So Did Any One’s Else Notice That In Ep8 Of Season 1 That During The Group Conversation With The Chair

Context: the studio that made Hi-Fi Rush, Ghostwire Tokyo, & The Evil Within (Tango Gameworks) got shut down by Microsoft.

What I am saying is from the perspective of an American born and raised in the U.S. I’m unaware of what this is like in most other countries and I will be primarily talking about AA & AAA games: the indie scene is thriving

Sucks that we live in a society that discourages passion, creativity, & art unless it directly contributes to lining the pockets of billionaires: this is especially evident when you look at how corporations treat their employees & IPs, work culture, and the U.S education system. There are absolutely amazing games & IPs that are left in the past because they didn’t give the people on top as much money as they hoped for or there are more profitable options, so instead we get an over saturated market generally made for fans of popular IPs, shooters, and action adventure games because those sell the best. This is why a lot of Nintendo’s, Sony’s, and Microsoft’s older IPs never get used anymore: this is why we keep getting the same games, but with a new gimmick and shinier coat of paint. I love shooters and action adventure games, but we need more games that are unique and/or of less popular genres that stick around. Insomniac for example has made great games that are full of creativity and passion such as Sunset Overdrive & Spyro, but now they’re not much more than a glorified Marvel games studio: their new games are good, but it’s all stuff we’ve seen numerous times. We still do get great, soulful games that aren’t left to the sands of time, but there have been less of them as it moves on.

Vent art

this terrified kitty won't let go of the young man who found it under the rubble.

the reporter was wondering if animals associations would care for the animals situation in gaza and the man answers her: "they do not care about us; human beings, you think they care about animals?! they do not care about us. no one does."

Can confirm we do travel in packs

I'm just saying queer kids, especially in Midwestern suburbia, travel in packs and if Ruth is canonically queer there ain't no way that Pete and Richie are cishet

the infantilization of jay is one of the worst things about marble hornets fandom and no one really talks about it

Please share !!

Dear followers and mutuals,

I need your help ! ⚠️⚠️⚠️

(sorry for the long post)

The same Astarion artwork continues to be stolen time and time again by unscrupulous shops (I've filed over 20 complaints, just on Etsy alone). One particular independent shop refuses to remove the items using my artwork, ignores my messages, and deletes all my comments warning buyers.

Here's the specific artwork, my original fanart, and the low-quality and insolent modification to turn it into a shoddy sweatshirt and t-shirt design. Which is promoted on TikTok !

This has to stop.

Sharing your work on the internet, or even just sharing your passion, has become a nightmare for artists and creators. We already have enough to deal with in the face of AI threats and platforms like Aliexpress; now we have to manage a surge in theft as well.

This shop is also appropriating other artworks from the BG3 fandom.

Here are the screenshots :

I'm seeking your help in identifying the authors of these artworks so that I can notify them.

I'm also currently in contact with a specialized attorney because I've had enough.

The cup is full, and I want to be able to showcase my drawings without enriching thieves. It's particularly painful during this period of economic crisis, where, like many others, I'm struggling to make ends meet, to feed my two young kids.

Here are all the contact details for this fraudulent shop :

⚠️ Please share this post and report Melody prints social media's accounts ⚠️ Everyone needs to know they are a THIEF ⚠️

The website says the shop is located in 217 S Parramore Ave, Orlando, FL 32805, United States

Also, Ghosttraveler on TikTok has made a callout video to help, here is the link, if you can share it as well : https://www.tiktok.com/@ghosttraveler/video/7291769599530454314

Thank you so much for reading this, and for your help.

If Capcom decides to remake Code Veronica, imagine the potential power remake Steve Burnside holds. I’m certain that he’ll get the Carlos and Luis glowup treatment. Steve is a generally disliked character and if Capcom can change that, his entire character and arc might be another banger. Also he’s almost like the free trial period to Luis. He’s kinda cheeky. Never noticed before but both have similar pistols. And with remake Luis now, both have have ties to Umbrella. Steve even refers to himself as the “knight in shining armor” at one point. And that part in CV is definitely gonna hit. Okay damn, I need it right now Capcom.
