Hi. I post about Andor now.

I love Karn’s coat here. It looks so… try-hardy. It’s well tailored, because of course it is, but it looks cheap. The color and material look sub H&M level. There’s no texture, no character. It looks like he got it off a dropshipper. Which I think fits very well with the character: he wants to look impressive and fit into the Imperial Dream, but he doesn’t quite get it.

The Nunnery

Hastily put together tumblr for liveblogging Misericorde vol 2. Will contain NSFW content. I am she/her and more than old enough.

Hello friends! My new thing is hyperfixating on Misericorde vols. 1 and 2.

I recommend everyone should read Misiericorde vol 1. I recommend only the coolest people read volume 2.

Cohost is good (for now)

Wow, I picked a really bad time to return to Tumblr, huh

Well, I'm probably gonna be hanging out at https://cohost.org/hectara if you wanna follow me there! (although if a commercial site like Tumblr can't make it I'm not sure cohost can either, but that's not here nor there)

Hi folks

Hey, sorry for being gone for, oh, half a decade. I went to Twitter until, well, you know. And then I went to Cohost, which is cool, but maybe a little *too* cool, and sometimes you wanna be a bit vulnerable, you know? So I may or may not be posting here in the near future, I've got a few ideas bouncing around in my head that I want to get out there.

The Tower in the Distance

I think the original Castlevania was a masterpiece of early environmental design. In this video, I discuss some of the reasons why. I have plans to create a video about the classic driving game OutRun next month, too, so if you like this video, consider subscribing to my YouTube channel. Thanks!

There was a post on Did You Know Gaming a while back about how Dracula X borrowed directly from Miyazaki’s first film, The Castle of Cagliostro. I’d argue the Castlevania series has been doing so since the beginning.

Tons of video game voice actors have gone on STRIKE

And stunt and motion capture actors too.

So, I won’t be picking up Andromeda until I hear this has resolved in favor of the guild.

“Triple A video games often generate more revenue than blockbuster movies, yet these video game actors aren’t demanding millions of dollars per film - they just want their contracts to be fair.”

voice actors can’t change their established contracts so i look forward to playing space-faring kiss boy 4 on day 1

[commandercullen]

It’s not about “not being able to play” up coming titles, such as ME Andromeda, it’s about showing support and solidarity for the voice actors and motion capture actors as they work towards a system which would provide more fair contracts for future work.

If WE as a gaming community, the people who are providing these companies with their revenue, were to say(and fucking DO), “we will not buy another game from you until you negotiate fairly with the actors,” it would be a huge wake up call to these publishers.

Everyone rolls their eyes when actors ask for contract negotiations, but this is their profession. It cannot be done professionally by just anybody. Actors deserve to be fairly compensated for their work.

good for them!

Steve Blum sums up the issues quite eloquently. I fully support them and hope they can get what they want.

Please read the union’s flyer (PDF) and FAQ on why they’re calling for a strike. It’s not just money, but personal health and safety that’s at risk. The conditions in which some voice actors are being asked to work is unconscionable, to the point where the union has requested an investigation by Cal/OSHA, the state workplace safety office. If you care about video games, and the people who make them come alive, you should be aware of why they’re striking.
