Kirby And The Forgotten City Makes Me Happy
General | Posted 4 years agoKirby was one of the first games I played as a child. I have fond memories of my mom and I playing the Kirby Eight Games In One on the SNES and have a blast playing the treasure hunter mode. Well while Kirby has been around since then, I just never found any but the occassional one that I liked. Kirby And The Forgotten City actually happens to be one of them and I love this cute post apocalypse, true 3D gameplay style Kirby.
I am so getting that game.
I am so getting that game.
I am astounded there no real gay male protagonists in gam...
General | Posted 4 years agoAm I missing something or are there really virtually no male gay main characters in gaming? How the fuck have we not had a big title with a gay guy as the protagonist yet? It's 2021 and we are still doing the whole "Well lesbians are gay so that works."
Nah man. That is way more socially acceptable. Push boundaries. Make a badass main character that just happens to be gay. I'm not saying focus on the fact they're homo but fucking hell man.

Stupid Criticisms in Story Telling
General | Posted 4 years agoOkay so like I am gonna rant a second. About how pointless criticism is sometimes about specific shit in movies and games and the like.
Particularly I am focusing on criticisms of character actions in a story. Like okay whoo boy here we go.
So say a character in a movie does something that is not logically sound and perhaps makes a mistake in something that winds up setting up the events of a future scene in a movie. You will get "critics" that are like "Well that was stupid. Why would a character do this? That is absolutely stupid. They should have done this because this would have been more logical."
BECAUSE THERE WOULDN'T BE A STORY THEN, DUDE. FUCK. NAME ME A SINGLE REAL HUMAN THAT THINKS 100% LOGICALLY ANYWAY.
Or they will discredit certain actions a character will do and even so far as to say that what the character is doing goes against their nature.
Take Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars Episodes 1-3. You will have people say he is this emo kid and wants to be accepted by the Jedi but then goes immediately Sith Lord and kills young children in the Jedi temple. They feel this goes against his nature and that Anakin is just badly written.
YOU KNOW. BECAUSE THERE IS NOT CONTEXT TO WORK WITH AS TO WHY HE WOULD DO THAT RIGHT? IT'S NOT LIKE THE SECOND MOVIE SHOWS HIM GO ON A RAMPAGE AGAINST A BUNCH OF TUSKEN RAIDERS BECAUSE THEY KILLED HIS MOM AND HE TELLS PADME THAT HE DIDN'T JUST STOP AT KILLING THE MEN, BUT ALSO THE WOMEN AND THE CHILDREN.
I've seen people say he is badly written because he is so emo but its like lets just count the shit he deals with.
1. As a child he is told by a Jedi Master that he is the Chosen one that will bring balance to the Force. But despite this fact, the Jedi Council do not wish to train him because he is "too old" despite his overwhelmingly amazing potential with the Force.
2. He sees at a young age how currupt the government in the Republic is and wants to change it.
3. He is constantly lectured and taken for granted by his own master.
4. He has visions of his mother dying, tries to change it, his mother dies anyway and he goes on a murderous rampage on the people who killed her. He is also mentally scarred by his own actions.
5. Despite his amazing abilities and dedication to the Jedi, he is still never trusted and never granted the rank of Jedi master, DESPITE THE FACT THAT AT THIS POINT HE HAS KILLED A SITH LORD, something none of these other masters have really done.
6. He has visions of Padme dying and does not want a repeat of last time, especially since she is his wife.
7. Gets fed possibly false information about how the Sith can revive people and prevent death altogether.
8. In his desperation to save Padme, he takes a chance with Darth Sidious/Palpatine winds up serving him so he can save Padme and probably overthrow Palpatine later.
9. He is convinced the Jedi are no longer who they used to be and need to be stopped.
I don't know about you but these all sound like great reasons why he would turn to the dark side. Anakin is the story of a tragic hero falling to darkness because he wants to obtain the power to save his wife. He fails in that goal.
But he gets shit for being flawed. That is the whole fucking point dude.
And don't think I am just talking about Anakin, I could go on for days about other characters that get shit for doing something dumb in stories. Again man, having characters always doing everything logically would mean either a boring ass story or no story at all.

Seeing Doom Slayer's Face Made Me Ready for Religion
General | Posted 4 years agoI can worship that guy.
I was going to anyway, face or no face. But frankly, the guy looks like an extremely pissed off Zodd. He is the epitome of angry boy. But that is fine. His anger is on something that detriments me if left unattended to. So I welcome the Doom Slayer as our lord and savior.

