HEY WAIT A SECOND I THOUGHT YOU LIKED ANNA D:
MUH CAPITALISM
Speaking of Anna, I wonder why everyone fights over her when there are bajillions of her

We can all have one. The government can distribute them equally amongst everyone for extra irony.

Combat Carl's walk frame is a pain. The first one looked very awkward. He's 98% done though.

It's impossible to be 100% original these days - shrugs- as it has been said before, everything's a remix, so long as it's not blatant plagiarism it's fine
Except I didn't think of Dark Matter (from Kirby) when creating the Aspyr character.

I think OC's are pretty cool when done right. Otherwise they're (quite literally) copy and paste and recolors, and THOSE are the bad ones everyone refers to.

I very much like everyone's (actually original) OC's.
Eh, blame deviantart for that.
But don't let that stop you :)
I may not have much interest in OCs, but I can appreciate OCs when well-made and imaginative.
Thank you guys for saying that.
But some do confuse my character with this guy:

Honestly, alot of my character can be confuse by appareance with other character. Which is why i try my best on it and give them a personality on their own. Also i'm going to bed. See you later guys!

Ready for a story? Rambling might be involved, but whatever.

I sold my N64 about 4 years ago. I beat all the games I had in my library (26 games. The 2 Zeldas, DK64, MegaMan Legends, Goldeneye, Space Invaders, Super Smash Bros, Iggy's Reckin Balls, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2, and Rocket. The rest I don't remember), and I thought about keeping the N64. Then I thought "there's no way I'll be able to take care of it for even 20 years into the future" and if I felt like replaying some old classics, just use an emulator. The N64's replay value was getting stale, mostly because after I 100% SM64, The 2 Zeldas, and Super Smash Bros, I had little desire to beat the other games. After forcing myself to 100% Rocket: Robot on Wheels, I decided I was done with the N64 and put it up at my family's garage sale.

Of course, this was all before I discovered speedrunning was a thing 2 years ago. I was astounded that many of the tricks and glitches I was messing around with and failing to do in the Zeldas and DK64 were used to beat games super fast. Now I slightly regret selling my N64. There's no way I would be able to take care of my N64 long enough for it to sell millions on eBay because I had nothing that would prevent it from collecting dust or getting damaged. Plus, I could always play them on the Wii Virtual Console or an emulator. This is why I don't have high regrets for selling my N64.

I'd like to think I'm a nostalgic person, but when it comes to games, I like looking for ones I'd really enjoy playing casually and/or competitively (that includes speedrunning), especially the ones with lots of content. That's why I look forward to games like the Batman Arkham series, Legend of Zelda series, and story-based ones like Phoenix Wright or Fire Emblem. I don't mind playing old games I haven't played before (and I stumble upon classics I really enjoy), but I don't find a whole lot of replay value in them since most of them don't have a whole lot of content. I'll get a real kicker out of modern day classics since I'll be playing them A LOT, but classics on the N64 (and other old consoles)? They've had their time to shine. They'll be around, but they aren't going to be the next big thing anymore.

Moral of the story: Nostalgia for old games isn't as high as people make them out to be. Well for me, anyways.


Tl;dr - N64 lost replay value, so I sold it. Discovered speedrunning a while later, so I kinda regretted selling it but not really. I don't have a strong nostalgia for old games, but these modern ones? I probably will.

THE END

Holy Crap, I just wrote a lot of crap.

That's fine haha, always important to investigate before publishing stuff though, you never know who might have thought up similar stuff before you
:4pacman: who might also be in the mood to sue

Maybe, but I think we'd all agree that victimless crimes are utterly harmless and not punishable.

Something about the main principle of capitalism rubs me off the wrong way. I don't like how the world has become too dependent on money.

Of course, like any ideology, it does have its merits, but it also has its flaws.

And hey, I can like characters whose ideologies differ from mine, can't I? I mean, a lot of my favorite characters have questionable, if not downright evil, ideologies, so...

I feel you, man.
I married my female avatar to Walhart.
10/10 second best support game

BUT I CAN SHOW YOU THE WORLD OF BEAUTY THAT IS CAPITALISM
Namely, the general lack of the use of force to get people to do things they don't want to, and the social cooperation and harmony that it encourages. :D

Some day I'll put "I, Pencil" on Soundcloud and then spam that link here.
When the time comes, *Iwata bow* please take a look

No one here has bothered to read the longest wall of text I have ever posted in my life, right?
Okay just wondering.
That's the prettiest defect pic I have ever seen.

What are you doing?
I suddenly found the urge to create more content for the kinda dead-but reviving freeware game, Super Mario War. I decided to make skins (characters playable in the game) based around the Toy Story characters. So far I have made:
  • Woody
  • Woody without his hat
  • Soda Woody
  • Buzz
  • Rocket Buzz
  • Jessie
  • Zurg
  • An alien
  • Rex
  • Combat Carl
Since late last week, I started posting a few images regarding my project. A few of which are:
smwtoystory.png

smwtoystory5.png

smwtoystory2.png

This was done both out of boredom and to commemorate Toy Story's 20th Anniversary this year.

Thanks! :seuss:

Finished up Combat Carl.

As you can see, he looks like Action Hank in yellow. :p

Even though I'm not fully happy with his walking frame, it's not too major as last time. I'm debating whether or not to make a Burger Buzz skin to go with Soda Woody or just make Mrs. Nesbitt. I don't feel like both.
