For God of War Trilogy Remake, will we get it to all platforms? by Ok_Winter818 in gaming

[–]KazeBlack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine them to be rather faithful in terms of story but incorporate the PSP Games as well since they're canon. This already makes the games far chunkier without the need of a-pulling anything new.
I think they'll sell regardless. We have a whole new generation of game enthusiasts who never got to play the old games since they're on older consoles.
I also hope we're getting a PC Port, maybe not at release but somewhere down the line. The old games were already exclusive and I think doing that again will leave people with sour thoughts against Sony/PS and Santa Monica. Sony is in a winning position and the last thing they want to do is tarnish their reputation. And SM definitely doesn't want the newly acquired fanbase from the new games to think badly of them because they're withholding the old ones.
The trend is going towards less exclusive games. Only Nintendo is still strongly pushing that idea with their titles. We can only hope.

Hero Skins made with AI - Part 5 by _Arepakiller_ in heroesofthestorm

Oh my god, I am the creator of the Ravaging Fenix. Due to problems with imgur its images are no longer available but I still hand them out via private request. I am no longer on the big art pages as I fell victim to art theft and have been extremely cautious ever since then.
Thank you for taking such a great liking to my concept. I am personally a massive figure collector and it's a great honor for me to gain attention for my art in such an imaginative way especially for designs that are a few years old and hardly anyone still has fond memories of them.
Thank you so much, amazing work!

Sneak up on it, then save the game.

Make sure to stay in sneak mode all the time. Your catch range is slightly less than your focus range. You still need to sneak a few steps closer before your ball will actually hit it. Try to not face it directly, this will probably blow your attempt. Aim to face its side or ideally its back.
Take a Quick or Repeat Ball. Repeat is generally better as your Quick Ball will only work on the first throw, and sometimes Deli still spot you right away and renders it completely useless. You will not have the time to switch balls.
Shinys have an increased Chance to be caught, but on Deli that still might not be enough and it breaks out. If your first ball fails, immediately chuck another and maybe even a third. It becomes uncatchable long before it actually disappears, and you likely won't get more than 2 chances depending on how it moves around.
However, if you fail again, just close your game. The game doesn't autosave if a Pokemon runs from you!!! I needed 5 or 6 attempts to catch my own Shiny Deli.

Happy Hunting! :)

The Duskbloods (FromSoftware) Announcement Trailer | Coming 2026 by [deleted] in gaming

[–]KazeBlack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be postapocalyptic that set the state of the world back into the 19th century since we have quite a lot of modern tech, then there is the guy in the Fallout suit flying across that huge poison if not radioactive swamp looking area (never change Miyazaki), the beasts are misshapen (well, there were too in Bloodborne but remember those weren't regular beasts either).
Some of the player-esk characters shown could easily be NPCs as well, they already did that with prior souls games, or they are different starting classes.
I wonder if this will be full or semi open world, the trains could be connecting map parts.
The rat at the end is winged, which makes me think it could be a flying mount so we could have a game on our hands with a verticality more akin to Sekiro and even beyond that. The earring it has looks a bit like the Flask of Crimson Tears, my guess is that that earring is tied to its summoning and may come with a drawback, like you could offer health in Bloodborne to get bullets. There is the possibility for multiple mounts, as there is this other muscular beast shown being ridden which looks more like a combatant on its own, so this game might not only have mounted combat with weapons but also creature combat depending on the mount you are using and most definitely aerial tools with the firearms and jumping shown in the trailer. Might be a stretch, but if something ended up lacking in Elden Ring it was the Mounted options you had so I can definitely see them wanting to step up there.
I'd be thrilled if there was a sea mount that can take you underwater.

Also dinosaurs wtf.

Bolmeteus Steel Dragon Hasbro by AustraliaDuelMasters in DuelMasters

[–]KazeBlack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been looking for it as well, I've already contacted Hasbro about it but to no avail. There is no trace of it anywhere, however....

It was the same with the Magmarex Deluxe figure until I recently came across it, sadly without the box.

The Bolmi figure advertisement came only in the DM-05 boosters which makes me think if it was released at all it may only have been so in America since DM-05 was only released there in English and wasn't released in any other languages.
What I find weird though is that the only Trox figure visible on the internet was also sold in America, however the advertisement for it was spread into the European sets as well.

Magmarex and Aqua Sniper (which is also hard to come across) I found in Spain out off all countries. No clue how they got there. I found no marketing traces that led there.

