@Awoo shadow because I'm a shameless goth/emo girl lover.
Also pygmy because she's so smol and cute :3

@mushroom_soup I got the one for Cindy Lou Who and Max, now I just need this one to complete my collection.

@rasterman he's probably friendly

@picandor twitch's himbo era is nigh

@GR_art

@Mr_NutterButter the logical next question is how long before someone gets b& for loli

@GR_art I do like it! Very cute.

@xianc78 @Mr_NutterButter even better.

It reminds me of ENCOM from TRON

@Mr_NutterButter lol at least they finally just fucking accepted it xD I'm sure a lot of artists will appreciate it. I know Vinny has to dance around censorship sometimes too because he's been b& for showing tits in a game before.

@tomie that's what I thought immediately too tbh lol

listening to the secret of evermore soundtrack and it's kind of... underwhelming.

apparently it's by jeremy soule, and that explains it. i was expecting something more akin to the classic japanese composers and soule is decidedly western. it definitely sounds more like something you'd hear in fable or elder scrolls than a squaresoft RPG from the 90s.

i've never played secret of evermore but i'm assuming the game is a lot more atmospheric/ambient and the music probably compliments it.

@Awoo I'm a bit of a space romanticist, i mean it's part of my namesake after all xD so i did like just kind of going from planet to planet and chilling. i'd probably be down to just float around in space for the rest of my life if it was possible but, alas, i was born too early and with too many conditions that mean i won't be colonizing anywhere. i'd probably not even make it out of the atmosphere xD

@Awoo I actually liked the game more when it first released. My expectations were met exactly. Just fly around to planets and look at stuff. Would have been nice if there was more variety back then, but it was a good game to just relax to.

Now it's just a little too complicated for my liking. Lots of stuff you have to manage and way more things you can build/do that just sort of clutter things up a bit. I kind of feel that way with Minecraft too... whenever I play it I never touch anything that was made past like 2016 and I spend the entire time hollowing out cobblestone areas and building a massive fortress. Likewise, in NMS when I've gone back to play it, I just focus on flying from planet to planet and looking at stuff.

I appreciate Hello Games' dedication to the game, though. They've done a hell of a lot of work on it. I hope that whatever their next game is like they knock it out of the park.

I don't really believe in New Year's Resolutions but it's close enough to make one and implement it now I guess. I'm going to try my best to refrain from political posting in the future. The most you'll see from me are shitposts. I'm going to pin this to hold myself to it as well!

At the end of the day, if I know anything it's that I know nothing. Posting anything about my politics here is of little value beyond a few likes and boosts.

I'm not going to go into politics and I don't really want that to be my legacy. I want to make games that everyone can truly enjoy, that don't have any agendas, hidden or otherwise. I'd rather not be a highly controversial figure on that front. Essentially it's the equivalent of "I just want to grill." I want to be known more for the stuff I make instead of whatever weird political flavor anyone wants to pin on me, or that I inadvertently pin on myself.

A lot of this stuff also gets me pretty on edge and I misplace a lot of passion where I shouldn't. My mood disorder doesn't help with that either. At my core I'm honestly not a very hateful guy but I can get fired up and sometimes I say things I either don't mean or things that can get misconstrued (especially over the internet). I think the best way to improve for myself is to just refrain. Abstinence is best, or whatever.

I wanna' talk about games and game dev, music, that sort of shit instead. Part of why I've been thinking about this is just thinking back to the old internet before politics was really cared about at all and nobody even mentioned it because the internet was supposed to be an escape from real life, not something that would stress your real life out more. You go to a family reunion and hear your parents talk about political shit and you want to just go back to the net to talk to people about RuneScape and Zelda, you know? Back when the worst thing someone could do online was like, be annoying.

So yeah, anyway, no more politics for me. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year xD
