like i wouldnt mind like. Not having new linear games post 5 its judt that sims 4 wasnt even supposed to Be The Sims 4 it was a last minute pivot and the base code is so outdated and was broken On launch so like. i just wish we could have the final actual sims game be like. one that was always intented to be a major sims release AND be intended to be so long term . yk
#i dont even want like. Ooh major graphical updates whatever if sims 5 was announced and they looked photorealizstic id hurl i wouldnt play#it#my ideal would ig be sims 4 with a touch more realism style wise. if this makes sense#like its a bittt too cartoony for me but i like the like. Clay hair or whatever SJFNFJ. and i think having it be simple in basegame means#you can customize it easier + itd run better on more pcs#so im fine eith that. i would nottt want it more cartoony#i also like. I understand the sims is like. an all ages game i do sometimes wish that the animations in 4 were a bit toned down#like i dont mind silly goofy wacky stuff i think its fun and like. The sims has always been a bit sillay yk. but the overexaggerated#animations r sometimes like -_-.... to me. but thats personal preference#IDK. the tags that show up when i type idk r so funny. do i ever know anything. sources say no#BUT ya i just rly wish like. if this is what they wanna do i wish theyd give us One more full game give it lots of time and love and rly rly#focus on having it excel at like. being this partnof the sims#since they wanna have like. Other sims games that have online features and multiplayer and everything. they could use that to make sure that#ts5 was Rly solid as a foundation and as like. ykwim..... they could plan updates for the future And dlc or whatever and i just think itd be#a better move than trying to make sims 4 happen#bc i judt dont think With all the updates in the world. sims 4 wont ever be like. what it couldve been. yk. i just dont think you can make#it work without Fullllyyyy just starting over.#and at this point with like..so many modders and stuff and everything and how much dlc there is thatd be impossible Esp if they keep#releasing new stuff which. They will ^_^#idk. im excited for some other lifesim games im keeping my eye out#but i rly do love the sims and i just wish that it could be as good as it could be. It has such a huge budget and team and like. if ea would#stop just trying to make as much money as possible off it i feel like they could make Such an amazing game. not to put down indie gamedevs#at all the games jve been looking at look Incredible like.. yk. but the fact those games are so good eith FAR smaller teams and budgets is#like. imagine what we could have if the sims had that amt of care and time put into it.#but whatever whatever whatever. sorry im just rambling#again ik what i would want from my platonic ideal of a sims game isnt what everyone would eant#but idk. i feel like another good step might be like. making the other sims games more available and updating them so they run better on#modern pcs. but i dont think thatll ever happen DNDNFJFNFN.

āI am back!!!āØ
ANDDD since the majority voted āyesā in the last poll I did, Iām going to do a dtiys! Which will be this one:
Oh, and the rules and explanation of tdiys are in the text below (click for 'more' ā)! Good luck to the participants, I love you all so much!!ā¤ļø
Explanation:
DTIYS stands for āDraw This In Your Styleā. It's a popular art challenge where artists redraw a piece of art in their own style. DTIYS challenges are often used by artists on Instagram to celebrate milestones or to support other artists [which, in this case, I am celebrating my āreturnā].
How it works:
An artist chooses a piece of art to redraw.
The artist sets instructions for the challenge, such as the medium to use or the overall aesthetic.
Other artists create their own version of the piece and post it with the specified hashtag.
The artist selects the winners and announces them.
Now that you guys know a little about how it works, I will tell you some simple and āalready expectedā rules:
You can't steal or do it the same way as me, you have to do it YOUR style (because that's the challenge).
The redraw must have the same characteristics as the original drawing. For example, the colors must be similar or the same.
You can add and change things, but donāt āstrayā too far from the original design and features.
Don't forget to tag me AND use the hashtag '#melloly dtiys'! Or if you don't want to post, just send me a private chat or ask! (and if you don't want me to say your name if you "win", please let me know and I'll make the drawing's artist anonymous!)
About the winners and the end date of the competition:
The competition will end on 03/23/25. There will be 3 winners, however, I will only draw (their own) OCs!
An art of your OC in my normal and detailed style (example (ā).
An art of your OC in my normal but simple style (example (ā).
A art of your OC in my chibi style (example (ā).
Thank you very much for reading and, again, good luck to the participants!!! (and if you still have any questions, just call dm and ask!!)š
-Melissa, Designer.
#AAAAAA I'M BACK-#after ONE MONTH without posting. I'm back!!#I know. I know. It took me a while but.. I was taking a break from the blog...#It's hard to make and post drawings every day and still not earn a penny for it. yk?#so.. yeah... I had to do it..#BUT...... at least now I can entertain you with dtiys! which I hope at least someone does and it's not like last time....#and yeah-#I will have new things on the blog. AND the first chapter of mel and prim's lore will be released THIS WEEK!!!#so- I hope you guys like the new things that are going to come and much more the lore I'm doing.#that I'm really putting a lot of effort into making the chapters and... anyway..#have a wonderful day and good luck to the participants!!!š#i'm mel and this is my blogāļø#my art blog#art#my art#art mel#my art style#primloly#mel loly d.w#primrose goldenflower#oc stuff#my oc character#melloly dtiys#(āthat's the tag everyone!!!#dtiyschallenge#dtiysart#dtiys challenge#i'm back!!!

