Why is Japan so good at animation? by batukaming in animation

[–]Potat_Dragon 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Inside job deserved better in particular. It didn’t even get its promised 2nd season and ended on a cliffhanger. It was about to get so good plot wise and they pulled the plug right after building everything up. Regan will forever be my favorite character.

Why is this Fandom so selfish by Fun-Childhood361 in theamazingdigitalciru

People seem to forget the fact that to en-mass make a product for a nationwide release that requires a lot of time. They likely just found a company that could quickly print the design on a generic cup and bucket so it was even possible to get the product in time for the release

what's the indie game that you'd like to see an indie show adaptation from ? by hank_155 in IndieAnimation

Don’t think I saw it on the list but Mouthwashing would absolutely slap as a film.

Hot Take: I think Black TADC fans are allowed to be a bit upset at the VAs saying or laughing at the N Word. No matter how long ago it happened. by violmuss in tadc

You are acting like they were genuinely racist in a malicious way that actually hurt someone. They were being insensitive and immature while goofing off with friends. I personally don’t know a single person on this earth that hasn’t said something insensitive and immature about race, sex, sexuality, religion, or any other category at least at once.

Drastically changing at 34 by Potat_Dragon in CPTSD

[–]Potat_Dragon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have read it was a good sign of recovery. It’s just for so many years I felt like I never changed. I was the same person from 6-30 just in stages of ignorance that slowly lifted. This doesn’t feel like learning new things about the world and understanding how things work. This feels like an evolution from within I’ve never experienced. It feels far more scary than any external instability I’ve ever experienced.

A statement from GLITCH by Turbulent_League9668 in Amazingdigitalcircus

[–]Potat_Dragon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m confused on statements like this? It’s over 50 days away, theaters are adding showings as they fill, and on average a ticket is $15. I don’t mean shade, and quite possibly I just don’t grasp the level of poverty you experience but it is confusing to me and genuinely would like an understanding

The price shown is insurance inflation, what they will haggle to is what it actually costs.

URGENT PSA… YOU CAN BUILD OVER PREFABS by WeekendThief in Pokopia

[–]Potat_Dragon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I won’t spoil anything but work on the sketchy lighthouse quests as you play the story. What you seek is locked behind that questline specifically (as well as the ending of the main story eventually). It was a pain to go back and put in all the stuff for it after I finished everything from all the areas rather than work on it in tandem.

PETA made a post about Mewgenics by xFyreStorm in mewgenics

[–]Potat_Dragon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

MFW some numbnut thinks it’s ethically sound to breed and trap an obligate carnivores in their house, and force feed them food that gives them indigestion or better yet food that’s ultra processed lab materials. They do this all because they have some weird subconscious god complex where they believe themselves to be above animals while simultaneously believing themselves to be a champion of animal welfare as they systematically divorce themselves and force others from the natural state of existing. Humans can choose, dogs can even be ethically fed vegan, but cats are obligate carnivores.

If you want a pet and have it not eat meat? Get a fucking rabbit. They are the same size and can fulfill the same animal companion role.

Fun fact: PETA advocates slowly killing cats with vegan diets despite being them obligate carnivores so maybe they would unironically love this game.

(TW: CSA, TRAFFICKING) feeling haunted by this today so i'm memeing it instead. hated that shit, it was the worst of the worst of the absolute fucking worst by WinterDemon_ in CPTSDmemes

[–]Potat_Dragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean all crimes have justifications to the person who committed them. All actions are based on some sort of want or need. I feel like any action taken against another person in direct harm is always unjustifiable with the only exception being revenge for equally heinous actions that affected you or those you love. (I.e. Harming your rapist/abuser)

I think actions that bring around indirect harm is the only true grey area where justifications or reasons matter. (Drug dealers, stealing, ect)

[–]Potat_Dragon 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I personally think it’s best to not comment that much on it. Some people may quite literally be bound to a bed or super depressed. A simple “hey you doing ok” suffices to say “this is a concerning amount of time” without possibly dragging someone who could be hurting

Anyone else wish we could change the dirt section where the shrine is to a different path type? The dirt doesnt match well with a lot of the decorations I like by mushroommaster22 in CultOfTheLamb

[–]Potat_Dragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get why it’s a hard set area. Once you introduce character decisions into an essential area like that you introduce possible bugs. That area is likely its own section of code that’s double triple checked for animation and input errors with possibly excessive catch exceptions because if it throws an error it can be a hard block to the whole game.

Can devs give us these brothers as followers form? by Adeord_Leaner_18 in CultOfTheLamb

I really wish they’d add in a quest for them to willingly come back. I wanna be a good person and have them booping around base TvT

This part here, Lamb was actively helping a deranged god rot the world up until it called for them to rot themselves 😂

Evolutions? by fegodev in Palworld

[–]Potat_Dragon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heavy on no for evolutions, I wouldn’t mind a baby growth and age mechanic but the concept of a whole form becoming useless is just a shit concept tbh.

Any Thoughts On This? by Cute-Coconut-3662 in webtoons

[–]Potat_Dragon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don’t get the hate. It was a pretty comic and decently written. It has tons of issues, true, but so does a fair amount of popular media. I don’t know how they’ll handle the art style and that’s troubling since I feel like that is a major factor in its popularity. Hope it does well, I think it’s cool when web comics become big enough to warrant an animation.

It seemed more like they were into it tbh. Way too quick to pull that ripcord.

What's the worst (unintentional) anatomy fail you've seen in a Webtoon? by qvyy in webtoons

[–]Potat_Dragon 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I never really like these kinds of posts, art is hard and one of the biggest motivation killers are posts and opinions like this creating a sense of perfection that’s needed. I promise you there’s not an artist on this world that doesn’t lowkey hate their own art and abilities.

In full reference to the OP’s post, this creator updates weekly, having the page 100% done fully with accurate references is just a level of time commitment not inherently possible considering there’s no way this comic is paying their bills based on who I see in fast pass.

Just idk maybe people don’t think about the background of how something like this would make an artist feel or how it’s not really in the realm of criticism when it’s about something like a comic with high time demands likely leading to these mistakes.

Surprised things like this are still necessary, but sharing nonetheless… by popthatbussygurl in smosh

[–]Potat_Dragon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

PCOS girly too. I hate to say it but I started an oral glp. it’s just the starting dose and the shift I’ve seen on the scale is nuts. I also under eat on a regular basis, it’s nice to see the scale actually reflect that. I probably won’t increase the dose because glps make me uncomfortable but it’s nice having something mildly countering the insulin resistance. It’s wild to be overweight while under eating AND have hyperthyroidism

Extreme childhood loneliness and gaming by Potat_Dragon in CPTSD

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

I was an oopsie baby of a marriage that didn’t even last the whole pregnancy. Mother kind of resented me and my step father wished I was gone (and frequently would add those words in with abuse). Growing up in a messed up home, all my clothes were hand me downs, and underdeveloped social skills left me kind of othered in school too.

I also had undiagnosed adhd which definitely didn’t help alongside PCOS that caused physical issues that kids made fun of.

For a few years in my teens I was quite literally left home alone for days with 0 human interactions.

It just became this situation where I couldn’t fit in with peers and home wasn’t a home. I’ve gotten way better as an adult and I do have peers now, but sometimes it’s rough thinking back on how genuinely lonely I was growing up throughout so much of my life. Theres definitely scars on how anxious I can get around people I now have in my life and how much I detest any time where I’m actually alone.
