we are so back

[thepuppetandthedevil]

OH MY GOD! There are so many Bendy games that are being created.

[patiann345]

oh?

OH?

OH???

AWESOME COOL GREAT,, SO NOW WE HAVE A WHOPPING DING DING, UH, Z E R O CANON BLACK/POC CHARACTERS!! CAUSE ACCORDING TO MIKE D. HERE, BOOKS AREN'T CANON! JACOB, OUR ONLY CONFIRMED POC, NEVER SHOWED IN BATIM OR BATDR!!!

I feel fucking hysteric right now, you can NOT be serious! You have to be joking!! You HAVE TO BE JOKING.

Real cute that he's using the excuse of him voicing Thomas. Like yes, there's a conversation to be had about white VAs taking roles for POC characters. BUT REALLY??? THAT'S YOUR EXCUSE?? YOU VOICING A CHARACTER WHEN YOU HAD A LIMITED TEAM AND CAST, THAT'S YOUR EXCUSE????????

I'm going. to take this moment to let people educate themselves. I made a post about this before but now's a good time I think.

Educate yourselves, watch these when you can. Understand that this behavior, while probably some of the worst yet, is not particularly surprising coming from the devs. Particurly Mike.

and please, don't buy that fucking novel. Go read the original or the other two in the series. Adrienne Kress is an amazing author and it's terrible that her talent is wasted on an IP that has creators who do shit like THIS.

BENDY: LONE WOLF TRAILER ANALYSIS

This should be the same safe house from BATIM Chapter 3 and BATDS but with the updated BATDR textures.

Ditto with the audio log getting updated.

Interestingly Allison narrates,

"Every day it seems Mr. Drew loses more and more interest in the project. Almost as if something else has captured his imagination."

LONE WOLF takes place between Ink Machine and Dark Revival so this might be our look at the ink beings' reactions to the changes GENT/Wilson have been making to the loop, mistaking it for Joey.

Turrets! Though we don't see them in action in the trailer, I feel like this will work similarly to Bioshock. Turrets attack you until you damage it enough till it goes offline, giving you time and access to hack it to work in your favour instead.

Self-defense mechanics! No need to keep running till you find a miracle station or just perish from no sprint!

Looks like we're going back to Bendy Land!

Ink Widows are now an enemy type!

It could be a stretch to say that this is the bad ending but could be the death animation.

Interestingly, there's a red glow emitting from the ink swallowing Boris.

This is now the second instance of Red in the Bendy series, the first being in a screenshot of The Cage. We could see this further explored and explained there.

Traps! Noticeably in the second pic, Lord Amok's symbol is on the trap. There could be 2 different types of traps, one being placed by Boris and won't damage and one is a environmental type that damages us.

Quality of life update, you can now change your perspective!

We might be able to find materials in lockers to either upgrade or build new weapons and MAYBE more lore.

Boris animatronic enemy! Seeing as we're adventuring through Bendy Land, we might also encounter the Bendy animatronic and possibly an Alice as well.

This is either a new addition to our spawn hub like other rooms in previous updates of Dark Survival OR an arcade room you can find in one of the levels (or both)

The sledgehammer Boris wields earlier in the trailer came be seen next to Butcher Bash so this might be where we find that after playing it as a mini game.

(small note: look at all of them in plush form!)

And of course, the new Ink Demon model. Sad to see the BATIM Ink Demon go but hopefully we also see a new mechanic or two with this new one.

BONUS: ALICE ANGEL AND SAMMY LAWRENCE ARE CONFIRMED TO APPEAR IN LONE WOLF

An official still of Alice can be found in the LW Press Kit on the JDS Website, Sammy is in the gif in the description of the steam page and website.

Don't tell Pastra, Alice's model looks updated here! Way more polished and detailed than BATDR, love it.

Sammy and his banjo!

[the-good-ol-art-corner]

I know a couple of people have already redrawn that one panel, but fuck it we ball-

This is roughly how I thought Norman would look in canon (and Buddy <3) but uh, yeah that dream is squashed ig fml

Reblogs > Likes, Thank You!

Boris actually fighting back?! Eeeeee!!!!😆

I’m so hyped!! It’s such a cool update, this game is going to be so fun! I can’t wait!

