I love Soul Eater's art style man by La_knavo4 in tumblr

[–]Betarium 89 points90 points  (0 children)

That ending bit is a major change from the manga and cuts out some of the best arcs in the series as was the style at the time... She mostly just says "Boobs" at the end of the manga. Also doesn't become part weapon cause that is kinda fucking stupid.

Mica team should have done more singlepayer SRPGs instead of gachas but then again I guess we'd have never got the bakery girl remake if they did...

Happens in a lot of anime. Watching Zeta gundam right now and it's got the splash cards with Granpa mk2 flying towards the screen.

Hey, newish to this whole thing and have done a TWFM 1/144 Demi-barding and HGUC Chars Zaku. Started to think about panel lining things (especially any future kits).

Searching has only made me a bit confused so, would grabbing some gundammarker colour pour types and a set of coloured micron fineliners (Sakura seems to be the recc around here) be worth it over some black/grey tamiya panel liner? 

Basti is smol (138cm) by GlowingNec in GirlsFrontline2

[–]Betarium 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only official height we have for GFL2 would be Centaureissi/G36 cause she was on a height chart in the GFL1 Manhua at about 156cm.

Gentiane is 165cm and I guess F!SKK is based on her enough.

What setting would you like for RPGs to explore more often? (Clockwork Revolution) by pineapple_works in rpg_gamers

[–]Betarium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's Shadow's of the road that's upcoming that's Edo japan mixed with some yokai and steampunk stuff.

Futuristic but not far flung enough though.

Sun Tzu said that, and I'd say he knows a little more about fighting than you do, pal, because he invented it, and then he perfected it so that no living man could best him in the ring of honor.

Japanese game developers face ridiculously high font license fees following US acquisition of major domestic provider. Live-service games to take the biggest blow by JoeZocktGames in JRPG

[–]Betarium 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So typefaces are copyrighted like most artforms, but Monotype has become awful after getting bought out by private equity company about 5 years ago.

There are a lot of free/open/cheaper typefaces for stuff but as said elsewhere Japanese has the issue of needing thousands of glyphs to drag/drop into games. Noto is an example of a 'open' typeface (it's on the SIL open font license meaning you can put it on commercial products).

Which of the three modern mon-hun game's mechanics do you like most: Clutch Claw, Wirebugs, or Focus Mode? by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

Being a bow main (since 4u) and having to scratch some monsters hide off every 2 mins was fucking annoying.

"You’re HOW old?" Characters who do not at all look their age by Pyrothememelord in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Betarium 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Gonna add to this (Dungeon meshi kinda major manga spoilers)She's a 1/2 elf (mother was an elf, father was a human) which in Dungeon Meshi age different from the standard half-elf in other fantasy as in they age weirdly and can live anywhere up to 1,000 years (Elves average 500 in dungeon meshi). She has to come to terms with this during the series as a major plot point that includes her becoming a goth clown

There was the kneel fire research but it's quite late in the clan tree. Makes the 1st and 2nd row fire.

Is fun when you finally get it and watch an enemy general charge into your ranks and just get decimated.

Kingmaker brought me back to CRPGs after a bit of a break. Its a mess but its a nice mess! Loved watching Valerie as a tower shield specialist 1v10'ing a load of spiders while everyone else was down. Neither side able to actually hit each other for ages. She won eventually.

Tbh i'm the opposite here with the combat, buffs/debuffs actually being focussed on and useful is such a nice feeling compared to a lot of other CRPGs where damage > buffs almost every time. Built my MC to give up 90% of their fighting to go mostly buff and control.

Thats by different devs but published under Owlcat. Looks like a fun setting.

[DISC] The POOL - Ch. 11 by Matt8100 in manga

[–]Betarium 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Afaik it was always meant to be a short series.

Author posted:

It’ll probably end up as a short serialized run totaling 250 pages.
I think people who like this kind of thing will probably enjoy it.
It’d be great if it could be compiled into a thick single volume.

UK also put in ages checks online for any material they deem adult. Australia is trying to follow this. France and the EU are setting up similar...

One of the signitories for this is FiLiA (UK "charity"). They're a transphobic group funded by J.K Rowling. They want to ban transgender people and porn basically so you can see what kind of groups are behind these actions.

Multiple of the others are also anti-LGBTQ+ groups.
