History
1/9/19 - thread made

to do
make the other links post prettier??
add more content??
oh make a PSN name list

and open! I would love some feedback, as I'm not very good at making forum threads haha. Any suggestions would be welcome as well!

Time to answer some questions!
What was your first experience playing journey like?
I played journey for the first time in two segments. For some reason, I was really nervous approaching another journeyer, and kind of followed from a distance until they turned around and spotted me. But from then on, we were inseperable! I had to pause my play to eat dinner but I found when I came back that my partner was still with me. It was an incredible first experience that nearly made me cry when it was over.

Are you excited that its coming to PC?
yes! I don't currently have any kind of computer set up that could probably run it, but once I do, I will definitely be playing. I'm hoping it kind of brings a resurgence of life to the journey fandom!

Do you still play?
Off and on, yes! With work and college it's been a little tough to find time to play, but I do like to play when I can, usually late at night. I also stream to twitch from my ps4 when I do play most of the time! I don't have a headset yet but I plan on getting one for my birthday so I can actually talk while streaming haha

Have you ever attempted any glitches? (fast flying/out of bounds)
Yeah! I don't really get how fast flying works but I love going out of bounds. I was so afraid the first time someone showed me how to do it. Alot of the OOB areas require some blind trust in your partner when you do them for the first time, but a couple are really easy to get into. I love showing people how to get in. It can be difficult to exit, though.

Any memorable moments?
One of my favorite moments was when I was playing alone! I had freed a few of the carpets in the desert, but out of nowhere, several more appeared and circled my character for about two minutes, like a school of fish. I should've taken video, honestly. It's very neat!

Has it led you to create? (fan OCS, stories, etc)
Yeah! I actually have an oc who used to be a fancharacter, and I like him alot. He was a carpet shepherd. By the time I made him I was about two years too late to the prime tumblr rp blog scene haha!

I’ve always wanted to play it, adore the soundtrack (it has fueled the majority of my novels and I’ve memorized I Was Born For This in its glorious multilingual glory, though actually singing along to those high notes is v hard) and just love the concept. I hope it comes out for pc soon!

Hi @cosmicpoppies, please note that bumping is only allowed in the sales forums!

On topic: I love Journey, I ended up playing it later than most, but I still had no idea what the game was about. I still remember my first friend... they stayed with me for the whole game but I remember almost losing them a few times and feeling sad. :(

@Peixes ah shoot that's my bad! Thanks for letting me know!

There have been a few times where I've had a player DC from me and it's heartbreaking! It's always when we've played most of the game together haha!

@duskflower oh I know the soundtrack is just so wonderful! I was blown away when I found out that I Was Born For This was multilingual, it's so beautiful! Austin Wintory does such a good job

@cosmicpoppies -this took me a painfully long time to find, actually was looking for The Pathless stuff...

But now this! Ah yes Journey. I have an old fanderg I never renamed, shoved in my hib den. This game is amazing :) finally got White Cloak a couple weeks ago! Wend searching for the flower too. The music is a part of the world for sure, I can't imagine it any other way!

Oh boi OCs don't underestimate me. My first was Mirage, (no glyph yet lol) an art child who inspired my UN a bit! (I just realized none of mine have glyphs drawn yet)
Then my main really is Skye. They have a lot of headcanon surrounding them so... I might put that in a different post.
On the topic of crossovers, I have Melody. She was made for a weird ABZÛ/Journey crossover (The Pathless got yeeted too). Actually every one but Mirage was for that crossover. River is next, they ended up adopting my next OC Autumn. VTooootally didn't make those two a couple weeks ago- oh and Viv, a bit of a side character.
