digitalpoltergeist replied to your photoset: I took better screens today

It looks like it’s still doing really well development-wise! How’re the controls feeling lately? I haven’t played in forever >w>;

They just got the game out of early-access on steam so yea theyre doing ver good, and they got the songs from Naganuma (they good)

the controls are rly good but that might also just be cause im used to playing the game, but compared to the rly early alpha, its rly good.

i havent reached the new areas they added but im working on it huhue

This always frustrated me because my boss is nowhere near the vicinity of white passing like Asha what the fuck

!!! like this is where i honestly can’t believe they hecked up so bad, the implications of Asha having ‘very specific concerns’ about the boss and then potentially white washing them is just... like jfc Vol did you not think this through even a little?

It's such a 'yikes' moment to me every time. It feels especially awful when they turn Shay (who is nonbinary and femme-leaning) to a white dude with a goatee. Secondarily, when they turn Hannah into a super-skinny white lady. Like, I get they were going for a gag, but way to make anyone whose boss isn't the 'default' potentially feel othered.                

oh man, i’m ashamed to admit i’d never thought of the awful gender flubbing potential too :( do you headcanon the whole mess as going differently or do Hannah and Shay have to have a talk with Asha afterwards?

digitalpoltergeist replied to your post “three and a half years later and i still dont really understand why...”

I just don't understand how completely replacing the Boss with a new model was -that much less- work than mirroring them and just slapping an eyepatch and goatee on. I still headcanon that scene differently. I can't think of a single reason to take it at face value.              

for real tho, i dont get why they didn’t just mirror the boss. it makes little to no sense to me D:

i headcanon it differently too, i just... i dont get the point. ‘Ms. X’ is just Lux in an eyepatch, bionic arm, and goatee, and regular Lux spends at least five to ten minutes randomly going "the arm is cool, but a goatee, Asha?!?!"

I have this theory that Asha is super bad with faces, like the kind if she doesn't see them regularly she'll forget what they really look like and she just built the boss into a "default" evil look

mannn, i love how the fandom uses the series’ numerous writing disasters as opportunities to headcanon all kinds of nifty things xD

Can I get 5, 14, and 39 (:U) for the upcoming MHW character?

5. On an average day, what can be found in your character’s pockets?

Many potions (and max potions), a lot of whetstones, bitterbugs, demondrugs/armorskins, lifecrystals, a demon horn sometimes, rations, maps, more whetstones, dung bombs, paintballs and a whole lotta crap that depends a lot on the quest, and barrel bombs +....tho i guess that doesn’t fit in pockets technically. Whetstones.

14. Does your character remember names or faces easier?

Faces I think, mostly because in Monster Hunter you tend to know people more by their profession or nickname than by their actual name. 

39. Has your character ever been bitten by an animal? How were they affected (or unaffected)?

YES IT’S PART OF THE JOB DESCRIPTION

But yes regularly =w= And as probably a dual blades user (not sure yet but it’s my main so), he’s far too often in the range of teeth. 

More seriously though, I consider him an experienced hunter who has faced Elder Dragons before, but I have to have him start in Low Rank at the beginning of the story, so some time before the game’s story starts he suffer a really bad full-body bite from an invading monster (that possibly gets infected too cuz nasty rotten area) that puts him out of commission for a while and forces him to take on the Low Rank quests when he’s back on his feet as rehabilitation, and he takes on a mentor role to a new hunter to get back into the swing of things. He’s not personally affected by it once it’s healed but it does leave a huge bite scar on his chest.

Can he still flex though. Asking for a friend.

(more specifically his upper arm is still fleshy cause he “just” lost his forearm)

digitalpoltergeist replied to your post:[[MOR] tbh now that I think about it why are...

Volition seems very aware of our investments in our PCs; I doubt they’d drop the main franchise completely. That said though, I don’t mind them mixing it up in the mean time. Variety in game output certainly wouldn’t hurt their creativity moving forward.

yeah, I can get that. now that I’ve taken it in, I don’t mind AoM as a spinoff. the SR universe can definitely be expanded upon in other games and like you said, changing stuff around, experimenting w/ new things is great too.

it’s just that people are immediately like “omg this means the main series is dead for sure, let it go” like?? last I checked, SR4 only came out 3 years ago w/ it’s last DLC (GOoH) releasing just last January. a while, yeah, but not so long that the series is suddenly dead?

I feel too many things for SR help

I don't know anything about Shadowrun but I can still offer you a Fun Tip: the current Humble Jumbo Bundle has three different Shadowrun games that you can score for under 8 bucks. Otherwise they're like 15-20 bucks each on Steam. There's only like 18 hours left in the sale though.

i have a whopping 2 dollars to my name
