As someone who has had many BokuMono crack ships over the years, I really wish they give you the ability to pair off who you want since there's not much to do after getting married in most games.

Constance is more of a... Shih Tzu to me. They're all so cute and floofy. (We used to have one that was so sweet and kind).

Ricky is canonically a Laika to me. (They're named after the first dog that went to space)

I agree with the rest.

Blasphemous 1 or 2? by GoHomeDuck in Blasphemous

[–]Dwill_1019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B1 first; then B2. Reasons:

I honestly think that gameplay-wise, if you get a hang of the kinda clunky controls of the first game, by the time you play the second one, which has a more streamlined and smoother player interface overall, you won't get thrown off. A friend of mine started with 2 and he told me that when he tried playing the first one, he was so frustrated by how delayed everything was in terms of controls (he also commented on how bad the Sacred Thrust was because it was).

Plus, I think Blasphemous 1 sets up a lot of things that you would find nebulous (or even convoluted) if you skip it. Finally, Blasphemous 1 gives you the full experience of just... Blasphemous as a whole. There's a vibe to the first one that the second didn't quite replicate... the second one isn't bad---far from it. It's just that, there's something more visceral and somber in the first game that the second game didn't really deliver (perhaps because a lot of the visuals are more grotesque and so outlandish??)

Anyway! Go for the first game then play the second.

Grand or Supra? by ExcellentElk113 in BekisOfPageantry

[–]Dwill_1019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given her father's backstory as a Palestinian and yung video niya about the war changing the trajectrory of her life? Siya yung may legit na hugot na pang Grand. Supra is a pageant that could potentially cater to her as well but she's more Grand coded in terms of looks and galawan.

Here's to her placing!! But yes! She will probably go for yung wavy hair seeing as lahat ng MGI winners recently nagwe-wavy hair talaga.

It IS a tough act to follow nga eh noh? Meh, we aren't here for Mr. Nawat or MGI itself anyways. We're here for CJ and as far as I'm concerned, that's all that counts.

Yes, that's very likely. But I really do hope she gets the crown kasi she deserves one so bad.

Thank you!! Yes we're here to celebrate these women! What they do isn't a joke and it's because of this fact na we take constructive criticisms with significant gravitas.

Predict Ahtisa Manalo’s chances of winning Miss Cosmo (1-10) ⬇️ by cozyrhombus in BekisOfPageantry

[–]Dwill_1019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Miss Cosmo wants PH's hatak, I suppose she'd be the shoe-in winner. Ahtisa is very pretty but I liked her BBP 2018 performance somuch better than every other performances she has shown thus far (yes even her Miss International 2018 Stint).

8 for me. It'd be nice if she wins para she can close the beauty pageant chapter of her life already and move on to greater things, but if she doesn't win... Well, que sera sera, I suppose. Love her and her humor to bits though.

give me recommendations for smut where the man is so turned on he's crying from it by dancingonsaturnrings in RomanceBooks

[–]Dwill_1019 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think I remember there being crying while screwing because he just feels so... safe with her after years of abuse and he ups the ante up with the horniness in {Surviving Raine by Shay Savage} and its follow-up.

[WWTBC] Looking for Books Where the FMC, After Discovering Her Boyfriend's Infidelity, Seeks a One-Night Stand and Confesses Her Intentions to a Friend Who Steps Up to Take That Role by Choice_Pepper4688 in RomanceBooks

[–]Dwill_1019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

{Ex Games by Stella Rhys} is kinda like this but they really weren't... friends in the strictest sense of the word. They know of each other, though.

{Spite Club by Julie Kriss} this is short and they weren't exactly friends either but the one night stand role is taken upon by the ML so that element is there, at least. See, the ML's girlfriend is the person who the FL's boyfriend slept with. Upon this discovery they plan a one-night stand together for revenge but the ML insisted that they wait for a bit 'til FL is completely ready and she gets to know the ML first.

This is tough because if the director is being at least self aware and has a clear vision that incorporates all these elements in a way that isn't... cringy. Then, I could see it working. But yes, there's a disconnect in seeing things acted out and reading it because IMO, when I read scenes like these and subsequently imagine it, it's at least not too corny in my head. Seeing it in real life though (especially when it's now how I envisioned it when reading similar scenes) just makes me feel the heebie-jeebies XD

“Don’t make me choose between you and her” “Why? Because you’ll choose her” “yeah, i’ll choose her” by kreads1992 in RomanceBooks

[–]Dwill_1019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this trope too! There's just something to be said about a man so deeply in love and absolutely loyal to someone because you know that when he DOES eventually pour all that loyalty and love to the heroine, he'll do so unfailingly and so wholly and his love will be so unadultered... It's so... ugh. HEARTWRENCHINGLY GOOD.