my thoughts on The Murderbot Show:
idk man
ā
#i pressed play with the same energy you'd get from someone trying to disarm a bomb#it looks fun enough. and the changes are fine. i guess#i think i'm still hung up on the CGI#i dont. like it.#which is nothing new tbh this is why i rarely watch live action stuff#i want to say that i would have liked it if i wasn't so attached to the books already. but idkkkkk#my vision for the scavengers reign style murderbot show seems to hinder my ability to enjoy the show's visuals. rip i guess#the murderbot show#murderbot#mbtv#i think i'll try and write down my proper thoughts once the entire season has released bc#uuuuuugh so far my biggest concern is how they're handling the whole "space hippies PresAux'' thing#like. i wouldn't be surprised if them presenting PresAux in such an unserious manner is so viewers can be surprised once they#get down to proper business or whatever. at least. that's what i'm hoping for#but i also wouldn't be surprised if the adaptation just. dumbed them down a bit. for some reason#same with whatever's going on with Mensah. i feel like i just haven't seen enough of the changes to form a concrete opinion on that#i love how they did Ratthi. he's perfect 10/10 no notes#i enjoy what they're doing with Gurathin (even though i very much preferred 2nd gen immigrant Gurathin whose knowledge of the CorpRim#comes from horror stories passed down by his parents) (that's still my book interpretation of him)#Still torn on Pin-Lee and Arada getting with Ratthi like. yknow what actually i don't care about that one.#i prefer to keep my romances fully in the background + in fanworks but. who gaf#uhhhh what else is there#oh god i fear the day that blond lady comes on screen. i hope to they handle whatever's going on there well#i'll forgive the crime of adding her uncomfortable comments to the show if someone tells her off for all that!!!!!!!#and while i enjoy the visual style of sanctuary moon. i'm still surprised it seems to be some space adventure show?????#i was expecting it to be more of a legal drama or something. with moodier visuals but. whatever i guess that's a small detail#i'll be fine as long as we have the solicitor and her bodyguard#mmm yea i don't have anything else for now. send post#ramblings

Horizons tomorrow.. Gibeon.
#i'm very nervous about the ep itself and the way they'll announce the big news#and yes i'm aware that corocoro already released in japan and that the poster for the new arc is already out there#tbh i don't wanna think about it too much. too overwhelming. i don't trust like that. i need more context and time to let things simmer#i'm also a bit tired re: leak culture and lies which aren't easy to avoid..#anyway. a bit sad that the news is kinda making me too nervous to properly focus on ep 88#liko and gibeon are going to get so much good stuff probably too.#and i really wanna enjoy the most we'll get of gibeon because idk if he'll have such time to shine again after this :(#anyway. anyone wanna talk about how much gibeon loves lucius and rystal.#i think these three invented love. really need them to pull a wanpre on me. pls#hz088#episode notes

