-It's E3 2021

-The presentation opens up with not gameplay footage.

-Trailer opens up with Galeem destroying everyone again, then we get to the wasteland scene. We don't see whose actually escaped the carnage. Then we get this:

I have many questions and am not too thrilled for many reasons.

I'm so sorry for putting this off, but I'm ready to chat a bit about Oneshot! I always feel like I wanna do a million things when I get home from work, but then only ever get to like, two of 'em, lol. Well, without further ado:

Gotta tell me dude.

How did that talk between Niko and the World Machine hit you? 'Cause it hit me deep, man. Real deep. I still think about that scene a lot sometimes.

Also, the credits sequence? MMMMMMMMMMMMM perfection.

Very hyped and even more hyped if Chara is playable too (like if they take up half of Frisk's alts. or something).

Quite late here so don't know how long I be able to talk, but I can answer this post at least.

Honestly, it kinda reversed the opinion I had on The Entity on the base game run. Where it's jerk & smug way of talking at me kinda gave me a bad impression of them, as in I thought they were up to no good. Especially when it tried to lock Niko in the tower by making them sleep forever. Bad vibes, BAD VIBES.

Once I explored the tower, got the Niko Leave ending & starting my new game + however, I noticed little details here and there about it thanks to what the new characters were saying about it, slowy changing my opinion on it, and when I got to THAT scene, I was like.

Everything made sense, and not only that, I felt bad for it! Like I know tons of stories dealing with AI getting consciouness and our relations with fictional characters (hi Undertale!), but that scene really hit me right in the heart, and cemented the ending as absolutely worth all the pain there was to get there.

Also, being able to walk in the credit & talk one last time to all the important NPC we met in the way (Silver best robot btw) was the cherry on top of this cake that was Oneshot.

....too bad now we never be able to play or talk with the real Niko. ;_;

I legit thought The Entity was the villain until Solstice.

Then hoooooly crud does the game give you the whole picture, lol. It's wild stuff, and I don't know if I've ever seen a piece of media handle it quite like Oneshot does. Like, the concept of being meta is one thing, but like...Oneshot transcends that very trope and starts to make you feel truly invested in it. Like, obviously, it's a fictional world, and none of the characters, places, or events are real, but they have so much love and life written into them that they just feel real enough while you're enjoying them.

I'm probably rambling a bit, ha ha, but I can't help it: This game is a legit work of art to me, and I'm so happy you enjoyed it. :)

Yeah, even though other games have lots of fourth walls elements in them, none quite reach the level Oneshot has.

I do feel like tho that all stuff could be the reason why the game didn't catch on like others games, but hey, what matter is that peoples enjoy it & that it was successful enough for the devs to keep making what they love. (which i'm gonna guess is the case? Hopefully?)

Also, looking at the worst ending in the OG version of the game (aka closing the game, killing Niko AND the world) is like peak nightmare/heartbreak fuel.

I love that I hate it and I never want to ever get this ending on my own.

As much as I would prefer it to be someone like Undyne or Metton, I can't say no to more Undertale content in the game.

You say that as if a playthough of Undertale is actually in my future. I'm not gonna because I don't like memes and I don't like turn based RPGs and it's *ING HARDER THEN [REDACTED]'S RIGIG *!
Undertale is more than just a meme, and you shouldn’t judge it because the fanbase is weird. I’m sure you like things with weird ass fanbases. And it’s more action focused than your usual rpg, you need quick reflexes if you’re gonna survive.

Seeing that Undertale came back from the brink of death after the Sans Mii costume

It fills me with DETERMINATION.

Oh, hey, uh....Announcement from funny cat man!

I won't be here tomorrow until proooooobably the evening. Sonic Central is tomorrow and I don't want spoilers, so after tonight, I'm going on a media blackout. No Smashboards, no Twitter, no YT, no nothin' 'till after I get home and watch it.

However...I am also gonna film a reaction! Howeverx2 though: I don't have all the proper assets in place for y'all to see my beautiful, cow cat face while I watch just yet. So, I'm gonna try to throw something quick together tonight to act as a bit of a proof of concept of what I wanna do.

'Cause of this, I ain't gonna make the video public: I'd like it to just be whoever here's interested can leave a like down below and I'll be creating a group DM and sending invites to people who liked once the video's ready and y'all can maybe watch it if ya want. Or not. 'S cool either way, just thought I'd offer if people were interested. :nifty:

Hook me up, fam.

Here's hoping we see some really cool **** tomorrow. I'd at the very least like to see that Sonic Colors remaster officially announced.

Ya ever get that feeling where you want to draw, but I can't think of anything to actually draw?

I'd draw my sona again, but eh. I feel like I need to practice a bit more before I fully commit to spending days of my life finializing the design of something that important to me.
