“It’s dangerous to go alone! Take this.”

Kakariko Village, a friendly and inclusive Zelda Discord server, is hosting a special contest for artists in the Zelda community!

Design a Link Contest

Imagine you’re put in charge of the next mainline Zelda game!

What would the setting be?

What would the story be like?

How does Link’s design reflect these things?

Describe the setting and story of this new Zelda game using as much detail as possible to immerse us in the game’s world. Then, you’ll draw concept art for Link, explaining how their design fits into the game’s setting and narrative.

The server will vote through a form, where people can rate each other’s designs on a 5 star system based on these criteria. Creativity in setting, story and character design is the most important part here. Use this as an opportunity to bring your dream Zelda game to life!

The submission period will be from August 30th to October 27th in the contest channel of the Kakariko Village server. After the submission period is over, the voting period will be from October 28th to November 4th, after which winners will be decided. Participants can vote, but not for their own entries. Only members of the Kakariko Village Discord server are allowed to vote.

Prizes for the Design a Link Contest:

1st place - First pick of either Art and Artifacts or Encyclopedia, or a $20 Amazon gift card 2nd place - Art and Artifacts or Encyclopedia, depending on which was chosen, or a $10 Amazon gift card 3rd place - a Zelda-themed gift item or free icon from tomearts

Join Kakariko Village and our small, but growing community of Zelda fans! Let’s celebrate the series we all love together- just click the link below to join the server.

unpopular opinion maybe but I think purity culture and cancel culture have gone too far, and they’ve started to become so ugly and toxic. let’s bring back critical thinking, patience with others, and opportunity for growth

Femme bi women married to men still have stories about queerness to tell that are worth hearing.

Predictably, people are throwing around the word “entitled” when it comes to video games again, and the Pokemon fandom was already notorious for telling people to “shut up and be grateful for what you have”.

NO.

It isn’t “entitled” to expect quality for the MONEY YOU ARE SPENDING ON A PRODUCT. It isn’t entitled to expect a product creator to keep up their end of a transaction. Sword and Shield are actually going to cost more money for less content. Players are expected to spend $60 on the game, then pay an extra recurring fee to use the online functionality, which has always been free in past games, and then you are expected to pay recurring for Pokemon Home on top of that if you want to get your Pokemon off of the 3DS before it dies. From Home, the Pokemon have nowhere to go, as the trip from 3DS to Home is one way. You must then keep paying for Home and hope that in the next 2-4 years, the rest of your collection is able to be transferred to the next games. Due to the new GF policy of scrubbing the Pokemon data for each game going forward, that is not promised. Your collection will get splintered across several generations, with Home being the only app where they are confirmed to be all in one place, and the cost is recurring. There is no promise that Sword and Shield have to be compatible with Gen 4 remakes or whatever comes next, so hoarding parts of your collection on a cartridge and hoping for trading to save you isn’t even necessarily viable. And even in the trading scenario, you have to still pay for the Switch Online subscription, so you’re being charged extra either way.

Meanwhile, at E-FUCKING-3, we have been shown pivoting models, like back in Gen 6 on the 3DS. We have been shown that the older Pokemon models were all imported from 3DS and still have their same animations. We have been shown that there are still generic attack animations. We have been shown models popping into existence, some with massive lag. We have been shown lighting errors on terrain and trees. WE HAVE BEEN SHOWN WINGULLS T-POSING, PIVOTING, AND SLIDING ACROSS THE MAP. I AM NOT PAYING $60 FOR THAT. If they couldn’t handle it, they should have delayed the game to make it better, or reduced the price to match what they were able to produce. And if Nintendo was pressuring them into a release this year, then this is their fault, too. There is no excuse for the mess that was shown, and then having the Dex get cut just to even reach that quality. DELAY THIS GAME.

SO! Anext was a blast! got lots of compliments on the ace cape for julia and had fun at the summer alt photoshoot (even if i got a bit crispy afterwards. wear sunscreen yall).

tbh the most fun part of this was the thracia drinking game: the crew would all take a sip if: -an attack missed -an enemy crit -we had to reset/a unit died -bad lv up and we had to pass around the controller every phase

[archsagepelleas]

happy pride month!!!
