I watched it. stylistically good, interesting contradictions of the disney ethos of what's indubitably good and wholesome. did I ever post about how the Magic Kingdom is a metaphor for the capitalist journey to the american dream, or is that well-known??
Did you ever listen to the Coca-Cola musicals? I think Adeline linked them years ago. "American Heritage" is hard to top, but The Grip of Leadership is pretty consistent, apart from "I Hear America Singing", which is very bad. People Power is just a bland imitation of hip youth culture, for the most part, but "The Real World of Coffee" would fit in any joyless game area, and the "People Power" instrumentals would work well in a sort of They Live city street scene
ahaha, the other one! no, I never heard of them but they're fantastic. people think of mcdonalds when they think of globalism because coca cola's already been accepted as an element

still not sure if tonyalunchtime is a real person or just a bot that returns google images of 'monsters' or something (dragon quest monsters, monster party, monster in my pocket)

 
plastic monsters that come in literal bags of trash that must be cleansed when opened.

does anyone know of a site or something that has
text dumps of older pc rpgs? i'm really
interested in weird text dumps.
 
this is the one from Dragon Warrior for the NES -

my favorite line is:

"Who touches me?"
"I see nothing, nor can I hear."

I don't know if there's a dedicated text dump site but every now and then people put text dumps up on gamefaqs or whatever.  I've looked into making text dumps myself before but it was more complicated than I wanted to deal with.  I really, really want a text dump of Monster Rancher Battle Card because that game's dialogue is the most stilted gameboy nonsense ever.

argh I just had the most amazing dream. It was Metal Gear Solid 2 (again? what's with that game) and you get this item called ATTRACT or something? (not the real word just a substitute) and you throw it and this digital playstation 2 pixie dust comes out really trippy looking and it's somewhere between a VR sequence and dream sequence. First one was just a dinosaur comes and kills you (FISSION MAILED TIME PARADOX) but the second one was with some kids shit shit can't remember I dunno but they start out they're having a birthday party or something (edit: oh yeah this is also in the shell where vamp kills everyone. Same structure as that room but with like red carpeting and stuff. lol maybe like twin peaks dream sequence look) but then you do something to upset this one girl and the kids turn on you like some children of the corn horror movie evil kid shit. Also not sure if they had glowing eyes or just were acting really weird and unnatural like that youtube video above. But yeah they kill you or something Next one argh fading fast next one is like some huge aquarium thing several stories high an aquarium for like snakes and lizards and stuff though and I dunno you're somehow looking at the different aquariums floating around and then a huge lizard eats you and you're arguing with it while being digested. Like 'we're more civilized than that we don't eat things alive, and we put things on top of other things (as in plates). And I dunno you keep arguing with it until FISSION MAILED TIME PARADOX like you hear a gurgle or something and then you're dead. There was a castlevania ripoff too but it wasn't too interesting. One thing it had a staircase that kept zigzagging so your simon belmont dude kept turning back and forth doing the stair climbing animation. Then something like WHAT WOULD BE IN SNAKE'S HOUSE but I can't remember anything about it. But basically Snake in suburbia buying a lot of useless consumerism crap

Then I had a false wakeup where I wanted to like email Kojima or something because it's better than anything he would've come up with. But I wake up in my house and for some reason these perfect unnatural TV looking people are in my house and I run away because wtf. We also have a boat in the driveway for no reason? I also wanted to do sound design for metal gear games for some reason

sorry if post is a little illegible I was trying to stay in between sleeping/waking state and since I can't just BEAM MIND IMAGE over the internet and describe it adequately maybe my word choices and stuff will be entertaining

watching catherine i kept getting the feeling they'd get frozen while talking at some point and the world would fall apart around them but ultimately it was a whole series of lingering dread and i wanted to plunge myself into darkness
very glad to have watched it A+

most games are like already just a bunch of self-assured nonsensical systems kinda slamming into each other and i rly wish more games were blatantly about zipping across nauseating geometry and crashing into new Dream Zones without trying to mask it. when they invent technology to beam your mind-zones to videogamerealm you will have to make the sacrifice and sleep for eternity, draining all yr dreams for the entertainment of the dreadful, depressed masses.

hey now!
 
i hope that (un)intentionally oppressive and disarming games with (non)deliberately cultivated disconnections from the player and their reality become more popular in the future - personally i would be completely happy with one of my hobbies being the consumption and recreation of completely purposeless, hideously fucking bizarre trash dimensions, worlds with a corporate agenda or built to satisfy some single person's unknowable, idiosyncratic urge.
 
oh that is one of my hobbies already. actually, until i typed that out, i didn't know why a lot of the things in this topic were so interesting to me. what was attractive about all dese old video toys.
 
my concept of an ideal future definitely includes the ability to freely wander, bodily, through worlds so divorced from ours/mine that i am constantly perplexed and even horrified as to why a human being would create them. really! "my dream is to roam the broken fantasylands in your heart... do you feel the same way?" do you remember Myst? the d'ni "created" worlds of their own, what can we learn from them... human's own version of worldbuilding, approximation of discrete universes through computer simulation rather than portal technology.... what about.... Streets of Rage 2?
