Links to find me and shit

Lol I don’t know if there is a point to me doing this but since you never know when people might be watching, here’s some links to give me a follow/watch/etc (also, since I see everyone on my dash doing it):

DA: https://www.deviantart.com/gamesadict (yes it’s horribly abandoned, I’ll take care of it one day)

FA: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/gamesadict (abandoned too hue)

Twitter: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/gamesadict (never tweet either but eh)

I guess I can be reached on Steam too, but please send me a message here to know who you are. If you can’t it will take a bit for me to accept friend requests, I’ll make comments public there just in case but I’m 100% deleting trash. https://steamcommunity.com/id/gamesadict/

There’d be more but I use nothing else, just empty unused accounts.

Completely unrelated to anything that has ever been shared on this blog, but it’s important

This is some Joseph Goebbels level of destroy your enemy shit right here, but it explains why discussions have completely gone down the drain these past years like never before. Right wingers just don’t want honest discussions anymore, and that’s something I’ve witnessed in real time the last 2 years.

Whether Karl Rove really is the author has apparently been disputed, but these directions are something I have seen being used a lot, and most likely many others here too.

This is basically “Arguing in bad faith: the ultimate guide”. 

Because when you know you’ll NEVER win, you can just waste the other side’s time instead.

I need to say something short about a couple of MLP Movie GIFs, after the link just in case people don’t want spoilers or anything.

This first one is what I always imagined an opening to the movie would be, including the inside roll (I’m so happy there is a scene like that, It looks so good to boot ayufvabfuhavfbuabhsv), except I only put Rainbow Dash in there. Makes sense it is this way in the end, becase that would put way too much focus on RD alone. Whether it really is the opening to the movie I don’t know, of course, but I keep telling myself it is. 

This one was my “mandatory ultra-colorful Sonic Rainboom in a dark cloudy scene” in my mind.

With that out of the way, the animation can be fucking crazy good sometimes, it’s simply mind blowing after years of (still crazy good) Flash animation.

Also, conflicted on whether to watch the “Making of” video or not, looks to me like it’s revealing a ton of stuff.

Backers’ Beta NDA lifted

​Hi again, everyone.

As promised, today’s update marks the end of the NDA period of the TFH Backers’ Beta. Builds released September 15, 2017 and after (all the way until the Game’s release candidate hits) are able to be freely streamed, recorded, screen-captured and played at conventions/tournaments/ events by crowdfund backers using their Steam accounts. You guys can also review the game if you want, but please keep in mind that the current state does not entirely reflect the final product, so please put in a disclaimer that reviews are of an unfinished beta build.

Builds previous to September 15 are still subject to the Non-Disclosure Agreement & End User License Agreement that you guys agreed to when first opening the game, so footage from said builds shouldn’t be streamed, screencaped, published or otherwise shared with the general public, unless done so with the formal consent of Mane6, in specific ways and media as set in a written agreement. (i.e. Ask first. We’re likely to deny most requests unless for very specific purposes, though.)

From here on, we start on what scientists call “the final crunch”, quickly iterating game versions, adding missing frames/animations, unlocking options/features, tweaking the final bits of balance (e.g. arcade mode), and giving an all-around polish pass. Critical & major issues have been mostly defeated (knock on wood), and thus we can move on to the lower priority stuff and the shredding of cardboard.

Your feebdack at this point is very important. What you like, what you think’s a bit over or undertuned, what feels a bit awkward, and any oddities you notice. All of it, let us have it on the forums, so we can finetune things all around.

1.0 release, as also mentioned previously, should be happening before 2018, Specific Release Date TBA. It will include at the very least, feature wise:

All 6 starting characters fully done, voiced, animated and playable.

Local and Online (Lobby room based) Multiplayer VS

Arcade Mode

Combo Trials

Target Practice

Survival mode

Training Room

Arizona’s and Velvet’s Pixel Lobby stages.

The first Pixel Lobby dungeon fully implemented (“The Salt Mines”, in Arizona’s Pixel Lobby stage)

The first episode of the TFH Story Mode, introducing the world of Foenum and featuring Arizona’s start in the quest to save Foenum from the Predators.

We hope you like what you see, and once again thank you for sticking with us.

<3 - M6​

EDIT: wow, just as I reblogged this the game updated on Steam. That was funny.

Yes... Yes! NES Mini really coming back and SNES available well into next year. Finally things are looking good.

[gamesadict]

I just beat this guy’s ME:Catalyst time trial. I have seen much more amazing and harder runs out there but I’m proud of this one. Guy made some small mistakes through his run that I exploited to push him off the top.

Shaved over 2 seconds off his time. Also, screw corner wallruns, I had to spend a while trying to get it to work.

PS: Origin Access is awesome.

[gamesadict]

For posterity, this is what the eclipse looked like at its peak, from Colombia. Taken with my shitty Nexus 4 and zoomed in.

It feels so weird to do a google search of “age of empires 2 farms” to try to find a reference of what they looked like in the original game, only to get results of screenshots and videos with the not-100-percent-accurate farms I made before it released on Steam and which got pushed into the official build of the game some months later. 

I made people happy with those and got my name put in the Special Thanks section of the credits, meaning my name is in one of my favorite games in my life, but I will never be “really” happy because I know that’s not 100% what the farms looked like, and everyone gets to see those now anyway, and it’s kinda my “fault”.

Small rant/thoughts.

Edit: but then I see the HD farms originally included in that game and holy crap are those ugly as sin. That was a bullet dodged.

[gamesadict]

Fuck me, that is one huge CPU. The crowd was laughing at the size, but fuck me if that shit doesn’t look powerful. Ryzen ended up being good for AMD, that’s good.

[gamesadict]

No better ending to a philosophical puzzle such as The Talos Principle than...

having your epitaph permanently headed by a pic of Judy Hopps looking at the camera along with some text telling everyone to ‘eat it!’ while the scene goes out in some absolutely amazing music.

gamecrasherinhiding replied to your post “I wanna draw some cute and/or sexy Bun (not nsfw for now), any…”

Laying in bed, motioning the viewer over. Seductive look.

[gamesadict]

Damn, I’ve missed out on a lot of that for not checking Tumblr as often lately.

Nice.

[gamesadict]

I suppose I could put this one here because it’s just borderline.

I took longer doing small edits than doing the goddamn lineart that I was well happy with at the beginning. Was intending to draw a background, but eh, can’t be bothered anymore.

You can find the full size version at my FA:  http://www.furaffinity.net/full/21653985/

If you got suggestions and such, either here or the FA comments.

Maybe I’m just tired, but I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore, pic above came out in just 2 minutes, as a quick re-sketch of the face in the drawing below.

which I have been working on for longer. Problem is the first pic looks like- *draws strips on the face* -fucking Jack Savage, when I was supposed to draw Judy (and yes she is naked and yes it’s actually a full body shot, I cropped it lol). And then I realize I could just start over and try again for possibly better results.

This is why I never post anything lol

`suppose I might as well just start posting any sketches I come up with. But that will wait til tomorrow later today it’s 4am jesus fuck.

[gamesadict]

Oh what the FFFFSJLBFHKB SCK

Shouldn’t have gone to derpibooru at this time, what a way to spoil the MLP season finale when I haven’t even seen the latest episodes yet.
