leaden rampart

slate lava
The wacoms look pretty nice
I’ve got some experience with photoshop/illustrator, do they work well with that?
tardy anchor
tbh i think tabletting helps so much w like...getting ur art out there bc it makes ur stuff look neater
idk i only use firealpaca lol
sullen comet
Amazon has replacement nibs
tardy anchor
yeah!
sullen comet
I have Paint tool sai
tardy anchor
oooo hows that?
leaden rampart
is it sai 1 or 2?
leaden rampart
@slate lava I don't know about illustrator but I've known people who use photoshop just fine with it, but it depends what you want to be using the program for really
slate lava
Ok!
Cool
The only drawing I’ve ever done has been with a pencil and a notebook. Digital looks fun though
tardy anchor
it is!!
leaden rampart
it's especially fun swapping from mostly drawing digitally for a while and going to traditional and trying to use the undo shortcut
I definitely have never done this what are you saying
chilly briar
@tardy anchor that's what I get for not finishing pyre lol
sullen comet
I found that is a best seller for 21:41$
leaden rampart
digital is definitely fun though, both it and traditional have their upsides and downsides
chilly briar
it came out while I was on exchange, so only played like an hour at most, then never played it again because time ;-;
leaden rampart
what is wafflez? sai?
sullen comet
No a tablet
leaden rampart
ohh gotcha
sullen comet
I guess this one will be good for getting into digital art
chilly briar
Is there anywhere you can try them?
Near my place in japan there were some stores that had like 20 or so out at a time you could play with lol
chilly briar
I assume other countries have it too, hell even in my current tiny corner of the world you can find a place to try at least a couple out o-o
sullen comet
I’ll keep my eye out
pastel phoenix
Where are you generally located, waffles?
sullen comet
Nvm this one is used for playing OSU!
twin terrace
Well, his name should be a giveaway
pastel phoenix
I could recommend a few places to check, but you need to be in the country, lol
Not necessarily...
sullen comet
I’m in America
pastel phoenix
Ok!
twin terrace
See? Told you

slate lava
I would’ve guessed Netherlands
pastel phoenix
I've been bitten by that assumption before tho
twin terrace
Hm he got me going here, would’ve guessed Canada
sullen comet
I could’ve been communistwaffles and been in Greenland
slate lava
Greenland isn’t communist

It was a joke Ryan

Oh

He’s just making a silly joke
twin terrace
It’s alright Ryan lol
pastel phoenix
I'd guess that any Apple store, Best Buy, etc would have interactive displays
sullen comet
I found one
The top review is saying it’s great for making clothes for your Roblox avatar
twin terrace
The best one, obviously get that one
twin terrace
Too expensive?
twin terrace
Ahh gotcha
pastel phoenix
Link for the curious?
sullen comet
It’s called the Huion H420 USB Graphics Drawing Tablet Board Kit
Sorry discord is being weird on my computer
pastel phoenix
No worries!
sullen comet
It keeps on saying it’s updating all the time
leaden rampart
at the end of the day, the more important part of drawing in general is your skill, not necessarily your tools
sullen comet
Wait
neon cedar
i used xp pen deco 01, but ive only had it for a month
sullen comet
I think it’s working
neon cedar
it seems good
leaden rampart
like tools do help, but you can make really good looking things with lower quality tools
but high quality tools don't give you good art skills, practice and hard work to keep growing do
neon cedar

