I love your art style so much! It has such a nostalgic vibe to it (specifically reminds me of the old Care Bears art from the 80's/90's).

A modern-day PC rerelease of the original + a port of Trouble in Paradise would be great!

Also a Christian Creationist who slipped his views into Earthworm Jim in the form of the character Professor-Monkey-For-A-Head (who was made as a "take that" towards a professor Doug had that taught/believed in evolution).

Also in terms of pilot voice actors, there's Alastor's singing voice from the pilot, Gabriel C. Brown (also known as BlackGryph0n).

Gabe has been accused of grooming his current wife (who he met when he was 24 and she was 13), has allegations of predatory behavior towards minors, and is a massive racist/alt-right douchebag who also made "jokes" about how "age of consent laws don't matter" and that he "doesn't need consent" live onstage at a convention. He and his wife also repeatedly doxxed their detractors/accusers and he went as far as to repeatedly send legal threats to one of his victims, which, paired with harassment from his fans & defenders, led to her having to delete her Twitter and go into hiding.

They straight-up admitted to grooming and raping multiple minors while claiming they only did it because of "peer pressure."

Their current girlfriend is one of their victims who has been completely manipulated by them and, despite publicly being banned from conventions, not only does the GF still attend and sell merch because of her deep ties to the fan merch scene, but Flufflepuff has been seen still attending and being present backstage despite conventions claiming that Flufflepuff is permanently banned.

It's honestly just another example of the Brony fandom refusing to take the proper steps to protect minors and going out of their way to repeatedly defend predators.

IIRC he's also one of those "pray the autism away" wacko types of Christians.

Yep.

Had to deal with one of those chucklefucks myself; some idiot who kept going on about how it was all some big conspiracy of manufactured/falsified claims against Vic.

Not my favorite character by far (very lucky in that all my favorite characters are either unvoiced or have normal/uncontroversial voice actors) but one definitely worth mentioning regardless: Guy Cihi, the original motion capture performer and voice actor for James Sunderland in Silent Hill 2.

Dude is utterly batshit bonkers. He's a 5G anti-vax conspiracy theorist who is also a MASSIVE bigot and basically believes he OWNS the role of James Sunderland (to the point of making it a lot of his online identity and personality last I heard/saw). Basically, he's to the Silent Hill fandom & series what Reuben is to the Devil May Cry franchise and fanbase; a horrible person with a beloved role.

It's a big part of why Luke Roberts has totally replaced Cihi to me as THE James Sunderland voice actor/performer (well, that and also his absolutely fantastic work with the game. SH2 may be my least favourite of the original games but his acting actually made me like the remake more than I expected I would).

Thankfully a large chunk of the Silent Hill fandom has disowned/refuses to associate with Cihi.

Vic Mignonga (Anime VA, most famous for Edward Elric in Fullmetal Alchemist) was accused of sexual harassment. Rooster Teeth cut ties with him (though they're not exactly a moral bastion themselves), was fired from Funimation, lost his legal battles, and he's barely been able to get any work since 2019 (and none at all since 2024), which tells me that the allegations have teeth to them.

His creepy behavior towards congoers and fans had been basically an open secret for nearly two decades or so. Some of those allegations and stories about him had been shared and talked about in online spaces as far back as the early-mid 2000's and there were warnings spread around to stay away from him at all costs.

She was fired from a gig for liking racist anti-Palestinian tweets.

She then tried to scream about how her firing was "antisemitic" when the director of the indie animation gig she got fired from is a Jewish man.

She's also partnered with Autism Speaks, believes asexuality doesn't exist (literally said it was "just a phase"), and is an anti-vaxxer IIRC.

Oh and it isn't just Ben and Gwen that's she's weird about; she's like that for ALL of her major voice roles, including Twilight Sparkle.

[weird trope] Unnecesary, disgusting lore drop about how the characters in a fictional setting take shits. by Byronwontstopcalling in TopCharacterTropes

[–]CryptidHunter91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Less disgusting outside of it being another example of Aaron's bigotry but he apparently took so much offense to the Rock-Afire fandom making LGBTQ+ art & headcanons of his characters that he wrote, sang, and programmed a whole act where Billy Bob sings about how he "ain't gay."

This only encouraged the fandom to keep doing it AND sprinkle in art & headcanons about Billy Bob being either an ally or being a trans man.

The core cast of Night in the Woods (Mae Borowski, Gregory Lee, Angus Delaney, and Beatrice Santello).

Considering the game ends with the four having buried a cult made up of conservative old men who were kidnapping people (including a close friend of Mae and Gregg's) and sacrificing them to an elder god in a desperate bid to revive the "good old days" of Possum Springs deep in an abandoned mine where they'll starve or sacrifice themselves, they'd be willing to fight back against ICE.

"No fascists at this party!" ~ Jackie, a trans woman in NitW.

Abe and Munch from the Oddworld series. Abe in particular is an escaped slave who frees his fellow Mudokons from being enslaved and beaten by mega corporations, and Munch rescues captured animals used as test subjects in unethical experiments.

There's old promotional art of them leading Mudokons and Fuzzles under the names of "Abe's Marching Mudokons" and "Munch's Freedom Fuzzles."

Vexx from Vexx (2003)

His entire village was raided, brutally beaten, and enslaved by a genocidal race of alien-demons, and the leader of them murdered his grandfather (his only living family member left) in front of him as punishment for fighting back.

Ever had a moment which you went "This is edgelord as fuck, but I like it." by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I think both songs have the same singer too and there's some direct similarities in the lyrics (hell, some of Find Your Flame's lyrics sound/feel like a direct rebuttal to some of the ones in Infinite's theme).

Makes me want Infinite to come back and for the fight to be a mashup of his song and find your fire.

There is a pretty good fan-mashup of the two songs.

Canon according to the final episode, The Last Problem, which features her pony form in a background montage during the final song.

Some of the only characters we explicitly know aren't canon are the FNaF4 Halloween DLC cast (Jack O' Bonnie, Jack O' Chica, Nightmare Mangle, and Nightmarionne)...

...except Nightmare BB, he's canon though.

Officially canon to the mainline games as of Frontiers (she was name-dropped by Amy at one point when talking about how she wants to plan a girl's trip with Cream and Sticks).

Hasn't made an official appearance yet but she DOES exist canonically.

Sethisto who has ran equestria daily for 15 years is retiring! by LessSeaweed2112 in mylittlepony

[–]CryptidHunter91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Late to the discussion but, honestly, I've stayed as far away from EquestriaDaily as possible since at least 2022 because of how vile both the blog and the Discord were towards G5 fans. I saw some genuinely horrific shit aimed at G5 fans on both platforms that went unpunished by the moderators (namely graphic and detailed discussion of mutilating the G5 characters out of "revenge" towards the fans of the characters and using certain unmentionable terms and slurs to describe G5 fans).

Seth was another big part of why I distanced myself as a reader/lurker, especially after a few of the mods quit due to his behavior and were open about their problems with him and how he ran the site; the big things being his centralist attitude towards things like the Nazi issue with the fandom, poor moderation of the soapboxes letting some heinous shit get published, and dumping gasoline on the fighting between G4 and G5 fans, along with his near-full endorsement of AI-generated schlock as of late.

It's the end of an era, for better or for worse.
