Because tumblr’s been dead and I’ve had little motivation to post or look through it these days, I sadly never really found the chance or interest to liveblog my playthrough of Shadows of Valentia.
So instead, have this ten second video that sums up my whole experience in a nutshell.
mostly because I think Casca signing the line “speak, hands, for me” would be cool
It would also have a cool effect on the post-stabbing scene, where Antony is shaking people’s bloody hands. You’d have the conspirators signing about how good their reasons were with the very blood-soaked instruments they just used to kill Caesar, and then Antony would shut each of them up temporarily by shaking their hands
I love how everyone agrees that 2016, specifically, was when the world jumped the shark, and while we all acknowledge that things have gotten worse and worse every year to the point where 2016 seems tame, THAT was the tipping point. When 2016 was happening we all knew that we were watching the world become silly, and none of us really knew *how* we knew that, but we did. Stuff happened and we just knew that things would be silly from that point on and we were absolutely right.
Actually my favourite part of this was how we all started by joking that 2016 was a really strange year that we would never be able to explain to anyone who didn’t live through it, and then the slowly mounting panic as the year stretched towards its end and 2017 came and we just had to accept that it wasn’t a weird year, the world was just like this now.
“Grandma, how did the world fall? What went wrong?”
“Well you see Jimmy it all started with this FUCKINGgorilla”