[doodle17]

Boris and the Dark Survival getting an update and coming to multiple platforms but then I suddenly realize they're definitely going to replace the Ink Demons model with the Dark Revival one

[reel-fear]

If you want my opinion, I think we should give Lone Wolf the benefit of the doubt, yes it does look a little bit cheap in some areas but the game does look pretty fun and both the art and characters are still on point. Alice and Sammy are also returning so that’s a plus! I think it’s best that we stay optimistic for this game and Bendy’s future.

That's fair and I respect your opinion, I think my thing is I'm worried people are too optimistic about Bendy's future games being better than the ones they've already created because the team behind Bendy is very anti-listening to feedback. Which means it's likely these games won't improve unless fans make a bigger push to be more critical of them and show the devs they won't spend their money unless the team can prove they care about this franchise and aren't gonna let the polish drain just because it makes more money.

I criticize Bendy not because I want it to die or be bad, I only do it because I hope one day either 1. A competitor rises up and gives the fans essentially a better version of Bendy that they deserve and they can use my feedback and others to see where it can be improved. or 2. The bendy team listens to my feedback and the general fandom's to make future games better. Plus generally get their act together.

As it stands the trailer is rushed and cheap, which is bad because a trailer for a game should be the most polished part of the affair. I mean this is what is supposed to convince people to buy the game when it comes out! I had the same problems with The Cage and I'm unhappy to see this becoming a pattern. [I mean that's a game I'm even more confident is going to horribly crash and burn cause I honestly don't know why'd they make a midquel to a game which everyone hated the ending of-]

Look. I understand some people feel a sort of loyalty to the Bendy devs, it's hard not to feel like you're in some sort of friendship when it comes to such a small indie team. But at the end of the day you have to remember defending them when they mess up only gives them more reasons to ignore feedback and most of all you don't know Mike or Meatly as people outside of what they Choose to show in their public image. So when the public image they've crafted is one that's bad and leaves people worried about how the games they're making are gonna turn out. Nobody can be blamed but them. And if you really care about them and/or Bendy it's better to boost feedback even if it's negative.

Like sure Sammy and Malice are returning but look at the treatment they got in Dark Revival! Meatly and Mike have never addressed how poorly done the original characters were in that game and I think it's cause far as they're concerned it was perfectly fine and people are complaining about nothing. [That or enough people didn't seem to care for it to matter to them whether that point was valid or not] Despite the fact Sammy was shot down for a gag after finally speaking up [and was in a ton of Dark Revival marketing material] and Malice was nothing more than a rip off of her chapter 3 self with no interesting changes, we never got to hear her thoughts on how the world is doing, on how she feels now hearing her enemy, the ink demon, was supposedly killed, or on Wilson, the keepers, etc. I mean it was a huge waste and with the promise Sammy will be 'restored to his Chapter 2 glory' I want to call this poor writing out now rather than wait for the cage to come out and pretend I never saw it coming.

Criticism is a good thing for Bendy, we should embrace it rather than shunning or discouraging it. I hope most of us can agree on that. Even if I seem harsh, I would rather lean towards that, than risk going too easy with my words and being ignored by the devs.

IM GOING INSANE /POS

The Ink Demonth: Steam

Pro Tip to any game developer: Don't do what the dev team is doing with Boris and the Dark Survival/Bendy: Lone Wolf and what they did with Secrets of the Machine and force players to scramble to figure out how to avoid losing all their progress or getting locked out of the "playable teaser" (which I've got thoughts on that, but that's for another time)

[patiann345]

OH OK YEAH THEY'RE DOUBLING DOWN? YEAH?? THAT'S WHAT WE WANT??? MIKE "IDENTITIES DON'T MATTER" D. TO DOUBLE DOWN REALLY-

"Oh no see! This was Norman the whole time! He's always been white!" GREAT. WE HAVE AT MOST 2 BLACK CHARACTERS THEN COOL AWESOME RAD.

I'm so genuinely upset and exhausted over this. After the whole "Books ain't canon" tweet I assumed they'd just,, never actually address what people were most upset over (Norman having his melanin snatched) and that'd be that. But nope sure yeah, double down, erase one of 3 black characters.

I can't believe fucking MIKE is the one handling this publically too, who let this happen????

I just. aughhh I have so many thoughts on this, but they're best saved for later or just unsaid. I'm tired and I wanna go hide in a hole for a bit.

Two same pictures sorry
