I'm playing Save the Light

I'm not a video game person at all and don't really know how to play them, so I'm kind of a mess trying to play this game, but here it is.

My friend was kind enough to lend me his PS4 so I can play. :relaxed: :relaxed:

I did play Attack the Light on mobile, but I was not very good at it. I completed it, and thought it was cute, but now that a more complex game was coming out, I was worried. I said I thought I wouldn't know how to play.

My friend reassured me and said it was weird to worry because games walk you through stuff and it's not that complicated. And I said:

But I don't speak video game.

People who play games don't understand how much knowledge they go into these games with that they think is common knowledge BUT IT IS NOT. My friend was curious why I thought that and I'm like...I guess you'll see what I mean. If you watch me try to play.

So he brought it over and got me started and it was all pretty cool.

But then I'm like uhhh

It's telling me to press a button and I pressed every button and it's still telling me to press a button

He's like "oh that big black thing is a button"

What

That is a button

Why

Also "go talk to that guy!"

I don't know how.

"Press X!"

...How am I supposed to know that that makes me talk to them?

"That's just...what you do in video games."

SEE??

SEE IT IS A LANGUAGE I DON'T SPEAK

Not everyone talks back.

The scenery is of course beautiful.

And at the beginning your party is Greg, Steven, and Connie, but you can choose who to add next.

I mean. I kind of have to pick Garnet because I'm Garnet trash so

I did and she immediately did Garnet things.

Garnet gonna Garnet.

You can pick who to apply cool badges to and do stuff to enhance characters' relationships so they can get special moves together. I think Garnet's level upon entry in the game might be a lil out of proportion to the others.

I am really interested to see Garnet's special move with Connie, with Greg, and with Steven! Fusion is available as a special move only if the characters have fused in the show (I think), and I've seen Stevonnie, but I think Greg moves are all music based so maybe Garnet will whip out an instrument. Yessss. I need this. (Don't spoil me if you know what happens!)

Since I'm not good at games and I started late too, this is where I am now. I just entered Beach City's woods.

I'm gonna guess Onion is out here somewhere. Hopefully it's not the season to see his creepy friends.

I'll share cute stuff as I continue to play.