chilly briar
You could get one second hand for now and see how it suits you
Since the chances are most are sold because they don't get used
sullen comet
Yea
pastel phoenix
I'm not that big a stickler for the newest, fanciest tools, but 1) delay, and 2) precision can be deal breakers
sullen comet
Brb
pastel phoenix
If you don't want to lock up the money with test purchases, you can always spend the time in the store trying them out
They also tend to have all the best software installed for showcasing
chilly briar
also you'd be pretty unlucky to get a unit with low precision these days
5 years ago it was a cowboys town though
back in my day...
sacred quiver
You can always look up cheap tablet reviews on Youtube a lot of artists have done some on ones under 100 dollafs
pastel phoenix
also streams- good for checking what it's really like in action
twin terrace
You don’t need fancy tools to do art... However if you do use fancy tools to do art, more power to ya
sullen comet
ok I got paint tool sai and Krita now
sullen comet
You would not believe how long it took me to figure out that was sir gilman
sullen comet
Thats his love look
leaden rampart
I THOUGHT IT WAS A HEART COIN OR SOMETHING
leaden rampart
I should've just read the emote aaaaaaaah
sullen comet
I figured it out cuz i saw the smile
lemme try out Krita right quick
I listen to Trombone Shorty's parking lot symphony

Ohhh open source, wonder if I can fix any of their open issues if they have any lol
I'm at the struggle atm of either rebuying supplies to resume painting or water colour, or continuing to practice playing bass o-o
twin terrace
Well, can’t you order the supplies first and then continue practice or

Discord is trying to become the new steam...
twin terrace
Could be interesting
Could make Steam wise up, or they let themselves become a dumping ground for cheap games
chilly briar
Does discord intend to sell games?
If anything, it seems like they're just filling in the gaps with xfire features
sacred quiver
Yeah they made a post about it on their Twitter
sacred quiver
Discord is becoming a one stop shop
chilly briar
If you want, Discord can scan your computer for games. Then, you’ll be able to launch any of your games through Discord even if they require another launcher (Discord will boot the other launcher and game). This way, you don’t have to worry about which game boots from where!```sick
faint panther
This makes me think about that xkcd strip (the launcher part)
https://xkcd.com/927/
Steam made dubious choices, I hope they stop that now that they may have a competitor
velvet void
I feel like the phrase "Discord is aiming it sights on Steam." Is a lil bit click bait. So far it seems that they're just trying to be a launcher although I did read that they might try to sell games as well. Regardless, I heavily doubt they will ever truely be a competitor to steam given that there are a dozen or so other game marketplace platforms are out there that tried but quickly realized that best they can do is fill a niche that steam doesn't already.
brittle jetty
yeh
velvet void
I.e
GOG selling DRM free games
Humble bundle selling bundles of games for discounted prices
Even devs like Epic, Bethesda, EA making their own launchers and cutting out steam as the middle man but that has more to do with them being a big enough brand that they assume people will go through the extra effort to go to their site.

is it just me or is the transistor USB not being sold in the online store anymore?

It's really genius, because simple cosplays are great! I've only gone once, and I went as KiKi. Easiest cosplay ever!! Black dress and red bow. Plus I got RECOGNIZED. on my first con!!
ruby roost
The best moments I had was when a group of girls came to me really happy to take a picture with me :'D and the other one was when a girl was like "You're Rin!!Marry me!" and I actually kneeled in front of her
Then she went "aww you're a girl" :'D
waxen sonnet
hahaha
trail gazelle
d'aw that's funny!
trail gazelle
when I was KiKi a lot of people asks for hugs and pics!! 😮 And one of the speakers at a panel recognized me, and stood up, and then other people saw I was KiKi, and a literal ripple of 'Awww!' went through the huge room (which was full!) I thought it was especially funny when I met other KiKi's!!
trail gazelle
yeah!!
spring flower
must have been a really great experience for your first cosplay 😄
ruby roost

I wish I cosplayed at a con at least once, but I'm usually sitting behind a vendors table

IDK if this might sound too conceited lol, but if anyone wants to see I could share a picture of me as KiKi? Can I do that here?

do it!

