Even though it doesnโ€™t seem to have been โ€œhyperfixationโ€ material for me (tho tbf the hyperfixation part of my brain seems to be malfunctioning lately), I still think OFF is very good and I like it. Much to think about. I super get it now. I can now recognize its DNA in the games it inspired :)

Feels weird to say about a game that was trying something new, but as a whole the game still felt generic (to me)? The story and characters feltโ€ฆ empty, idk. I appreciate the gameplay idea, but it unfortunately didnโ€™t interest me enough to make up for the rest. MAN I wish I liked it more, sorry lol

I was just reminded that I got to the part right before the end of Echoes of Wisdom, stopped, and then forgot to keep playing lol. Iโ€™ve been meaning to finish it, but. man. I donโ€™t dislike it, but the further I got, the more I was likeโ€ฆ there really isnโ€™t much substance here after all, huh. โ€ฆoh.

btw Iโ€™m kinda put off (lol) by OFF fans bc Iโ€™ve seen some say โ€œoh the entire remake soundtrack is So Badโ€ and likeโ€ฆ? But all the songs Iโ€™ve heard are great? Are these peopleโ€ฆ okay?? I get being upset that the og songs canโ€™t be used, but rejecting every new song bc of thatโ€ฆ imagine being so joyless ๐Ÿ’€

this song kinda rules by the way. obviously not saying that just because Toby Fox made it or anything silly like that, doesnโ€™t affect my opinion either way, I didnโ€™t even realize this one was a Toby Fox song until I looked it up lol. anyway I think itโ€™s cool. โ€ฆalso it sort of reminds me of PMD :)

At the beginning of OFF I had a hard time properly vibing with it for some reason, but now that Iโ€™ve gotten through Zone 2 I think I can say for sure that Iโ€™m into it now. i mean donโ€™t ask me to coherently explain whatโ€™s going on but Iโ€™m invested anyway lmao

Ohh I get it now, I sorta misread your first reply my bad haha. Uhhhh. Maybe?? I know almost nothing about the game and I donโ€™t have a good grasp of whatโ€™s going on yet, I couldnโ€™t say anything for sure lol

yeaa itโ€™s out :) the demo didnโ€™t grab me as much as I hoped, but I saw the full game was on sale recently, so I got it anyway bc I want to understand its appeal and influence (and to get more familiar with rpg maker game design in general, for reasons lol)

also sorry, idk what you mean by bad guys?

Screenshot of the OFF remake game. Examining a switch. The Batter says, "The switch is now OFF."

(yeah I'm sure I'm the only person to point at the screen and say "ha ha whoa... 'off'... like... it's like the thing...." I'm so original)

as far as Iโ€™ve been able to tell, Sonic fans probably wouldnโ€™t even be happy with solid gold, so you should just make whatever you want lol

Itโ€™s probably fine (?) but still, I just hope itโ€™s not a symptom of some horrible brain thing or something, I canโ€™t have anything be wrong with me when Iโ€™ve finally reached a point in my life where Iโ€™ve specifically decided that I want to live LOL

sure hope I donโ€™t have one of those weird big vertigo dizzy attacks again any time soon, been feeling a little weird for a couple weeks and itโ€™s making me worried lmao. Really donโ€™t like that this is even a recurring issue that I have to think about man ๐Ÿ—ฟ๐Ÿ—ฟ

But tbh ainโ€™t no way Iโ€™d do that well even if I did try, the game kinda hates me LOL

For a long time I kinda gave up on trying to make original stories because I felt like I just wasnโ€™t very creative. Still donโ€™t think thatโ€™s entirely wrong, but yโ€™know, I think my main issue with creativity is that Iโ€™ve been too cowardly to risk making something โ€œdumb.โ€ and also perfectionism lmao

I like how I was supposed to lower my expectations and keep it tiny, but I immediately started mentally elaborating on this basic idea way too much for some reason until I remembered that Iโ€™m not yet capable of executing game ideas of any substance right now LOL. it shouldnโ€™t be that DEEP!! STOP!!!

ive heard this game is bad. repetitive, tumblr-ass writing, and get this: it has pronouns

After age 12, I basically lost the ability to be normal and have friendships, especially since there was almost no one around me that shared any of my interests, so thatโ€™s probably at least part of why Iโ€™m so broken and clueless with any form of socializing now LMAO ๐Ÿ—ฟ Sorry for Still being Like This

Stories centered around kids/teenagers having really good and close and normal friendships with each other always make me a little bit sad, because Iโ€™m just like, man. Maaann. Why couldnโ€™t at least a little of that have been me at that age LOL ๐Ÿ’€
