It’s the first thing to leak the new sonic game 100 percent. Plus it’s a PowerPoint style presentation because according to OP it was from a marketing group survey he had participated in.

John Carpenter has better taste in Sonic than most Sonic fans I know.

puts on nerd glasses

The "were" in werewolf comes from the OE word meaning "man", so actually, it should have been "hogwolf" if anything. But then again, it makes more sense to make the name catchy than making it make it etymologically meaningful.

Going to take a small break due to my mental health tanking.

Only thirteen more days and I am free from the Padoru curse. Until then. :bowsette:

The more I keep thinking about Eternals. I really feel it should have been a Disney+ mini-series that way giving it more time to flesh out the characters as well as development around them.

DAILY DEMON SHOWCASE

This showcase's demon is of the Brute race:

1639320217733.png


“I’M BRUTE BERSERKER! WHAT YOU WANT DESTROYED? LEMME AT THEM! AWOO!”

Alignment: Neutral-Chaos

Origin: Norse mythology. Berserkers were warriors in the oral tradition to have fought in uncontrollable, trance-like fury, also known as ataraxia. A specific group of Berserkers, the Úlfhéðnar in the Völsunga saga, were said to wear the pelt of a wolf when they entered the battle. They were sometimes described as Odin's special warriors, clad only in a pelt from a wolf and fighting with a spear. They are the source of the English word “berserk”.

Skills: Donum Gladi, Tarukaja, Dark Sword, Charge

Next time, you will meet a demon of the Femme race.

Am I the only one who thinks this demon is hot? Yes? … Moving on. Berserker mostly looks like regular people, because they technically are. They’re not specific figures so a pelt-wearing warrior is the best you can do and this is a pretty good attempt. I liked how the eyes of the pelt actually look alive as if the animal has taken over the man. The blue paint around his body seems like a reference to the war paints practiced in some North European regions, some famously in the British Isles. It’s a rather loose geographical connection but not the biggest artistic license MegaTen took.

Hey! Hey! Hey! Guys what if this is what happens in Sonic 2.

Turns out the Knuckles tribe didn't kill Longclaw but took her as their slave to raise their superpowered kid Knuckles.

So the turning point from antagonism, to realizing that Eggman is tricking him.
Is them realizing that they both were raised by the same person.

Knuckles: You were never a god. You were never even a mobian!
Sonic: You're letting them kill Longclaw.
Knuckles: What does that mean? Why did you say that name?
Sonic: Find him...Save Longclaw.
Knuckles: Why did you say that name? Longclaw? Why did you say that name? WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME!?

First Batman and Superman, then Godzilla and Kong, and now this. The legacy continues! It must go on! Spread the word! Let's make it the next Martha meme!

Oh gosh, I haven't used stuff like that for AC in a hot minute.

I think Pumpkaboo said Bell Tree has a forum and a Discord. You could try there: The place I used might not be active anymore, it was the AC Twitter news account's Discord channel. :drshrug:

During the last update the Nintendo online app on the phone made an update to Animal Crossing part of it to have a turnip tracker. That's mostly where I look even though I don't do turnips

Alongside an Unleashed video next year, I also wanna work on making a Lost World video.

I'll start the trend of "it's good actually" so that there can be more funny Sonic fights on Twitter and Reddit. :4pacman:

Real talk, apart from the Zetti being stupid, I think Lost World is good actually, lol.

The improved physics mod and Sonic Runners OST mod make it even better. :nifty:

I've been playing DKC Tropical Freeze, both because it's Donkey Kong December and because I haven't beaten it, and the remixes for the underwater stages are great:



The songs were great to begin with, but this just takes them up to eleven.

(I probably should Metroid Dread, but considering that I have Tropical Freeze on the Wii U, it felt long overdue to play it; I'll either play Dread or DKC3 next)

Man, don’t get me started. Tropical Freeze is one of my favorite gaming soundtracks of all time. I used to listen to the whole thing daily.