Space Combat Probably Won't Look Like What You Think
General | Posted 4 years agoIt's true. It most likely will not look like what the average person thinks it will look like. It won't look like Star Wars or Star Trek. As a matter of fact, I would say its much more likely to be akin to submarinal warfare. So if you want to see tactics that might be used in spaceships, submarines and how they are used during combat might be a far more valuable thing to learn as opposed to, say, aircraft. Why is this? Simple.
Please note that we have never had any space combat, so this is still all theoretical.
There is no atmosphere in space. There is no fricition. With no friction, there is no real way to slow momentum. This means that spaceships will have to move methodically and slowly in order to do anything. And they probably will not look like X-Wings or Tie Fighters and the sort. I actually imagine that the most agile and nimble ships will have thrusters on all sides of the ship to make up for the lack of friction. Want to make a turn? You are going to need thrusters on the sides because the flaps on wings will be useless as there is no air to use to change directions.
While its certainly possible that there could be potential "dog fights" in space, most of the combat will be from considerable distances from each other. Seldom will ships get close to one another. And I am talking distances of tens of thousands of miles away. Possibly so long that missiles and torpedos will be shot and take days to reach their target. These missiles will absolutely need guidance systems as well because their target has likely moved from the original position they were at long ago, so course correction will be a must.
The only time I can see ships closing in is if one side has already won the fight and is preparing to board the other side's capital vessel or something. Which leads me to the more interesting part of this discussion.
MELEE WEAPONS WILL PROBABLY BE A THING USED IN SPACE COMBAT.
And I do mean things like staffs, batons, knives, swords, sabers, spears and things of that nature. Why? It is much harder to puncture the hull of a ship with a sword than it would be to puncture it with a bullet. The last thing you are going to want is a hole that leads directly to the vacuum of space. To say this would compromise parts of the ship is an understatement. Good luck dealing with that disaster. Jury is still out on whether ships will have some sort of magnetic shielding but logically, spaceships will probably have several redundancy countermeasures against this specific thing but if you can avoid destroying parts of the ship by not poking holes in it, that is going to be the best course of action.
Well what if the ship is capable of handling gunfire? Well, would you honestly want to take the chance that this just happens to be the one part of the ship that actually can't? Even if we can assume the ship can in fact do that, close quarters combat (which the inside of a ship will be), is going to favor having at least some sort of melee option like a small sword or a knife on you in case you run out of ammo or otherwise have your guns compromised.
It is also not just the hull of the ship that needs to be taken into consideration. Several internal systems that could be damaged due to gun fire such as waterworks, cooling systems, nuclear reactors and the like might be things that can be damaged due to misfire and that can lead to some serious rammifications. Frankly, a spaceship is an extremely dangerous thing to be in due to the sheer number of things that can turn it into an inhospitable place.
So yes, melee weapons will likely see a revival in this futuristic warfare setting simply for that fact alone. You may see infantry carrying around an M-16 and a cutlass depending on where they are and what their objective is. Of course, violence likely will not be necessary for most instances. At this point, the crew of the ship are probably going to give up and not risk damage to the ship and potential death due to space or melee.
This is all ignoring one enormous issue too. Heat.
Unless they have very efficient means of dispersing heat out, spaceships can only cool down through radiation, which is an extremely inefficient way to dissipate it. To put into perspective, when the sun dies and turns into a white dwarf, it will not be producing heat and will radiate away its remaining heat and eventually turn into a black dwarf.
You want to know how long that will take? Tens of billions of years. If the universe is as old as we think it is, there are no actual black dwarfs yet because not enough time has passed for one to be a thing.
Spaceships face the same problem. So most combat situations will resolve themselves via surrender because the crew don't want to deal with being literally baked alive inside the ship they call home.
Space combat is going to be ugly and the most cruel type of combat we have ever seen before. It will NOT look like what most sci fi depicts it as.