Ooh I had a friend work for PAX. I wonder if I could since I’m used to working spotlights and backstage

YES!!!!

nier automata has some representation but its not too central to the plot its just there but pls play it, its good
serene kettle
I’ve almost 100% Nier: A because I love it so much
waxen sonnet
nier is so goooood
hollow canopy
monster prom is super short but its rlly fun and one of the funniest games ive played in a while
its pretty vulgar though so keep that in mind
if youre not into that
serene kettle
If it doesn’t have straight up porn it should be gucci
hollow canopy
nah, it doesnt
hollow canopy
i wasnt a huge fan of dream daddy but that might be because i didnt feel like it lived up to the price
thats rlly just me though
ruby roost
Fire Emblem Fates has some lgbt rep
serene kettle
Honestly I’m pretty easy to please so that might be why I liked it lol
hollow canopy
ehhh its not great
i love fire emblem but if youre looking for lgbt rep id look elsewhere
ruby roost
Yeah true
twin terrace
Fates isn’t a good game, like it felt incomplete to me but don’t take my word for it here
serene kettle
I’m mostly asking because I was feeling down about not being able to be gay in Persona 5
ruby roost
I just played awakening and fates
hollow canopy
the gameplay (especially in conquest) is great but the actual story and character elements leave a lot to be desired imo
ruby roost
True
But I kinda liked the story (only played Conquest too)
Not the best
But not the worse too
waxen sonnet
i'm so ready for fire emblem switch
twin terrace
Conquest, definitely felt like something but Birthright felt like an afterthought
ruby roost
@waxen sonnet the characters look amazing
hollow canopy
please @ fire emblem switch be good im begging
ruby roost
I hope I can buy a switch soon
@hollow canopy wise words. Hope you have been heard :')
hollow canopy
HONESTLY
waxen sonnet
dqxi first though~~
hollow canopy
i liked echoes but it was super simplistic gameplay wise and i never actually finished it
it was my fav aesthetically tho
serene kettle
Thanks for the suggestions y’all I put them in my notes so I can buy them all later
hollow canopy
so im just pRAYING for a great fire emblem game to debut on the switch
twin terrace
Please let it have some faster gameplay is my one request
Echoes felt kinda slow imo
waxen sonnet
I didn't even pick up Echoes, I knew it wasn't what I was looking for at the time. I yelled when we got our FE switch announcement trailer though
serene kettle
Wow I have never played Fire Emblem. I got into gaming pretty late
hollow canopy
yeah thats fair! echoes is a huge deviation from the typical formula
awakening is always gonna be my fav fire emblem probably just because it was my first and im in love with chrom
regardless. pls fe switch be good
ruby roost
My first FE was Awakening and I love it so much!
hollow canopy
its not a perfect game but i love it regardless
waxen sonnet
my first was sacred stones
twin terrace
Imo why can’t we have the over the top animations like FE7, cause that was really the peak for me
sacred quiver
I loved Echoes gameplay wise and story wise but I probably skipped about every enemy turn because it just couldn't go fast enough
Hectorcopter made FE7
twin terrace
It was flashy and not practical but my god was it the best part
sacred quiver
It completely fit Hector's character
hollow canopy
if you want stupid flashy animations look no further than fe fates' Archer Backflip
twin terrace
I love watching battle animations but it made me sad how kinda... Boring the battles look in newer games. They hit the enemy with the impact of a nerf bat
waxen sonnet
I love hector
trail gazelle
I've heard of Fire Emblem only because I'm pretty sure I heard GReg Kasavin himself likes it, I think, but I've never played it though, don't know what it's about..hm...
hollow canopy
thats true
the older games' animation looks so much more... Powerful
probably because of the extra effects like the vibration and stuff
sacred quiver
It's a turn based strategy RPG I think it the term that gets used a lot
hollow canopy
yeah its like chess w hot anime characters
spring flower
my friends are huge Fire Emblem fans
twin terrace
I’m not saying I wanna see heads pop off, I wanna see some crazy effects, give me back all those good animations from the GBA era
spring flower
in the last con we went to, they were all freaking out about it and i was like ':D no idea what's going on but i'm happy for y'all'
hollow canopy
chrom is finally in smash im so proud

