Thinking about what a baller creative design it was to have Casper Darling in his underwear while he's giving the closing loredump before you go into the finale of Control.

I'm watching a playthrough of Control to feed my curiosity good and proper and I wonder if the reason Jesse doesn't have to rely on the meridians of the Oldest House itself while stabilising control points has to do with Polaris' presence in the Oldest House. The control points stay stable, the walls stick to where they are, even though the signal amplifiers and antennaes go flying every time she so much as brushes past one.

Is Polaris older than the Board? Maybe she's also residing in the deep recesses of the Oldest House, just like the Hiss, instead of just possessing Jesse.

Taking a break from SW and TF and ended up circling the Control drain again and

*sharp inhale*

This game.

Aaaaand now I'm having weird twitchy thoughts about the Oldest House and brutalism, and how, I think, the reputation brutalism has compared to the creative intention behind it changes the meaning behind the setting.

Also as much as I love Jesse, how is letting Emily "RIP to Dr. Darling but I'm different" Pope in charge of anything a good idea? :'DD

My brain is currently stuck overthinking Control because I'm still kind of. Circling around the themes of it and feeling weirdly overwhelmed by the ending of the main plot, and the only coherent thing I can really say about it is that Langston is the only Valid person working for the Bureau.

Dude just wants to stop a bunch of objects with superpowers and ornery personalities from killing them all, and yet here are the science people and their bosses both constantly finding/making new ones or doing shit that will end the world even without the help of any of the SCPs he's responsible for.

Dude just wants to get back to his cat and gets no respect.

(Control was really good, y'all.)

My fully-fluent-in-English ass watched the beginning of this video with the biggest grin on my face because a) an actual Finnish character in a video game holy shit b) Ahti clowns the shit out of Jesse with every line out of his mouth, and that, really, is the Finnish Experience with monolingual English Speakers.



God, I love Remedy.
