a fun little detail about animal crossing is that it actually has grass deterioration into the game and i always thought that was a really cool feature so when i was a kid playing new leaf i would always walk where i wanted my desire paths to be
here's a path thats been desired upon greatly

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

this has been a roller coaster of a design journey but finally I can present you: class swap artificer!adaine and rogue!fabian
#dimension 20#fantasy high#fhfy#fhsy#fhjy#fabian seacaster#adaine abernant#fh class quangle#goodbye... goodbye hoodie kid adaine..... we have mecha pilot/power armor adaine instead#I couldnt really land how she'd get a hoodie reliably in freshman year given the abernants pattern of confiscating shit from her#so I kinda switched gear and dug a bit into a like sukeban aesthetics instead. and since shes with the AV club I like the idea of#like a radio coord thing for her. hence the suspenders#I fully admit the sukeban thing is influenced by the hacker woman in ghostwire tokyo who I have a small crush on#she's SO cool. too bad about a number of things with that game#the jacket of useful things is a racer jacket this time bc Im predictable like that#her ensemble in junior year is her tank top + overall it might not be clear enough in the pic...#just had the thought ''man I should do turnarounds for all of them'' and immediately had to slap myself out of it#anyways uh! fabian I have inflicted with my favourite thing to do to characters who like to stealth or fly under the radar#which is Bright Extremely Noticeable Jacket That Hides Your Hands#fabian's ghost motif has led me to the famous horror movie trope of silhouette with iconic jacket from afar#(see Sinister and Alice Sweet Alice)#and I love to imagine him hanging the coat up somewhere and opponents aiming there instead of at him#but also the raincoat is specifically modeled after the yellow fisherman's raincoat#and. that led to. me thinking abt fabian pulling riz up at that cliff with a net instead of the battle sheet lmao#so his junior year design is fully Fishing. which is so fucking funny it has obliterated all other possibilities from my brain#ranger flavour: captain ahab#I still debate making him carry around an actual fishing rod tbh. right now Im giving him a rifle grappling hook thing#gods. I just think High School Classmate Suddenly Gets Way Too Into Fishing is the funniest fucking thing that can happen#thank you fabian. thank you for giving me this. love you buddy#still blanking on kristen but! throughout this whole storm here I've realised I just need to fuck around

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

finally finished all of one character's entire quests/optional dialogue/questions/etc.... 100,000 words... .... aughhh
#Given some of it IS lines of code and stuff but like.. minus all that it's still probably at least 85 - 95k words hhhhhh#AND I have to do this for another 3 characters. Then a few partial quests for 3 others. THEN the other random misc stuff in the game#(like there are public areas in the city like a park and a forest that you can go and do a few things at. and chat with a few random#townsfolk that aren't actually full characters or anything. And there's a community board where you can#browse some of the random job advertisments or silly things that happen to be posted around#and also pick up a few odd jobs of your own to help earn coin to buy gifts for the npcs. etc. etc.)#Originally I was thinking like 'ah I'll make a short little game just to try it out! :3 It'll take maybe a few months!''#haha........................hee hee........................................hoho#Also evil that it would have been done already if I didn't totally drop itand stop working on it for like 5 years randomly#i could have made 5 years of steady slow progress gradually. instead of like 'one initial idea dump + about a month of art and writing'#...... 5 year break..... 'sudden mad dash to try to get probably 400.000 words written in a year or less' lol#I just really want to be done and have something out there already so it can lead to doing other things in my world..!!!!!! T o T#Like this can be an introduction and then maybe from that I can make other games. or short story anthologies. or other such things#But there needs to be some initially not very complex easy to interact with starting point first I guess... if that makes sense#That's part of why I stopped posting worldbuilding lore dump stuff as often because its' like.. massive walls of novella length#text are much more inacessible to engage with than like.. ooh a game! and there's characters! so its more approachable! and theres#visuals! oo! and the text is broken up in small bits line by line with other things in betwen! oo! etc. etc. lol#Not that THIS is even very accessible. I think dialogue heavy interactive fiction/visual novel type stuff is pretty niche and considered#boring or tedious compared to something with more ''gamplay'' like where you can actually move around in a world#and shoot things or whatever lol. But its an inbetween point. something SLIGHTLY#more accesible for now. Since i just dont have the budget or means or ability to make some skyrim type thing obviously LOL#Though maybe if theres any interest in the visual novel that could lead to making other things too. or at least I hope. I have a VERY cool#idea for a more ''gamey'' type of game that is a super fun concept and etc. but I would need to hire at least 2 people to make it.. ough..#I could do all the writing and probably half of the art. But I think I'd inevitably need a 3d artist and someone who can Code For Real hbjh#the system for ren'py (the thing I'm making a visual novel in) is not that complicated if you stick to just simple dialogue and stuff.#Making a whole moderately sized 3d game with minigames in it and a bunch of quest features and etc. would be out of my simplistic scope#''just learn it yourself!!' ... i barely manage to eat and sleep reliably every day lol... i do not function well enough to spend months#learning that many new skills. I already have a lot of of things I'm good at (not in a braggy way but just factually like.. i already have#a wide variety of different things under my belt).. at some point I have to just be happy with what i CAN already do and focus on that#and admit I need to get outside help sometimes ghjbh... NO more new skills/hobbies!!! ... ANYWAY

