It's basically 2.5 words, we've kept *_(that_time_i_got_reincarnated_as_a_slime)

It seems the reason for that is that there wasn't one commonly accepted short form, there very much is in this case.

should we alias the characters' canon names to their in-game titles as well?

_{also, are we sure about implying sandvich_(tf2) -> sandwich?... I mean, we normally don't imply characters to species...}

Reason: Aliasing and implying various NPCs

Very amused by the idea of sandwich being a species

Would be incorrect if the sandwich got alternate species'd

To be honest, I feel _(tf2) is too ambiguous of an initialism to adequately disambiguate more common names, given its only three common characters (or two plus a number indicating a sequel). I don't see a reason to shorten _(team_fortress_2) since it doesn't cause any names to be particularly long, not much more so than other names that exist, anyway.
