Fun fact: I love women.

Drew these cause I felt like it 🤷🏼‍♀️. All female lombaxes including my self insert Roslyn AND the former QUEEN of this blog: Kanti Azimuth-Draqoi. She’s only half lombax, and she’s a voltron OC, but she deserves to be there! Then I thought—might as well do all female robots too! So I did. This one included my OC Selina and my self-insert’s precious little catbot based on my irl kitty Emi!

I just love women.

So, remember this post? You know, a discussion of the Sony-exclusive crossover femme fatale trio of my idea PlayStation Venus 3 made up of Talwyn Apogee from Ratchet & Clank, Keira Hagai from Jak & Daxter, and Carmelita Fox from Sly Cooper all together forming a pop women idol trio exclusive to Sony PlayStation called VENUS♀3. And being the chosen main performers for huge upcoming gathering of PlayStation characters (whether first, second or third-party Sony SQAURE (inspired by New York's Time Square).

Well imagine watching a fun scene of the 3 heroines getting together as they go to the gym located in the PlayStationVerse to work on their choreography for Sony SQUARE.

They would be dressed in black sleeveless leotards with sash belts around their waists.

They are wearing leg warmers and silk/satin ballerina slippers both in the color cream.

Talwyn's hair would be tied in a low braided ponytail (similar to classic Lara Croft) with a light red bunny ear-style ribbon tie.

Keira's hair is in low twintails aks pigtails that are tied with violet hair ties that a single flat bead on the front.

Carmelita's is in a high ponytail tied in an orange scrunchie.

Plus, their sash belts are in their represented colors whenever the 3 are together either as Sony-exclusive femme fatales known as PlayStation Venus 3 or just as PlayStationVerse's adult idol trio VENUS♀3.

Color of workout sash belts:

Talwyn Apogee-💛 Yellow 💛

Keira Hagai-🩷 Pink 🩷

Carmelita Fox-🩵 Light Blue 🩵

And their dancing coach will actually be that one fitness warbot from the scene where Ratchet was working out in the R&C 2016 movie.

Carmelita to the left, Talwyn in the middle, and Keira at the right as the 3 divas are in position to work on their choreography.

Like this: 🩵💛🩷

Now imagine in the scene of the 2016 exercise warbot instructing the ladies as they dance as practice.

However, there would be some struggle as Talwyn, Keira and Carmelita's choreography would go wrong depending in some of the dance moves. But not to worry, they would do their best to fix up their errors despite the number of attempts.

During their break time, Talwyn, Keira and Carmelita would have a nice chat as they'd become even closer as crossover BGFFS (BEST GIRLFRIENDS FOREVER).

Then after the break, the ladies would end up having so much fun (even laughing in joy) doing their lovely and sexy dance choreography without any mistakes, which they managed to CLEAR up!

The R&C 2016 movie fitness warbot would also enjoy his job as the beautiful PS ladies' choreography coach so much that he even turned on GROOVY music with a DISCO ball!

And finally, imagine seeing Ratchet, Jak and Sly entering at the gym to not only workout with the exercise equipment, but also to check on their lovers.

The PS2 Hero Trio (Trio of PlayStation Move Heroes) would be dressed in workout tank tops and black shorts. They'd also wear NIKE shoes. (Imagine what color they choose for their NIKEs)

The color of the men's tank tops

Ratchet-💚 Green 💚

Jak-❤️ Red ❤️

Sly-💙 Blue 💙

Those represented colors are from PSMH

❤️💚💙

Well, I hope you all find this post entertaining!

So, I recently found out the mediocre 2016 Ratchet and Clank movie had a post-credits scene & it featured the franchise's best character.

Looks like he ignored the memo not to act like his old PS2 self. Unironically, the best scene in the movie & it's at the crack end of the movie.

Everyone please look at him

[vsgroundnet]

Ayo fellow mutuals and everyone else who sees this, can you help me spread the word? From what I could find, I think nobody found out yet (maybe), but here's the dealio:

On the Ratchet and Clank 2016 game, apparently one can glitch walk on the rails of Kalebo 3 with the Hologuise!

I've already left a comment on a video that I searched a patched glitch, so now I'm leaving the info here!

I'll be checking our how far I can walk more on the hover board track below, since the glitch in question makes it so you can walk there.

Thanks in advance :D

Sora and Ratchet both declined into similar characters in KH3 and R&C 2016, respectively.

From protagonists with bite to uwu nice boys (Ratchet got it worse, but Sora isn't much better).

No idea how hard it would be to replicate, but I found a fun glitch in Ratchet and Clank (2016), apparently.

