oyceterSo much stuff going on in Glitch right now! I should probably make an icon of Squeegle (my character) at some point, since I keep posting about it...
Anyway, I finally caved and bought a subscription and credits. If Sims Social and offline moving has taught me nothing else, it has shown that I am a billion times more likely to shell out money for pretty furnishings and decorations than I am for clothes. For some reason, this personal consistency soothes me.
(I also go "Ooo, I like this song, what is it?" a lot to CB, who frequently says it is the tenth time I have said that I both like the song and don't know it. This consistency also makes me happy.)
And I am just happy with all the changes the developers are making! It's very cool that they seem to be looking at exactly how people's use of items in Glitch has been changing and making things to accommodate that—the new Notes Pole is what brought this to mind. I also love that previously impractical objects and skills are now far more practical and desirable, because really, while I liked making fuel cells before, it made pretty little sense to do so when I couldn't find street projects to throw blocks at. But oh man, my woodworking machine uses so many of the suckers!
I am also amused by how formerly useful objects in Glitch are becoming decorative items. You can interact with them, unlike in Sims Social, but it's funny how many of us seem to want to do things like set our tables and fill our kitchens with food and have books lying around everywhere. (Seriously, Glitch, let us craft books! I don't even care what they're used for, I just want books everywhere. How else is it supposed to feel homey?)
And of course, everything is done in that weird Glitch way, so not only can you have your Danish modern furniture, you can also have a room papered in bacon with little vegetable and fruit tables and chairs! Or a sandwich bed!
Despite now having credits and a subscription, I haven't decorated much yet. I don't know exactly what I want yet, so I am mostly ogling everyone else's decor. That said, I am totally hatching a ton of piglets and chicks and not feeding them to grow them up so they can sit around my house looking cute!
ETA: Also, even though I was the one who was most excited when all the updates came out, CB is actually the one who has been totally hooked. I feel a bit guilty about this, since he had just kicked his Minecraft addiction, but it was kind of nice to have someone who is extremely into games validate my newest pet toy. Especially when everything else I've liked so far is stuff like Sims Social and Tiny Tower.
