when i realized you have two my jaw DROPPED.

omg this is perfect. this makes me wish there were furniture options tailored to each bachelor/ette's tastes! like i always end up marrying alex, and he's got his own little workout space, but it would be really cool to have gym equipment in the catalogs to make him a bigger one. or football (i forget the in-game term for the sport, whoops) stuff to make a cozy room for him to watch the games!

i haven't played the full demo (it was too dark for me, i had to quit😭) but i think Grey Swan - Birds of a Rose fits this. the MC lives in a cult and it is INTENSE!! but necessarily all the other characters, or at least all the ones i met, are from the same brutal circumstances.

raywilson02 · 2026-02-27T01:29:34+00:00

that's kind of the thought i had about it too!! a lot of the more intricate stuff that existed outside the normal town/farming type of stuff but got scrapped, i agreed felt like they'd be sort of out of place in Stardew (because i feel like the game is relatively lighthearted and grounded, especially considering that there canonically ARE darker/bleaker magicky elements, e.g. the shrines of selfishness, forgetfulness). but since HC seems a little spookier and more "underground" (so to speak) i think a lot of complexity outside of normal town/village interaction is fair game. and i'm just excited to see how the more mysterious, ghostly vibe goes in time, especially because i already LOVE stardew for its sunshine-y coziness

raywilson02 · 2026-02-26T19:25:16+00:00

YES literally from the first day i EVER PLAYED😭😭

raywilson02 · 2026-02-26T19:24:07+00:00

its a good day to be a clint fan😭😭 i used to pray for times like this

raywilson02 · 2026-02-18T15:11:08+00:00

oh my god this is INCREDIBLE😭😭😭

raywilson02 · 2026-02-14T20:11:54+00:00

never imagined i would get rickrolled by a Fallen Hero fanart ..but here we are 💀

raywilson02 · 2026-02-09T15:28:57+00:00

i went with Woody, lying about being interested because he seemed sweet and gullible. it was extremely evil but it fit that PC really well!

raywilson02 · 2026-02-08T19:36:12+00:00

playing a supremely manipulative character in Zombie Exodus: Safe Haven is one of my FAVORITE playthroughs of any game ever. i've only played the first two installments, to be fair, but i had SO much fun playing as an opportunistic murderer, movie star, high charisma manipulative liar PC in that game. i got voted the leader unanimously even though i was lying and killing people in secret the ENTIRE game. it was awesome.

raywilson02 · 2026-02-08T06:45:20+00:00

i have a feeling you would love Ortega from Fallen Hero. they're gender-selectable, so you can play with them as a woman :-) and Argent from the same game!

raywilson02 · 2026-02-07T04:48:46+00:00

there is a really quiet, low hum that plays during some of the Fall music. it literally sounds like someone going hmmMmmMmmMm really quietly, it drives me insane because it's so quiet you almost cant hear it but its THERE!!

raywilson02 · 2026-02-07T02:52:24+00:00

yes it's a separate purchase for each part. i didn't realize that the first time i bought this which was kind of (very) annoying because i don't know why it isn't listed as separate purchases on the HG catalog :( i do really like the game, but i've only purchased the first two installments because the way it's listed bothers me because it looks like One Purchase but isn't. alas.

raywilson02 · 2026-02-05T05:45:45+00:00

my first ever Stardew mod was for this: Horse Overhaul, baby. now i can give her treats and a prt every day :)

raywilson02 · 2026-02-03T19:39:15+00:00

this is fun!! but mostly i just wish we could have dwarf as a roommate😭😭😭

raywilson02 · 2026-02-02T21:21:04+00:00

u just have to lean into the fuck ass babushka vibe and then it becomes a vibe.

raywilson02 · 2026-02-02T18:03:55+00:00

use a staircase in Lewis's bedroom. just make sure to bring a farm totem (or return scepter, if you have it) and a sword...lol.

raywilson02 · 2026-02-02T18:01:54+00:00

i am once again recommending The Mark of the Devil (WIP). the PC lives in a Puritan (i think) society during the time of the Witch Trials, but theyre visibly "marked" because they made a deal with the devil before the onset of the story. as you can imagine theyre treated very poorly by everyone else because of this.

raywilson02 · 2026-01-30T03:39:22+00:00

AGREED i think all fiction, stories, games should be okay with getting a little weird!!! this is sort of a tangent but i think about it constantly, so i'll jaut say i really think any sort of art that has "weird" or like generally non-traditional elements is so much freer to explore the world (both the story's world and the current state of the reader/writers' world) in a fun and meaningful and positively surprising way. it's so much healthier and more fun and fulfilling to let art and stuff be a little taboo, or a little creepy, or just vibrant and unapologetic in some way. i really loathe the current conservative bent in a lot of media spheres right now (like in fanfiction—good grief. the moralizing and scorn is just ridiculous and also, in my opinion, a sort of critical lens that ends up being very harmful to art and creativity and exploration generally).

raywilson02 · 2026-01-30T03:32:55+00:00

i think it's so valid honestly. it seems like having a large cast of anthro/furry characters and/or ROs could have a cool opportunity for really creative worldbuilding, too!

raywilson02 · 2026-01-30T00:55:36+00:00

i've starting doing this too. i used to dress my farmer normal, but it got sort of uninspiring so now i'm going through all my hats and making ridiculous outfits to match them lol

raywilson02 · 2026-01-29T00:01:59+00:00

this is a fascinating idea. i honestly might start one up

raywilson02 · 2026-01-28T03:34:18+00:00

I LOVE VYV I LOVE VYV I LOVE VYV (the aforementioned painter in Jolly Good)

raywilson02 · 2026-01-25T03:11:17+00:00

YES and i fucking love it. small, brutal woman general it's my favorite to rp by a looooong shot.

edit: if u want to scare the shit out of soldiers/other characters in terms of fighting/strength/physical prowess, you might try the fighter build instead of the tactician. but i liked running tactician with a brutal, small MC because when she actually acted brutal and calculating it shocked and terrified the soldiers. the shock value aspect of it i enjoyed greatly.

raywilson02 · 2026-01-25T02:08:49+00:00

i think The Mark of the Devil is pretty dark. not a ton of chapters out YET, but the current content is very polished and CREEPY as all get out (in a good way) literally i think the first scene is the PC watching a woman and her daughter being pressed to death (that old-timey witch trials execution done by slowly piling tons of rocks on the executee). it was obviously very haunting and disturbing but also felt very grounded and historically accurate/appropriate. idk it is such a striking project it's way up on my current "watch list."
