other party members but they're all fun narratives to see play out and mostly pretty intuitive, rudo's was filled with too much shit to pick up and uneventful except for the end where he experiences grief and that's it???? like wtf
