Danganronpa billboards I spotted in Akihabara today!!
#danganronpa#You do not know the SOUND I made when I spotted the first one#It's been a small fantasy of mine since I got here to see a DR poster like this in a station#ISNT IT SO COOL???#I know its just for a collab with some mobile game but it makes me so happy#to know that people still like DR enough that this is a worthwhile investment#And that I just get to see it!#(only thing that would've made it better would have been the v3s. But we take our victories)#shut up me#no id

Kingdom Hearts
#kingdom hearts#kh1#darkside#heartless#my gif#i remember fighting this thing for the first time as a little kid#you receive a weapon and only learn very basic combat against small heartless then suddenly this appears#i had never seen an enemy this big before in a video game and thought it would be an impossible fight but it felt so cool to defeat it#my memory is very poor but i'll never forget this experience because everything feels so grand when you're a child haha

Not that I needed a NEW project to work on but... Here's my Underfell take. Let's see where this goes.
#look I'm burnt out on Angel's and I need a small break from FR as I rear up for the side story game. i made the main assets for it and the#story is mostly planned out and ready to be written#i want to do some concept stuff and i only have one life to live and I'm going to do what makes me happy!!!!#underfell#undertale#also i'm being vauge to what kinda game this will be. might be just a visual novel like New Royals! Maybe its a playable game!#we'll find out someday. rn i'm just getting the core concepts down#i actually have been thinking about this for a while but something clicked in my head and now I'm determined to make this thing#so ike. backstory time. i worked on a big project with a friend but that project had history unrelated to me#that it was best for that project to be cancelled and I'm glad it did#BUT i did a lot of cool writing for that AU and I want to use those ideas#so i realized itd be cool as hell to make it a part of my underfell take

I was talking to Lane Hutson about adjusting to playing with a full cage in university and now with the visor. And you were talking the other day about how you played with a cage in university and the eye injury you suffered and then put on a shield. Was it peer pressure that made you not wear a visor when you came into the league or was it you just wanted to play that way?
I couldn't wait. You grow up watching the NHL and guys wearing nothing. And I think it was one of the things that... look cool. [laughs]
Until you get a puck in your eye.
Yes. But I think I came in the league, I was a small player. The league was big boys. For me at the time, I definitely wanted to show guys that I wasn't scared. Not saying that was smart, just at the time, the era I came in, I had to prove to people I could play with the big boys. And probably, having no shield helped me like 'hey, he's got some toughness' I guess. Not that I was fighting or anything. It was just an era.
Honestly there's nothing like feeling the wind in your face on the ice, like hitting you. It's pretty cool, it's like the outdoor rink. Going out and skating with just a toque on. That feeling, of the wind blowing in your face as a hockey player, is an unbelievable feeling. To get to do that in the NHL was pretty cool, but you know, you have to adapt.
The game was just speeding up and the way people were shooting the puck and the stick on puck and the tips and stuff. And obviously I took a puck in the eye that made me reassess the coolness.
Are you surprised when you see guys today still playing (without visors)—there's only a few.
Oh I can't imagine right now playing in the league without a shield, the way the game is being played.
marty — 12.12.24
#martin st louis#media quotes#24-25 season#sorry i find this FASCINATING#like him admitting the jock mindset of i cant wear a visor bc i have to show i can play bc things were so diff for small players back then#and then breaking off to wax poetic about the wind on your face while skating#and then like but no guys its a fast game be smart not cool#anyway references for hrpf scholarship if anyone wants!

me, picking up an amazing game and having the time of my life playing it: oh boy, can't wait to see all the cool fanart and stuff!
me later, having once again picked an amazing game with the tiniest fandom in existence: ah, I see. we make our own food here.
#Unicorn Overlord and Triangle Strategy and Octopath Traveler shaking hands over having tiny fandoms#although to be fair the Octopath fandom's sort of bordering on what I'd consider medium-sized thanks to having two games and a mobile game#FOR CONTEXT SMALL FANDOMS AREN'T BAD I like them more than bigger fandoms#but I also enjoy seeing things other fans make and it's a little sad seeing such cool games with so few fans sometimes#I know I could just Make Art (I should make more art for these games) but also I am so tired lately#many hats off and kudos to all the artists and writers and other fans making stuff for those fandoms though#you're all like cacti providing flowers to the pollinators of the deserts#oracle of lore

