It's time to post! For today's blog post, I will be talking about routes in Date Everything. Much like other games in this genre, choosing different options will get you different endings. But unlike most dating sims, Date Everything actually has three routes for every character. These are the Love, Hate, and Friendship endings. Hate endings are achieved by either failing to help a character with their problems, or by refusing to be just friends with them at the end of their route. Love or Friendship endings can be achieved by successfully completing a route and then choosing to either date the character, or stay friends with them. Sometimes picking the wrong options will make it so you finish a route successfully, but can only be friends with the character and nothing else. You can change a Hate ending to a Friendship ending, but you can't change a Hate or Friendship ending to a Love ending. I think this is the thing that bothers me, because sometimes it isn't obvious what you did wrong to get the ending in the first place. But for the most part, you can usually at least achieve a Friendship ending if nothing else. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about the game Cup Heroes. This game is free to play, and can be played on mobile, computer, or console. This game is a standard combat wave game where you defeat enemies to reach the end of the chapter. Each chapter end will have a short story cutscene for you to watch, and you can get a new power up after each wave to prepare for the boss at the end. Each power up is chosen from your standard deck, and you buy them with the balls you earn by defeating monsters. You don't get very many after each wave, but you can put them through multipliers to increase your rewards to buy higher level cards. Some cards can even be bought more than once to stack their power. You start out with one hero, but as the game progresses, you can unlock more heroes, gear, and even pets to help you on your journey. If you fail a chapter, you still keep everything you earned up to that point, which means you can continue to unlock more things and level up your heroes even if you get stuck on a level. I recommend this game, and I've been having some fun playing it. The game uses a pixel art style, but the models used for the chat boxes and hero upgrade sections are clearly anime inspired. As always, I'll be including a picture of the game below. Enjoy!

It's time to post! Recently, there have been a lot more games and animations with the anime art style. Even though anime used to be a small community, now it's everywhere. This is a good thing for anime fans, but it also means a lot of other things that aren't anime get pulled into the anime fandom. This happens when people make animations or fan art for other things in the anime art style. It can be difficult to know what is and isn't an anime, and a lot of the popular things in the anime fandom aren't even from Japan anymore. With so many fans of other things and so many things other than anime in the community, it's getting hard to tell what anime even is anymore. I know this happens a lot because some people don't like anime, but like the art style. This isn't fair to real anime fans though, who are just trying to find more people to share their interests with. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! In Animal Crossing New Horizons, there are a few clothing items that you can't actually wear or own. However, there are also furniture items you can't own. For example, there's a special pink dreamy bear on the black dreamy shelf that you can't own. Villagers also own clothes you can't own yourself, and you can buy accessories from Nook's Cranny that can't be worn because they're just display items. I think this is a bit strange. Usually when games include stuff like this, it's because you can own or wear it yourself. But that isn't the case in Animal Crossing New Horizons. I can't help but wonder why this is. It doesn't really bother me, it's just confusing. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Why do so many anime fans call Avatar The Last Airbender an anime? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! If you've been in the anime community for a while, you've probably seen the argument between the fans who think Avatar The Last Airbender is an anime, and the ones who think it isn't. The show isn't an anime, so why is this an argument at all? Well, it's because the show was actually anime inspired. It wasn't made to be an anime, it was just inspired by anime. A lot of people think this is close enough, so they say it is an anime. However, I don't think it's wrong to just call it a cartoon instead. The creators never called it an anime, and it isn't really considered one by its fans. But if some fans think the art style is close enough to be an anime, I think they have a right to their opinion. This show is so close to using an anime art style that I think it's alright either way. Avatar The Last Airbender has introduced a lot of people to anime, so it's fine if people want to consider it one. I know I've said otherwise in the past, but that's just because I personally see it as a cartoon instead of an anime. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

New day, new post! Since I recently talked about the bad side of the indie games fandom, I'd like to talk about the good side today. There's actually a lot of good fans in the fandom. Having a large fan base can encourage creators to make more content, make content faster, and continue working to improve the game. Sometimes it even encourages creators to make merchandise for their games. Not only this, but more fans means more people will be interested in looking into the games, too. Fans also make Wikia pages and fan content, which makes it easier for new fans to learn more about the games. It's also a good way to talk to others who like the same games, and fans often fund indie games financially. So even though I was harsh in my previous post, I was only talking about the toxic minority. Most fans are much more supportive of small creators. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

 It's time to post! I think there's a serious problem in the indie games fandom. More than once a promising game has been scrapped, ended, or abandoned entirely because of their fans. Fans are very disrespectful to independent creators, and they often harass creators in various ways. They insult them, beg for more content, send them death threats, and in extreme cases they even dox or stalk the creators of the games. This is absolutely ridiculous. Firstly, this isn't an acceptable thing to do to any innocent creator. But secondly, the people doing this are ruining it for everyone else. Everyone knows full well if they received the same treatment, they would fold like a wet paper bag. So why is it okay to do it to others? The answer is: it isn't. A lot of these people are children who often shouldn't be in the community in the first place, but it's even worse when it's full grown adults doing it. Creators are people, and if you wouldn't be able to handle something, then you shouldn't do that thing to someone else. So many people on the internet are rude and immature, and it's time for them to either grow up or leave so everyone else can enjoy things. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I wanted to talk about this because I was recently looking into Homicipher again, which had a situation where the creator had to step away because of the fans; which isn't fair for everyone else who was behaving. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