I MADE IT TO THE END OF THE ISAT AO3 TAG!!! now i get to go back to the beginning to see everything that was posted/updated after i started my quest a solid handful of months ago. (i donāt actually know how many, i probably shouldāve made note, whoops) (probably more than two but less than eight)
#i probably did miss some fics i may have liked bc i happed to be in a picky mood when i scrolled past it#and i mayy have missed some bits due to messing up refinding my spot after a couple days away#bc of the way that like. which fics are on which page number. is always changing. bc new releases push older fics back?#i did my best but i couldāve accidentally overshot occasionally#BUT#itās fine if i didnāt do perfect. itās fine. thereās nothing i can really do about it and thatās Fine š¤#iām so brave#so excited to get to get back to new stuff though!!#s.isat

btw if you don't hear from me for like a week and a half it's bc I have a break from work that lined up EXACTLY with the release of one of the most significant and lore heavy interlude quests we have ever gotten in the history of Genshin Impact and I will be going feral.
#HEXINZIRKEL????? ALBEDO???? DURIN???????? MONDSTADT UNDER SEIGE BY THE ABYSS???#ALBEDO ON TRIAL FOR UNLAWFUL DISPOSAL OF HUMAN REMAINS?!?!?!#GOLD RHINEDOTTIR ?!?!? VARKA?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!#STUFF THAT THEY SET UP LITERALLY FIVE YEARS AGO AND NOW IT'S COMING FULL CIRCLE#AHHhHHHHHH#DILUC AND KAEYA FIGHTING SIDE BY SIDE WHAT THE FsadafucK?!#i saw the trailer when it was released so it's not like this is NEW to me but the fact that it's HERE and I will have ANSWERS#i won't be streaming it though#since it's an interlude quest it's not limited so we will get there eventually with the stream account#so I'm not worried about rushing to do that#i'm just gonna submerge myself to the ears in lore and emerge from the Soup later#can't waittt#anyway silm fans??? you would like genshin impact i promise you#i know it looks like a silly gacha game but the lore goes so so so deep#it just requires you to read shit and pay attention#which silm fans are very good at! but the vast majority of genshin players are not lmao

going to the cc tag for sims 4 just feels so sad these days... a land forsaken by god
#if it's not paywalled cc it's cc showcases of stuff we've all had in our games since 1976#i've mainly given up on trying to use that tag at all and have just been using uh piracy sites and cc finds to browse new releases#which comparatively to how much focus there was on the tumblr tag for s3 and s2 it feels kind of like adding āredditā to google searches#dl

Iāve seen some posts about people wishing skz would take a break so they could rest properly since their schedule seems insane, and i agree someone should probably send these workaholics to the seaside for their health for a while. However I also wish theyād take a break for entirely selfish reasons, because good god the amount of content they put out is ridiculous. Iām still v new to the fandom and kpop culture in general, but in my brief time here skz has released so much new stuff š„² which I admit has been great so far as Iāve been deep into my hyperfixation, but I can feel myself getting overwhelmed and, not to be dramatic, burning out a bit?
Like I donāt think we as a species were ever meant to consume this much content, there should be time in between releases to process it all properly
#as someone whoās used to waiting for a new album sometimes for years the skz schedule is very bizarre#and theyāre working on an album release while touring#which means new photos and videos from the concerts nearly every day#plus talkers vlogs and variety shows and such#and the brand ambassador stuff and other photoshoots for magazines etc#and probably something else i forgot to mention#not to mention all the 8 ish years worth of content iāve yet to explore#i wonder what itās like to enjoy something casually#hys