NO YOU’RE SO RIGHT ABOUT THE MAJIMA STUFF THOUGH. GOD. God forbid you speak poorly about the fandom silly guy etc etc. I rt’d one post about someone being annoyed abt majima getting an insane amount of merch (especially compared to other characters- even other PLAYABLE characters) and suddenly my TL is filled with ppl taking it as a personal attack….. like?? Settle down???
My one fear is that instead of Mine content we’re just gonna get Majima Saga 2 for yk3 and rgg will call it a day. WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO SAY ABOUT THE GUY !!! GENUINELY!!!
at this rate we’re going to have a complete record of Majima’s life from birth until modern day bc you knowww they’re never gonna let the cash cow die or retire. + god I lowkey need the 3jimas to break up Now so saejima and daigo can stand on their own again (w/out being overshadowed by Majima)…. Saejima especially… I miss the days when he felt like a character………
(I may have a lot to say on the topic) (he’s a fun character but at this rate I’m getting so sick of the fandom around him)
gen is kinda funny how when there's the Monthly Critique Of Majima post on twitter the rggtwt part of the tl is flooded with majima fans being upset. its like clockwork really LOL
as for saejima, i do miss him being solo... like he's funny with majima at times, but as wack as Y4 was i still really liked his coliseum scene, and his prison adventures in Y5 were a real treat too..
#snap chats#like you say one mild comment about majima in passing and then you have mates acting as if you burned their crops#like .. its never this serious .. also i think people have the right to be a littttttle miffed that other charas barely get anything#its starting to change with the plushies and saejima/akiyama figures so thats great but. still a way to go LOL#its just esp Lol inducing because kiryu and ichi are protagonists so it makes sense for them to get stuff#but majima is quite literally a side character that wasnt meant to have this much popularity#the concept of a chara becoming popular by accident isnt bad thats not the thing- its even cool when that happens#its just sometimes you just see people act really entitled to stuff for that character while every other chara is ignored#and then the same people acting surprised when others go 'actually ive had a bit enough of this guy'#honestly if they did another majima segment for a hypothetical yk3 id laugh. like id be a bit annoyed but id mostly laugh#cause truly what else is there. he's like a comic book character we just gotta keep making situations for him til hes 90#idk. just so funny majima's been given a sort of 'weird' protagonist status#and i say weird because he IS a protagonist but just compared to how he actually functions throughout y1-y6. lol. lmao even#like youre right in that majima's a fun character but he really is better in just small doses imo#or. at least i need people to relax on the idea of a 'majima gaiden' or making him any more prominent in the games than he is now#anyway i cant be bitter posting my dad is being funny as hell. he got us bracelets and he was like#'in our family you and i are the only ones who like these. makes us cool' and i was like 'yeah dad we're so cool'#and this old man is just 'we're so cool ☺️' LIKE PL E A S E THE EMOJI TOOK ME OUT. i love my dad. all bitterness is gone from my heart#anyways bye if rgg gives majima a saga in yk3 im gonna livestream playing that and only that#not even yk3 just the majima part 😭😭😭😭

I'm trying so hard not to be a hater but the more I learn about other ttrpgs the more the way that people talk about dnd annoys me
#'it's great because of how versatile it is! You can play it however you want!'#this is true of every tabletop rpg#you are making up a game with your friends of course you can do whatever you want#if you're playing dnd by ignoring over half the rules then the rules are probably over-bloated for the kind of game you're trying to play#the fact that you are having fun is a testament to your group being good sports and roleplayers/having a good gm#it doesn't mean that dnd is particularly well designed for your group#and also dnd (even 5e) is not especially beginner friendly and its shitty corporate overlords want you to pay at least $150 to play it#but it's so entrenched in our culture and rhe community has put so much effort into making it as accessible as possible regardless#that it's so hard to get people to look past it#i promise you that whatever game you want to play whether it's social intrigue or combat or dungeon crawling in whatever genre you want#somebody has made it#and somebody has also made amazing games that you never could've imagined needing but maybe they're just right for you#I'm not saying dnd is poorly designed like there's obviously a lot of good things about the huge scope of 5e and its experience#if you like using all of those systems or having them on hand in case they come up in play that is so awesome#I'm glad you found the game for you#but it isn't the game for everyone! and acting like it is funnels more money and cultural capital into the hand of wotc#when we could be supporting small publishers and indie creators making sick niche shit#y'all heard about bluebeard's bride? you play as bluebeard's new wife wandering through the rooms of his house#just the one bride. the different players play different aspects of her personality and can get into arguments about what to do next#isn't that wild and cool?#okay rant over#a podcast man made me upset through no fault of his own#and i had to get it out of my system#my rambles#negative/#tma#d/nd#ttr/pgs#i have no idea if that tag thing actually works or if tumblr users made it up#i never want to put negative posts in main tags man. I'm not a monster

