Why just distract yourself when you could ALSO listen to a [podcast]?
I'm currently playing Yakuza 5 WHILE listening to MBMBAM read a buckwild turducken-of-90's-references pizza newspiece.
How're y'all distracting yourselves WHILE distracting yourselves?

in fact the whole thing sucks except the single big crazy reveal moment

anyways they uploaded the first one of these to youtube
It's up there with my favorite games, so it feels good to have mastered it (and it's DLCs!)
Now it's onto Rogue, which I played for a few days via Redbox, thought was really cool, and then never played again
The cast contributes songs, poems, it's all p. good
In the first entry, Chris Hastings delivers a "DJ set" that feels so AGGRESSIVELY TARGETED at me that I am actively unsettled

It's true. That's why we vote on things by raising our hands instead of our feet. Although I think the law on that is shifting in some states.
Stand with me, comrades. Stand for freedom.
We are the Pieds de Résistance.
Not a Tarantino fan, huh?

Ooooh you know it’s time for business that’s why they call em my business socks hey
I didn't know Cloud/Tifa vs Cloud/Aerith was a thing
Why would anyone pick Aerith
Like she seems fine
But Tifa? Tifa buff
but even without revealing actual plot details, it's obvious from context that Cloud is definitely crushing on Aerith, while Tifa has an unrequited childhood crush on Cloud
it's very japanese soap opera-ish
Oh okay, that's all very interesting
But counterpoint
Tifa girl with abs??????
Yeah as someone who barely knows anything about FF7 my only experiences were with her in Kingdom Hearts and the internet, and between those two I didn't realize that she apparently has the ability to be like...snarky
Hearing them talk about that on Waypoint was eye-opening
I just snuck out of Aerith's house.
Vincent's backstory is surprisingly critical to much of what happens in 7, but it's hidden in a cave at the very end of the game
Yuffie, I think they have to expand Wutai a lot, because it's hard to believe this single town was able to fight a war against Shinra for as long as they did
I very much remember her as being that way and I've been trying to deconstruct why that's the case ever since I listened to the recent Waypoint
I'm also doing the first half of this which means I've just been messing with mods all morning and now I think I'm finally done. Are you using Forests of Skyrim because it's crazy how different it makes parts of that game feel.
Yuffie and Vincent had a really fun dynamic in Dirge of Cerberus, it's a shame that it's all stuck in Dirge of Cerberus.
Yuffie also had lots of good stuff with Zack in Crisis Core, and I imagine they'll put a lot of the work done there into Remake Wutai.

I mean that's basically how she's portrayed in every appearance outside of FF7 itself.
And just old fashioned cultural osmosis
To be honest while how fans treat aeris is especially gross, I think this happened to most of the cast
Like how cloud was talked about and how I remembered him for over a decade was as the overly silent brooding sad boy, and it wasn’t until a few years ago playing it again that I remembered he has so much more character to him than that
Kind of like coming into EVA in 2019 and wondering who the fuck thought deeply traumatized adolescents were the perfect vector for merchandising everything.