During the aerial combat section on Pokitaru, I happened to complete the objective at the exact same moment that I died. Instead of setting me back to a checkpoint to complete the section normally, it went ahead to the cutscene that plays after you win. So when I went to jump into the water and head into the sewer, instead of swimming, Ratchet just sank straight to the bottom I ended up fixing it by killing Ratchet, and that sent me back to finish the flying section the right way, but it's still funny this happened

antony makes more reboot nefarious art. no surprises there

It’s always good to have a friend to make you laugh when you’re feeling low.

COMPLETED: Ratchet and Clank (2016)

I briefly played Ratchet and Clank All 4 One with my kids and jt got me pumped for Ratchet and Clank. I thought to play the original game hoping it would have trophies like the Jak games, but no such luck. So I opted for the 2016 remake. It's pretty and fun.

My loyalty to Naughty Dog in the early 2000s made me resistant to try Ratchet games. They compared them to Jak games and I refused to think Insomniac could just come out of no where and win. Once again, I'm sad I didn't start on the games sooner. They're a lot kf fun. And while there's decent production value, the stories usually aren't too impressive. Better humor than Jak, but still lacking the heart of a pixar film (deapite the comparisons).

They changed the opening of the 2016 remake, probably to better align with the not very good movie. But afterward there seems to be a decent amount of similarity. The weapons and characters level up with xo, which I think was added to the more recent games.

The game looks great. Being in PS4 the polygon count is good and the lighting is amazing. Given the levels are based on the simpler PS2 originals the game gets to put more priority into the visuals. And ai live the simplicity. It allows me to just enjoy the game instead of remembering a complicated dance of button pushes and convoluted mechanics.

My biggest disappointment with all ratchet games is the linearity of the levels. The levels always feel like they should be more open and there's opportunity for side quests galore. But it's 95% of the time fighting your way from one end to the other. The few times a level has extra quests or more exploring I get really excited.

Inspired by collecting the Daxter Platinum trophy, I decided to get the platinum all this game. I kinda regret the commitment. The main problem was the groovitron trophy. While I get why this would be a trophy, the game doesn't track which enemies have been made to dance very well. I had to start a whole third or fourth playthrough just to make sure I got all the enemies. And the trophy didn't ping till I uaed it on the boss. I know I used it on the boss on my first playthrough.

While I like the idea of the weapons leveling up, there's a balancing issue. The first two weapons end up being the hardest to max out. Partly because they're not as useful as other weapons. It's like they get xp based on dmg and because they're weak they take forever. The Ryno was the last gun I got and I maxed it within an hour or two. But I was struggling to get the early weapons maxed for a long time.

My other major complaint is the Clank levels. While the puzzle bits are kinda fun and a nice break, they don't really help you advance you leveling. The main loop is shoot stuff to level up your guns to shoot more stuff. Clanks missions don't involve shooting or contributing to the levels. So it fewls like a distraction or inconvenience.

To fix it, the game should offer party xp. So as you complete objects or defeat enemies, you gain a little bit of party xp that can be applied to any weapon. So even if you only use the ryno, you can still level up other guns. And when you're stuck using Clank, you can still work towards your weapon goals.

I will see about the story, I liked the idea of the baddie being a rich shithead destroying planets so he could custom design vanity planets. This is the sorta woke plot I want to see in video games. Its a reminder that billionaires are bad. Not just because they're rich, but because of their greed (Luke 21:1-4).

So anyway, it's a fun game with great graphics. It's relaxing with an okish story. For the platinum chasers, it would have been nice to have some improvements.

So I finally decided to play that Ratchet & Clank game that came out in 2016 (to be more specific, that movie tie-in game) that I received for free back in 2021, through that campaign called #PlayAtHome that PlayStation offered some games for free during the pandemic.

The only thing I can say is that it's not a bad game, but I didn't like it very much at the same time.

Judging that after this game, Insomniac Games went directly to making the Spider-Man game, I can assume that they learned a lot from both games (Spider-Man and Ratchet & Clank from 2016) and they applied everything they learned in the new Ratchet & Clank game.

[exposingtheidiocy]

Exactly! Watering them down doesn't make them seem more upstanding, a better person, whatever - it makes them a shell of their former selves at best. Sora after KH2 is not a real character, he feels really artificial, especially compared to his earlier selves, he did not start out how he did now. "Gag me" indeed!

KH2 Sora is and always will be amongst the two worst versions of the character.

He's an edgy angry yet smug jackass who thinks he's better than everyone, he insults and mocks everyone even his allies and if not he just ignores them.
