How can she still be alive...? After so long in that state...

I'm not sure if we have any Tumblr refugees around, but since DW's a bit more active of late, I wanted to say hi to anyone who might be reading, and confirm that we aten't (necessarily) dead. The community's been quiet for a while, partly because Dreamwidth is quiet and partly because there hasn't been much Fatal Frame-related news to discuss for the last few years, but I'm still floating around, and new members and posts are still welcome and appreciated!

Whether you're a new member or an old one, I'd love to hear from people in the comments; maybe say a little about how you got into Fatal Frame, or share a link to your favourite art/fic for the series, or just anything you want.

it liiiiiiiiives

i actually subscribed to this comm years ago under a different account. just now i went poking around the interests search and discovered, hey, an update one week ago! i wasn't expecting that.

i got into fatal frame through livejournal roleplay. i had friends who played characters from the games--mayu, kei, and choushiro primarily--and i was intrigued enough to give the series a shot. i've loved the franchise ever since, and fatal frame 1 holds a special place in my heart as the first horror game i ever played.

i've played 1-4 all the way through and i've got a save file at the very beginning of 5 that i need to get back to. (i've mostly been focusing on handheld games these days because they're way more convenient for me.) i want to play deep crimson butterfly very, very badly, but the region lock won't let me.

(unless somebody knows how to bypass the region lock? the fatal frame 4 patch proves it's possible... if anybody can tell me how to get the european version of the remake working on a north american wii, i'll give you my firstborn, LMAO.)

my favorite fatal frame game is probably 3, but i find the final chunk of the game to be super difficult, so the one i've played through the most is 1. i love them all, though, and i feel like i'm always realizing something new and wonderful to appreciate about them every time i so much as start talking about them. can't say that for every game franchise, you know?