So many games to get hyped over

velvet void
Kinda wish they didn't name the new Prey "Prey". Should of called it system shock 3
Lol
faint panther
Doom Eternal is basically Brutal Doom if it was Brutal...er
velvet void
The hypest of Doom
serene kettle
Haha Doom is on sale I’m buying it now
velvet void
It plays more like system shock then the original prey is what I'm saying
twin terrace
Nice, you’re doing yourself a favor by purchasing Doom here
sharp grail
bc it has nothing to do with prey from 2006
velvet void
The devs didn't even like calling it prey either
faint panther
Ngl, the new upgrades have me extremely excited to get it. Too bad no next gen console or good pc, but I can wait for the price to go down while that's happening
One thing I will not be so fond of is if they add Arch Viles as they were in the original

Mick Gordon did a great job
faint panther
Mind if you give a link to it?
twin terrace
More ripping
And more tearing
But in all seriousness, I wanna see them keep going with this new Doom stuff
faint panther
Yeah, they seem to have made it even more complicated
reimagining old Doom enemies is really cool
sharp grail
i dont know much at all about doom but the music in the doom eternal trailer that was in E3 is soooo good
faint panther
Oh, I'd recommend getting into Doom, GZDoom is a good start
there's a lot of mods, but they're called WADs in the community
twin terrace
And basically a lot of things can run Doom
It’s my favorite thing on the internet
Finding out if something is capable of running the original Doom
faint panther
Most impressive I've found is making it run on a calculator
twin terrace
For me it was a digital camera
waxen sonnet
I think someone played it on their smart fridge

Honestly using a Raspberry Pi is kinda cheating cause it’s like, yeah it can easily make something run Doom (or other things)

Speaking of video game music, what are your favorite video game soundtracks (aside from Pyre, Bastion, and Transistor, since I am sure we all know they're great)
Personally I have been rather addicted to Hollow Knight and Dust Force recently
velvet hawk
I quite like the music in Horizon Zero Dawn, but mostly that one track with the violins that plays in Meridian. There's actually very few games whose soundtracks I've sought out outside the game come to think of it, and they're mostly obscure indie games no one played
sacred quiver
I'm a big fan ofthe Splatoon OST's esecially the octo expansionmusic
raven steppe
FEZ!
twin terrace
Octopath, Guilty Gear, and Sonic
I’m easily pleased by any long as it’s upbeat or strong
zenith canopy
The Pillars of Eternity soundtrack is great as well
dense lintel
I haven’t played much of the game, but I love the soundtrack in Va11-Hall A. Ori and the Blind Forest also has an amazing soundtrack.
zenith canopy
And the witcher 3 soundtrack
twin terrace
Unravel’s soundtrack honestly is pretty good imo
limber horizon
2018 is the year for unironically liking songs like Candy Candy, PONPONPON, Drop Pop Candy, Caramelldansen, etc. love urself listen to overly cute, happy, joyful pink music

Deadbolt ost is amazing
https://youtu.be/VjqimqlaeZQ
That and hyper light drifter and the aquatic adventure of the last human on earth ost but I wouldn't appreciate those if I'm not playing the game (too atmospheric)

Aquaria is an old indie game that not many people know about, but I love it a lot and especially its music, it is magical 💖
velvet fjord
Aquaria was in the Humble Indie Bundle that also had Bastion and some other classic indie games many years ago, wasn't it?
velvet hawk
it wasn't in the same bundle as Bastion but it was in a bundle from around the same time