Head's UP new followers who came for the herb guides! I manage an AU which is a fix-it redux of WC in order to make it thematically consistent, called Better Bones. I take the messed up things about warriors and address them, dragging the stuff like abuse, xenophobia, ableism, and so on to the spotlight so I can stab it with knives.
I am about to be VERY mean to Crowfeather <3 Make sure you've got your tag filters up if you need CWs for abuse and such, because I wrote an interaction that is a doozy.
#There's a full CW list up in my masterpost#There was a TONN of new followers which happens a lot when I release herb guides!#And thanks btw to all the nice asks I got of newcomers coming in and discovering it all for the first time!#But whenever I get a big influx I try to make a little head's up post like this#Because BB has teeth and she can bite if you're not ready for her#Especially the stuff around my favs like Squilf and Breezy-P

sometimes I do wanna just build an online horror genre taxonomy
#like to me walten files uses unfiction and analog aspects but is neither#like yes you are meant to be watching someones channel who found this footage but its not meant to be overly believed or even really-#utilized that much beyond general description things#and it uses analog but what makes analog horror /ANALOG/ horror is how it focuses on stuff from that time period in terms of-#news broadcasts and error or warning alerts etc#Its like calling TMA analog horror because they use a tape recorder almost#Im not mad btw im more explaining with emphasis.#Also marble hornets is not analog horror its unfiction#which analog horror can be unfiction dont get me wrong but like#not all unfiction is analog horror#mandela cat is analog unfiction for instance#does this make sense#I want to do this so badly#cause you also have video game horror which like#not horror games but horror through the guise of videos playing video games#which can be unfiction and often is.#or ARG which despite the name is not solely for unfiction#TMA again for instance is fiction (ignoring meta implications at times) but has had an ARG for The Magnus Protocol release)#ultimately its pedantic. art is a fluid flowing form that doesn't need boxes or labels to exist#but also I think its fun#I am like robert smirke lmao#voidthoughts

think itās so interesting to see people complain about the bsd update schedule
#many times i see people saying itās not enough content#which is crazy to me like wdym we literally get new stuff every month. thatās a lot to me#but also i keep seeing complaints that the pacing is off#and i totally get that feeling#but i remember reading the mersault arc when it first came out and thinking all that back amd forth was getting a bit repetitive#even if i did have fun with it#but then when it was all released and i got to read/watch it in one go it was literally fine#long story short i think the small updates do sometimes give you the impression that everything just takes forever#idk iām not even going anywhere with this#i like my monthly updates#and i guess i do kinda understand it if people feel the pacing is off because of them#idk š¤·

Not people shitting on kpop demon slayer already for being "slop" as if it isn't a funny as fuck concept
#also like. i saw a comment saying āget back to making spiderverseā brother does not believe in art and the well being of artists holy shit#'quit making something fun and original and get all your animators back to the sequel sweatshop you stupid artists' like hello????#not to mention like. you cant have too many people working on one film. thats not how it works.#also this isnt disney remake slop. this is new. even if it turns out to be shit this is a RISK. they are MAKING RISKS. which is WHAT WE WAN#disney remakes are NOT RISKY. they are low effort and regurgitated and a quick cash grab#i believe in the right for artists to make their cringeass fucking movies that might turn out mediocre as long as its theirs#because it means studios are allowing artists to make their own stuff rather than forcing them to fit a brand#and sometimes its actually a good fucking movie#like the fact its not getting a theatre release is already so sad. sony has no faith in it#notart

I'm trying to figure out how to summarize and translate Taylor's editorial from Port Magazine and oh...boy jeez this is gonna be a lotta work , the writer is really incompetent, the translation from Taylor's English to the written Chinese is choppy, the flow and focus are all over the place and I'm cringing
Still gonna do it though, I genuinely enjoy translating stuff for the fandom, and tbh rather do this than cell biology
#rwrb#red white and royal blue#rwrb movie#taylor zakhar perez#alex claremont diaz#rwrb rambles#this magazine is really incompetent#the physical copy was supposed to be sent out in mid January#but it's still not out#apparently due to printing issues#but everyone paid with the promise of a mid January release#but all business are gonna shut down by next week for Chinese new year#which is like a whole week holiday#also the writing i hate it so much and I've written and read editorials before#ughhhhhh#back to my second hand embarrassment of Taylor experience not so good stuff on my turf
