⭐ Joe. Starry Neopet Enthusiast. I actually made like 30 accounts. Neofriend/Neomail me at Joe_Jawzz ⭐ “average person has 5 neopets accounts" factoid actualy just statistical error. average person has 0. Neopets Joe, who was really into the game as a 9 year old and has 10,000 accounts, is an outlier adn should not have been counted. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I drew this when I was trapped in a room for hours with my dogs during the 4th and running through nostalgia playlists to help block out the fireworks. Might not be as cool as showing off your tiger folder in 1st grade, but I'm still happy with it!
If someone tells you we had beef in high-school, they're lying. I had no beef. I was preoccupied. I'm talking bustin my ass, 12hr shift in the Snow Muncher mines trying to feed all these damn neopets like a single father of a whole werewolf litter
oh fuck a buzz got modeled for one of the ugly prerendered cutscenes??? it kind of looks like the reference the modeler had was This art specifically, if i'm being real
like... below is the later art for the buzz, and the lower eyelids + emphasis on the skin under the eyes makes me think they were looking at the upper artwork.
anyway. below the readmore is a list of neopet species ive seen in the game
Acara -Roberta clones, all of them have her scary face and lips. i cannot remember if Fauna's model has a different face model but i doubt it. seem to all be coded as women, so all townspeople or royals.
Aisha -presumably necessary because Jerdana is in the game- sidenote, they call Jerdana 'old woman'. she's supposed to be OLD??? also seem to all be coded as women, so all townspeople or royals
Draik -a bunch of random guards and townspeople are Draiks. i THINK they're all intended to be seen as male, although there's an illustration from the TCG in a book that shows one with eyelashes, so who knows!
Lupe -mostly Tormund clones, though his mom, dad, sister, and King Altador have unique models. can be knights, royals and townspeople.
Gelert -they seem to be different models from Seradar and the Assassin, and maybe different models for the townspeople/royals? not sure if they're identical to Seradar but without the mustache and outfit or not)
Grarrl -presumably because Torakor is in the game; there are various townspeople and guards. i THINK all the Grarrls have the same face, and they also all seem to have little spikes on the back of their heads. its a good look honestly, Grarrls have such a simple design that i feel like they could use a little spicing up)
Kacheek -presumably because Florin is in the game, various random townspeople also have kacheek models. i don't remember any kacheek knights (except for a TCG illustration in a book) even though these seem to be coded as male. most Kacheeks seem to be townspeople
Kau -was genuinely surprised to see Kaus in this game. they seem to all be coded female, although some have horns and some don't. neat! all seem to be townspeople or royals.
Meerca -seemingly just because they wanted to have Heermeedjet and Meerouladen in the game? but to my shock there was a completely neutral shopkeeper NPC meerca in Faerieland, after a dearth of other meercas, so that was interesting)
Techo (presumably because Kelland is in the game, though he has a unique model)
Scorchio - knights, townspeople, and royals.
Skeith -seem to get multiple models, including unique ones for Skarl and presumably Hagan when he shows up? not sure if Gordos will be appearing)
species Sort of represented (it is very possible i'm forgetting some, also i only just got to brightvale):
Buzz -just in this cutscene so far. not wearing clothes like other Neopets and dialogue is strangled screeching, so while i assume this is a sapient neopet who is being Assassinated, i'm not actually sure)
Ixi -seems to just be the Ixi Raiders, who are centaurs for some reason, and also stereotypical 'violent native' stand-ins. not great. also i cheated and looked at jn's book of ages, so now i know that Sophie the Swamp Witch is also making an appearance in this game, so there is at least One non-taur Ixi npc
Lenny -Lenny architects were mentioned in a book in Meridell castle. no Lennies have been depicted afaik
Quiggle -there are Quiggle statues in the neverending staircase- these do not have clothing, so idk what this means
Uni -he should probably be in the first category, because Solarin the Uni, a character i previously only knew from a TCG card, IS in this game as a named character. but he has zero dialogue and seems like he might just be a horse??? Like. I don't know if he's sapient. VERY weird. so now i'm like. ??? about species that aren't shown wearing clothes.
Usul -okay this is a stretch but the straw training dummies kind of look like usuls. it might be intentional
Wocky -there was a picture in a book of a Wocky wizard. also maybe some of those bandits with pointy cat ears are supposed to be wockies, i'm honestly not sure. the model makes it look like they have fleshy noses, but the art that the models were presumably based on depicts them with masks pulled over their noses. who knows!
okay and because i cheated and looked on jn's book of ages, i now know that apparently Marak (peophin), Psellia (faerie), Sasha (cybunny), and Siyana (faerie) do not make it into this game. i wonder if they'll appear as statues, if the hall of heroes isn't in the game, or if it IS there but they'll be missing because they didn't model them. i wonder why they modeled Kaus for the game instead of like. Cybunnies. interesting!
