Well... I mean we got some of it! 60 fps, supposedly even in areas like Korok forest! We also have 1440p resolve and HDR!

I've heard that we have increased LOD distance, but I don't think I've heard anything about lighting, textures, or texture filtering

Hobbes @hobbles.bsky.social · Apr 2

I know we won't, but in the Direct I'd love to see updated BotW/TotK for Switch 2 with:
- Higher res textures (especially for cliffs)
- Better texture filtering
- Increased LOD distance (especially for grass)
- Stable 60fps (VRR?)
- Greater than 1200p resolve
- HDR
- Improved lighting/shadows

MORE BRAINROT
This was based on a convo between a friend and i about how Grimora looked like she'd fit in the setting of "Pride and prejudice and zombies"

so of course i had to make a whole movie night comic over it.

....

This was way too much of an idea and i should have stopped myself.

Grimora approaches Royal Dominguez as he watches out a window, telescope in hand.

Grimora: "Tell me Royal, any signs of our dear challenger yet? I am quite excited to see those "Movies" she mentioned"

Royal: "Nothing seen from the crows nest yet Ma'am. ...Wait a second."

Royal turns so his voice can reach those inside the crypt

royal: "CHALLENGER APPROACHING FROM THE STARBOARD BOW"

Grimora's reaches for Royals telscope.

Grimora: "Splendid, would you mind if i take a look?"

Royal: "Of course Lady Grimora"

Grimora: "Would you look at that! There she is! And she brought one of Magnificus' mage pupils and is that... P03?!?"

While Grimora is speaking, The lonely wizard, the challenger, and an out of frame p03 are seen walking along a trail. The lonely wizard stops to examin a set of skeletal hands popping out of the ground while the challenger worries over him. by the next panel the lens is focused on p03 while the challenger and the lonely wizard are seen recoiling, presumably the hands tried to grab them.

Grimora lowers the telescope and worries over the situation with royal

Royal: "Now what's the challenger doing bringing that bucket of bolts to our turf?"

Grimora: "... I am unsure. I would not think he would come all this way just to enjoy this "movie night" with us."

royal: "but don't go starting any fights just yet. Those to be your orders correct?"

Grimora: "Yes."

The panel changes and we see the challenger laughing about the previous encounter while the lonely wizard watches the ground worriedly. P03 looks at the pair annoyed by the delay.

Now done with their journey the three enter the crypt with The challenger shouting. "Guess whose back! And with some friends for movie night."

The lonely wizard is curious about the crypt while P03 looks absolutely done with the situation.

Challenger: "INTRODUCING! All the way from the mage tower they may not know their name anymore but they know how to have fun!" more quietly "Though i've been calling them "Blue" and they seem to respond well to it."
"And our VIP, the scrybe of technology himself, P03!! He has very generously offered his wifi and his monitor to play our movies for tonight! Make sure you give him your thanks!"

Grimora, putting her hand on P03's shoulder: "Well, as one scrybe to another, i give you my sincere thanks for taking time away from your factory to help us make our movie night a success"

P03: "Yeah, whatever. Let's get this over with so i can get back to doing something actually useful. You do absolutely owe me for this though.

Grimora: "Movie night's" In the trader's room. Head on in and I'll be there in just a moment!"
As the lonely wizard and p03 make their way to the room, grimora stops the challanger by gently grabby her wrist as she passes by.

Grimora, whispering: "Do tell me, how on earth did you manage to get P03 to volunteer his face as a tv for our "movie night"?

Challenger: "Oh that? It was much easier than you think. I made a bet with him, whoever won best 2 out of 3 would win. And he was SO sure he would win. but then he lost once... twice... each time by oh, i don't know. only a few hundred points!!

The challenger shows off her overpowered ouroboros card with 300 attack and 300 damage. Grimora tries to hold in her laugh but burst into laughter.

Grimora: "How absolutely brutal! I almost wish i could've seen his face when he lost!"

Challenger: Best part is, I told him i'd forgive his debt if he came and helped us out for a few hours."

Grimora: "Well, you little trickster, We'd better get to the "movie" room before P03 has a chance to change his mind."

Panel 1 is labeled "First viewing, Pride and prejudice"

Grimora, her 3 ghouls, the trader, The lonely wizard, and the challenger are all sat on boxes in the traders room while P03 sits across from them, playing the movie.

(From left to right)
Kaycee Ghoul sits shivering, having trouble paying attention

The trader leans against a box, watching but impossible to tell if they are actually enjoying the movie or not.

Grimora is having a good time engaging with the movie, remarking "Oh to be so young and gaurded. Always something to prove"

Royal domiguez is more skeptical. saying "this is what you landlubbers handle things? Stuff like this is why i will always prefer life at sea"

the lonely wizards sits behind the challenger. The challenger is letting them fidget with her hair to keep (the lonely wizard) from getting to hyper during the movie.

Saywer Pattel watches on calmly.