YEAH!! I got into both Aquaria and Bastion thanks to Humble Bundle!!
Btw Aquaria's OST is by Alec Holowka
velvet void
Late to this but Lisa has an awesome soundtrack. So does the Nier games. Emil sacrifice and Kaine Salivation are some of my favorites.
unreal bridge
Some other fav game OSTs of mine: Xenoblade Chronicles X (by Sawano Hiroyuki), World of Warcraft (fav expansion OSTs are MoP and WoD), Minecraft (by C418), and others that I don't remember now
velvet void
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2-7Jh6FsL4 this one being the newer one from Automata
Also undertale. Every song in that game is amazing
Can't really think of nay other OSTs that havent already been said but if we're talking about music I know some anime OSTs that are excellent
Ping Pong the Animation while also being one of the most emotional and well written shows ive watched, has a very unique soundtrack to it that i deeply enjoyed
Overlord is another one that has killer intro and outros by Myth & Roid
velvet void
Glad to see someone else that watched Ping Pong
stoic turtle
i've only watched half of it so far
sly aspen
Thanks for the suggestions all! Will check them out 😃 A friend streams art on Twitch and sticks to video game OSTs since those don't get flagged for copyright and mute the vods.
He's been running out of new things to listen to

ping pong is top tier

prime cosmos

oh ykno whats a GREAT ost....the world ends with you
prime cosmos
i can't wait for the switch port

same!! mostly because I owned it on my ds but it hurt my hands to play it so I never finished it

That sucks. I avoided PlayStation for a long time because using the controller hurt my hand so much.
velvet fjord
Crypt of The NecroDancer and Darkest Dungeon OSTs are also pretty good
tardy anchor
oooh necrodancer yeah!!
night in the woods has a beautiful ost but its very....intense
i feel like i cant listen to more than one song at a time
slate lava
Oxenfree had a pretty great OST
wanton brook
nier... automata... has fantastic ost...
leaden rampart
assassin's creed II ost, and a neat one I've come across is the ost for the flame in the flood
it's um... definitely got a specific vibe to it but it suits the game and is pretty cute
sharp grail
oh were talking about osts 👀
remember me and vampyr have great osts, i love olivier deriviere
lapis patio
Paper's Please has a pretty great soundtrack, but it's pretty much just one song
also most Zelda games
outer pilot
Risk of Rain OST is also pretty amazing
grand bramble
Danganronpa has some good songs across all 4 game osts
dull granite
There's this game called transistor that has a rlly good ost idk if anyone here will have heard of it
(the portal 2 ost is also good)
And DEADBOLT
Deadbolt's ost is absolutely fantastic
The reaper's lietmoif is so simple but so effective, and there are so many cool ways that it's used
Also one song samples the "They're eating her!" scene from Troll 2
hollow canopy
love it or hate it the fire emblem fates soundtrack is Incredible
upbeat scroll
I gotta agree about portal 2
Technical difficulties really sets the mood
Your precious moon is great too
north hamlet
My personal favourite from portal 2 is the friendly faith plate
unreal bridge
YEAH! Portal 2 OST is amazing!!!

Buy deadbolt ppl.
I like how they just tweaked one mechanic to make the game challenging, also (cf transistor convo) dogs are a pain to deal with.

ANIME! Would love to talk about this but I gotta go to bed, ahhh 😢
Portal!!! AHH YES!
I didn't think i'd like the OST for 'the friendly faith plate' but it really grew on me! Off the top of my head, I love 'Reconstructing More Science', 'An Accent Beyond', the 'Wake Up Call', 'Bombs for Throwing at You', and 'I'm not a Moron! '
Portal rocks!
desert swallow
Wait were we talking about OSTs? Because Hyper Light Drifer and NieR Automata have good ones
And the original NieR as well
desert swallow
Yessss those are good. I also like The Gauntlet and The Abyss
unreal bridge
I'm just now listening to the Deadbolt OST, aaaaa it's amazing
velvet void
Can't forget Hotline Miami
Paris gets me in the mood to preform U L T R A V I O L E N C E
faint panther
Inner animal and hydrogen are good at that too
velvet void
And Mi Cara Addio, the song the turrets sing at the end of portal 2, is one of my favs
And yeah all if Hotlines Songs are bangers
faint panther
If you like stupid violence with house/electronic music saints row 3 and 4 are good at that
Dunno why so many people hate these games so much though, if anyone wants to discuss why they don't like em, I'd like to understand
velvet void
I've played them both but I wasnt fond of them all that much. I don't think they're terrible games or hated them.
faint panther
It's overtop so it doesn't click with everybody I get that but why hate tho
Did you play the 1st and 2 ?
(I know you don't hate just wonderin)
velvet void
No,but the reason I didn't really click with saints row 3-4 is more to the fact that the open world was kinda weak for me. Most of the enjoyment I got from then was from the mission set pieces and whenever I had the chance I would just rush the story until I got to the next set piece. The sandbox didn't really pull me in like other games
I felt the novelty of hitting people with a giant [REDACTED] bat wore thin after an hour
faint panther
That's why I hit them with a regular bat, old school fun's better. But yeah that's right, beyond messing with civilians and police the open world in both of those game isn't interactive at all.
patent spoke
Actually if youre looking for OSTs i feel its more of what youre looking for. The western side tends to focus more on electronic as a base while oriental tends to be symphonic. This is not applicable to all of course but its what ive observed
If youre into symphonic i highly recommend the nier automata sets or kingdom hearts series
Of course a classic would be final fantasy but those are pretty old
For the more western style id recommend the older series. Chrono trigger, halo and the likes
Then theres the indies
Hollow knight, finding paradise, to the moon and rakuen have a few good songs
Of course bastion and transistor would be imcluded in the list

