Unburned Oracle Conceptart for @vampiretacticsgame.bsky.social

I watched DMC season 2. My take is: Shankar is quite full of himself for someone parasitizing as much as possible isn't he

Switched laptops. Finally got acquainted with a mouse (if you know me for a while, you know of my years-long quest to fix a trackpad problem that exists in every modern laptop). And now the laptop has microstutters of its own. Great. It's a Legion Slim 5i. If you know how to fix it, hit me up.

o fangame de megaman tem uma arma chamada "Queima Rosca" e o ícone é uma rodinha de fogo é isso mesmo que eu tô vendo?

I'd HATE to create a story, get the rare chance to remake the story and fix any inconsistencies I caused when I was less experienced, then see my fans go "lmao the "canon" in this keeps retconing itself lmao I'm a long time fan and Mário Santos does not give a fuck, why do ya'll care so much"

Watching the public discussion regarding the RE adaptation and how that convo turned into "the RE games' stories are just written on a whim, nobody in control gives a fuck" People truly do believe these games are all just made by the laziest people in the world.

I have a question: How is it that we can recognize an AI generated font? People will sometimes AI generate images with text in them, and the font is always disgustingly perceptible. The text looks perfectly readable, though. What is it on AI fonts that looks souless? I can't explain.

O que eu vivo dizendo Pra quem fala demais sobre defesa do trabalhador, trabalhador é quem bate laje.

one more day of "video games are a lower form of media, you should be thankful [BIG NAME] is doing something with the stupid idiot piece of media you like" discourse I'm not even a huge RE fan but I can feel the pain emanating

if one day the muses give me strength to create something very famous, I'll be sure to make it as unnatractive as possible to teenagers poor gooseworx

I never much liked the timelines I see floating out there on the internet. So, I assembled one. Have fun. Full version: drive.google.com/file/d/1YM0Y...

i wonder what it feels like to get hit by a hadouken

Well fuck Castlevania: The Adventure, I guess!

During Easter, people of wicked intent will resurrect Dracula and Simon Belmont will defeat him for the first time. Except 300 years ago. Great job, Simon!

On the subject of video game movies, I'm already dreading Street Fighter. People will try to make you believe a Street Fighter movie can only work if it's stupid. Don't let them.

I watched the Mario Galaxy movie. It's not doomsday time like many critics are making it seem But dang man, you'd expect they could write a basic story with logical conclusions and consequences to things. The story's details go NOWHERE most of the time. And I do mean NO WHERE.

And btw, about this, I've been told before "Yeah man they're not gonna say plainly Ecclesia is the Church. It's metaphorical, it's about the subtext" This is the franchise they're saying cannot be direct about the Church:

People will see me defend Castlevania's portrayal of religion and get the impression I'm a STAUNCH CHRISTIAN. I'm actually an agnostic, and even had my own Reddit Atheist phase. But I like Castlevania and I have eyes. I can READ and see the product is not saying what certain fans think it is.

I gained a few followes from that Death Killed Lisa theory. I was asked once or twice why I don't post my Castlevania stuff (and others I wrote) over at Elon Musk's cocksucking meeting. This is why:

The amount of creator mythologizing I saw come from a certain fandom in 2 days is astounding and kinda scary

I'm not a fan of this argument, @tobyfox.undertale.com. You are not the one who will play your game in other languages, neither the one who will enjoy the way jokes work in languages you don't understand. Just provide guidelines and let the translators do their magic. It's a matter of confidence.

For me, it's really simple: You want the [VERY FAMOUS] game that is selling in your region to have localization in your language? Drop a negative review, and tell the developer that to have your money, the dev needs to localize the game in your language. Simple as.

Banco de espera de hospital me pega muito. Alguém pensou "já que o paciente precisa esperar 25 horas no banco até ser atendido, pq a gente não bota os piores bancos já criados?" Arquitetura hostil do sistema de saúde, pra ver se tu morre na cadeira antes do atendimento e dá menos trabalho.