Panel 2 is labeled "second viewing, Pride and prejudice and zombies"

Grimora, her 3 ghouls, the trader, The lonely wizard, and the challenger are all sat on boxes in the traders room while P03 sits across from them, playing the movie.

(From left to right)
Kaycee Ghoul sits shivering, though between the candle by them and the pelts layered ontop of them, it appears efforts have been made to make them feel warmer

The trader, seeing a sudden swing of royal dominguez's weapon, draws her own knife and keeps an eye on the situation.

Grimora is laughing, both at the movie and royal dominguez's reaction to the fights.

Royal domiguez is scolding the movie characters for their sword fighting skills. "You can't fight your foes with a weak stance like that! If you want to protect your friends there you must use your whole body in the swing of your sword."

the lonely wizard and the challenger jump back as the sword swings.

At the end grimora, the challenger p03 discuss the experiance.

Grimora: "well, i think it's safe to say the "movie night" was a success! Should we have another one, we ca…

Behold! The (way belated) results of My Pokémon art study!!

This was done for me and my closest besties, all of theirs were done by Christmas but I got burned out and didn't finish my own until just a few days ago XD.

A man sits in a green themed room. The man has super saiyan-esque golden hair and is wearing primarily red and black gym clothes.
on the wall in the back is a collection of contest badges gathered for his Pokémon as well as a miscellaneous wrestling belt.
On the wall by his bed is a collection of fighting type pokemon, photos of his pokemon at the contest hall, and a poster for a movie "Hawlucha, The Final Bell"

Pokemon, left to right:
Buzzswole, Machamp, Grimmsnarl, Honchkrow, shiny Sandalite, Obstagoon.

Pokémon trainer in a purple room with zygarde themed computer parts and lighting hangs out with his pokemon while gaming.
Furret is trying to get his attention while umbreon schemes on how to play with snom. Arcanine is babysitting two woopers while a Mimikyu rests snuggly in a shelf.

Pokémon, top to bottom, left to right:
Mimikyu
Arcanine, wooper (paldean), wooper (standard), furret, umbreon, snom

A pokemon trainer rests snuggly against her mabostiff as her Arcanine and yamper play tug of war in the background. The other pokemon seem at ease around this scene, clearly this is not the first time the group has used the trainer's room as a playground.

Minior meteors hang by the window.

pokemon top to bottom, left to right
Arcanine, yamper, absol, mabostiff, eevee,
Cyclizar

A pokemon trainer with moon shaped bangs is at her compter when she is disrupted by her absol alerting her (and the whole room) to zoroark and gengar working together to steal some snacks.
In the background on the wall is some scribblings about math and ultra wormholes.

This beast is my first drawing for 2025! I started it mid December. It’s Humdinger but Humbigger (what he looks like in his heart 💚)

A large green dragon stands on all fours. He had large claws. Large fangs. A brown speckled fin that starts at his forehead and passes the tip of his tail. He has a small amount of red spots in his face, wrists, knees, shoulders, and wings. His wings are styled like bat wings. His wings are bigger than his body. His wings are clawed. He has a long neck and long tail. He has dark eye brows. His eyes are pale without pupils. He stands proud. His stomach is pale compared to the rest of his body. His wings are greyish. The tips of his wing fingers are black. He has black gums slightly visible.

What else is there to say about Ebee? Any guilt she may suppress, any intuition she has, for whatever reason, does not outweigh her desire to remain as she is. Without a trigger, she would remain that way likely until the consequences of her inaction were too much to ignore. And she is not alone.

On the left, a tree branch softly lit by a yellow glow, on the right, a fightened looking black and white cat, her fit stands on end, her eyes are white, green with yellow around small slit pupils, her mouth is agape, a speech bubble indicates she is shocked but speechless, it reads simply "...?!" Behind her, the darkness of the night peaks through the soft light. Stylized shading, dark high contrasting shadows and simple shapes.

(Old art, 2020?) Ebee running in a white void, darkness chases behind her in a shattered looking fog, floating around her, keeping speed, are two ghosts that share her shape, a black one with yellow eyes, and a white one with green eyes, they appear emotionless while she looks desperate to distance herself from them and the darkness behind her.

the gradual replacement of “exchanging money for goods” with “exchanging money for a license to use goods as a service” has been one low key one of the worst changes of the 21st century

bruceparker25.bsky.social @bruceparker25.bsky.social · Dec 2

this is exactly why i still buy discs in 2023. it's crazy to think that we are reaching a point where piracy will be the only option to own media once dvds and blu-rays are gone.

Felt Witchy this Wednesday so I thought i'd doodle out a couple bat themed witches to celebrate the season

I wanna make "Witchy Wednesday" a thing where i either draw these three's antics or new witches but idk with my hectic schedule

A woman, a child, and a third person walk together. The adults on either end carry broom-sticks and wear bat themed witches hat.
The one on the left has a modern and pastel bat themed outfit while the one on the right has more traditional witchy clothing.
In the middle is a fluffy white haired child roughly designed off a Honduran white bat.