Still great
Started it appreciate when I have the game paused and I have 4 hull breaches, half the ship on fire, and low on oxygen

Especially the ending song

So did anyone else check out We Happy Few? I was so on board with the world, the atmosphere, the story, aaaand then I watched some gameplay, half expecting some wonky first person combat, but I kept seeing encounters where the objective is to run and escape by pushing your way through some dumb ai and locking a door behind you. Anyone have any thoughts on it?

i remember when it was announced i was excited for it? but im not that sure about it anymore
tbf its been years

From what I'm seeing from Jim Sterling, the game seems janked real bad
twin terrace
Honestly I remember giving it something of a whirl
It was... Alright until it became yet another survivalcraft game
It has an interesting concept but I dunno, I’m burnt out on crafting/survival games
lavish anchor
I think the theme drew people's interest and then the gameplay let it down
A bit like the game that broke the internet a few years back... No Man's Skhurgble
twin terrace
At least now they patched NMS and it actually feels like a game
They did wonders on it, and I actually feel bad cause Sony wanted them to push the game out faster and such
lavish anchor
Publishers ain't needed much these days for smaller games
twin terrace
Hm true
lavish anchor
It's why I'm glad Supergiant went full independent for Transistor and Pyre
twin terrace
Oh absolutely
But really, We Happy Few would’ve been much more interesting as a single player action game rather than survival
I dunno that’s just me

I agree

At this point any survival game really has to wow me to get me interested.

Honestly Metal Gear Survive came out at a bad time. Considering the treatment of Kojima and their rep, that game was doomed to fail

In one session I met these 2 guys who were absolute Bros and we started chatting near a lake after we set up a campfire

twin terrace
Haha old funny Dragonball meme bro
velvet void
He wanted my M4 which was the best/rarest spawn in the game and he wanted (at gunpoint) to trade me his AUG for it. I complied but one of the Bros tried pulling a gun on him and he got lit up. Afterwards I just gave him it and he took off and we were just looking at the corspe of this dude who only 10 mins ago we were laughing and telling stories with.
We tried tracking him down but we lost each other in the woods at night. I then stumbled into a bandit camp where things got even worse.
They robbed me of everything but left me with a bat, a can of food (server rule say you have to give the robbed food and means to protect themselves) and a empty mosin.
Afterwards I stumbled around feeling like crap but I found an empty barnhouse with 20 rounds of mosin ammo. I decided I had nothing to lose.
Legit camped outside their camp for an hour just looking for the guy who was talking smack to me and who stole my aug
Until this random guy I've never heard before crawled up next to me asking me if I was planning on killing them. We came up with a plan to hit them on both fronts. He crawled to the other side but got caught by some if the bandits
They started to interrogate him and at this point I saw the dude who had my aug, I lined up a shot and got him and everyone just ran.
twin terrace
Kinda small for such a big number
grand bramble
idk why tho