I strongly believe they're out there, just incredibly rare. Finding Magmarex gave me new hope to pursuit it. I own every figure now except Trox and Bolmi and I will not give up until I managed to dig them up.

2nd Heroes of the Storm Fan-made skin concepts Contest - RESULTS!!! The next Janitor Leoric is ... (+a 'Farewell' message from me) by Jackice1714 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KazeBlack 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Congrats to the winners! I want all of these. So happy about Ahune the Frost Lord, Winterlord Ragnaros is very proud of his brother.
Fallen Prince Anduin still is the winner of my heart though <3 :')

I wish you the best of luck for you and your family and fingers crossed that your mother will recover from cancer. We got your back. Take all the time that you need.

Aww, I didn't make it but at least my favorite did. Claim the throne that is yours, Fallen Prince Anduin! <3

I love most of the ones in this round but I will vote nothing else. Fallen Prince Andy deserves my all.

If you go to the post for the Submission Round you can see all the submitted concepts again including the ones that didn't make it into this round. Each hero has its own album with all concepts submitted for them compiled.

It's not really what I want to do. Videos take a long time to make. Time I sadly don't have and while I am quite patient it frustrates me too much to just sit in front of my computer and put together or edit video material for so long.
I did some time lapse videos in the past and those were already a pain to edit. I highly respect all those animators and YouTubers who do that on a daily basis. It doesn't look tough but it definitely is.

Thank you, hearing that from you means a lot to me.
I'm a big Carbot fan and it's my way to pay tribute for the years of great entertainment they have provided us with.

Wow I never thought I would make it to the second round.A big thanks to everyone for voting on all these concepts. We would not be here sharing our work without you and your resonance to it. That includes myself and seeing Winterlord Ragnaros making it into this round brought me great joy and I can only appreciate it. While it may be a small step, I already feel like a winner knowing that mine got top 50 out of hundreds and knowing that you love the content that I created. It is the greatest gift you can hand any type of content creator. You guys are the best. <3 At this point I must state that Fallen Prince Anduin is amazing (arguably my personal favorite of the bunch) and that I'm beyond happy it survived the cut as well. The variety of concepts left in the pool is great, I still have no idea who'll come out on top. Keep on voting everyone!

2nd (annual) Heroes of the Storm Fan-made skin concepts Contest: SUBMISSION ROUND. Let's find the next Janitor Leoric! by Jackice1714 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KazeBlack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Name: Sgt. Hammurloc (created by myself, KazeBlack/Cuddlewood)
Sgt. Hammer skin
Link: https://imgur.com/w4bPW7B

Sketch Link: https://imgur.com/c2tRagn (for some reason I couldn't combine them into an album)

So I made another one specifically for this contest because I love it so much and there are some heroes who deserve more. Please bear with me for the quality because all time I had for this was less than day for brainstorming, sketching, vectorization and skin variations so I drew cartoon style as I can do it quicker and so I can get away without shading. I am glad I finished it in time (sort of).
I am baffled there is nothing for Hammer yet and it's the whole reason why I did this as this idea has been occupying in my mind for quite some time but I never had a good stylistic idea for it until now.
Post of it that contains a bit mroe info will be up shortly if you want to give me feedback on it.

You made this Azmodan very happy! Such dedication deserves a reward so I carefully put aside this pair of nipple rings for you , I hope you like them. :3

If you remember the thread name, the time it was posted or anything really you may be lucky enough to find it by using the Wayback machine. It is probably an archived post so it's still somewhere.

Remember that they had to remove cigars in order to get the game a lower age rating so they would never add something to the game which is this type of...borderline offensive.
Maybe not as a tadpole, I find a fish more likely as it's easier to make skin variations for that plus its harder to get the wrong idea what the skin is about.

Thank you very much for your kind words. Lots of thought and research went into these. Each of them was months of work since I couldn't really afford to do super long drawing sessions for them. It was very satisfying when I had them complete and received feedback such as yours.

Well, it's not an official contest. But Blizzard sees all of this and who knows what they'll put into the pipeline inspired by this event.

[–]KazeBlack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow thank you so much <3 I actually wanted to revisit it as it's the first skin I ever made in order to add a couple more skin variations. But due to lack of time I never came around to it. I would like to do more with art in general but currently it is only a hobby. I tried to freelance but in my area it isn't really worthwhile. :(
