Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.
And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.
In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

yeah, I went everywhere in this place. You'd be surprised how many places seem safe, then BOOM, nightmare fuel looking shadow thing. They seem to have been showing up less lately though.
Praise the Lamb!
oh hey it's that guy from the thing!
Why is there a cheese...thing?
I invited him.
He can, however, feel sad, like when his wife left him.

Hello There! Who might you be? I'm sure I have a welcome gift here somewhere, but it's different for each person. OH! right, I heard that THIS is pretty useful for you guys, and I sure don't need it, so here. (You got: 15 Life Jams, 20 Watermelon Juice, and 20 Whole Pizzas!)
Praise the Lamb!
oh hey it's that guy from the thing!
My name is HERO.
I'm AUBREY!
KEL!
Well, that's helpful. Thanks.

A name like ”Hero” doesn’t give your ego a good reputation.

SKREEEEEEEONK!
oh hey it's that guy from the thing!
That's not his ACTUAL name. It's his nickname because he always eats too many hero sandwiches.
Yeah, I've accepted it at this point...

well, yes I did go to those places, and- oh wait, my DNA processor is done. Let's see what the... slime DNA does! (You can guess how this goes.) Well. I guess that means it worked, now what can this body even be useful for?
Praise the Lamb!

Well to be fair “Shadow” isn’t a usual name by human standards.
Neither is Midnight.

Well what were you expecting a real life monster to be named?
Edited by GeneralGigan on May 19th 2022 at 8:18:33 AM
SKREEEEEEEONK!
oh hey it's that guy from the thing!
So we have to fight you?
No, you idiot!
But they're monsters, and we fight monsters!
ONLY MEAN ONES!
Yeah, well what if they ARE mean?
They are not!
Are too!
Are not!
Are too!
ARE NOT!
ARE TOO!
Oh boy...Another day, another fight with these two...
He can, however, feel sad, like when his wife left him.
Godzilla
It seems that you four are familiar with this subject matter, what are the monsters in your world like?
A challenge, huh? Bring It.
You’ll be the end of me at this point, Shade.
SKREEEEEEEONK!
The Lamb
I mean, if they want to fight someone, I'm probably a bit more challenging. Heck, I might even have something if you win. Remember PerfectHeart
? She's a sprout Mole compared to Cheezus. Be on guard.

Aren't you a minor god or something?
Haha! See? I was right, AUBREY!
Quit being so...smarmy about it!

Y'know what? I have an idea. If you can bring me three DNA samples I need, I'll fight you without immortality. If you want to do that, I need... Imperfect Recreation DNA, Abyss creature DNA, and Perfect DNA. I'll send a drone with you all to assist with the collection. As for the locations, they all seem somewhere... soggy. Almost like they can all be found underwater. (Quest: Battling a God?! unlocked!)
Praise the Lamb!
Godzilla
No, you were wrong.
Aw, c’mon Mid! I really wanna try out this Persona of mine.
Just trying to look out for you.

okay, we're back, did anything happen with Naja while we were gone?
Edited by NajaNerd66 on May 19th 2022 at 10:51:26 PM
The Lamb
uhm. I have no idea. I think there was something earlier, but I wasn't here.
Praise the Lamb!
Godzilla
Nothing really.

Okay, good. I think she's knocked out, and I was worried that something happened.
oh hey it's that guy from the thing!
nvm i physically can't
Oh, who are you?
He can, however, feel sad, like when his wife left him.
The Lamb
Making a thing as well. Let's just say I have text for my attacks, and dialogue.

Now I just wish I had a better way to universe-hop.

Did you go to a castle, and a spaceship, and a summoning circle for bread?