Dang, I’m invested in Furi’s story here

I just laid there and emptied the clip.
4 more shot and I could only confirmed 1 more kill.
But I just stood still hoping no one saw my muzzle flash during the commotion
15 mins later the camp went empty as all the banits just ran and my guy came back to me.
"Bro that was a nice [REDACTED] shot! He just dropped!"
I'm just there still full of adrenaline and went over to the body and took back my aug.
The guy looted the rest and we split ways.
I still never found the original guy who killed my bro and stole my M4

Celian, the PC, is supposed to be a highly trained assassin. He is but at the same time has crippling social anxiety due to him have no contact with anyone but his master and is a bit of a bumbling dork when it doesn't involve his profession
I had the most fun RPing as him
Most or less made him when I heard how the writer for Cowboy Bebop tried to make Spike a cool character by making him look lame most of the time and where things got serious he would show off his abilities and look cool
So I followed that structure
twin terrace
Kinda reminds me of another character I’m fleshing out here
grand bramble
the story ive been planning is about
a modern world with magic
that contains artifacts that fuse with girls' souls
turning them into magical girls themed around their biggest interest
a yet unnamed evil organization has been collecting these artifacts and using them on stereotypical popular girls in order to use them
main character is named Apple, shes v into knights and chivilry and other medieval stuff
so after she accidently is fused with one of these artifacts when the evil people raid a musuem to get it
she basically becomes a fusion between a knight and magical girl
her outfit is all armor plated and stuff, and her main weapon is a giant magical lance
faint panther
that sounds cool
velvet void
I really want to continue this convo cuz I'm interested in all of your stories and ideas but I got to do some things so I'll talk to you guys later.
twin terrace
Later Furi
faint panther
i would love to draw one of your characters one day
lavish anchor
Later
faint panther
but every time i take requests i never finish them :p
faint panther
i don't do commissions
lavish anchor
Fair enough
lavish anchor
Yep, understandable
twin terrace
I getcha
faint panther
if you're interested dm me but whatever
grand bramble
other characters include Delta, a shy and timid girl who resents the more popular girls, and when given one of the artifacts by the evil people, and basically becomes an very egotistical and loud mouthed Aqautic magical girl whos main weapon is a trident and serves as an antihero
she seemingly becomes a completely different person when she transforms, but is still very shy and timid normally
theres also an as of yet unnamed older magical girl who works as a secretary, and whose powers allow her to provide support from a distance, similarly to the navigation characters in Persona games
twin terrace
Guess I should give a quick summary of what Skate’s like so
faint panther
are you planning to make a webcomic out of this story?
or a book or something?
id read it, sounds cute
grand bramble
tbh id probably do a webcomic if i actually learn to art
tbh its really meant to be darker if anything
like
faint panther
i think you can pull it off if the story is interesting
even if the art isnt professional
grand bramble
for the first large section of the story, Apple is meant to be basically the only good magical girl in her town
shes very much outnumbered and is alone to figure things out on her own
later on her best friend (owned by my bf, a guy who uses the magic he was born with to make himself more and more femine over time, to avoid being bullied) is captured and used as an expiriment by the bad guys in attempt to speed up the process of creating magical girls and basically becomes her sidekick
and Delta kinda works with her too
also on the first bit
basically the artifacts dont fuse directly with a person first
they fuse with them physically, then over a period of time fuse with their soul
during that first bit of time, they're basically any other run of the mill stereotypical magical girl, and its only after it fuses with their soul do they actually get a unique magical girl appearance and abilities
twin terrace
Skate B. Oard, was made cause a clone by the name of Striker Z, escaped a facility and Skate well, he was basically deemed a ‘failure’ but someone snuck the clone baby out and left him in an alleyway. Then comes in the adoptive father, an owner of a bike and repair shop, Pops ‘Poppa’ Wheelie. Takes in the weird kid cause who else would?
Raises the kid and notices how strange his son he dubbed Skate is, and realizes he basically has a superhuman on his hands and does his best as a single dad who owns a small business in LA would. Skate then kinda becomes a celebrity due to being a ‘superhero’ to all. A fast, up in your face, skateboard riding, loud hero.
Then, Skate meets his biological dad, Striker Z who threatens to destroy the city and Skate loses hard against him, and kinda forces him into a retirement where he swears to never use his powers again. Few years later, Striker Z attacks the city and Skate comes outta retirement (Also cause if he didn’t, Pops was going to make him work overtime) and fight to protect his city.
That’s my whole plot for my story
faint panther
so ive googled david cage and he does seem problematic lol
grand bramble
since the bad guys didnt realize that Apple's friend wasnt a girl, the expiriment lead to them discovering something else
fusing an artifact directly with someone's soul without it fusing physically beforehand means that the artifact doesnt get the chance to go "hey this person isnt a girl, im not gonna fuse with them"
lavish anchor
Someone pointed out that David Cage uses the same 3 character archetypes, if not just the same characters overall
twin terrace
Everytime someone brings up Cage and his hack writing, I feel my lifespan decrease
lavish anchor
It's a good lesson on what not to do
grand bramble
this leads to them creating who is basically the main antagonist for the story
basically a male magical girl with a future theme, whose design is kinda based on Akechi's phantom thief outfit, minus the mask, with science fictiony weapons
basically a refined royal look
faint panther
he doesnt seem to be very popular
twin terrace
Also to not be a complete dingdong during interviews when someone asks “Why did you include this theme within your story?”
“Would you ask a movie director that?”
Yes, yes I would.
faint panther
sounds like a very interesting story @grand bramble
grand bramble
but to him, the magical girl powers he's given is nothing more than a physical power boost
Basically instead of using actual magic and stuff, he uses it as a straight boost to his physical strength and resistances, making him insanely hard to take down
faint panther
it's pretty neat
grand bramble
aaaaaaaaaaa thank you
faint panther
you should really consider making a comic
grand bramble
yeah ive been kinda planning it
i need to learn to art at all first though
twin terrace
Yeah your story is really neato
grand bramble
i dont really have any resources to actually do anything though
like i havve mspaint like literally everyone else and photoshop
faint panther
pencil and paper my friend

