[Ivander]

So let's look at New Years' Azura.

She flies on a Pegasus, she is a Singer, so she should know how to tempo and she uses a Hagoita, which is used to play Hanetsuki, which in turn is a badminton-like sport........anyone else see the connection?

Hey all, so I've been planning out a new fanfiction, and considering how I've advertised it elsewhere, it made sense to bring it here! Some of you have heard of it, but many of you haven't!

The Stories of New Tendo City is a 21st Century reimagining of Nintendo characters living in a Nintendo version of New York City called New Tendo City. Every Nintendo character ever created lives in the city, and its basically a sitcom with lots of slapstick similar to the original Looney Tunes of yesteryear!

Above, are the two articles. The first one is the main article, and the second one is the character list. Both the episode list, and the character list are updated frequently!

I would love feedback, episode ideas, and character requests to be done. Anyways, enjoy the article folks! ~ Afro

Well, seeing as you asked for feedback, I read over the character list, the premise article, and the stuff posted on your deviantart. I'll just say right now that it honestly isn't good so far. At all. Honestly it's kind of insulting, if anything.

The main issue stems from an inherent disconnect between what the article says the premise is and what it actually delivers. According to the article, "The series is intended to be in good taste, and Muldrew has stated that he didn't want to detract from the personalities that made the many Nintendo characters enjoyed by their fans." But the entire premise has the characters reinvented as actors. As such, what made the characters enjoyable to so many literally never happened in this universe, with almost every character being so different from the versions we as an audience know that they may as well have been OCs.

And this is illustrated even further in the first episode posted on your deviantart. It stars Lucina, a character well liked by many for persevering in a reality where her father and most of her country died at the hands of Grima. She is stern and stoic, but longs for a simpler life free of the pains of endless war. She's also comically bad at picking clothing, having no fashion sense in the slightest.

...And here, she's a foulmouthed and fashionable everyday girl who ends up getting sexually harassed and borderline sexually assaulted for what basically amounted to a humiliation fetish story (and the presence of an alternative yaoi version and the presence of fetish tags on the piece confirm this). What the ****?

No, seriously...what the ****?

If your aim was to stay true to the characters that people already like, you've already failed miserably on the first episode. When you butcher a character to that degree, you alienate your audience. And this is clearly an inherent problem with your universe: by making all of their games fictional and making each character nothing like their canon self, you aren't delivering on your promise of respecting what made people love the characters in the first place. This is especially true if you take a popular character and make her the subject of a public nudity and humiliation fetish in the same breath.

There is also the issue that Lucina technically shouldn't even exist in this world because you made Marth gay for Roy, meaning that Lucina shouldn't exist because Marth never got with Caeda, but that's another matter entirely.

Other than that the prose itself was amateurish. Sloppy and misused dialogue tags, poor pacing, stressing details that shouldn't have needed to be stressed, that kinda thing. One example is a case of inconsistency where you describe a metric ****-ton of unnecessary and distracting cameos on Lucina's way to the store, only to say she didn't pay attention to any of that. Considering the story is told from her viewpoint, she clearly did. Either way it was unnecessary detailing that did more to distract the reader than to build the world.

Honestly this whole concept needs to be rebuilt from the ground up if you're serious about it. Because in its current form, not only did it not make me want to continue reading, it actively made me want to avoid the series, and that's a problem.



Also you shouldn't give a direct link to your deviantart because there's an image in your gallery where you can clearly see Link's dong.

Don't we have rules against posting porn? Even if this is only a written piece and a link, I'm pretty sure this isn't allowed, it has no NSFW warning either.
I thought it was just a harmless fanfic but this is crossing a line.
If we are allowed to post erotic fanfics though, anyone wants to read my FrogXTsuyu fanfic?

I never watched Steven Universe, this looks pretty interesting. I do not know enough in this thread it seems!
Is Xenoblade Chronicles 2 going to get an update?

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

The Deviantart link(s) have been removed. Being it was an error in judgment, no major issue has occurred, and nothing more needs to be done. I will personally talk with Afro about the situation.

Keep in mind everybody makes mistakes. It's obvious they had no intention of posting porn here and simply had a derp moment, forgetting. Thank you for your time.

Obviously, we know there are more considering they've been conolising the whole galaxy but I didn't think there'd be many left
Sentient species near Homeworld are probably all extinct though

Well if we are talking about writing.... I'll change the subject ever so slightly.

Question about the media you like.

How dark can a work be before you consider it too dark for you? What if a work deals with very dark subjects but also deals with very lighthearted stuff at other times?

 

[Wario Bros.]

Just finished watching the first three episodes of The Tick (2016)

I'm really liking it so far.

I think if it finds the right balance and makes a point out of it, darkness can be great. Execution matters though. There's a fine line between darkness and tryhard edginess.

For example, in someone else's hands DDLC could have been a cringe fest. But Dan Salvato made a point out of the darker aspects of the game and as such, the darkness was "earned," so to speak.

