Beautiful work! He looks fantastic. :) Thank you for sharing!

Yippee! Stayed up on accident and caught the blood moon. Really beautiful to see.

There are worse backgrounds just saying.

It's funny browsing news and seeing headlines about "sparking" debate/panic/backlash or whatever. Dead giveaway it's AI writing. I remember back when Twitter first starting floating AI trending topics, literally every topic was something "sparking debate." Every one. AI still slopping the same now.

Commission from a couple years ago by @hibbary.bsky.social. It meant a lot to me at the time, and I still break it out periodically and just kinda get lost in the details.

I just had my "won the lottery" moment. Playing RE9, I found the Organ Transplant Box, and just fiddling with the controls on it, I managed to open it on my very first attempt - BEFORE ever finding the note that tells you how to open it. If you've played RE9, you know how absolutely BONKERS that is.

Oh my. Excited to see where this is going. :) Great work so far!

Very curious!

This is a Nazi move. Stripping people of rights, invalidating their IDs, setting them up for criminalization and imprisonment.

If you don't support trans rights, you support fascism.

I'm kinda relieved to hear that. I have been feeling guilty about the prospect of writing a letter that isn't super "from the ground up" original, because it's been drilled into my head throughout my academic career that you gotta stand out to get picked. Only so much originality in me, I guess. :)

Writing reference letters is hard. I wonder if other academic faculty get to the point where they just kinda retrofit previous letters onto new students' letters and then customize them a bit from there. Because legit after having written 10-15 letters, I'm struggling to stay original lmao.

Do it. Do iiiiiit.

This is beautiful! Best Mountain I've ever laid eyes on. :)

Oh! lmao. Well, I'll still do my best to see one haha.

oo panels? Hopefully I'll have a chance to attend one of them. What are the topics?

Yeah. Part of the messiness is underexplained mechanics. Ex. the [ground] parry is directional, so you can only parry if you're facing an attack, but unlike or parry or die games like Sekiro, there's no lock-on, so you have to micro-reposition while timing your parry press. Just extra bits of jank.

I finished the heck out of it. It was really hard! Too hard, I thought! But it was impeccably designed, so that difficulty felt fun and rewarding to me. This game so far though. Yikes.

There's more but I don't want to diatribe at you. So, I get your point. Bang your head against a wall enough and eventually you'll break through. I've played literally every souls game multiple times. I'm familiar with "live, die, repeat." For me, this game's mechanics just feel messy and overtuned.

I'm on Yingzhao, the centaur looking boss right now. First "real" boss of the game, and he has A) a two-hit combo where the first one knocks you down so you can't avoid the second; B) normal attacks which take up 75%+ of the arena, C) no time to heal between most attacks, and D) two full phases. 🤷‍♂️

I try to steer clear of empty buzz words. I can see a lot of work went into the art design, but the combat design is really messy and frustrating, and they super overtuned it to demand perfection or death. I'd prefer not to turn difficulty down b/c no achievements, but this just isn't fun so far.

Yup, it's messy and overtuned. My patience for "die to learn" after all the Souls and Metroidvanias I've played is directly tied to clean, polished design, and this game is replete with bad design choices and stuff that is just janky enough to be frustrating instead of fun.

Trying Nine Sols out based on the good word of mouth. Honestly extremely unimpressed so far. Git gud or whatever, but 2-3 hours in, it's been nothing but a combination of bad hitboxes, unreadable attack animations, too-tight parry windows, poor parry feedback, difficulty spikes, and no i-frames. 🤷‍♂️

Watching Predator Badlands, and the title drop had big giant "ALL RIGHTS RESERVED" text prominently displayed all the way across the screen under the title. Got me wondering, do all movies do this, and this is just the first time I'm noticing? Looked kinda bad to my eye. Too visually busy.