for the longest time i was a loss as to what to bring to the potluck because i thought i should bring something good and of high quality but then i realized that i was supposed to be having fun and that the whole point of the event is to have fun. so here i am, smiling at you, handing you a doodle of Guys From My AU because, let's face it, if i were to make a full illustration for any of them i'd only be able to participate in Potluck 2027. look at the itty bitty bastards :)
(the lineup is missing the team's AI but he was too darn itty bitty to draw next to the already ittybitty-fied Big Dudes)
#potluck2023#they're just shapes but i love them so very much#come to installation 07 we got uhhh cool bastard with a cool visor d°°mguy with a bigass scarf THE DUUUUDE a really fucked up machine guy#two out of four odsts of the rat squad and an ai named after hal ninethousand#funnily enough despite more than half of this lineup being spartans (or spartan-adjacent... things) if zg were a game it would be very much#odst-like in nature because it's just a small group of dudes trying to find survivors from the lnfinity crash while also trying to survive#themselves#and then of course things keep devolving but they're all bonding with each other#and they all get to meet both new people and people they care about a lot and it's great despite the hardships :)#anyways this au is my proudest creation but materializing these ideas in the physical world is a pain in the ass because it takes the amount#of time i simply Do Not Have. one day though. one day. :)

So ive been obsessed with this minedai fanfic for a few months now and i asked the author i could translate it bc i read it like a million times and i wanted to do something with it and they gave me permission and man i really recommend translating fics bc you start appreciating things more and bc you have to read it very slowly as you translate and you imagine the scenarios way better, its actually very fun
#i actually didnt really care about mine and minedai when i played y3 i was like. Huh. Is This It#so i went into ao3 searching for fanfics because clearly there was something about them i was missing and i found this absolute masterpiece#and i Understood.#and now mine and daigo are the only things in my brain#but also yea if you know more than 1 language i highly recommend translating fics you like that youve read a trillion times it gives it a#whole new perspective and its great#i also learned that while english has so little words its so much easy to convey small and subtle things that its impossible to convey in#spanish which is the language im translating the fic into#im going to post it on ao3 since the author is cool with it but i know no omes going to read it lol theres no spanish sub for any game#except 7 i think#not really yakuza but literally no one i know would care about this shit#not that anyone here would care either lol but this account was made with the intention of posting whatever yakuza related thing is on my#mind idc#rant

i feel like "normal" sports video games have been about the same amount of tedium since they've been making that shit for the second generation consoles, e.g. atari and intellivision and such. like don't get me wrong, i can love a good sports game when it involves mario or punching the shit out of a lanky frenchman, but when that shit strives for realism???? like, real sports are boring as shit as is, now you're expecting me to actively engage with them??? boring. boring as all hell. and every year studios are pumping millions of dollars into making basketball sweat more and more realistic. i feel like if you took all the money that went into sports and sports video games, you could solve homelessness in at least like 3 big countries, but no we've gotta make sure people are made millionaires for playing with balls and writhing in green flavored electrolyte liquid when they play with balls good enough. it's a wretched industry and while i don't think it should be like, illegal or anything, i just wish my fucking taxes didn't go to it. like it's not as bad as the military shit, but i feel like if we took like a tenth of the military budget and like half of the sportsball budget we could have free healthcare and shit, but no! we've gotta spend money on playing balls forever!!! there is no better way to spend my tax money, apparently!!! fuck off
#to be clear i'm laughing while writing this#but i do genuinely believe all this#i will say that i am a fan of martial arts. and i think that's technically sports?#but to me martial arts is like genuinely cool. and indicative of something far more practical than “can you throw a ball real good”#and to be clear not everything has to be practical#i'm a gamer for fuck's sake#you can do things just because they're fun. that's cool & good#but i don't think it reflects well on society that we have homeless people and artificial scarcity while a very small amount of people make#millions of fucking dollars doing something that historically would've just been something you do recreationally. in a society where#everyone's needs are met that'd be fine. but we don't live in that society. and i wouldn't even have a problem with it if it was entirely#funded by fans. but it's not#government goddamn taxes go to this shit. millions a year. taxes that could be spent on infrastructure and improving society and shit.#and instead it gets spent on playing games. it'd be like if the government subsidized streamers or high end competitive gaming. which would#be equally as stupid btw. i'm not saying “we should actually make it so that every kind of recreation is funded by our taxes” so that a few#hundred or so high end gamers can make millions too. i just think that sports players should make their money the normal way and#not with My Fucking Money. it's not like that shit's ad free like PBS or something. i'm sure they make enough money through ads and shit

How to find people that would be able to shore up my game making weaknesses and be willing to make a game with me
#you see the problem is that 1. making a game is just a huge workload to do as one person especially for the ideas I have#and 2. I have barely any progamming skills#and I don't think my artistic skills are at the level necessary for game making#concept art is a hard maybe#but anything else is surely not#but I just have so many ideas#that I think are cool and good ideas (and so others have said)#both for worlds and gameplay#in different quantities#and I think my game designing skills are pretty good#man...#there's probably some software and engines out there that would be good for helping me out in the programming department#and there's definitly also some solutions for the art problem (other than me improving which I am working on)#though I'm not a huge fan of using other peoples assets too much#mostly for characters and monsters and such#but still#the workload is still pretty big#but eh#maybe I should just start making some small things#game making#game design#game dev
