I don't have much to add to the conversation, I just wanted to stick my head in and say I'm loving this LP, and you're doing great work with it.

What trilogy is this, Sibyl? It sounds familiar.

I think I've finally hit the end of this monster of a post. I'm too exhausted at this point to offer any kind of neat tie up, but I will say that I think I can be done playing coy in the next update and get to the very core of what I believe Dark Souls is about. To be fair, it took me an embarassingly long time to realize it myself. So look forward to a story about something terrible and something wonderful.

I don't think I've ever been as excited for a post as I am for this one before.

quote:

"Lur[ing] more victims into her web" is an interesting choice of metaphor. If we assume it to be less figurative than it appears, a connection to the last section of Tseldora suddenly emerges.

gently caress. That seems so obvious now!

:psyduck:

Um. Okay. Wow. When you spell things out like that and put everything together...

I am transgender myself, and I am also a multi-time cancer survivor so um...wow. This whole update has me thinking all kinds of thoughts and kind of has my mind in a complete state of shock right now?

I need some time to think about all of this and try to straighten my thoughts into something legible, but...yeah. I'll be coming back to this once I'm able to make sense of how I'm feeling right now.

Good update. This is a good, good thread.

I just wanted to chime in after finding this via the crosspost in the trans thread. I almost overwhelmed at all this work and it really resonates with me, I guess I’m just very grateful for what seems like an exhaustive/exhausting deep dive into a series that’s always meant a lot to me, and how it looks gazing through a trans lens at it was the last thing I expected, so thank you very much for all of this.

Can I get a link to that thread, if you don't mind?

So...I almost wonder if it would be worth like, looking at the credits for early Final Fantasy games and cross-referencing them with the credits of some of From's output, and seeing if there's any crossover there.

So I'm genuinely curious: What caused a ton of people who have never posted in this thread before to suddenly pop up over the past week and decide to just start trashing the hell out of the thread and Sibyl?

Missed you, Sibyl. Glad to see you’re back!

Unfortunately I guess I’m going to have to duck out of this thread for now, until I get a chance to play Elden Ring.