Weakness, Vices, Loneliness, Listlessness
General | Posted 4 years agoIf I could make one statement about anything in my experience here in Oregon, it is that I feel much of it has been a waste of time. And I just never got around to making pretty much anything I wanted to make until recently, months before I have decided to leave. Not decided. I have to leave.
I was weak in conviction to see this story prosper. I may still be weak in this regard.
After breaking up with my gf, as an escape I began playing video games more and more, brushing off my other responsibilities.
I forgot where the direction I wanted to go was and in the end, while I may have ended up somewhere better for direction in This Primal World, I was listless and aimless for so long, I feel no sense of accomplishment. I started a whole new artstyle and ultimately gave up on it. Much of this was for nothing.
Nowadays, I feel isolated from my real life friends and I have this yearning to be with them. I have become rather lonely. But they are doing their own thing, are in other states, or have moved on with their own life.
Despite all this, I am trying hard to find the conviction to draw, it comes and goes. I want to break free of this cycle of procrastination. For now, I guess this is all I can do. All I can say is that the new chapter will be out soon. And to those who have commissioned me, your artwork will be done by the end of the week.
Anyway guys, ciao.

We are getting much closer to a release of Chapter 13
General | Posted 4 years agoChapter 13 is gonna be a long time coming but I do think that the majority of you... hopefully all of you... enjoy it a lot. There are a LOT of new things that will be shown off to kickstart Volume 2 of this webcomic series.
I think you guys are going to love the unexpected stuff that happens in it and I do believe everyone is going to love Buravera because frankly.... I have been keeping him secret for the most part but I think you guys are going to love this dude a lot.
I am actually kinda pissed he will not be joining the main cast but to hell with it. He is important in his own way.
Anyway guys, we are getting a LOT closer. Probably closer than you think.
Ciao, guys!

A script for a scene in The Prince of the Badlands.
General | Posted 4 years agoNecromancer scene:
After having been hit without warning or awareness, Raiser is knocked out by the necromancers and Lex Uno and Orni are captured. There are five necromancers and about fifty henchmen with them, with wagons.
Morughan (with sigh of frustration): Finally, the blood of the triplet Troodens... we finally have the second to last thing needed to bring him back. Now we just need her.
Lex: Raiser?! Damn you people! Let us go!
Uno: How dare you hurt our friend!
Orni: Raiser!
Morughan: Silence! Or I will have your tongues ripped out!
Sashilvera stares at the trees. Lex Uno and Orni continue to struggle.
Sashilvera: I can't help but feel like we are already being watched.
Morshallokja (excited): AH! The Badlands! How I have missed thee! This is true nature! Violence at its peak!
Engy (unimpressed): It certainly is unique. Being that it is the only ecosystem in this world where there are no herbivores.
Morshallokja: Many of the very plants themselves have forsaken their sun for BLOOD!
Xiheva (giggling): Sounds like my kind of flora.
Sashilvera (calm): Let's stay focused. As giddy as the two of you are about this place, it will not show mercy to any of us.
Xiheva: Speaking of mercy. What are we going to do with this one?
Xiheva points at Raiser, still knocked out.
Morughan: I don't care what happens to the peasant. His blood would taint the ritual, if anything. Kill him.
Xiheva laughs as she attempts to kill Raiser with her kusarigama. She is interrupted by Morshallokja's axe.
Morshallokja: I KNOCKED HIM OUT! I SHALL DECIDE WHAT HAPPENS TO HIM!
Morughan looks at Sashilvera, Sashilvera shrugs.
Morughan (sighing): Very well. What do you wish to do to him, Morshallokja?
Morshallokja: Why Morughan! We are in the Badlands. Nature at its very core! If we do not intend to use his remains for anything, then we should allow another to do so instead!
Morshallokja picks up Raiser's body and chucks him into the river nearby.
Morshallokja: This is as nature intended! If he lives, he lives! If he dies... hahaha... he dies...
Sashilvera: I find it rather impressive just how merciful you can be, Mor... considering your past. I half expected you to eat the man.
Morshallokja: Hahaha! I would have eaten him too, Sashilvera! But I had a hearty breakfast and he would have been too lean. Let another devour him in the river, should that be his fate.
Engy notices Raiser's greatsword.
Engy: Is that his weapon? That is quite the blade, there!
Sashilvera and Morughan stare at the sword.
Morughan: I find it odd that a peasant had a weapon like this. What do you think Sashilvera?
Sashilvera stares at the sword for a moment longer...
Sashilvera: It's not very extravagent but... I question how this was in the possession of a peasant.
Engy: Well its mine now! I claim it! I was the first to notice it!
As Engy attempts to grab it, the sword flies away, heading in the direction of Raiser. In an instant, it is out of their sight. Morughan's eyes widen as he realizes the sword is enchanted. There is silence for a moment until Sashilvera breaks it.
Sashilvera: Enchanted... maybe we should have killed that man....
Morughan: Agreed... Morshallokja!
Morshallokja: Oh come off it, Morughan! Chances are likely something is eating him as we speak! This is the Badlands! There is nothing here that would refrain from eating an unconcious man!
Xiheva: You guys are acting like the sword is super interesting. I mean, come on... it was just a recall enchantment. Probably the most common enchantment out there.
Sashilvera: True... but.. what is a peasant doing with an enchanted weapon in the first place? Even the cheapest enchantments cost as much as a tiny house.
Morughan: Usually middle class and upper class have them. People worth noting... families worth remembering the names of. Not... wildmen in the forest.
Sashilvera turns to Lex, Uno, and Orni.
Sashilvera (sturn but calm voice): Who... was that man?
Lex (angry) : None. Of. Your. Business.
Sashilvera, realizing the futility of asking for more info, turns to Morughan.
Sashilvera: We should find him and kill-
Morughan cuts him off.
Morughan (annoyed): No. As Morshallokja has said, this is the Badlands. Chances are very high that he will die while unconcious.
Morshallokja: Even now, as we speak, he may have already been eaten and killed!
Morughan eyes Morshallokja: For your sake, Mor... I should hope so... we move to find Anwokala now. Let's go.
Engy (upset): I really wanted that sword.
Xiheva (comforting): To be honest, Engy dear, your scythe looks better.
Xiheva pats him on the back.
Engy: Thanks, Xiheva.
They walk off as Sashilvera and Morughan look back at the spot they ambushed Raiser.
Sashilvera: Perhaps I'm overthinking things... but I'm hoping that won't come back to bite us in the ass.
Morughan: If by some miracle, that man is still alive and proves to be a problem, I'll send Mor to take him out and bring his head back to me. If Mor comes back empty handed...
Morughan grabs a rock and blows it up in his hands.
Morughan: Then he will no longer be among us alive.

