Rants: Everyday Venting

[Cecilia Peromi]

Every time I use my fursona to deviate from my real life body I get sad. I've never liked my body the way it is. There are so many things I wish I could change. Like wanting to be... bigger... It doesn't make sense, who would want that right? But that's just the kind of weirdo I am.

And I hope you get to feeling better PBR.

Laptop restarted itself for an update. No warning, and i was mid-skype conversation.

Feel so wiped out after decathalon today. Now I can't sleep and just feel shaky. BTW I like the festive picture angder.

Being lied to by "friends." Now the struggle of finding new ones.

I find the lack of scarves and/or goggles in Morrowind disturbing.
I also find the lack of mods that add scarves and/or goggles into Morrowind disturbing.
(Sure, I've stumbled across some, but most of them link to sites that have long since ceased to be, or then they look a little too out of place (too "futuristic") for my liking. I'm in no way picky, but if it looks like something that'd make more sense out in space or on a modern-day ski slope it just looks wrong to me)


The game takes place on an island with frequent ash/duststorms that tend to strike without warning like lightning from a clear sky.
It feels so annoyingly immersion-breaking that people simply walk around in those storms out in the wilderness all "Hurrdurr I'll just keep my arm in front of my face and keep going as if it's nothing" (I -love- that they do that tho. But it'd still be fun with those other things.)
 
"But wouldn't those other things be lore/immersion-breaking as well?"
No, they would not. There are already various helmets that sort of have scarves and goggles in their design.
But for ordinary people who don't helmets or even armor at all there's literally nothing.


If I only had a computer that'd be able to stand it, I'd happily try to learn how to create the models for the items I'd like myself, but sadly, I do not.
*Sad kantele*

EDIT: Turns out I can. ONWARDS TO GLORY!!

Spoiler for Hidden:

[Cheza]

There are great changes ahead of me and the future seems uncertain.
I'm not really feeling too good about all that.

[Cecilia Peromi]

Hey, I'm right there with you Cheza. I have a feeling that soon my life will begin to change forever. Although I'm more excited than worried.

[BennyJackdaw]

Corrin from Fire Emblem and Bayonetta are now in Smash Brothers. Now I just have to figure out how to spend the 13 bucks in my EShop account that's now NOT going to more Smash Brothers content.

It pisses me off when I find a Facebook game I like but they do this shit:

--- Neighbor/ally amount requirements to progress.
I understand why, but when none of your friends are currently interested in the game, you're screwed. Wouldn't it be better to have the person playing keep playing instead of quitting because they can't force their friends to play it? It should reward you for getting people into the game, not make it a requirement.

--- "You performed another trivial action! Would you like to tell all your friends?!?!?!?!?!"
No. I can understand if I did something actually interesting in the game. All I did was basic stuff. No one gives a shit. And when the game lags due to its stupid pop up crap, it's possible to accidentally click the accept/send button! So now all my friends who don't even have the game could get ticked off at me AND the game because I keep giving them notifications for pointless BS.

--- Shoving show-offy microtransaction deals onto the screen to the point it covers up the screen and/or actually lags the game.

I understand the need for microtransactions for free app games, but going too crazy with the offer pop-ups and whatnot just makes the experience in the game more cruddy even for people who actually DO try to support the game through buying that stuff. There are better ways to advertise and hype up the offer than making big flashy animated crap that makes the game run irritably poor. My computer can run high quality PC games perfectly fine. If a friggen 2d social media app lags to crap when it plasters that stuff on screen, that means something is very wrong.