Basically it's hard to answer because it's one of those case by case basis things.

[mario123007]

What rare blade or blade in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 do you think is the best to use in battle?

That's a good question.
Technically... All rare Blades are the best.
My favorite Blades are: Pyra, Newt, Floren, Finch, Gorg, Perceval, Adene and Electra.

Is the main Subject Fire Emblem - Xenoblade Chronicles 2 - DBZ mixture?
This is a social Nintendo Zone. Smash 4 is Nintendo.

Huh? Even now I don't see thatuch user talking about Xenoblade.

'been playing alot of Xenoblade 2. Really liking it so far. The gameplay, the story, the characters, I like all of them!

Speaking of story, my favourite moment would be:

Spoiler

Jin pulling a litteral, *Teleport behind you* "nothing personal" on Rex word for words. I love it.

No offense, but I kind of dislike how some even they put spoiler, they didn't mention which spoiler at all. It could be early fame spoiler or a very late game spoiler, which I highly recommend shouldn't even be talked about at all.

Anyway, glad you enjoy the game. I have spend a lot of time playing this game. And I am addicted to it.

This is the greatest ending to a wall of text i've seen in a while


Anyway, finished chapter 2 of XC2.

Spoiler: All sorts of stuff

Xenoblade will never be free of its shackles of RNG will it? Whether it's collectibles or blades, RNG is out to get you. At least it looks like you can pay for some items if you cant get the items.

Got my first rare blade, and it's one of the designs I really liked.

Not a huge fan of her personality though. Unfortunately, she went to Nia so she has 2 healers. She is actually slightly better than Dromarch, but I want to keep the canon Blade around.

Second, and last rare blade is a giant puff ball that wants to eat everything. Not sure if Majin Buu, or Kirby. But the weapon it comes with is awesome. Feels like i'm hitting people with a blitzball!

Character interactions are great. "You can't just go and call a lady heavy" Rex and Pyra are adorable together. TBH every character relationship is pretty great right now.

Getting more used to the gameplay, and with multiple partners it's pretty fun. Plus, more blades.

Locations are still great.

Im glad XCX has gotten me used to constantly being attacked by other enemies, but XC2 is still pretty crazy with it. So many enemies roaming around in giant paths.

Why did Jin have to be a bad guy. . .his design is so good.

It can get pretty ****ing dark for me seeing as I'm a fan of Berserk.
However even with all the dark subjects that come up frequently there is often a great deal of levity in the form of Puck and Isidro. Even Guts himself will make humorous comments from time to time despite all he's suffered.

Such levity is an absolute necessity to stop the darkness from completely engulfing the work.

I think it's great when something that starts out lighthearted starts going dark, while still maintaining some of those lighter elements and blending them together, or was that way from the get-go. So long as it isn't trying to be dark for the sake of being dark, I'm usually fine with it.

Gravity Falls is a pretty great example of how to mix lighthearted elements with darker elements in multiple ways, imo.

As for when it gets too dark for me? I dunno. I guess it depends on what's initially considered a normal type of "dark" for the work in specific

Can anyone give me a game rating on Ultra Sun, Diamond and Heart Gold? I am shiny hunting in all three of those games. I love this thread by the way. This thread is filled with peace!

I haven't played US yet.

As for Diamond, the game is good(like Pearl), but has a very slow battle system(to the point that Gen 1 may be slightly faster). However, the game has a lot of roadblocks, and can block off areas for a very long time. It somewhat railroads you too(not as badly as Black/White). You can speed it up via emulation options(removing the limit on FPS), but I personally recommend getting an official copy and supporting the businesses.

HeartGold is an excellent remake of Gold, and allows you to do a lot more. Rock Smash is easier to get, and thankfully isn't a one shot TM. The downside is getting TM's takes a lot of Game Coins, and you cannot buy these, only constantly play to get more. In a Minesweeper like minigame. This is the only downside(you can't lose coins this way, but it's tedious and long). I do reccommend a code to get tons of game coins added(or at max) because of how infuriously long this takes.

I recommend you try Ultra Sun in my opinion. It is great if you like shiny hunting for legendaries. The story is also solid. Heart Gold was two times more expensive than Ultra Sun! I hear a lot of people say Heart Gold is good! I can not wait to get my shiny starter to continue on with the game. Diamond is a bit more stressful to shiny hunt when it comes to a starter, because the soft resetting is slightly but more annoyingly longer than the Heart Gold one. Thanks for replying!

Gravity Falls is a show that balances dark themes and light-hearted fun. What's even more impressive is that it's a kid-friendly cartoon.

Rick and Morty finds this balance nicely as well, but it's more for teens and adults.

Neither of those shows are too dark for me because they don't even get close to overdoing it on the dark elements. A show that overdoes the dark elements for me is the Corpse Party anime...way too much gore for my liking.
