New REBLOG Game

Just fucking lie about the previous poster

again. Understand boundaries.

I hate how I have to actually tell people that.

// Small PSA! //

// Hey! Sorry, small PSA here. I do things for a reason when it comes to the story. If I prevent something from happening, it probably has a reason. I really hope you understand, and if you don't, then that's fine, but you really won't like this blog if that's the case, cause I do plan on more moments where aspects are supposed to be unknown to the characters but seen by the viewers. //

// I apologize if I sound rude in my reply, but the asks I had gotten were deleted before I decided to full on respond. //

it's beautiful

I have nostalgia over Rayman 3. Could you put Sayori somewhere in this place here?

Sometimes the whole point of fan works is to deviate a little bit from the source material and do things you wouldn't normally be able to do.

That's kinda why Soul Prequels worked especially Undertale yellow.

Something that confuses me is when someone in a fandom complains about characters or aspects in fan-works not being "canonically accurate".

This post is directly caused by someone that was in the Undertale Soul Prequel fandom, of whom I shall not name.

Whenever a prequel did even the smallest thing inaccurate to Undertale, he'd whine and complain and if you dare delete his unwanted comments or don't listen to him, you're suddenly silencing him?

This is common in...MANY fandom spaces actually.

For example: In the Dandy's World fandom, there are people who'll hate you...just for trying to expand Shrimpo's character and personality.

Remember...you are not looking at canon material in a fandom. You are looking at fan works. Stop trying to be a fandom puritan, you're just getting annoying.

Hell yeah! :3

Live viewing of the GPUs of AI bros computers

Yes. I'm not kidding. The OpenAI server GPUs have MELTED thanks to usage.

I think it extended to the brain.

To AI Supporters: If you're gonna try and argue your wrong point of view, don't use strawmen!

I was reading a threat on r/mildlyinfuriating (the comments make me laugh sometimes) and I came across this

All context, the og commenter said "AI will solve this, no longer will we have to wait" and first of all wrong as fuck, second of all, as the argument continued, it lead to the top image.

...I love researching this shit and loving KNOWING shit. What Kaztiell used in their bottom reply is a strawman argument.

This is when somebody argues someone views something...that they never said, or they bring up something that the argument didn't include from the start. Almost as if they were arguing with...a straw man. It can also be imagined as the phrase "talking to a brick wall" or "old man yelling at the clouds".

For example, let's rephrase the bit above:

"AI should be used as a tool and should not be replacing people."

"So you don't care for the mailmen that lost jobs due to email?"

GravityVsTheFandoms never said that!

This isn't even true, while it may have caused some job loss, it never posed as much a threat as generative ai does when it comes to replacing humans. Mailmen still need to be there for packages and many other factors.

If you're gonna debate your (very wrong) viewpoint on Ai...please don't use strawmen <3!

...

Also this isn't a space to debate it! Thank youuuu!~

This sounds like something @wizardex-yt would make lol

It has been...idk months since I made this confession but I need to bring something up.

Guilty Gear Strive has an anime now

From the clips I've seen of the show, it appears to be using a similar style to the game it's based on.

Miraculous has no excuses. This is a real thing now.

Also no spoilers pls I need to actually watch the show

TW: VIDEO LINKS PUT LATER IN THE POST CONTAIN IMAGERY OF SUICIDE AND LOUD SOUNDS! THIS POST CAN BE UNDERSTOOD WITHOUT THEM.

((Post submitted, yet again, by my friend @tanookireviews!))

Transcript: Heya! Tanooki here once again to give you a ted talk and critique the style of Miraculous once again! This time, it's in regards to its animation and how I feel about it.

To put it simply...the animation could be a whole lot better in my opinion. Why is that?

Miraculous's animation tries to hard to combine both 3D and 2D together. Combining those styles is not a problem! In fact, in certain circumstances, it can look amazing when put in the right hands!

Miraculous was never given that treatment.

First and most obvious point here, what the actual fuck are those facial expressions? No really what are they? I'm all for really weird facial expressions but...I dunno. They didn't think the facial expressions through at all.

It's obvious that the facial expressions were made for a more 2D look and from the looks of it, they weren't translated over well. The models do not line up with what they're trying to do. They slapped on the face and called it a day

Another point I have to make is that there are a lot of animation errors. I understand that animation errors are inevitable as we are all human and we all make mistakes...but...

