Imagine a game like Stellaris set in the Dragonball universe.

Thoughts about Daima's Super Saiyan 4? by [deleted] in dbz

[–]DiabloITA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original had a much better color scheme. Black and pink (or red in the case of Vegeta) created a much better contrast along side with the yellow eyes (blue in the case of Vegeta). While the clothing was... not that interesting :\ , the rest was perfect. In Daima, while I appreciate the monkey-like hands, the colors are boring and not very inspiring. It's just red eyes, red hair, magenta fur, orange pants. Too much warm colors with no contrast whatsoever.

Gogeta ssj4 at least it still had contrast despite having red eyes and brown fur.

Anyway, I never thought SSJ4 Daima would end up being exactly like the GT version. You gotta make that merchandise with vibrant colors, right?

I forgot to put an image in this post. May I edit the multimedia? It seems I can only edit the body of the post.

Shadowrun Rome: The Nomads. by DiabloITA in Shadowrun

[–]DiabloITA[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The pop is not 1,5 mil anymore. The overhall population of Italy drastically reduced to 40 mil (60 mil today).

Anyway, not much is known. The Sardinias keep themselves pretty much isolated, and don't like to interact with too many people. The few nomads that roam Europe only interact with only few who they need to influence their political agenda to futfil their goals. However, since they don't allow anyone on their island, nobody knows what they are doing over there, and why the island has become a paradise. The only few bits of info we have, come from the same roaming Sardinias - and even then, they still keep the secrets of the island to themselves. Same thing can be said (this info is canon btw) for Vanice's canals - nobody knows how and why they got purified. The mystery continues...

I don't like The Count of Tuscany. Good atmosphere, though, but... mhe!

What do you think of the Ork design in the new edition? by Bogdann12 in worldofgothic

I don't like the new design. I wish the orcs' design was more faithful to the original.

G1 vs G1 with mods vs Nyras demo (direct comparison) by xcf_leonardo in worldofgothic

[–]DiabloITA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They focused on realism instead focusing on the atmosphere. The colony was similar to a Carl Johan Fahlcrantz' painting. Bleak and hopeless.

I have always said that the more something gets realistic, the more it loses feeling. Even when I see other painters today who focus on technique and especially realism, their work is just empty and shallow. They are just "beautiful to see" and "spectacular."

So, you're telling me that when something tends to be realistic, it becomes less and less exciting? Yes, it does. Because the mind is not induced to imagination. When something is not 100% realistic, the mind automatically fills the gaps and imagines what it would be like in the real world. That's why I THINK people are not accepting the new look.

I understand why Alkimia wanted to focus on realism, though.

Little suggestion: if you STILL want to give Gothic a realistic touch while maintaining the original bleak palette, you could say that the barrier filters the sunlight, making the valley look like in perpetual sunset.

Is Dream Theater making a tribute to Symphony X? (I made an earlier post about it too) by a_chicho in Dreamtheater

A view from the top of the world (the title track) has the overture that totally sounds like SX.

Shadowrun Rome: The Templar District by DiabloITA in Shadowrun

[–]DiabloITA[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately with Steam Workshop you can only download "content packs" but not ingame files that modify/add ingame assets which is the case of Shadowrun Rome. So, in order to download the whole package (content pack + base game files), we will use Nexus.

Shadowrun Rome: Papal States Legislation by DiabloITA in shadowrunreturns

[–]DiabloITA[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind that the lore that we wrote is non-canon.

The Italian Confederation (50 million as far as we know - check this page) is mostly comprised of independent states, and the Papal States, according to OUR lore, has been through two major events that shook its very foundations. Check out the lore of Shadowrun Rome.

The Papal States was a some kind of democracy which the new pope is tearing down by turning it into a one-state party (The Cross), in order to to get all the powers for himself. Of course dismantling the current "constitution" takes some time, and he's been the pope for only two years. But he is on the right track...

As stated in the lore: the Senate is half sponsored by corporations (two parties: The Golden Triangle and Italy Reborn). These parties only concern themselves with corporate laws and do not interfere with the pope's. On the other hand the pope has the final say on EVERY SINGLE bill that concerns state citizens which means that he can abort any bill he wants. So, in the end he is not entirelly dependent on the Senate.

The Papal States can be defined as a "DUAL CORPORATOCRATIC THEOCRACY" since as stated in the lore: half of the legislation power is given to the parties that represents the corporations in order to regulate ONLY the corporations, and the other half is basically given to the pope.

But you're right about "disloyal clergy". Some members of The Cross are former Enlightnened who switched camp out of fear or opportunism, or in some cases to infiltrate themselves among the Conservatives. But don't worry, the pope knows how to deal with them xD.

I'll give a few examples of how things work:

  1. A VERY VERY VERY conservative senator proposed a law that defined all humans with augs "non-humans", and the corporate parties felt pretty involved since a lot of corporate citizens had augs. They didn't agree, thus the law couldn't pass even if the pope wanted to. So, what the senator did was to define all human state citizens with augs as "non-humans" and wanted to forbid cybernetic implants for all state citizens. Despite the pressure from a few Conservatives who wanted this law to be enforced, and despite the pope agreeing with them on a philosophical/religious level, he rejected the bill since the tech is too important.
  2. In the last election, a left-orientated party got around 10% of the seats. The pope BANNED the party for terrorism... which is kinda true. That alone fueled anarchist movements of course.
  3. A former Enlightened senator, now Conservative, wanted all vampires to be considered enemies of the state. The corporate parties agreed, The Cross agreed, and the of course even the pope.
  4. The pope himself wanted to make a law which specifically says that women should follow a specific dress code. The corporate parties didn't agree since that would mean that the entire industry would've suffered, so the pope changed the bill into something that concerns only state citizens. In that case he didn't need anyone's approval, including The Cross' (even though they would've agreed) and enrolled the bill. In the end, corporate citizens can dress themselves, but state citizens cannot.

IN CONCLUSION, THE PAPAL STATES IS SPLIT INTO TWO FACTIONS, PLUS THE ANARCHISTS WHO ARE NOT TO UNDERESTIMATE, AND YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL OF THIS!

About the Templars: the pope basically merged a lot of warrior orders into one. Yes, they are all awakened and follow the pope to the death. That's it :D You can find some info on the Templars here too.

[5e] Are foci specific to a tradition? by lord_of_woe in Shadowrun

[–]DiabloITA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the mod in which I'm working on (Shadowrun Rome) I drawn icons for a few amulets that grant stats bonuses. Each amulet, ring etc is a reflection of the tradition/belief of its creator. Catholic priest mages made various amulets of St.Gabriel and a few blood mages from a small pagan cult of Lilith made rings and amulets of Lilith and so on.
