i feel like every moment i check bsky there's something new about the mods further demonization of anything it deems to be "sexual" and it's especially nasty considering how they're clearly aware of the left-leaning ideologies of its userbase

yet another wip of qifrey

hello #portfolioday! i'm an illustrator and concept/vis-dev artist who loves pulling inspiration from stories and crafting an image that represents all things there are to love about them i'm also available for work! 🎨: asturlavi.weebly.com 🏪: asturlavi.bigcartel.com 🔗: linktr.ee/asturlavi

genuinely tiring to go in the internet and see yet another artist forced out of the community for *check notes* fictional crimes. as if something like game of thrones isn't universally lauded as one of the most popular fantasy stories despite its grotesque subject matter

stories, in their essence, are supposed to explore the full spectrum of the human experience, no matter how immoral. you're allowed to feel uncomfortable, allowed to even block and avoid certain topics, but what you're not supposed to do is harass and call out creators over this disagreement

looking forward to experiencing the post-oscars chaos as if the game awards wasn't enough

the moment no one has been waiting for #hades2 🔗 asturlavi.bigcartel.com/category/hades

spayed a pregnant stray cat out of the kindness of my own heart and ultimately was rewarded with a cat that yells at me to wake up because she wants to go out and return to the wilderness and doesn't realize that just a few days ago her reproductive organs were removed

Re;MATCH is NOW LIVE ON KICKSTARTER!!!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bro... This game has been in the works for over 7 years now, and I am VERY VERY EXCITED that it's finally live! You can play it RIGHT NOW on tabletop simulator, I promise you're gonna love it ❤️💛💙

truly fun times to be middle eastern huh

not sure where this trend in western circles has stemmed from that a flaw or a morally abhorrent trait incorporated into a certain character reflects the artist than the characters themselves. as if artists are all mindless idiots that are incapable of separating themselves from their stories

"But I hate ICE and support trans rights and etc etc" if you aid in the suppression of art, you are a fascist. One of the textbook markers of a fascist state is the suppression of art it deems "degenerate". If you have one empathetic cell left in your brain, you'll start digging into the history

pathologic 2/3 doodles, trying to get a hang of how to draw the town's doctors and capture their in-game likeness

love the gothic genre love how it's wildly misunderstood to this day

"don't put all your eggs in one basket" but they forget that each basket is riddled with holes and one breath away from disintegrating, and the eggs you've poured into them will crack upon the ground and you'll keep refilling it to no avail

ok. calm now, that was a fantastic state of play after repeat mediocrity. recession indicator and all that, especially when they're porting some pretty great classics + reviving a few + some interesting new games coming out as well... now to find the time...........

i'm trying to relax on all the yelling but oh. my god. a god of war remake. oh m y g o d

CASTLEVANIA GAME LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

MGS4 REMAKE MGS4 REMAKE MGS4 REMAKE

this glimpse of control's newest game is giving me the biggest nostalgia flashbacks to infamous

man, i'm so excited for resident evil 9

initiating this account with the sacred doodles of my first pathologic 1 playthrough

you know what. might as well: bsky.app/profile/asst...

one bad decision away from making a side account dedicated to me yapping about games i've recently played i.e pathologic i.e i.e burakhovsky brainrot i.e i.e i.e trying to spare people from the brainrot that is crippling parts of my brain

definitely not late to the party #angeldevil #chainsawman

as an iraqi, it's just really fascinating to observe the imperial boomerang work in miraculous ways in real time

i haven't been this down abysmal for a character in awhile. consider a schedule ruined if dankovsky so much as utters "i need to go to burakh" because i'm already running in whatever direction he's in

artemy burakh i wish u were real

hello #portfolioday! i'm an illustrator who leans towards fantasy and gothic horror. i'm also available for illustration or visual development gigs (and currently working on a comic portfolio)! 🎨: asturlavi.weebly.com 🔗: linktr.ee/asturlavi

i wish i kept a thread of my experiences in pathologic 3 so far because i can't emphasize how much it truly is a one of a kind game. it's one i can see why IP lodge had difficulty completing from the getgo because it discards essential (capitalist) game design components to attract a mass audience

old doodles #pathologic

i think i need to grow more comfortable with posting sketches again because even if i (mostly unintentionally) go quiet, i do have an incredible backlog of sketches that i don't really have the opportunity to share because they're usually... from relatively obscure things....

played homo-i mean, homicipher last night, mr. crawling my beloved... can't believe i'm conducting linguistic studies to be able to communicate with him and the other monster waifus (<- idiot playing on the hardest difficulty)

i don't think i've expressed how much i love gdt's portrayal of the creature and it drives me insane that jacob elordi did such an amazing job of capturing the essence of how the creature is portrayed within the book

i'm really glad people are waking up to how so much of the technological devolution we're having is deeply intertwined with the current GenAI craze. even the noticeably high outages we experience from AWS to cloudflare are related to this, since companies across the board are prioritizing GenAI

let me tell you a story #mightynein #calebwidogast

the reception to this years tga is understandable once you realize it attracted more viewers than the super bowl and people have grave misunderstandings how award shows work. it's not about quality, it's about popularity. there are phenomenal games that i've played that haven't even gotten noticed

caleb widogast.. . . . #mightynein

being an artist drawn to several genres at once is difficult mostly because it means you attract a variety of followers, but the intersection between those interests are next to nonexistent. like yes i read classics, i also read danmei, but i also watch tons of movies, and watch anime and-
