shoutout to the person on yt who told me to draw them kissing

[spaceistheplaceart]

i've literally seen NOBODY talking about this but i think this guy getting beat up could be Benrey... but dam!!! he looks very different!!! so i tried to combine his old look with his potential new look and... this is what I got (creepy man... but cool...)

BONUS coloured version I didn't like much and also a HLVRAI-era benny below

Summarized ID: a drawing of benrey looking forward smirking. he's missing a tooth, has a sparse mustache, his left eye is lighter/white and there is a scar on his left eyebrow. He has a dark shadow over his eyes.

FULL ID UNDER CUT

Image One: On the left are three reference images. The top one is of the man who was being beaten up by Combine in the HL2VRAI trailer. He is laying on the ground, smirking, with a tooth missing, a black eye, and a scar on his eyebrow. He has tan skin and a buzzcut, a wide nose, and possibly heterochromia. Could also be the lighting. The image below that is the stock image of the Barney Half Life One model. The third image is of Benrey from HLVRAI, looking at the viewer head on. He has high cheekbones, smile lines, shadowy eyes and a slim face. Above him in blue text reads: "you're not supposed to be here."

The drawing next to the reference images is of Benrey, but trying to combine the reference images. The drawing was made with a pencil-like brush and is uncoloured. He is looking forward smirking. he's missing a tooth on his left side, has a sparse mustache, his left eye is lighter/white and there is a scar on his left eyebrow. He has a dark shadow over his eyes that extends from his slightly receding hairline. His hair is black. He wears a collared shirt.

The first bonus image is the same image as the first drawing but now coloured. Benrey has tan skin, lit from the right side, and is wearing a blue shirt. The shadows are more purple in tone. The second bonus image is him but looking like he did in HLVRAI: clean shaven, wearing a tie, and his helmet. No scar, no heterochromia, and no missing tooth.

Rey Dau sketch I did for a client not long after the render for it was revealed!

Quotes, dialogue, and text for the new dst hallowed nights 2024 update.

Below a cut. due to the fact, that, like usual, it is very long. There's also spoilers for what's in the update.

Before I put all the quotes and stuff here, a note and a few questions:

From now on, if I miss quotes and notice it (or, for betas, when new items/quotes are added for hotfixes,) I'll reblog the post and put those quotes under a cut. In the past I usually wouldn't update these when I found new quotes or new quotes came out TwT

Usually I separate different characters and sections with 3 blank spaces, but for the future, would something else be better/easier to read/easier to navigate? maybe 3 spaces still but a few symbols like ~~~~~ or ^^^^^ on the second line?

would anyone maybe be interested on a video tutorial sometime in the future on how to open and navigate the character speech files + the string files (which contain npc dialogue and other things)? I considered making one before but didn't because I assumed there were probably already a decent amount of guides out there, but there doesn't seem to actually be that many.

ANYWAYS ONTO THE QUOTES. any notes from me will be in () from here on

Also, while I haven't checked yet, my guess is that once you get the veil playbill you can swap it out with the doll one at the stage.) PLAYBILL_THE_VEIL = "The Pall\nA Stage Play",

(There also seems to be a quote for when trying to carve a pumpkin that is burning.)

(Also, at the bottom, below the character quotes, is the full script for the new play + the quotes of the void masques, which I think they say when possessing a mob, and possibly a player? There's also a scrapbook entry.)

(And lastly, 1 scrapbook entry.)

PUMPKINCARVER = "Can be used to carve specific shapes on Giant Pumpkins.", },

(And that's all I can find for now. btw, if anyone has been able to see how the void masques work in game, could you tell me? I could spawn them, but they never possessed anything so I might've been doing something wrong :/)

Tempted to have a proper look at dragon age lore or at least like the plots of the games so I can appreciate my mutuals fics & art & metas but also I think whatever mess in my head I think of dragon age rn is funnier. Also I hear that way lies madness.