You'll never comprehend how painful this looks to me

Basically my only messaging inbox working right now is Bluesky's. On every other platform except the ones where nobody messages me (Cara, for example), the DMs are not working properly. I have emails written by real potential clients getting sent to Gmail's spam folder.

não acredito então trabalhador NÃO é só quem carrega peso e bate laje??? precisou dizer o óbvio, mas são tempos onde o óbvio precisa ser dito

It may be obvious that out of the Drova enemies/bosses I worked on the pixelart for, this one was closest to my heart. He's obviously a very good dog.

Lecarde Chronicles 2 received an update after 10 years, including stuff like a certain lore detail being better clarified. Get your Castlevania fix right now: github.com/katriellucas...

great reporting here. basically yes DLSS 5 is running a gen AI model on the 2D output and nothing more. it doesn’t know anything about the 3D scene, textures / models / lighting / PBR other than what the model infers by looking at a frame. TL:DR, they sped up slop. youtu.be/D0EM1vKt36s?...

It's an unfortunate self-feeding cycle: nobody cares about Grant > he doesn't show up because nobody cares > nobody cares about Grant > he doesn't show up because nobody cares Grant has a ton of potential, but we're at the whims of writers who don't give a fuck, so he disappears in his own story

That said: Ask me anything about the lore of Castlevania 3: Dracula's Curse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"B-BUT MARIO, THE DEVELOPERS AGREED! ACCEPT OR PERISH, MARIO! THE DEVELOPERS THEMSELVES THINK NVIDIA'S REVEAL IS GOD'S GIFT TO HUMANITY!!!!!!!!!!"

I think one of the chief (and MOST PRINCIPAL) details that make people react like this is telling them that the plot of Castlevania is the Belmonts fighting Satan, who is Dracula himself, and not just the clumsy B-movie vampire in the funny castle People either instantly tune out or dive in further

LMAO TRUE

eu mal posso esperar pra dar uma merda enorme e vazar meus dados pessoais por causa da verificação de idade 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰

Also, the problem is not just faces or hair or something. It's the whole thing. This entire thing is garbage, top to bottom. This entire thing should get the whole board of directors fired fucking immediately.

"b-but the developers appeared in the video and said they agree and intended it!!!" I do not think Todd Howard was PERSONALLY designing all visuals in Starfield. I do not think the art department, the guys ACTUALLY responsible for the element getting raped here, were asked a goddamn thing.

I wanna see how many of these video-game as art defenders - you know the types, the ones that go batshit insane when you ask for a pause button on a souslike - will say anything about this nvidia DLSS5 bullshit

Não tem mais nada nesse mundo que vai fazer você querer desejar coisas horríveis pra empregados da Adobe do que tentar descobrir como bota um efeito de stroke em um PNG no illustrator COMO alguém aprende a usar esta MERDA

ter que instalar o illustrator pra fazer um efeito de stroke porque o photoshop não faz é de fuder

O que é engraçado considerando que o Carl Sagan é quem fez aquele texto lindo sobre o pálido ponto azul, onde está literalmente TUDO que importa. Molecada assiste Cosmos e conclui "caraio a gente é inútil" quando a mensagem é "na vastidão do universo, tudo que você ama está aqui"

the demo for my Castlevania-like "Lady Dracula" that i've been making since 2023 currently has less than 100 reviews. you can help me survive as a starving artist by trying it out (15-30 minute playtime) and leaving a brief (maybe a sentence) review here: store.steampowered.com/app/4044270/...

Dang I swear my screen can't display certain colors

I built a Snowman! I hope you like it~ 😅☃️ #lowpoly #gamedev #indiedev

Some years ago I posted somewhere how people hadn't yet noticed how Konami owns VERY LITTLE of Castlevania. Pratically just the proper name. And how people would eventually notice it and start acting on that knowledge. There you go.