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 😭😭😭😭

#uhhhhhhhhhhhhh. yea. my skyrim gang. in some kind of romanceable companions idea kfjdfhkjdk everyone clap and cheer#templates made by me haha i spent a normal amount of time on these hehe i swear ohoh xoxo#i hate hate hate hate posting things that aren't cohesive i hate that the first one is black and the rest white but sadly in my opinion in#white it didn't look as cool as in black while the characters sheets didn't look as good in black as in white. basically i'm shaking like a#small dog rn. i liked the concept so much tho...u know..picking a companion..like the screens in those games like da ecc..just me?..#anyways they are all so special to me i'd pick them all. also i've been hinting that all three of them love each other so much. it's true#oc: hiraeth#oc: sibylla#oc: dervera#*ocstuff#skyrim

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. :)

I'm playing bg3 again and trying out the honor mode (which as it turns out, might be a bad idea if you never beat the game in general, much less beat it in tactician mode) and I have been confronted with the fact that I absolutely have dnd race favoritism and it absolutely is contributing to my need for many many bg3 saves because I constantly think "hmmm I want to try playing as a deep gnome to see if I get special dialog with Barcus Wroot, the Iron hands, and the underdark" before picking Drow for the 4th time.
#simon says#to be fair!!!#for my honor mode run I picked half-elf drow heritage because I liked the male face shapes more#and also because picking a Lolth Sworn drow for the 4th time would be a sign of a problem#if you want to know what option number 2 is for character creation is when I think 'i should pick something other than drow' it's halfling#i love halfling characters I love halflings I love the adorably sweet dialog options you get and I love how the game is in a new camera#like it's so fun talking to small characters and having them just look at you normally but having every large character look down at you#it makes every threat 100 times more threatening#someome threatens you and you're a big ol dark urge dragonborn? yeah okay bud. I got acid breath we'll see who wins here#someone threatens you and you're a fucking tiny little wild mage halfling who just spent the last hour telling Lae'zel to be cordial?#yeah I believe that threat. they could absolutely just pick me up and run off with me right now and the most I could do is accidentally fog#if you wanna know default number 3 if I dont wanna be a drow and halfling is just no cutting it?#dragonborn#in actual dnd I have never played them because there's so many other races I default to (like tiefling which is 4 in this list)#but in bg3 they're just SO fun to make and look so cool#it goes in order of special favorite little cultists > special favorite little combat avoiders > the most fun thing to make and play#and finally tiefling. i don't have much of an explanation besides the fact that tieflings are fun and I love their plot relevance in bg3#but yeah dragonborn is absolutely the most fun to create in character creation and very fun to play#but I gotta choose my special little guys with nothing in common#do I pick a dark elf choosing to leave the cult of lolth to be good? a dark elf who is still Lolth's special little baby girl?#a dark elf with nothing to do with the underdark since their parent left who has lived a surface life and doesn't like cultist association#or do I pick a halfling who's here to be as cordial as possible and find the funniest ways to avoid combat#I was considering having a halfling for my honor mode because I thought romancing Halsin would be fun#but I decided a drow because avoiding the goblin combats without using the tadpole is a HUGE plus#and also because I had used the best halfling hairstyle on my other halfling and I didn't want to just make the same guy twice#anyways I still need to do like every other race and class soon so I can get the fun dialog#but here's the tough truth that funnie pony artist number 32 really loves Drow and Halflings so so so much
