Playing oot and reaching Zelda, I realize that ootLink is one of the few Links taller than his Zelda
#at least on the N64#his knees are bending and he’s still taller than her#I guess he was taller when Zelda was Sheik too#congrats Skord Link and Oot Link. y’all are tall!#smiles rambles

yea idk. i generally liked datv, combat/exploring in particular was for me extremely fun. did a mage on underdog. The game ran flawlessly on launch day with a mid gaming rig, which is unfortunately not the fucking norm anymore. I personally think it was quite pretty, and did see stylization that tied it backwards to other games.
the game has many flaws in culture, characterization, writing, but i can recognize that, be critical of it, and still enjoy it. cause it's a just a fucking video game at the end of the day. I almost wish it wasn't a dragon age game cause it just brings so much fucking baggage along side it.
I will say, that not enough of you are prepared for what private equity/corporate money will continue to do to the quality of games from big studios. I am going to enjoy this bit of representation, even if flawed, for now because the american apocalypse is on the immediate horizon and I doubt we'll see a big studio in this country with an NB character at the forefront in the next decade.
#I 100% understand why some folks don't like it#just please don't think I'm stupid because I do#I just remember before times when 90% of games were white male protags and big titted women#I have lived through a life time of playing games starting at the n64 harvest moon where you could only be a boy romancing girls#only recently am I finding things that are at least in proximity to what I want out of a game#dragon age the veilguard#datv thoughts#There is one big choice in the game that literally pissed me off so much I almost get a migraine thinking about it#but I weirdly don't see anyone complaining about it

"With my eternal life, I will see the world through to its end. Until everyone who won't like me is gone."
Warm-up doodles that got me too invested at some point. I love Porky Minch, he's one of my favorite characters in the Mother series.
(The fifth Porky is based on a concept/artistic rendition for his appearance in the canceled N64 version of Mother 3. It's really cool, and it also inspired the way I drew his older body. You can find it here [x] )
#earthbound#mother 3#porky minch#mother series#mother 2#pokey minch#crazy good villain#also pretty tragic in his own right#forgive how minuscule the initial doodles are#they weren't meant to be a full piece#that's why it's all drawn in one layer anyway#but at least I ended up doing this thing where it gets bigger the further in time it is#so I guess it still ended up working out#also I loooove the N64 porky concept. it felt right to include#killer mech design and a believable evolution for the man himself#val-arts#val-post

Best 'Classic' Trek Theme
#star trek#star trek voyager#ds9#star trek deep space nine#tng#TOS#Enterprise#trek#Insurrection is a terrible move but I used to play emulated N64 Harvest moon listening to that score#and it's fantastic#yes faith of the heart was originally from Patch Adams#the least of its sins?#'classic' trek is defined here as every Trek series with a living appearance by Majel Barret#Except Star Trek '09 because that doesn't count as classic Trek that would be silly

…Once more!…
…don’t worry this is the last one I swear then I’ll stop bringing dead games back to conscious memory…
Who remembers Castlevania Curse of Darkness? (I reckon a fair number of you since this one has an existing tag it just gets ignored a lot)
…I really like this one, it’s actually my favorite of the 3D-vanias (I had no love for Lord of Shadows.. more like l…l-load of shat ohs… gotem) mainly for the shear variety in combat options you have and the Innocent Devil System. True the back tracking and gathering the mats to make certain I.Ds was a pain in the rect but the evolution tree forcing me to play with different weapon types just to see what interesting new form my already forged Devils will take made it fun. The abundance of chairs all around the game world that existed just to be sat in to see a new animation was fun. The secret little spots you could stand in to heal or knock into to get a little reward was fun. THE CHARACTER DESIGNS WERE FUN! Look at these two! These two deserve to be remembered and brought back on a modern console! Isaac alone would thrive on Tumblr!
It is a crime that the Netflix series got to put its hands on this game but we still haven’t gotten a single remake/remaster/rerelease forever trapping this game on the PS2 and Xbox.
#nostalgia#does anyone remember this#castlevania#castlevania curse of darkness#this game deserves a remaster#at least it wasn’t as bad as Lament of Innocence D:<#…I’m very biased let that dig at Lament slide <.<;#also no I don’t dislike the N64 games I just like this one more

People are right GameCube version of majoras mask is indeed the worst
I redid all the side quest and main quest I did last time before it crashed by talking to the wounded soldier to get the stone mask ( I got the zora mask, did Romani ranch side quest and got the Garo master mask before it crashed the first time)
I constantly saved it in between quests by owl statues in my second play through, (game did save what I did btw I had to keep editing out to even save it), did a last save before Cremias side quest, it crashed after I did it and im back to clock town after the snow head temple practically back to square one :/ as if I didn't redo all of that
Honestly just try to get the wii virtual console wad file of play it on switch online
So much better than the constant awful crashing in the GameCube version
#honestly madding especially with this game and its shitty save system#love majoras mask awesome game but it's actually so annoying to lose all the progress and then move to wii virtual or n64 orginal cause#Jesus it's just BLEH#imma take a break of the orginal vers#im still doing the 3d remake replay through and im enjoying it a lot more cause at least its stable enough not to crash every five mins💀#despite it having some problems with remake changes yknow yknow#majoras mask#rambles#skippost#skippable

