> recap: i've been going over **this list** from my **fedi profile**:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
free sw, read/writing, philosophy, gaming, music, CUTENESS, learning japanese!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> and so far i've talked a little about *free software* and *reading*.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*which of course brings us to*:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 02.1 writing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
writing is something i've always enjoyed doing. i have a plethora of stories,
|
||
|
|
poems, songs, and other complete and incomplete works i've written dating back
|
||
|
|
decades in physical and digital storage. unfortunately most of it is, at this
|
||
|
|
time, missing. there is a good chance much is gone forever. i'm not too
|
||
|
|
concerned about that, though, to be honest because most of what i've written is
|
||
|
|
garbage and saved in the first place because **(a)** i'm a hoarder and **(b)**
|
||
|
|
i like to see the progress in quality i've made over my life.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
that i enjoy writing is evidenced in the existence of this blog itself. it is
|
||
|
|
also a goal of mine to one day publish a novel. there's a possibility of me
|
||
|
|
posting past works on this blog, or even current ones, some time in the future.
|
||
|
|
time will tell.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 03 philosophy
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
i have spent countless hours in the study of philosophy, both of my own design
|
||
|
|
and that of others'. i've already written a little about my philosophical
|
||
|
|
beliefs and stances in previous posts—like the one titled
|
||
|
|
[i know nothing; i see nothing; i hear nothing](/posts/2019-06-18-i-know-nothing-i-see-nothing-i-hear-nothing.html).
|
||
|
|
in that post i attempt to describe what could be considered one of (if not
|
||
|
|
*the definitive*) core philosophical belief of mine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
i will explore this topic in more depth at a later time. 多分。
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 04 gaming
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
there are, of course, many types of games and therefore many types of gaming.
|
||
|
|
the gaming i am referring to in my little blurb is inclusive of many types of
|
||
|
|
gaming. i like **board games**, **card games**, **mind games**, **tabletop/pen
|
||
|
|
and paper role-playing games**, ***(mostly retro)*** **console gaming**,
|
||
|
|
**collectible/trading card games**, and ***(mostly retro)*** **computer
|
||
|
|
gaming**, to name some broadly-defined types of gaming i like.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
i love playing (and am terrible at) **chess**. also fun to play and a lot newer
|
||
|
|
(and another i lack a great deal of skill in) is `nintendo`'s **super smash
|
||
|
|
bros.** franchise which i've been playing since the original for the
|
||
|
|
***nintendo 64***. another `nintendo` gem is the **animal crossing** franchise,
|
||
|
|
of which i've played/owned the *original*, the *3ds version*, and for the first
|
||
|
|
several months it was available i played *animal crossing: pocket camp* on
|
||
|
|
android.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
i own but don't really play anymore a `new nintendo 3ds xl`. when i was
|
||
|
|
spending a lot of my time playing on it, however, the three games that stand
|
||
|
|
out as being the games i spent the most time playing were:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- animal crossing: new leaf
|
||
|
|
- fire emblem fates/if: all three routes
|
||
|
|
- dragon quest ix: sentinels of the starry skies (a ds game i played iirc mostly on my 3ds)
|
||
|
|
- i would have won this one except i lost tons of hours of progress because i didn't save frequently enough and the system died or something. i was so smegging close to winning and my progress was set back so far i kind of lost heart. ;;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
historically, my favourite video game of all time has been **megaman
|
||
|
|
x**/**rockman x** for the `super famicom`/`snes` (although this is most likely
|
||
|
|
no longer the case. my current favourite video game of all time is unknown).
|
||
|
|
there was a time i could sit down and play through **megaman x** using 100%
|
||
|
|
original `nintendo` hardware in a single sitting. i can no longer do this, but
|
||
|
|
it's possible i will be able to again if i try (i still own the cartridge,
|
||
|
|
console, and controller—all of which are known to be in working order).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
i am going to end this blog entry here, but i'm not done talking about gaming.
|
||
|
|
in ***part 3*** i will talk more about: *90s dos games* including **god of
|
||
|
|
thunder**, *ttrpgs*, the *mobile gacha game* i played for a few years (read:
|
||
|
|
was hopelessly addicted to for a few years), *pokemon rom hacks*, and `more`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
***as always: stay tasty o/***
