Hii friends. I'm Kath and I'm a big fan of simsie since she made the cozy kit thats when my admiration began. In simsies kit there is a sticker sheet and a book devoted to my number one obsession. Bobaboo the mysims dinosaur. 🥹🥹🥹

Roughly two months ago I decided after years of wanting it to immortalise Bobaboo on my body so I can always look at him during hard times.

I know theres a buyout going on but that is exactly why I got it. They might take my favourite game away from me but they'll never take away the memories me and Bobaboo made together in the fandom. Im so happy with my tattoo haha. I was also debating the cowplant but I mean I am more tied to Bobaboo. I spent years begging for him to be acknowledged🤣.

I got the tattoo on Thursday (day after wednesday) and it looked good then but now im beginning to worry it might be infected somehow or that im not hydrating it enough because its so warm here.

Im especially worried about the black odd dots and the tail healing 😔please help.

Edit: wow wow so many folks here im trying to respond to everybody thank yall for taking the time to offer advice and listen and inspect the tattoo and help me and my tattoo. 💖🥹

I kinda panicked when I made the post but im glad to see yall kinda agree on the "you use too much cream" issue which is definitely something I worried about as well and can see happening.

I'll eh get back to yall tomorrow (sunday) (the day after Saturday) and thank yall again for listening.💖🦖🦖🦖

I got the game on sale last year for 6 euros including all its DLC and stuff. I am usually someone who plays games like Stardew valley and animal crossing but the theme of origins (ancient egypt) and the beautiful world building spoke a ton to me so I asked my friends who played if they genuinely thought I could pull it off and would enjoy this game. Admittedly there were two main concerns for me

1. I'm used to playing as a woman and a customizable character and was worried I would click with such a macho looking man as Bayek (hold the pitchforks)

2. Wouldn't this game be above my difficulty level?

So many things were new and adjusting and in the beginning I did not admittedly have the best time with origins, but this was more due to learning things from the game and figuring out the controls. Once I had that tackled the real fun began and oh my god.

The story is no joke amazing.

That said I have no other assasins game to compare it to but for me a game that is so neatly woven together is always a big plus. I loved changing characters from time to time and was really worried I'd dislike Aya but she's so lovely and just a great written character. The story I assumed would be about killing and glory turned into a heartbreaking tale as old time about loss, grief, and revenge in a beautiful but for me realistic way. I liked the cutscenes of bayek and the assassinated persons in the afterlife with the feathers and I didnt know anything story related prior so when we entered the grave there was this grave for Bayek's son and I remember feeling really shocked that he had a kid and was even married. The story of Aya and Bayek changes from grieving vengeful parents who end up becoming kinda infamous heroes who don't always do whats easy but whats in their opinion right and sometimes thats a tough call to make. Bayek is easily one of my favourite male characters and is actually unlike anything I pictured. He has humor and wit and still has that layered feeling to him. He feels idk human? Is that strange to say of a pixilated person? XD

Lore and research.

The research on this game is insane. I wasn't there all that time ago, so I cannot confirm anything you see is 100% accurate and true but I did learn stuff and i love that from playing games. I learned things about the ways the ancient Egyptians lived and the tours were really interesting and I can see easily that they really wanted everything to click and feel alive and make sense.

Combat and difficulty range

The combat was a bit hard to figure out because imagine you never played a game with direct combat before that that was me xD I also needed to get used to the stealth tatic but I really appriciated that stealth seemed to be optional because once I discovered the little firebombs I never went back from setting my enemies on fire.😂 one issue I ran into was when assassinating someone in a bathhouse and I entered via the front door as any assasin would (xD) and couldn't get back out. Thanks to this reddit I found out there's a space upstairs you're supposed to crawl into to get in and not like...the front door. Bodies remained often where I killed them and over time i learned to use the people discovering bodies as traps with bows with fire arrows and poisoned daggers.😂 sometimes I'll admit, i ran straight in, took what I needed and ran out especially in earlier levels. I also attacked a lot from the sky or higher up places when I had just began.

There was also three difficulties to pick from that also helped me along my way and a option to quick level that was meant for dlc but I'll admit it I used before the pharaoh one to kinda make ends meet and make my playthrough a tiny bit more bearable.

I am a achievement hunter and while I got this game I honestly kinda accepted I would never 100% it and found peace with that. I have many games I'd never 100% and I played this game more for me so to speak. Eventually I decided a few weeks ago that I wasn't done with origins at all after finishing the main story and sure enough...

I got it. I didn't expected that.

But what a game.

Just what an amazing game.

💚🫂and thanks for that one rooftop climbing post I thought my save was cooked there.😂
