      You'd be surprised what a dedicated fanbase can do. Sailor Moon S, a super broken, super obscure Japan-only SNES fighting game got brought to the state by one single guy that liked the game a little too much. Now it's one of the most beloved meme game of the FGC.

    So one cool thing about our favorite guy Julius Caesar is that we have documentation that he himself authored about his own rule and conquest as a leader in the Roman Empire. But what's funny is, he took into account the idea that his writing would exist long after he's gone; so, he wrote in third person. "Caesar did this, Caesar did this *because*..." and that's actually pretty cool to get the man's personal account of his own actions.
    Given the way MKarma structured his video, one could make the case that what he did makes him a modern Caesar.

      I suspect autism- and I don't mean that in a mean way bc I also have ASD lmao. You get attracted to the weirdest shit and develop an incredibly deep understanding of it bc you're engaging with it like 12 hours a day with few breaks. Continuous obsessive engagement, even if it's only for a few weeks, let's you get deeper into something than if you were just consistently putting in less time per 'session' over months, because of how it primes your brain. Jenny Nicholson is a good example of autistic obsession too, except her channel is very successful; Her content has a compelling split of more mainstream interests and 'script doctoring', as well as a good splash of her more niche interests and unheard of picks. But the way we understand things is compelling because we care so deeply and sincerely about it.

    this game was my childhood for so long, i would spend hours playing, never getting old of replaying it. I've been meaning to reinstall it for a while, it's so cool to see this game getting more publicity so many years down the road
