Something I love about rtgame is that when i watch other people play unpacking and they get to the toxic boyfriend's apartment and they find out that they can't hang up their diploma anywhere, most of their reactions are usually along the lines of "awwwww that's so sad :(" and be understandably upset for the mc... but rt? he takes it a step further and starts messing with the boyfriend's shit, mocking his male living space, actively cheering for this relationship to end as soon as possible "'so are you done unpacking-' 'i want to break up'" and most importantly hiding the bf's ties in random, hard to see locations.
absolute king shit right there

Get To Know Me: Video Game Edition!
Tumblr media
(Can you tell that I'm obsessed with I Was a Teenage Exocolonist and Hades?)
I haven't played a lot of games yet, so this was kinda hard. Some other games that I like are:
Potion Permit
Beacon Pines
Coral Island
I'm also trying out some demos from the Steam Next Fest, and these are my favorites so far:
Stray Gods
Lakeburg Legacies
The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood
And here's the blank template:

Do you have to watch and read everything about a piece of media the moment you finish consuming it, or are you normal?.

Unpacking is very cute and I admire the type of narrative it's able to pull off just through the gameplay of moving into spaces. the intimacy of everyday objects, still life, environmental storytelling, etc etc etc
But i have Got to talk about 2010. Unpacking is a game where all you do is take stuff out of boxes and find spaces for it, and for the most part it gives you quite a lot of freedom about where you can put stuff. There are some rules - most things cant go on the floor, stuff generally has to be in the right room, the soap has to be near the sink, etc etc, but apart from that there's no wrong place to put things.
Moving into this fucking guy's house in 2010 felt like putting everything in the wrong place. It felt like I wasn't supposed to be there, a square peg into a round hole. His entire house is pristine when I get there, everything organised perfectly, evenly spaced, colour-matched, sterile. Throughout the level I'm shoving everything around on his bookcase to fit my hoard of knickknacks, putting my red plastic colander in the cupboard above his cool green matching set of plates and bowls, my bright purple toothbrush cup, hairbrush, and straightening iron clutter his pristine bathroom counter. My family of stuffed chickens is made to look silly next to his fancy mixology set and miniature sand garden.
I end up putting my laptop and drawing tablet out on the kitchen island because there isn't a desk anywhere I can use. My markers and hoard of sketchbooks are crammed into my bedside table. I'm not allowed to move his posters in the living room, so my university certificate goes under the bed.
I won't pretend that I, playing Unpacking in 2023, didn't know how the game ended. I knew already that the protagonist would move on from this guy, but even if I didn't, I would have been able to tell. It was not fun moving into his house, it was not easy or charming to meld our lives together, I did not feel welcome there. Moving in with him felt like a transgression, an imposition. Moving in with him felt like a wrong decision in a game where I couldn't really make wrong decisions.
An incredible magic trick of game design, in my opinion.

ok ok so my professor came up to me before class a few weeks ago and i was a little worried when she brought up the short writing assignment I did the day before on Unpacking but after I confirmed that I wrote it she smiled and told me how a guest lecturer was going to take up that exact game as part of their lectures on LGBTQ+ videogames and I shit you not I was so excited.
SO flash forward to now and that guest prof just finished their intro lecture, mentioning how their next one will actually focus on the game. After the lecture I walk up to them in all my youtuber merch glory, introduce myself, mention the writing assignment (which apparently the guest prof already knew about bc my prof told them??? crazy) and the prof asks me what I think about the game, and I think they were kinda hinting about the ex-boyfriend's room and how they were going to discuss the story implications of it???
but apparently I was one step ahead of them and told the prof about how I was inspired from a "streamer I watched" (cough RTGame cough) and how I've found that level 100% more enjoyable when I stopped giving a shit and just messed with the boyfriend's shit, inconveniencing him however possible and guys. GUYS.
the way the professor's eyes LIT UP dude, they even giggled when I told them about folding the boyfriend's fancy suits and placing his coffee shit on the highest shelf, and they told me that they were going to open their game just to replay that level and try what I did and man. MAN.
this lecturer has no involvement with my actual grade, but I definitely feel like I just got an A+ in making that prof's DAY.

Joining a new fandom is so stressful. Like, I recently started watching Andy and Ethan's reels and I've started one of Ethan's streams and I am confused. Who is Winter? Ethan is moving in with Andy? Since when? What is the relevance of Edinburgh? Is that where he's moving to? Why does Ethan have puppy ears? Why are there dancing dinosaurs in the chat? What is this talk of a maid dress? Why is Ethan playing the most stressful game in existence?

Not gonna lie, Witch Beam going from Assault Android Cactus to Unpacking, then scarcely half a year later Ben Esposito going from Donut County to Neon White has gotta be one of the weirder cases of equivalent exchange I’ve ever seen.