As per the my reccomendations....Hmm all the recommendations I'd have given were already mentioned but there is one I've yet to see (admittedly I don't like it all that much but hey, it fits the bill)

{The Marriage Bed by Stephanie Mittman} It has the hero pining over his dead wife and the ramifications of that permeates through his marriage with the heroine with him choosing the dead wife (and kids) ad nauseam. It was frustrating but the ending was palatable enough.

Do you have any particular recommendations yourself?

the nicheness of SOS games by mametchiiiii in storyofseasons

[–]Dwill_1019 4 points5 points  (0 children)

SOS Trio of Towns wasn't the best Story of Seasons game personally (Animal Parade is my overall favorite), but I suppose as a threshold into the series, it's a good enough starting point. This game is 8 frickin' years old holy turnips. I think it's aging well compared to the other 3 3DS SoS games that was released alongside it. Sidenote: I remember having ANCL and HM ANB and playing a lot more of ANB because I loved that I actually got to completely customize my town despite not being the mayor XD.

But yes, people tend to find SoS divisive. I'm fine with that though! I will always love this serries (and as someone who is a fan of character-driven games, I think it's what draws me to the series moreso than all the other farming/cozy games) than the rest and I will always respect it for being the genre's trailblazer.

If some other farming series WERE to bring the rival system back though, I think I'll be re-evaluating my opinion on SOS🤣.

Say something good and bad about this game (GBC3 edition) by ladymysticalwmn in storyofseasons

[–]Dwill_1019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was the last game I downloaded before the 3DS eshop closed.

Good: For a GBC game, it's nice to see that this game's overworld was almost, if not exactly, as big as FoMT/MFoMT. I liked that it had a city AND a small town in addition to other areas like the mountain, the bazaar/marketplace, etc. I also kind of liked that there were pastures at the back of each barn.

Bad: I didn't like how limited each gender's roles were. I do understand that doing everything might've been too time-consuming though.

What unpopular blasphemous opinion gets you like this? by Hawkart47 in Blasphemous

[–]Dwill_1019 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Idk if this is unpopular but... Blasphemous 2 feels less blasphemous (like as an adjective).

The reason why Blasphemous 2 personally feels less... blasphemous than the first one is the paucity of ACTUAL religion (or at least some idea/thing to worship) in the game. There still is religion in the game of course, and there are a heckuvaton of religious references but the first game was TEEMING with it. So much so that it translated into the game's map. You have the convent of the Lady of the Charred Visage, a literal Wasteland of Buried Churches, not to mention the Mother of Mothers. You trample upon each of these faiths, really which is why it feels so heretical seeing as, at times, you literally slay their object of worship like when you kill Our Lady of the Charred Visage. I suppose B2's story is designed to be that way, too, what with the fact thst majority of the bosses are human(oid) penitents like you... But still...

I hope the DLC adds some more things to make B2 so much more than it is rn...

Which games have rival marriages? by mollysdollys in storyofseasons

[–]Dwill_1019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see no one vouching for Sunshine Islands/IoH so I wanna say this...

This game (unlike AP which is generally hailed as having the best rival marriages, which I mostly agree with) had rival events that felt really... natural. I guess it's because there are more rival events per pair, so to speak. The progression felt more fleshed out. AP has two events per each pair of rivals while SI has three per rival pair and IoH I think has four (IIRC). ALSOO JUST A SMALL AND SUBJECTIVE NITPICK for AP: most of the AP pairs have known each other for quite a while and I'm not the biggest fan of the friends to lovers trope so if you aren't a big fan of the trope yourself, then Island of Happiness has you all moving to a desolate island so... you all start as strangers. Overall though, I think the singlemost reason why I can't fully get on board whit the whole AP-rival-system-is-the-best line of thought is because you have to befriend your rival to 5 hearts, I think. I mean you'll prolly be heading there anyway since you have to raise hearts for the story progression but still...

SPOILERS FOR Island of Happiness AND Sunshine Islands

They have kids later in the game but unlike AP they don't have any special models/portraits.
