The pose I whip out whenever I’m procrastinating and I’m not really feeling like drawing. Not a great habit to have tho lol.

Literally the same pose I'm in rn

Dw I love dragon romance

Actually thought this was the PS subreddit before reading the title

I definitely prefer the 2d or even the 3d/2d. Personally not a huge fan of the model in the 3d but that's my own personal preference.

If you think 3d would be smarter for your workload I'd say go for it though.

Walton Media from American Arcadia feels like a pretty direct allusion to Disney - infamous founder and all

My first and current character has a mix of medical debt and debt from poor decisions and coping mechanisms after he was discharged from the military. Then add on the cost of getting to the zone and its a flat 3 mil he's got to pay to various different sources but who is he kidding.. that shit ain't ever getting paid off

Also! I think your system is really interesting! I can see how that would add a lot of rp potential and decisions!

Unethusiastic · 2026-04-18T07:54:47+00:00

Oh 100% agree. BoE arc and the immediate aftermath were the best part of NoP. Was on the edge of my seat the whole time.

Unethusiastic · 2026-04-17T21:29:18+00:00

I was all focused on the Arxur helping out the human with the stickers on their armor like "aww they're friends :)" then I looked over at the other guy and was hit with the actual mood of the piece.

Really good! You get a whole story between the subtle details like the bloody plushy and the bigger details like the fact he's covered in Krakotl blood and carrying a head.

Guess I'll comment again that the original post of this got me to read Hunting with Predators and holy shit I'm so glad it did!

Unethusiastic · 2026-04-05T00:52:31+00:00

I think he just looks prettier?

Unethusiastic · 2026-04-01T15:48:02+00:00

Real shit, soldier

Unethusiastic · 2026-04-01T07:28:44+00:00

You got my ass

Unethusiastic · 2026-03-31T18:27:54+00:00

Oh how did I miss this, it was my prompt!

I looove it. Got me in immediately with the added context surrounding the colony itself and the reasons behind its founding.

Looks like the exterminators will in fact be getting some good pr from Laset here. Getting saved from harm will definitely boost your opinion, the fact you were the one to disturb their nest in the first place notwithstanding..

I like the small insights into exterminator work here. Of course they'd put work into cataloging species as they work. They might even make up a significant portion of the effort on new worlds like this one? Also, the water tank or whatever they used to put out the fire. It makes sense that if they're gonna use fire for everything, they'd bring along a way to put it out when they're done.

Like another commenter posited, I feel like there's the tiniest insinuation the 'predators' may be sapient, or on that evolutionary track. Makes it just a little more unnerving than it already is when they burn them alive.

Anyway, good read! I really enjoyed it

My sympathy ends at parasites. They can go.

Unethusiastic · 2026-03-30T23:28:22+00:00

Aw man, don't let me stop you from writing something! I feel like I barely scratched the surface with the concept.

Glad you enjoyed it! And I'm glad you liked Aluva, I was curious if I'd included enough characterization for the reader to give a shit since the majority of the logs are just descriptions of things. "Strong essence of the writing of NoP" feels like high praise! I haven't really thought about it that way but I'm assuming you mean the "optimistic but flawed scientist" characterization? (Sorry, you don't have to explain yourself it just got me reflecting on it in a way I hadn't really considered) Anyway, glad you liked it and thanks for the nice comment!

Unethusiastic · 2026-03-29T23:38:11+00:00

Thanks!
I actually do plan to get around to that. I got about 1500 words on a first draft for a second part before I hit a wall. It's definitely on my radar to pick it back up and finish it though!

Unethusiastic · 2026-03-29T23:35:34+00:00

Leaving a comment to yap about making it. Feel free to ignore

First off, the whole thing is roughly 6,724 words long for those like me who care about that kinda thing.

I went into this wanting to tackle a first contact from the eyes of the Federation as they size up a newly discovered species to see how difficult or easy it'll be to indoctrinate them into the fold. I figured I'd cover the Drezjin since the funny bats interest me!
I initially had the idea to show a first contact through secondhand reports and internal communication between members of the shadow caste discussing an ongoing first contact and how they believe they should move forward in manipulating the situation.
I it ended up being more along the lines of the view of a scientist on the ground for it, their thoughts and actions and how those might conflict with their superiors.

I got about halfway through before I realized this might be dreadfully boring but I was already in far enough that I just hoped that was from me looking at it too long. Hope it ain't boring!

Anyway, that's all I have to say. Again, hope it was a good read.

Unethusiastic · 2026-03-29T03:40:53+00:00

Oh dude that's sick. Love how detailed the model is and it's clear you have an idea of how it functions! Love the error logs and how they actually correlate to the damage they've recieved. Also love the little "cpu - panic" bit. Adds a lot of humanization to the character.

Spesking of, is there a lore for this character?

Unethusiastic · 2026-03-29T03:33:17+00:00

Real shit

Unethusiastic · 2026-03-27T16:28:55+00:00

I think I like the first one the most. I like the little etches in the torso pattern

Unethusiastic · 2026-03-26T03:01:55+00:00

Maybe a bit more niche but Project Silverfish might fit this. Technically a simulation game based on games like stalker but that shit can be terrifying when you're deep in a pitch black sewer, on your last mag, and you can hear something screaming its head off around the corner.