Updates for TPW and Prince of the Badlands
General | Posted 4 years agoThis Primal World is still slowly coming along. I just have been prioritizing some commissions that needed to be done before I continue full blast on it. Also work has been making me busy. I expect that as soon as I have finished these commissions, you will be seeing more of the comic very soon after.
The Prince of the Badlands is no longer going to be a 2D animated series. It is instead switching to 3D. In fact, aside from the comic book, I will likely be making all other projects in 3D from here on out. I need to learn the software so this kinda helps with that.
And to anyone that ever read the lore pieces about the Prince of the Badlands, you will have a good idea of how the story goes but... well I changed a LOT for it so it is going to be much more expansive than the short stories I made a while ago. And pretty different so yeah. Anyway, ciao guys.

God Damn Call of Duty Sucks
General | Posted 4 years agoAnd this basically goes for all of them after Modern Warfare 3, where even arguably that one was shit.
Multiplayer on the latest ones is absolutely crap. And the tick rate on the games are so low that half the time, it feels like you've been cheated out of a life because from your perspective, that dude you opened fire on first actually shot you first. When you have a tick rate of 12-20htz, that is NOT good. That is actually borderline garbage. In fact, that is completely unacceptable for a FPS that is as large as CoD. For ANY FPS actually.
Most FPS run at 30htz or higher. I think Battlefield (which I refuse to buy because that would support EA and I fucking hate EA with a passion that burns brighter than the sun) runs at like 60htz so while EA is a shitty company, at least their game actually fucking runs decently.
And yes I am aware that Activision is a shitty company. If I had it my way, Ubisoft, EA, and Activision would all fall apart and disappear into the wind. I do not like these companies. But SO fucking many of my friends do so I by peer pressure have to get at least one of these fucking companies games just so I have something to play with them.
But fuck me, man. I bought CoD: Modern Warfare. It WILL be the last one I ever play. This game is boring, manipulative, shitty, AND filled with microtransactions and other stupid ass, shady, or otherwise incompetent decisions.

Mario Golf Makes Me Moist
General | Posted 4 years agoI used to play Toadstool Tour with my lil bro back on the GameCube and now we have a Mario Golf with online features so I can play with him again on Switch? Like hell to the fuck ya I want to get that game.
I didn't know what game Nintendo would bring this year that would make me have this much of a hard on for wanting to buy it but motherfucker I was not expecting it to be that. I am not joking, I FUCKING NEED THAT GAME IN MY LIFE NOW.