Why are there so goddamn many!?

These are the 4 examples I have. While they're not much, there's a clear thing going on. There's either

Parts of their design completely gone (e.g. eyebrows)

Parts of their design they did not have (e.g. the green bangs)

Parts of their design changed slightly (e.g. hair and eyes)

There's so many of these mistakes here. I don't even know why. Was their animation software bugging out? Were they short for time or budget? Or were they lazy and cutting corners?

I'm not entirely sure...but these bits here prove that this show was better in 2D...

Which brings me to this...Ladybug PV. The early pilot of Miraculous Ladybug that had surfaced online not long ago!

There are expressions that while exaggerated look much better here. Characters designs look so much more interesting and there's a general sense of polish and detail put into this.

So why wasn't this used? Budgeting and keeping track of Ladybug's spots...

Those are some of the worst excuses I've ever heard. You can have 2D animation on low budgets and I can prove it.

I can definitely prove it.

Ladies and gentlemen. Persona 3. A game released in the year of 2006. This game was created by Atlus, around the time they were on the verge of bankruptcy.

I understand that the animation isn't perfect. Some parts are off-model and there's a general lack of shading in some areas however the rest of the animation looks amazing in terms of expressions, tone and designs throughout.

There's clearly a lot of work put into the animation despite everything happening. It goes to show that even on the tightest of budgets, you can give it your all and make something really good out of it.

However, those days are long gone and miraculous went the way of 3D. However, I've come prepared and now have 3 examples of games that combine both 2D and 3D.

Let's begin with

1. Klonoa 2 Lunetea's Veil

Klonoa 2 Lunetea's Veil's character expression, designs and look fit perfectly with the vibe of the game.

Facial expressions are sometimes goofy looking however they fit with the style of the game while also being funny. Even some of the more serious ones look good too!

The game uses a technique called 'cel-shading' or 'toon-shading' if you prefer to call it that. This makes the characters pop a bit more and separates them from background elements that could interfere with their designs.

It also looks good from a 2D/3D mix as well as the style gives off an anime/cartoon style look that helps make the game look a lot better.

This was in 2001 btw.

2. Persona 5/Persona 5 Royal

Persona 5 is an artistically beautiful game along with having a great story all about rebellion and fighting back against societal issues.

Like Klonoa 2, this game also uses cel shading and very much leans into the anime-like style it wants to go for while combining it with the vibes of manga and comic books.

The style not only works but looks beautiful no matter what system the game is played on (even the switch). It also incorporates 2D elements such as character sprites for expressions and other elements to help balance it out just a bit more and make things clearer to the player.

3. Guilty Gear Strive

Oh Guilty Gear Strive...not only are you a brilliant fighting game that has one of the best trans reps ever...but you also have excellent animation and designs.

Like holy shit any screenshots from Guilty Gear Strive looks brilliant and that's because while the characters are rendered in 3D, it does clever tricks with the camera to try and hide that fact and make it look 2D.

It also like the other 2 games uses cel-shading to add even more of a 2D anime vibe to it all. It just works so well because the animators know what the hell they're doing. It's also getting a show soon so that's even more of a testament (get it? Lol) to how good the game actually looks.

So overall, Ladybug's animation is not the worst but could be better.

Thanks once again for coming to my ted talk.

Introduction

I guess I need to explain myself.

I am Andrew. I am 15 years old, and am a big fan of lost media. Exploring and searching mysteries has always been something I've loved.

I even made an entire subreddit for such content, while also including the ability for people to ask about media they can't fully remember to see if it's still available somewhere.

Recently, a post on there got some heavy traction.

The user (who's going to remain unknown here) has asked about a show named "Look, it's LETO!" that they saw when they were younger, and I decided to try to look into it.

There was a very small amount of results, the announcement of the show and the studio it was made at.

So, I decided to look for the location, which was relatively nearby my house. It was a small studio, where the production was seemingly given to another bigger studio at some point?

It was abandoned so, I did something I sorta regret? I broke in. I looked around and found a box. It contained a lot of content, including this...flash drive.

With this ask blog, I'm here to investigate and get ideas on this show.

Will you join me?
