What's your current obsession?
 
Thought it'd be fun to have this thread around!

What are you currently obsessed with (or just really into)? =)

ReKoil December 14th, 2021 10:03 AM

Does shiny breeding count? =p
I've been stuck doing it for quite some time now.... 😅
There's always more... more... I NEED MOAR! @[email protected]

Been obsessing over Jujutsu Kaisen recently (especially a certain blindfolded character...)
I'm also adamant to do a glass painting of said character. I did one before (of Tsuyu from MHA) and I thought it was a fun experience. It was a lot of work, yes, and I'm not the best with paints, but I still had fun and I'm still proud of it. I'm hoping this future one turns out better, since I have a better understanding of how the process works. I'll have to wait a few days when I return home from college because all the paints are at home, but I'm very excited to start! I've got the image I want to paint (I was debating between 2 but finally decided on one.)

I don't like that word, it has negative connotations. So, I'm going to use the word fixation instead.

Currently mostly fixated on Genshin Impact, though.

I've been doing a lot of Gunpla building. It's really good but sometimes I wanna just chuck them into the wall. xD

ZeoStar December 14th, 2021 2:09 PM

I mostly used a PlayStation 4 as my main cure of boredom. Recently I caught wind of a burning smell, upon checking, sparks came flying out of the back plug. I won't be using that, so I'll be substituting it for something else.

There were a couple TV series I was interested in. I guess it's a good chance to finish them up. Although when I haven't watched something for a while, it can be somewhat difficult getting back into it.

Sami December 14th, 2021 11:43 PM

My current obsession is clicking 500 times on the same icon over and over... help

rts games have corrupted me

Roni December 15th, 2021 12:11 AM

Looking for Discord servers to join for the emotes. Ever since I got Nitro I've been on an adventure to hoard collect them.

Retek December 15th, 2021 2:05 AM

Blender VFX!

Am currently OBSESSED with camera tracking now!

gimmepie December 15th, 2021 5:35 AM

D&D, Arcane and Genshin. I spend far too much time in a week thinking about those three things lmao.

ZeoStar December 15th, 2021 2:03 PM

I got into Pokemon Rom Hacks again. These can be so brutal.

It seems to be a trend to give the gym leaders 6 pokemon. I have mixed feelings. It can get tedious when the early gyms have a full team, because it means you need to grind a full team too.

Some of them are also incredible. The inclusion of newer gen pokemon is almost flawless. As well as the quality of life features. There are enchantment hacks that make the older games almost feel obsolete.

RedDragonThunderzord December 18th, 2021 8:25 PM

Currently totally obsessed with Power Rangers. Hence my username.

LuminescentUmbreon December 19th, 2021 2:35 PM

I'm currently obsessed with Dragon Ball. I never watched the original series or Z growing up so I'm just now finally diving into it.

Researching about indoor power station brands. My aunt wants to buy one for the next calamity like this, and we want a good one.

nothing, and it bothers me o: I feel aimless when I'm not hyperfixating on anything...

Amore December 28th, 2021 3:38 PM

Debating whether to drop about £1500 to make my childhood Pokémon dreams come true - backups of my current games and consoles and making sure I have one of every main series game in Gen III to V as well as new GBAs and Link Cables so I can actually trade in Gen III for once. All the games have to come in boxes, of course! So I spend about 2 hours every day thinking about that.

My other obsession is The Expanse (TV series). Got Prime free trial again so I can binge the whole series in time to catch the final season and I am flying through it. I covered 3 seasons in a week!

So true. Most recently after seeing No Time To Die and then No Way Home (super happy with both), I woke up the next day and was just like "well now what do I care about?"

RadEmpoleon January 19th, 2022 8:49 PM

Right now, anime fan edits. Watching all those edits really inspired me and now I want to make one. (I've made 2 in the past, so I do know what I'm doing. Watch them here if you want.) I have a character and song in mind (and I already have the section I want to use recorded) so now I just need to plan out what clips of the character I want to use, then I have to record all those clips. THEN comes the actual editing process. Cutting the clips down to the right length, adding the transitions, making sure they flow properly, adding filters and effects here and there... it's definitely the hardest part of the whole process. But like anything creative, it's worth it in the end to see the finished product in all its glory.

Ordering Korean food online that I really don’t need.

Opposite sides of the same coin we are, my dear Dragon. ♡

Making Picrew icons for my OCs instead of drawing them

Roni January 24th, 2022 6:36 AM

Unsurprisingly, Minecraft skins and shaders lmao

tenfrogs January 25th, 2022 2:20 AM

For the last year or so it's been frogs, but now that they're cemented firmly in the "serotonin giving things" part of my brain, I'd have to say recently it's cheesy horror movies. I got a SHUDDER subscription just so I can watch all the old 80's and 90's horror flicks, I love them.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ January 25th, 2022 5:51 AM

'70's and '80's car commercials. A whole bunch have been uploaded on the Tube of You and they just hit differently, especially ones with songs/jingles written specifically for the car. You haven't truly lived until you've heard a guy sing passionately about a Ford Taurus.

