me when i create a robot whose supposed to be sentient and not an order-following hooligan but the code i gave it winds up being contradictory to its orders causing mass confusion within the system resulting in said robot going violently insane . hahaha! oopsies… ^_^
For those who don't know this is what my brain looks like :33 3
I painted 03-aaliyah from armored core 4 and for answer
[ LINE ARK OPERATOR ] : DaAaAmn, are we doing any damage? ...PRIMAL ARMOR?!?! First we have to break down that Primal Armor!
I GOT CHROME HEAD FIND IT, POUND IT I GOT STEEL HEART TURN IT, BEAT IT
[ SERENE HAZE ] : We've confirmed all targets destroyed. Mission complete. Well done. Almost perfect. But don't get too high on yourself yet, rookie. These enemies were nothing to write home about.
from Armored Core: For Answer Original Soundtrack (2008)
Terraria players will quite cheerfully say "I need to fight the Sharpener of Pencils so I can mine Murderite Ore and craft Sky Biter Arrows so I can farm the Twilight of Roast Turkey for a Badger Rifle or a Rebozoblazer, then farm the Prince of Silence for Silent Wisps until I have enough to make a full set of Silence Armour and the Silence Bowler Hat, at which point I'll fish for Cabbagefins and Rectangular Sardines to make Nightmare and Sardineskin Potions, then kill the Guardian of Infinite Souls once I have an arena ready, and after that "
I’m glad AC6 has a memorable cast.
Handler “on my mother’s name, this is about a FRIEND not me” Walter, Cinder “names her custom made AC parts after food” Carla (who can get her bitcoin keys stolen in a mission if you take too long), Snail the single most hateable man in the world, Pater who yells “YAY PROMOTION FOR ME!” if you kill his caring superior in front of him, Iguazu the malding Yamcha, Rusty Your Buddy, Michigan who somehow manages to be incredibly military and yet likable by virtue of being a funny G.I. Joe ass dude (who knows EVERYONE under him by name), and the menagerie of usual Armored Core crooks and freaks that inhabit the Arena, and let’s not forget the utterly suspect ALL MIND who keeps saying very concerning shit and sort of acknowledges you’re in ng+ and wants your help in creating an ethically* sourced, community built Nineball. Even the playable character is an identity thief and the world’s okayest lobotomite, who gets attacked specifically for stealing an identity AND for being an okay lobotomite, separately and in different situations.
And here’s where I make a special mention to Ayre, the girl living in your head, who is… A normal ass person for the most part and just sort of hangs out with you and wants to spend time together. There’s also the voices of the legion, but otherwise, she’s just A Person, and even feels bad asking you to do things if she can’t pay you. In the middle of the big corpo war, Ayre is like “Raven, did you know? There’s lore :) I hope that was interesting”. When the voice possessing your hollow bloodless head is the most normal and well adjusted person in the setting, you know you have something good going on.
I’m very sorry, Laura Bailey, but my pal Thermidor asked me to kill you and your friend.
"Natsuki! I just discovered that there is a whole genre of manga with my name! Perhaps I will finally try some, you seem to have a few of the titles I saw online right here in the closet--"
"YURI, NO--"
Shout out to Dwarf Fortress for introducing “taken by a fey mood” into my lexicon, because it’s hands down the best way I’ve found to describe what being under the thrall of a hyperfixation feels like.