Pip isn't a femboy.
General | Posted 4 years agoI've recently been hearing that Pip is a femboy and while admittedly his design was inspired by the likes of artists such as Tokifuji, he really isn't that "girly" looking.
If anyone had ever bothered to even look at pip, they'd notice real quick that he has a toned and even muscular body. Pip has almost a swimmers body.
And yes he has a bubble butt but damn lol its not like if you put him in a dress that he would instantly be indistinguishable from a girl or something.
Pips original design, admittedly, is a LOT more feminine. Like "damn near impossible to tell he is male" feminine. But I changed that because I didn't want my gay character to be that girly because I thought it would actually piss off gay viewers. I even gave him facial hair to further differentiate him from his original form.
Pip is NOT a femboy. He might be androgynous to an extent but he is not a femboy.

Chest pain.
General | Posted 4 years agoAlright. It's time to lay down what's going on in my life.
Why have I not been making TPW Chapter 13?
The answer? I'm stressed. I've gotten to a point in my life where I have started to develop chest pains from this stress and I am growing suspicious if I am nearing a potential heart attack.
My life is utter hell at the moment. I have financial issues, debt, no where to turn except California if I must and also I have been constantly arguing with my roommates.
I wish I could just get rid of this stress but I can't. So I am at a loss for what to do.
My looks are fading, my mental state is decreasing, my way of life is facing a serious reflection. I'm stressed. And I don't want to be anymore. I'm not even thirty yet. I don't want this anymore.
I just want to draw. I want to make stuff. But this stress really stops me from doing that.

I am changing my prices for commissioned comics
General | Posted 4 years agoIf you got grandfathered in, then you don't need to worry. You are not going to pay anymore than you already paid for the one you are getting.
But from here on out, when I am commissioned to do a comic book piece for someone, I am going to charge at MINIMUM $20 PER PANEL. Frankly it was drawn to my attention that I definitely undersold myself for what was being asked and I must admit that I very much agree. That will not be happening again.
Also if the comic is simply several pages of single pieces as opposed to panels, I will still be charging $40 starting. Don't try to cheat the system, bro. It won't work for you in the end.
Keep in mind, anyone that wants to commission me for a comic book format style commission, I usually make between four to five panels per page. Seldom does it go above and below that.
Why have I changed my pricing? Frankly, the amount of time it takes for me to map out a page and then draw it is about three hours on average. This varies HEAVILY on several factors such as details like backgrounds, poses, fight scenes, how many people are in the panel, etc. All of which are decided by the commissioner. So I will be charging a minimum of $20 per panel.
The previous pricing method made me realize that work to hour ratio was well below minimum wage so I am not going to do that anymore. I might not be an amazing artist, but I am a competent enough one to know I am worth more than that.

We just need a good asteroid impact is all.
General | Posted 4 years agoI just. I just... Now hear me out! Meteor, right? Slamming into... IDK... I don't care. Big one. Like a mile wide. SMACK! Right into an island or something. Dust everywhere, global cooling happens and we go into a mini ice age. Just so I don't have to deal with this heat anymore.
Politics in the workplace...
General | Posted 4 years agoIt's come to my attention that the coworker I currently work under may in fact be an actual racist and massive Trump supporter. This came to my attention when we were having a nice chat that turned into an argument when the man started talking about how the police are not racist or biased towards black people. I... do not share that opinion and in fact am quite on the opposite side here. Much as I tried to let this go, the guy kept talking about it and I finally started to say my piece about the situation, citing my own sources that basically heavily imply that there is a bias against black people in the police force.
This resulted in us getting into a heated argument that lead up to the events of the George Floyd case, a case they seemingly knew quite little about both individuals in the situation, in which I finally snapped at hearing the dude saying he was glad Floyd was dead. My response was I am glad his murderer was behind bars and should never have been a cop in the first place. I ended the conversation with a "Don't talk to me about shit you know nothing about." and walked away.
Now I have to go back into that job, but I do have a sense of hatred for the man now. So I may be looking for work elsewhere soon. All because politics got involved.
This is why you don't talk about politics in a work place. You will run into people at your work that view things differently. Sometimes to a point where you cannot help but think of them as an enemy of your beliefs.

