An observation I made that happened to some games I've played:

This can lead to people losing interest in a game and Could cause the death of the game in a worst case scenario (only if the rest of the game is oversaturated and has problems as well).

REBLOG IF YOU AGREE AND LEAVE A COMMENT IF YOU KNOW A GAME THAT'S IN A SIMILAR SITUATION!

Examples I can give from my experience:

Brawl Stars (From real weapons to silly ones, less new rares and super rares and more epics/mythics/legendaries, overly complex brawlers, ultra legendary rarity)

Genshin Impact (Powercreep trend that started with Neuvillette, Natlan characters having overly complicated kits and being P2W because they feel mandatory for exploration, the land of dinosaurs having pixel holograms, Dj turntables and MOTORBIKES)

And I'm afraid Forsaken will suffer the same fate because of Veeronica and Guest666. I mean just look at them.

I hope you liked this illustration and I hope it got the message across...the only problem I have with it is that I've grown a bit attached to these bright colored fighter guys I came up with in a few minutes even though they're supposed to be the "bad ones"...

OH, AND REMEMBER!: Even if you agree that a videogame that wants to be successful should be more consistent and fair, you can't really apply the same thing to OCs and fanmade game characters!

A lot of oc artists (like me) don't actually work with game companies (I mean they don't at least to my knowledge), and passionate artists can come up with the wildest ideas, because they have no limits.

DON'T HARRASS ANY ARTIST THAT JUST WANTS TO HAVE FUN! Thank you!

(eyestrain warning for the last png/pattern, as it uses a pseudo-glitch effect)

6 patterns made in GIMP, 4 of them as PNGs, with stock images from pexels.com.

Thing is, when I got back into making stuff in GIMP, I noticed how it changed my perception of my surroundings; I now go through the world looking for inspiration or mulling over how people achieved certain effects in their art.

So it is not surprising I saw a pattern I really liked 'out in the wild' and my first thought was 'I wonder if I can create something like this in GIMP' - and yes, apparently I can. Which is awesome! So I made some mildly similar patterns.

I combined this with some effects and filters I was trying at the time, and the results were a few patterns I wanted to show/share. They should seemlessly repeat, so in theory one could use them for prints, blog backgrounds, wallpapers etc.

And ideas what other patterns I could make? Lemme know!

They've already filmed Avatar 3. It doesn't matter if Avatar 2 bombs at the box office, we're getting a third one sight unseen. Literally the only person who wanted Avatar sequels was James Cameron himself, and now we're stuck with them because it's a disney property and they will milk it for all it's worth; the first one was a gimmick, a novelty, a proof of concept released at a time when every movie was in 3D and it was a big deal (I haven't seen a 3D movie in like 10 years). It looked amazing for the time, but we've become so desensitized to CGI characters and environments that even the best most groundbreaking technology looks mundane. We're over the gimmick, we're used to it, so the only reason for these sequels to exist is obsolete. Nobody is gonna watch them for the story, it's all spectacle, but we've had nothing but spectacle for the last decade and we're like heroin addicts who don't even feel it anymore. We'll never get the same high as we got in 2009 because EVERY movie looks like that now. EVERY big budget studio movie is green screen mocap with digital deaging and face replacement body doubles, so Avatar 2 is nothing special. The gimmick this time is that it's underwater, which I guess is technologically impressive, but I don't see how it could possibly elevate a forgettable story; nobody will want to remember it, but disney will keep it in theaters for 6 or 7 months like they did with Spiderman so they can squeeze every last cent out of beleaguered moviegoers who have no other options because their local theaters have basically become disney playhouses. I will not be seeing Avatar 2, or 3, or 4, or 5, or 6, or any of the spinoffs, or streaming shows, or cartoons. This is not a property I wish to consume.

Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins, and the world. Credit to Buzz for the photographs.

From the Apollo 11 Flight Journal: “About now, Buzz turns to his left and takes a somewhat blurred color photo of Neil with the Hasselblad camera, AS11-36-5291. Then he turns towards Mike and photographs him also, AS11-36-5292. Mike is seen holding the TV camera which they have just been discussing.”