once you kinda have a base on traditional art you can move onto digital
do lots of figure drawing and still life
copy stuff
grand bramble
i'll get around to starting eventually
but like right now
i just dont have the time or attention span for it
twin terrace
Yours feels well thought out while mine kinda feels like a WIP still

i also have other character ideas for it that arent magical girls, and have though up of a basic magic categorization system for it
but i havent done much with either yet
i think ive been thinking up stuff for it for a few months now

ok then ill guess ill wait until detroit become human becomes a free ps plus game :^)
i thought the game was pretty neat but Cage does not seem pretty neat

@faint panther connor and hank's arc is actually good, mostly because their actors basically did the opposite of ehat cage asked. they improv'd a lot and fought him on inclusions for their characters

Also apologies if I do come off as harsh over Cage, but dang am I actually fed up with hearing about him and people don’t look more critical. Yes, do like what you want and don’t let opinions waver you but hoo boy, I had not good impressions about this dude and his games control like a broken tank

Better writer and honest when asked why the androids are all attractive

Okay, so basically humanity is pushed off the earth by aliens and then robots took over the planet and now a group called YorHa sends androids down to clear out the robots
It’s basically an apocalypse story but really well written and goes a little further than ‘What if a robot wanted to be a human’
faint panther
i like the idea, what about the gameplay?
twin terrace
Action. Very action based
There is some RPG elements but imo it felt more action based
Change weapons, chips (which are like stat modifications) and such
Oh and also there’s exploration and fishing

Also it’s easy to fish, unlike OG Nier