A study of Typhon and its major moons.
General | Posted 4 years agoA study of Typhon and its major moons:
Typhon is a rogue exoplanet with a mass the size of nearly two entire Jupiters put together, being just over 600 earth masses and a surface gravity that is around 39m/s² in strength. Its circumference is approximately 350,000 miles and is travelling at a speed of over 1,200 kilometers per second.
It has a faint ring system around it due to the moon Hydra spewing out massive amounts of water, forming a small ring around the massive planet. A feature we will get at in a minute.
Typhon's color is a aquamarine green color due to hydrogen, helium, methane, and amonia gases existing in its atmosphere. Surrounding the planet are over two hundred satellites that consist of major moons and several captured asteroids. It has four major moons: Echidna, Hydra, Cyclops, and Chimera.
Chimera is the closest moon to Typhon. Its circumference is approximately 4,000 miles and a mass of just under 0.07 Earth masses. Chimera has several shades of brown, grey, and orange terrain on its surface. This is due to the quick activity of its tectonic plates and tidal forces caused by Typhon. Incidently, this also means it has a very high and extreme amount of volcanic activity too.
Cyclops is the next moon away from Typhon, it is the second largest, being around 5,000 miles in circumference and a mass of 0.09 masses of earth. It gets its name for the massive crater on its surface that stretches for some five hundred miles, making it appear to have an "eye." It is believed that it collided into another, smaller moon that once revolved around Typhon as well.
Echidna is the third furthest away moon of Typhon and the largest one, being roughly 8,000 miles in circumference and also having a mass of 0.12 earth masses. Somehow, it has a magnetosphere. Very unusual for a moon to have, even one as large as Echidna. It is believed this is due to tidal forces of it and Typhon causing tidal friction that has kept the core active and in a molten liquid state. The magnetosphere is weak but visibile, as Echidna does experience aurora borealis on its poles.
And finally the furthest moon is Hydra. Hydra is called so for the constantly massive volumes of water geysers it has and the fact that they spew out of the moon at heights as high as one hundred and eighty miles, appearing like large necks of a monster. Hydra is the smallest major moon by only having a circumference of 3,800 miles and a mass of 0.06 earth masses. It is believed that Hydra may be capable of supporting life.

Nintendo...
General | Posted 4 years agoOkay... well... I mean i got Metroid and Zelda. A release date for BOTW2. That's good. New footage for it. Pretty good. Seems like the sky will be a big deal.
Metroid Dread looks good. No word on Mettoid Prime 4 though....
It was good... it was alright...
*screams of rage in the distance as the sound furniture is breaking.*
But in all seriousness, it was not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Mario Golf looks fun. I literally have no idea if they announced anything else that involved their own actual other franchises aside from WarioWare.
But at least I got to see Zelda and Metroid.

Okay Nintendo, its your shot now. Come on.
General | Posted 4 years agoThis is all you got to do Nintendo: show us Zelda and Metroid. That is it. I would also like to see a Mario Odyssey sequel and a actually good looking StarFox game but I am willing to compromise and not be too demanding.
Zelda and Metroid, Nintendo.
And let me just say one more thing:
If you fuck this up...
I will fuck you up.

How to fix Final Fantasy Origins.
General | Posted 4 years agoFinal Fantasy Origin. Looks fun but there is just one thing I would correct.
*removes literally all the dialogue.*
Okay now we can play.

Starfield Just Got A Teaser AND....
General | Posted 4 years agoI know about as much as I did two years ago about it. How the fuck is it that they can expect us to get excited when that was all they showed?
Also its exclusive to Xbox. I mean I know that Microsoft bought them but I didn't expect Starfield to be the first game they would make exclusive. Whatever, its coming on PC too so I am gonna buy it there.

Ubisoft, What the fuck man?
General | Posted 4 years agoMan E3 is starting off kinda weak. Ubisoft fucking revealed... a Tom Clancy game about... aliens? I don't fucking know. And I don't fucking care. Game looks generic as fuck.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla is getting an update. Cool I guess. They added one handed swords to the game... which is funny because the FUCKING VIKINGS NEVER USED TWO HANDED SWORDS ANYWAY, IDIOTS. You talk a lot about being historically accurate but you have no idea what weapons they even used. Two handed swords were extremely rare during the time of the vikings and there is no record of them using any of the ones available at the time. How you guys can claim this stuff is historical fiction and not give the vikings their famous viking sword is beyond me.
Mario Rabbids looks fun but it is not for me.
Oh look, Just Dance is back!... Good for the four people that still play that lol
Far Cry 6 looks.... wow. The fidelity in those graphics are not pleasant to look at honestly. But maybe the game will be fun.
Avatar is getting a game. We have no idea what type of game because all we got was a cinematic trailer. I mean fuck sakes. This was a really weak ass showing.
WHERE THE FUCK IS BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL 2, UBISOFT??? WHERE THE FUCK IS IT????
