project update

The lore post is being delayed. I have been doing some major rewrites and streamlining certain lore and plot points. Things I had planned have been removed or changed. I'm trying to tighten things up and remove extra fluff that does not add anything but extra confusion with the only payoff of kinda cool and re-focus that effort into things that affect the plot more or feel more connected to the wider world.

If you're wondering what was removed, originally, I was planning on adding Powerlinx like the Energon trilogy, but instead of just minicons, other bots could also combine in a similar way. This was a really fun concept I really liked to explore. But at the end of the day, it often went underutilized in the plots I made, and as the AU developed, the lore and story I told became more and more complex and pulled itself away from normal tf lore, and the powerlinx concept got pushed to the side becoming an unnecessary underused blob of complexity instead of naturally fitting into plots often it felt stapled on, I do love this concept I really do, but it's become obsolete in my current draft.

If you're wondering about what the lore post was about, it was Powerlinx. I had some of the art done for it and all the text, but while making this, I started to realize how it dragged my work down instead of pushing it forward.

The plan now is to focus on the things I think my story does well plot-wise and lore-wise. The Powerlinx concept was added when things were much more bare-bones, but I have a lot of fun concepts now that fit together much better with each other and the overall plot; I am excited to share. I will be doing another lore post based on another thing from my AU that I am confident about, along with working on that mini-test comic. I'm kinda burnt out from working on that lore post I never finished, so I will be doing some random au art for a bit, taking a break from bigger projects.

If you would like to see some of the cut Powerlinx art and concepts, I have a link to some of it; not all of it can be shared due to spoiler reasons, but you can have a peak into what was to be but never was.
