These are, quite possibly, some of the worst takes Iโve ever seen.
Good pixel art takes as much effort and time as good CGI video games
Look at shovel knight, the amount of detail on each character needs to be consistent in each frame for every action, running, jumping, attacking, being hit, idle animations, animations for doing hidden actions that might happen only once.
And then you multiply that by the 50 or so enemies, variants, environmental hazards, bosses, bosses that have multiple phases, and the level design
Then there’s as much effort in a pixel art Game that shows as much detail and fluid motion as possible as there is a top of the line triple AAA CGI games, even better in some cases.
the-emerald-guard asked:
if you liked the "post apocalytic world seen through the lense of indie magic white haired child adoption simulator" like ender lilies, can I reccomend eastward?
the pixel art is very very pretty
fire-bay answered:

I’m just too swamped with studies to properly play it but it’s on my list!
Potions in this setting are sentient, feel pain and scream
Potions in this setting have a gender identity
Potions in this setting spend their lives sitting on shelves or at the bottom of somebody’s bag, with nothing to do put ponder the nature of life and existence. In time, they are inevitably overtaken by a deep existential dread.
Potions in this setting are the BBEG, spontaneously forming a hivemind and turning into Potion-Oozes, whilst in your bags (a fact players discover after falling asleep in their tents).
Potions in this setting are 75% alcohol
Potions in this setting aren’t really magic, just science that nobody understands yet
Police caught lying again: a thread
So Portland Police claim that protesters have used Molotov cocktails and have weapons.
But if you looked a bit further in this or just looked past the headline, you can tell that the rifle stocks have paint on them and the cocktail towels are orange. Strange.
So if you donโt know, protesters in Portland are using balloons with paint in them as a way to disorient police.
The mags in the photo that the police claim belong to protesters are Magpul PMAG which are used in M-4s.
Which happen to be compatible with a variant of M4 rifles that are sold to law enforcement with atleast 30 PMAG for each rifle.
And guess who just bought a fuck ton of these rifles?
Our favorite national gestappos, ICE and DHS. Strange that a lot of those investments in accessories show up in that picture posted by Portland Police.
And the orange tinged rags in the supposed Molotovs? Those were used to clean the gun stocks in the photo.
The police staged a photo with their own paint plastered gunstocks after futilily trying to remove the paint and used their own rags for the cocktails.
You can see them holding those exact rifles and covered with that exact shade of paint.
Gnome’s back and he’s got more of his bottles and potions to show off!
First off, a luck potion that’s not unlike playing a bit of Russian Roulette. See, you drink it down, inevitably swallow one of the D20s inside. Then you cough it up and whatever number comes up determines your outcome. Nine or lower, you’re gonna have a bad day. Might stub your toe, might make a lifelong enemy. Ten or higher, and things are comin’ up Milhouse! Roll a 20, and your life will change forever - perhaps you’ll come into money, maybe you’ll catch the eye of that wealthy cheese magnate you’ve been lusting for, who knows.
Roll a 0 though… Wait, I thought D20s only went from 1-20! Well, it’s largely considered rolling a 0 when you fail to cough up the damn thing at all. It’s pretty big, and your airway is only so large…
The second offering is more about the bottle than its contents - see, it’s designed to never break, but always spill. For those situations where you cannot afford to lose the whole thing, but can still make do with just a drop left at the end of your journey. Pretty useful when you spend your days hanging out with a big ole orc like Gnome does.
Small tiefling girlfriend for size reference.
Her name is Sharkhul but she goes by Charcoal because it’s easier for people to pronounce. She’s a bugbear shadow monk who was part of the Dark Moon cult but is now trying to leave that life behind. She follows Sune now, makes jewelry and potions, and if you ask her nicely she’ll also sell you drugs. She’s trying to become a better person but murdering feels so good sometimes.
I like making up bugbear lore for some reason, so here you go: When a dark furred baby bugbear is orphaned, they’re given to the Dark Moon cult to be trained as a Strangler, which is a bugbear Murderer that has been granted powers by Shar. She’s named after Shar, the goddess of darkness and loss, and Grankhul, the bugbear god of stealth. Canon bugbear lore is really fun, I’d recommend reading their Volo’s section!
I just really wanted to try my hand at a detailed character sheet with a whole outfit and expressions, and it was tons of fun.
