Elysian: Mirror of Epiphany - latest project now in beta testing!

After 6 years of writing and over 200k words total (!?), I'm happy to announce that my latest project, a Ren'py visual novel called

in fucking credible. I love it

when you hate the newest game, wait five years, then praise it for how great it was

I was put up to this #silenthill #silenthillf

A parody of the TF2 "gentlemen" meme but it's Hinako with a bunch of pills in her mouth and the japanese text "minasama" on the bottom

that said imma go finish the true ending now lol

...easy to put two and two together about what everything "means". And that's not a BAD thing I've come to realize, especially since he balances this out by withholding specific pieces of information from you until your NG+ runs, so there's still plenty of mystery and surprise to be had.

I would also cite the whole "the symbolism is as subtle as a brick to the face" thing but I honestly think it's more a symptom of Ryukishi07's writing than anything else. He tends to focus on expressing characters' thoughts and feelings in his narration and dialogue and it makes it extremely...

I also am not a fan of the lack of anti motion sickness options on the PS5 version compared to SH2 remake, why can't I turn off motion blur it gives me a fucking headache. 🥴

Queenie @flanoirbunny.bsky.social · 8d

in regards to f I do think it has some balancing issues with regards to how hard some parts are compared to others; the UI system makes some things TOO easy by immediately going "hey this is a puzzle solution wink wink!" but then fails to give ANY hints about others

Queenie @flanoirbunny.bsky.social · 8d

I managed to find stuff about HOMECOMING I enjoyed so that ought to tell you how not picky I am lol. and also why is everyone suddenly turning on SH2 remake? last I heard most people were pretty happy with it aside from the padding issues. maybe it's because it's cool to hate on Bloober idk

Queenie @flanoirbunny.bsky.social · 8d

I just read something that said Silent Hill f has "no environmental storytelling". I am wondering if we played the same game here and also I'm glad for once that I'm one of the easier to please SH fans because otherwise I'd be miserable lmfao

Such a fucking cliche greedy corporation trope yeesh 💀

Inspired by this Silent Hill 2 music box I was excited to see but then was deeply disappointed in how cheap and shitty the arrangement of "Promise" is and also THERE'S AN ACTUAL MUSIC BOX THAT PLAYS MUSIC IN THE GAME??? LIKE IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT PUZZLE...

SILENT HILL 2 Metal Music Box "Promise (reprise)"

The Silent Hill 2 Collector’s Edition Metal Music Box is the ultimate way to honor the haunting legacy of the game. Each beautifully crafted box, making it a rare collector’s piece. Experience the eer...

my weirdly specific pet peeve is when they make music boxes for video games but don't use the songs from the game that are ACTUALLY music box pieces

I love my NieR "Grandma" box I got in Akiba but SHADOWLORD IS RIGHT THERE!! IT'S RIGHT THERE DAMN YOU!!!!

idk the Royal Dansk tins give off real Grandmacore vibes

Ah yes, my favorite game composer, Akita Yamaha #silenthill

A discord message that reads:

Also I can tell EXACTLY which music tracks were made by Akita Yamaha and which were made by dai and xaki lmao. I expected Silent Hill mixed with When They Cry and that’s literally what we got. It’s great
*AKIRA YAMAOKA
fuck auto correct it’s clearly racist

Queenie @flanoirbunny.bsky.social · 11d

Even the soundtrack I can tell which stuff is Yamaoka’s and which is dai and xaki’s lmao. Also the Tekken guy did music too? I couldn’t pinpoint his I wasn’t super familiar with his work

Queenie @flanoirbunny.bsky.social · 11d

Ending 2 of Silent Hill f is get and the more I play the more I realize I expected Silent Hill vs When They Cry and that’s literally what we got. And it’s great! It’s not quite one or the other but has recognizable highlights of both.

Queenie @flanoirbunny.bsky.social · 12d

and that's why Ryukishi07's the GOAT (okay maybe not "GOAT" but he's a damn good writer when he puts his back into it)

a man in a white shirt is saying that 's why he 's the goat and the goat is behind him .

Alt: a man in a white shirt is saying "That's why he's the GOAT! THE GOAT!!"

I had a similar hell of a time with Hellblade's "line things up to find the pattern" puzzles my spacial reasoning must be busted lmao

Queenie @flanoirbunny.bsky.social · 12d

Honestly I have the hardest time with the simple task of "there's supposed to be a thing here, find it" in video games like HOW DID I MISS THAT WHOLE ASS ATTIC AREA IN THE DARK SHRINE DURING MY FIRST PLAYTHROUGH I could have gotten an inventory upgrade a lot sooner ffs

Queenie @flanoirbunny.bsky.social · 13d

Also an important side character being canonically autistic wasn’t in my bingo card for the Silent Hill franchise but there you go! It does explain a lot of what they go through too so it’s not just thrown in there