i just had a dream where i had been yard sale shopping at someones house, and they had this big cardboard box full of N64 games, and on the box had the writing "3 games have water damage" and listed the serial numbers for each cartridge rather than listing the names. anyway i don't remember a lot of the cartridges names beyond one clearly being "Super Mario 64 DS", which even in the dream i was confused by. within the box was another mario title that was similar to mario pinball and mario golf, and came with a miniature set you had to put together and included little fence posts you had to click into the board to ensure the marble wouldn't fall out during play.
anyway so im curious about a lot of these N64 games, since ive never heard of them, and i wanted to see if they were custom or bootlegs. a seperate family at the sale is looking at a miniature house of sorts as im pulling out my phone to look up the names of these games. im not even able to type anything in before i hear two giant concrete cylinders hit the floor from just around the corner of the basement. that's right. the mother fucking waterwraith appeared
#dream posting#i get dreams sometimes of looking at or finding video games that. subconsciously. i know arent real games.#or at the very least. dream me is like ''oh i didnt know this game existed''#like i remember a dream where i went to my aunts house (who lived in a house i use to live in) and she had some of our games#and one was some wario game for the N64#anyway i think the water wraith was specifically added to the dream so i wouldnt find out if the games were fake or not#the yard salers trick.#looking up mario super pinball golf ay? well lets see what the water wraith has to say about that.#specifically i remember hearing the exact noise the water wraith plays as he descends from the sky. and the thud of the cylinders.#i did eventually see him start rolling his way into the room. so it was indeed the actual water wraith.#the rest of the dream was just me trying to escape their labyrinth of a house. where i had somehow managed to get up to their top floor#and by that point i think my brain couldnt keep up with the insane shit going on and i woke up soon after#beware curious yard sale shoppers. lest ye see the water wraith.

my goal with all my Thralls designs, especially those that appear in part 1 (yes there are parts, don't ask..........), is that you could reduce them to 30 polygons and they would still somewhat read as those characters. so Big Shapes it is.
#thoughts#thralls of power#animatic project#this is the reason behind serielle's absolutely stupid hairdo#this would read well in a N64 scenario. and I'm trying to maintain that sort of cohesion#Maddsen is almost too tame for the general artistic vibe#I tried to give him a stupid necklace that is way too big and ornate and to limit details#but#(also my new designs don't look nearly sweaty enough)#(all the oot characters feel sweaty to me for some reason)#(I think it's the concept art's fault the way they are rendered make them feel sweaty)#(also: not enough knees nor belly buttons showing. everyone's knees are out in this game. or at least the leg shape is emphasized)#(totk had the feet and oot had the knees.... TP had the tits.)#(this series has range. or something)

majoras mask twilight princess and tears of the kingdom are like three very distinct shades of "dark zelda game" so when a zelda game is considered "dark like majoras mask" it's not true because majoras mask was a very specific type of dark.
#dark with color#least serious#wild#gary.txt#mm is if that makes sense. like tp looks like the classic grimdark video game and totk's depths are literally pitch black#while mm had a really striking contrast. and this is just talking about color palettes#also mm is probably the in tone which i think adds to the overall unsettling and distinct feel to the game#i would also say the n64 graphics add to it but i dont think the 3ds graphics take away anything#anyways i want a new zelda game set in termina. imagine open world termina#i would want the world to be less and more a world with cities and civilization#because a big charm of clock town is how big it is. imagine that in open world#OH MY GOD I KEEP FORGETTING HOW MUCH TUMBLR HATES QUOTATION MARKS IN TAGS#listen im not typing that shit up again. decipher it yourself

doing a little data management on the switch and feeling tender about video games
#like#as a concept#me: oh I forgot we have the online service... [browsing virtual console stuff] oh-- kirby... superstar saga.... ouughh ;n;#and then archiving some stuff to make sure there's room for the n64 and gba platform: ooouugh botw...! skyrim...!! wandersong......!!#JUST-- nostalgia for childhood games and also warmth for newer games#and also a positive wistfulness about indie games I bought on sale and haven't tried yet#maybe this year I remember that I like bideo james#I spend so much time just languishing on social media and thinking 'I really Should be drawing or something' and then not doing it#like... if I'm going to sit around being completely useless I should at LEAST be having fun??#me @me why don't you replay superstar saga and maybe you'll calm down#(well-- after I beat mario rpg. and also I have baldygate to get back into!! but YOU know)#about me

girls who would not fit into a ps1 game
#soda offers you a can#i've done some of the jankest shit to axe the tri count as much as i can muster rn#i watched like a vid on hardware limitations of ps1 and n64 that said a tri count of 590-620 was common and. well. yeag#that said im going for whatever the fuck the digimon games were doing and from like casual observation + the models i downloaded#i think those had a few more tris to them like in general?#at least like from what i've seen of digimon world 2 that game tends to chug when it busts out multiple models so ???#idk i might try to cut out a bit more geometry tomorrow or something im getting eepy

My ex/roommate moved out and while I am kinda sad and now lonely in a house by myself I took the time to reorganize after a few days and make the space mine again.
And its really refreshing to see my nerd collection fill up a bookshelf just like my magic collection has.
Nana holding my vibe (no i didn't edit a wall mount off the wall sh my paint is just pixel-y)
#the oldest thing would be the n64 which I've had since age 6 :3#it still works the Dreamcast probably doesn't tho :c#idek what to tag this as#home shit#actually no oldest would be my nanny on the magic shelf but i mean#anyway i have a 70 inch monitor now at least
