If anyone wants some fleshed out references and details of my characters designs, this is the thread of links to their respective folders!

I'm still messing around with these folders as we speak, but I have comments on in case you're looking for something specific

Watching the generation that grew up on PS1/N64 graphics/jank and youtube poops become actual creators and not shying away from any of it has been an amazing counterbalance to the <TV Static> that is the current world and I am here for it.

This is awesome, put it in the Louvre and steal it.

- Big
- Ugly
- Barely any exclusives
- Library mostly remasters or remakes instead of new or continuing IP
- Live service everywhere
- Needs an internet connection to use the damn disc drive

Tons of people have these in their homes just to play Fortnite, COD, and 2K, every big game folks play on PC
Whenever I chat to anyone about the PS5's life so far, am I typically met with a waft of lukewarm praise or shrug of plain ambivalence? Why hasn't it captivated people - at least me - in the way the PS4 did? https://bit.ly/3LCEQZu

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

It sucks being someone with inconsistent social anxiety. I love public speaking but hate being flung into large group conversations

As a neurotypical introvert if I'm not controlling the conversation with a microphone I want to die

I tend to draw those big ensemble pieces in separate layers-per character. I wouldn't really recommend doing it that way, but it does mean you get some more freedom to draw full poses for cool characters. Possibly use for some stickers or something someday.

Is it mean for me to say I feel like this site may live up to dead internet theory more than Twitter does

It's wild that a political party released documents insinuating the active President is a pedophile but it feels like a distraction because the day before they were getting roasted for capitulating to said President AND the President being a pedophile is old news

like what the hell is this

Is it too on the nose to name a character Morrigan

And her friends call her Mori for short

And she dies

Every day I can't decide if I hate Schumer or Jeffries more

Schumer has been useless for longer and is infuriatingly smug about his outdated ways while Jeffries is constantly parading around like he's doing something but when actual policy is on the line he immediately drops his pants
Asked if he thinks Schumer is effective and should keep his job, Hakeem Jeffries replies: "Yes and yes."

“0% woke shit”

a black man with a physical disability leads an environmental terrorist cell trying to save the planet from mega-billionaires and you play as a cross dressing twink femdomed by two different women ending and the final boss against the gayest angel of all time

This may be rude but whoever says Arkham Asylum's Titan Joker and Absolute Joker are the same is not a serious person

I know it won't, but i am starting to believe so much of the games industry would be saved if GTA6 is a colossal failure
