I hate summer so much man, it should not be be this hot outside.

You in 3 months:

I'd rather be freezing cold then unbearably hot

Spring is better than both of those unholy ****s (Fall gets 2nd place however)

I’d buy another portable PlayStation way more than I would a ps5

best Sony can do is get you to buy a PS5 to then buy their portable but not really PS5 “system”

Oh yeah that is totally AI

The red car is facing backwards.

And it also looks like what's supposed to be the back of the car is drawn like the front of one. Look where the side mirrors are placed.

As a bonus, take a look at the palm tree and the lady under Vault Boy’s hand on the left.

Geoff Keighly will have acknowledge Bill Clinton for real after having not one, but two different people rush the stage talking about him.

Hack and Slashes are fun. God I wish people still made them. Besides PlatinumGames of course.

Check out Genokids.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

I laughed for no reason

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Here's hoping this leads to further push back on AI art.

Sorry, I don't care what anyone says or how advanced it gets. Unless we ever get AI that can process and express emotions in virtually the same manner that humans can, AI art isn't art.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Check out Genokids.

I'll check out the demo on my steam deck

This talk of Hack and Slashes made me remember that "Character Action" is a genre title that exists and we just sorta let it happen.

You ask me to name examples of a Hack and Slash and examples of a Character Action game and I’ll name the same games. There’s no difference between the two.

They may be bread crumbs, but us Manga fans are eating well tonight for once. Am glad my wishlist came true.

Spoiler: Manga Spoiler

I'm glad I skipped everything but seasonals and Nemona this summer. Am sitting at 105k gems right now, which should be enough to get all 3 hopefully. The datamine has us at 19 new units, 8 of which are newly playable.

I don't think anyone understands how the new EX role mechanic will work, but it does sound meta changing again. I assume it means that you can change on the fly what type of EX bonus effect your Sync Move has for more customizable builds. There are a lot of units that would benefit from having a different Sync Bonus. Sync Nuke focused Strikers, Field Effect focused Techs, and Mega Evolving units all immediately come to mind.

The update is wild.

19 units is insane, at least a few are in the normal scouts but damn I’m currently at 233 with no Nemona and no gems.

I kinda want the birds but ngl some of these other banners look really good.

The artwork updates are also Some of my favorites.

That new sync move feature could be a game changer. Hopefully we get a breakdown soon.

I really hope though that the gift gem drought is for them to go all in on special promotions and events too as we are going to need those gems.

Currently typing this on a different computer borrowed since mine's getting fixed and a new program soon.

Hopefully I'll get it back in a couple of days.

From what I hear the Ahsoka show is just average and not a masterpiece

I can now confidently say that it's joever between me and Star Wars for the next couplr years

I’ve only seen most people give it high praise (not masterpiece levels, but we’re only 2 episodes deep so far). So far Ahsoka has helped fill in a couple gaps for the ending of Rebels.


…and I know this doesn’t mean much at all, but it’s definitely the most colorful of the D+ Star Wars shows and is least likely to drop the ball like Secret Invasion did (…I’m still mad that they killed Maria Hill just like that)

I'm of two minds on this. I appreciate how varied all the collabs have been in the Chapter 4 battle passes. Chapter 3 was all Disney (Marvel, Darth Vader, and Indiana Jones), whereas Chapter 4 gave us a character from gaming (Doom Slayer), a character from a book (Geralt, although his Fortnite incarnation is far more themed around the games), a character from Manga (Erin Yeager), a character from toys/movies (Optimus Prime), and now a character from an animated Television show (Ashoka) and a... not character from TikTok. Even if I personally prefer the Chapter 3 lineup (I'm a marvel nerd), I hope future passes are closer to Chapter 4, so that everyone gets something and it's not a "winner takes all".

On the other hand, I have negative interest in Icon Skins so i wish we had Anything Else as part of the pass.

I'm not sure when I'll get around to watching Ahsoka, but here's a new avatar to celebrate the premiere of it anyway.

Ahsoka herself is still one of my all-time favorite Star Wars characters and probably the best developed character in any of the TV shows.

Feels like a slam dunk collab if you ask me.

I personally find It highly unlikely, but I would love to see Star Wars:Shadows Of The Empire or Indiana Jones And The Infernal Machine on NSO ever since we got Goldeneye.

Both games have really incredible graphics for the time, and the Indiana Jones one has an awesome Monkey Island Easter Egg on the PC version:

Yeah, I completely get that. Ahsoka's development as a character over the years was incredibly well done, and I thought her portrayals in The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett were great as well. With every other Star Wars show, barring The Mandalorian for the most part, having a decent share of flaws, and the fact that she's the protagonist this time around, I'm worried this series won't do the character justice.

I'm cautiously optimistic about this one.

Honestly I've been very lukewarm towards every Star Wars show that's come out since 2020 and I think the magic is gone now. And putting my apathy towards new content of any kind aside, I'm genuinely afraid that Ahsoka's solo show might turn out to be a waste of time and I don't think I can endure that.
Unless this show is a genuine Star Wars masterpiece, Ahsoka's story concluded to me in Rebels season 2. That was one of the best things to come out of Disney Star Wars despite my mixed feelings towards the show as a whole

I can't blame you for that, tbh. I enjoyed Boba Fett, but I felt most of the villains were underused and that Boba himself didn't get enough screentime in favor of Mando later in the season. I liked Obi-Wan, but the writing for every villain that wasn't Darth Vader was underwhelming. and Andor was so slow early on that I just...couldn't get invested in it. Say what you will about the Mandalorian's 3rd season, it's the most consistently good live-action Star Wars show thus far.

I like Rebels overall, albeit I need to watch seasons 3 and 4, but Ahsoka's scenes as well as Rex's and Maul's are amongst my favorites in the entire show. After growing up watching and being invested in her character arc in The Clone Wars and being saddened by how it ended, as well as being uncertain if she'd ever even show up again, more so following Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm, I'm not ashamed to admit I outright screamed her name several times in hype once she showed up in the season 1 finale. of Rebels back when it first premiered. Her return to help the rebellion was one of the coolest things I'd seen from Star Wars in years. I was already enjoying Rebels back then, but I was way more onboard with the show from that point on.

I usually avoid manga when watching a show without spoilers, but that sounds pretty promising. The first half was really good and sets the stage up for the rest of the story up really well it seems.

Trying to reorganize the placement in the house for my stuff, here's how It all looks right now:

Spoiler: Images

I think if I move some stuff from the desk of my bedroom to the shelves I can fit the Daily Bugle and the No Way Home LEGO set. Although I need to find a place for the Batmobile and the Nintendo Labo stuff (the latter is on the plastic bag on the crystal desk).

The movies will be easy to put, although first I wanna marathon them all before putting them in their place.

Thanks! I am really proud of said collection. I even have the rare unreleased Peter Pan figure, which is awesome.

Normally I don't do pings for this kind of stuff, but since I am quite proud of how It all turned out, and maybe people won't see this thinking It is just a reply to cashregister, I will do so as an exception.
