I recently started playing Melty Blood: Type Lumina and I really like it. I know about this series other than Arcueid is a vampire. The game is tons of fun and I really love the crazy moves that you can do. I have always been interested Type Moon stuff, but it seems like there is too much content for me to start with.

So I found a set of six Minicons for 12 bucks at the flea market last weekend and I've been regretting the decision all week because I just keep looking at Armada Megatron listings and weeping.

Watching Star Trek Strange New Worlds Series II on DVD and the final episodes of Discovery.

Finished Picard on DVD.

Any new shows will be Star Wars and Strange New Worlds on DVD.

That's a blast from the past. How long has it been? At least two decades since Armada? Hope you find a decent Megatron btw. Are we talking about the green and purple one with stag beetle horns?

Yep, the scowling brick.



Sadly the horns are as commonly lost as the missiles and Minicon so finding a complete one is neither easy nor cheap Managed to get a good deal on one either way.

Now I just need to track down a Cyclonus and Demolishor to round out the Armada Decepticons since I managed to score a complete Takara Super Mode Starscream/Thundercracker a couple of years ago off of YJA for a song.

My life means more to other people than it does to me.

The pandemic/covid affected me badly mentally and psychologically.

This is funny to me as I recently started Witch On The Holy Knight, which is a prequel to Tsukihime, Arcueid's game. My friends told me that since the Fate Stay Night remaster, that and Witch are the best ganes to start with, FSN is probably ideal though

With Type Moon, this is generally the best order to play if you want to understand how the Nasuverse's magic system works:

Garden of Sinners introduces a lot of the verse's magecraft system, Mystic Eyes (which plays a huge role in Tsukihime), the Counter Force (which plays a huge role in Fate), among other things. You can start here if you wish.

Witch on the Holy Night expands on mage society's rules (which play a role in Fate/Stay Night), and is a prequel to Tsukihime and Garden of Sinners.

Tsukihime introduces the concept of vampires in the Nasuverse, and expands on the Mystic Eyes.

Fate/Stay Night introduces the concept of Servants, Counter Guardians, and the whole plot is centred on how other mages try to access the Root (a metaphysical plane that is the goal of the antagonist in Witch of the Holy Night and plays a huge role in Garden of Sinners).

That's an extreme oversimplification, but it's a start.

Or you can just drop in with Carnival Phantasm, have no idea what the hell is going on or who these people are, and laugh at the funny failgirls.
