Impressions on Persona 3*
Mischief and Sherigan talk about their experiences with Persona 3. This interview-style questionnaire was written by both of us, after Mischief proposed the idea so we could share our thoughts on the game.
Love is in the Air
I've recently returned to a genre I have always liked, but have only had specific exposure to: Romance. For the most part, I've read/watched RomComs the most, and recently got back into the genre. Without further ado, here are the romances that have recently swept me off my feet.
Tension and release: The ability to slow down.
A game's pacing is important and a commonality in its DNA. However, there are more ways than one to move from an action piece onto a calmer section within the same game. Recently, one specific variation of that has been on my mind: The ability to take your time, and remain stagnant.
Revisiting the hydra.
It's been just about two months since Mischief had her frustrations in regard to the engagement with their hobbies in the clothes of a metaphorical hydra. This is mostly a catch up post - how have things changed since then? And what has this literary barista been up to?
Bonding with Bond, James Bond
I spend what little free time I recently had on James Bond. First by rewatching Casino Royale through Skyfall, and later, by playing IOI's 007 First Light. A triumphant mix of Hitman and Uncharted elements, that has left me wanting more, and makes me want to take a deeper look at Bond.
...I'm still thinking about Starkid and their Hatchetfield-Universe.
It's not quite over. Mischief had a lot of time to think about their recent revisit into the Hatchetverse. This led to a quick look at horror fiction, musicals, and the concept of being considered camp.
'Is this me, or is this you?' - When dancing turns infectious.
The barista should have known that this was inevitable. A quick look at the two versions of 'Let It Out' from 'The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals' and the Reprise! What changes were made?
Ranking every song from the Hatchetverse for fun
In just a few days Starkid Productions will publicly be releasing 'The Guy Who Didn't Like Musical: Reprise'. This is the perfect opportunity to take a look back and revisit all the songs which are part of the Hatchetfield-Universe.
Cinderella's Castle: A tale retold.
This is about a dark fantasy retelling of a classic folk/fairy tale that dares to experiment with that is already known. Mischief's quick list why this adaptation could be worth your time. (Unless your name is Paul Matthews)
Apparently, Persona 6 is real.
Just a few thoughts regarding the persona series, their latest announcements, and why I'm not as hyped as I'd assumed I'd be.
If I believed in wishes...
What is the difference between a request and a wish? An opinionated look at Silksong's introduction to its quest system and how it managed to enthral at least one player.
How I learned to stop worrying and love the hydra.
For years, Mischief has been fighting their own personal hydra, a fight that had long since turned into a battle of futility. This article covers Mischief's thought process - when it becomes clear that they're not even sure who they're rooting for any longer.