Spoiler:

Mintaka☆ January 25th, 2022 6:41 AM

I'll admit it, I've been more fixated on Pokémon Xenoverse than I would have liked to be. I'm on my second playthrough and even though I don't like the story any better than I did the first time, I am at least able to latch onto what few positives there are this time, and laugh at the negatives. That final battle is definitely still worth traversing Hell-diw a second time.

Plus, I have grown very attached to my Shulong, Gengar X and shiny Scovile despite holding a bias against most Fakemon in this game. I still can't believe I found a shiny of the one Pokémon (other than the starter) that I would have broken my "no Fakemon" rule for. And what you know, I've even been looking up tutorials so I can make a female Pikachu X plush out of a fluffy sock!

So yeah, I can definitely consider XV my "so bad it's good" favourite out of all Pokémon fangames now.

AlolanRattata January 29th, 2022 2:06 PM

The Flash.

tenfrogs January 30th, 2022 4:52 AM

Pokemon.

I've gotten really into it since joining the forum. I mean I've always liked it, but now I'm like reading the manga, watching the TV show and movies and collecting Pokemon cards lmao, I love it.

moon January 30th, 2022 5:35 AM

a couple of things:

- the rp im just starting up (we're gonna have so much fun if we make it work!)

- The Expanse (holy shit this show is so good and right up my alley, why did i sleep on this for so long)

- Oscar Isaac (no explanation needed tbh)

Roni January 30th, 2022 11:24 AM

Spider-Man lore, thanks to NWH :3

Finding more and more bands I vibe with to add to my ever growing personal playlist~

tenfrogs February 6th, 2022 7:30 PM

ArrDee.



I don't even know why I just love him rn. D:

CiCi February 9th, 2022 10:58 PM

Anime Kaworu from Neon Genesis Evangelion (manga Kaworu sucks and his homoerotic interest in Shinji doesn't make him any less terrible). I love how he's so intellectual, a bit socially inept, really perceptive, soft-spoken, kind, and empathetic. I loooooove him <3

Me, seeing Manga Kaworu:


Also JonTron. He's the only content creator who consistently makes me laugh and I really need that so I've been binging his videos without caring how many times I've already seen them.

Typically, my obsessions are with fictional men, or fictional universes. Ask me what my obsession is again in a month and it'll probably be a different fictional man.

Van McCann from Catfish and the Bottlemen.

sadjksdajklsad he is nice

moon February 10th, 2022 11:02 AM

i'm actually surprised my "current obsessions" have not changed since last time I replied to this thread ahah

Roni February 11th, 2022 8:51 AM

Apparently, applying for narration gigs lmao. I've been on a roll recently~

now let's see if any of them reply oop-

Duck February 11th, 2022 6:45 PM

Chinese dramas, I guess.

Or rather this one Chinese Drama.

Commander Saturn February 11th, 2022 10:57 PM

Making instant mashed potatoes without utilising measuring utensils and also Genshin Impact.

The upcoming FE game and Dimitri's new look!

tenfrogs February 12th, 2022 4:57 PM

Catfish and the Bottlemen. I am absolutely in love with Van McCann omg

StCooler February 13th, 2022 6:21 PM

League of Legends ^^"
The game is fun and addicting, but it's better played with friends so you don't get frustrated by your teammates :)
I really hope I'm not getting toxic by contagion though XD

Wait, there’s a new FE? I was going to say something else but I feel like that will probably become my new obsession.

A new Warriors but with 3h characters!

RadEmpoleon March 1st, 2022 1:15 PM

I made a new OC a few days ago and he's one of my other OC's bf and I'm having fun making up ship dynamics. Very wholesome and very gay.

I’ve been going through a heavy Zelda phase too recently. It’s like once every year or two I just HAVE to go back and 100% OOT or MM. All the YouTube content I watch is related to LOZ (especially speedruns omg), I catch up on all of the LOZ comics I follow, and I break out the ol’ BOTW merch.

I just love the Zelda games so much, but it really comes in waves for me where I’m obsessed with it and then wane into just general internet like a normal person lol.

Retek March 2nd, 2022 6:32 AM

My current obsession is RDR 2. I thought I had seen it all with BOTW, the openness of the world in gameplay, but damn...I just loved this game!!

Roni March 3rd, 2022 9:02 PM

Scrobbling and tracking my Spotify listening stats lmao. But I gotta quell that quick bcs it's honestly getting in the way of my actual appreciation for music listening :c Just yesterday I got so unnecessarily broken because Last.fm didn't track 18 hours worth of listens D: But it shouldn't matter because it won't take away the fact that I indeed listened to said music~

Retek March 3rd, 2022 9:18 PM

Substance Painter 3D! Learning that nowadays! ^^

RadEmpoleon March 4th, 2022 5:37 PM

I've been sketching eyes in my sketchbook! It's fun to practice different expressions, and practice both masculine and feminine eyes.
