RE9 very good. Goddamn.

Just when I hit my limit of being terrified as Grace I get a big beefy palette cleanse of Leon roundhouse kicking zombies through windows and blasting away with a shotgun. Then, back to OH GOD OH NO OH FUCK WHY πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

Perfectly balanced.

When she fist showed up I just paused. Set down the controller. And walked away like "no. no absolutely not. not right this second."

It's so masterfully done and you can tell the showrunner is a huge fan of the books. Calling the walkers "Others" in that one quip is just πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

Ten minutes till Resident Evil 9 and my brain is like

The herbs were hung by the item box with care,
In hopes that more handgun ammo soon would be there.
The survivors were nestled all snug in their bedsβ€”
Well, β€œsafe rooms,” with typewriters clacking instead.

I definitely do! It's the lack of cruel cynicism that really makes it so enjoyable

this story being written by a person who considered ending their own life once is a really impactful fucking thing

Anywhere can be paradise as long as you have the will to live.

You are alive, so you will always have the chance to be happy.

As long as the sun, moon, and the Earth exist.

Everything will be all right.

evangelion may be bleak as hell but it's also remarkably hopeful as well

I wish my full time job could be playing Pathfinder πŸ₯Ή I give so many f**ks about my characters, other PCs, and the NPCs, stories, and world, especially in @sphynxian.bsky.social’s games.

Yeah all the shots before the final are Blender and the last is a huge set they built. I'm really stoked to see how all of this translates!

My favorite thing in this teaser is the contrast of reality and artificiality. Having the "real world" shots be made entirely in Blender and the "artificiality" of the Backrooms final shot be a practical set is πŸ‘ŒπŸ»
