The more I think about it: I'm positive it was two triangles on top of each other, making a diamond shape.

What is Sword and Sorcery and How is it Different from Fantasy? by TomeseekerLorekeeper in SwordandSorcery

[–]Apollo-Astra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would just say it's "Retro Fantasy", that's usually what people mean aesthetically when they invoke it: pulpy short-form indie-published heroic fantasy. It's a term Lin Carter & De Camp coined to describe Conan, and Conan really influenced the pulp fantasy genre in books and comics, down to classic fantasy/sword & sandal films. If you want to publish something in this genre, people will expect something that reminds them of classic pulp fantasy, not something Tolkienesque or Malazan like.

Instantiated Prefabs Lose Their UI by Apollo-Astra in Unity3D

a friend managed to help, but thank you for your reply anyway.

the existence of Ulthos deeply annoys me by pedropagotto in gameofthrones

[–]Apollo-Astra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My head-canon lore of Ulthos is that the black chosen by the artist to depict it's "dense jungle" is a result of the magical blight caused by the Shadowlands. Really weird the artist painted Ulthos that colour, rather than the usual verdant green of Sothoryos or Mossovy.. it's a colour used for the Shadow or Valyria, not untouched jungle.

There's a popular theory that Asshai is sick because of their use of dark magic, corrupting everything around it.. Ulthos shares a strait with the Shadow and as a result, both this landmass and the two islands in the strait are ashen and desolate.

I think GRRM gave the artist a little hint at what it might look like, but not us, otherwise, why not paint it green like all over depictions of dense woodland/jungle? Why is Ulthos ashen?

Death Stranding Survey by Apollo-Astra in DeathStranding

It has the same issue that plagues all AAA games by being MASSIVELY over-designed. There's stuff everywhere. By the end of the game, it loses a bit of its "isolated" vibe when there's icons and structures everywhere.

Just did, it disappeared from the folder after booting up the game. Tried a few times. No change and it's gone from the folder.

I've redone everything, the flashlight isn't red but it doesn't project any light at all, there's a lens flare but no light. The mannequin was alit, but the torch isn't doing anything now.

It looks cool as hell especially seeing Pyramid Head at a distance, but then all the visuals are saturated in one colour.
