Jun. 5th, 2016 04:12 amBrian called last night, and I filled him in on my dilemma regarding Pokemon. At one point, he asked me to think about what excites me, and I asked him to explain what he means by that.
The example he used was if I ever saw an action movie and wished I was the one in the middle of everything going on. I ruled that out, saying that movies tend not to interest me in the first place.
I then went on to explain that, with Pokemon, I appreciate all the different parts of the world and their mons that the games all have to offer, and how I hope to put those of the first four generations into prose. This he found nothing short of moving.
Moving on, I also told him that I probably wouldn't be coming over to see him, and he agreed that now isn't the most convenient time for him to have me over, due to having recently been let go from his job. He should be coming over next month, though, and also agreed to have me show him an episode of Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

At this point, I'm thinking that, if anything, the next best thing to actually playing the games again might be to watch other people's playthroughs on YouTube. Even with four more dungeons left in Link's Awakening (which I've even slowed down with lately), something like that would be viable right about now.
