It’s so weird that Sega just refuses to mess with the position of sonic quills in renders to make them look better because they did exactly that all the way back in generations for the trophy room statues.

Here’s the thing, Octopath Traveler DOES look very good imo. It has a very distinct style to it. I simply do not like that every other HD 2D game following has nabbed that style and haphazardly slapped it onto their projects without understanding why people liked how it looked.

Arlo is just a species name, they come in various different colors and are all named Arlo. They are a hive mind for one larger beast, the Grand Arlo, and represent all of the Grand Arlo’s thoughts at once.

A single solar flare particle traveling 93.421 million miles to Mike Pollock’s cell phone changing a 1 to a 0 in the code making his Twitter app crash the exact moment someone articulates a point about the ongoing bombing of innocent people in Gaza
Noticing that Mike Pollock hasn’t said anything on his Twitter since the other day when he said dead children in Palestine are “collateral damage.” Just find that interesting, it’s almost like he’s trying to lay low until it blows over again.

I thought he’d be, like, the only one who knows that they live in a video game world, and he was literally attacking them with physical game glitches

This is a very good change actually, because it makes it look like the website is actively glitching and breaking. This will help users to find better alternatives because they don’t want to use a broken website.

Imagine Blaze having a panic attack during that one random IDW plot point where Sonic’s trapped in the Sol Dimension and slaying like a Queen
Couldn’t sleep, decided to clip the part of the video they’re referring to.
Someone asked how he would redesign some characters if given the chance. Nowhere does he say that Sega prevented him from doing this, nor that he asked them to. He is just spitballing ideas out as a fan.
I really didn’t expect this to blow up like it did. I will say, with the right people and the right direction, the “HD-2D” art style can look good.
Game Freak are not the right people, and the current trend with every other HD-2D game is not the right direction.
While I don't begrudge anyone liking the

, I myself can't get past the Paramount+ trailer.
"What do you like to do?"
"Vengeance."
What the hell is that? That's not the character. My initial thought when I wrote his 1st story is he's a GUARDIAN, a PROTECTOR.
@TennyUnderscore
Sonic definitely would have picked up Mario World just so he could insult Mario more properly, only to fall in love with it and go apologize to Mario and become best bros.

Sakurai, I want you to imagine, you’re at Nintendo at your computer-okay you’re at your computer. And uh who walks in Chris?
Uhhhhh, Tomar
Right, Tomar walks in, uh he puts a gun to your head and bellows “put Kirby into Smash or I blow your brains out!” What would you do?
Nancy Pelosi: Protesters calling for a ceasefire in Gaza "is Mr. Putin's message... Make no mistake, this is directly connected to what he would like to see...

Pokémon Black and White is my favorite game in the franchise. It has a very distinct art direction, with bright popping colors.
Octopath has a more muted look to it’s color palette, that I do not think would mesh well with the world design of the Unova region.
I’m so glad this apparently doesn’t connect much to Sonic 3 because hoooooly shit, how do you manage to make a show about Knuckles the Echidna so unappealing?
I’mma be honest, I think she only looks the way she does because that’s how Ohshima does Sonic characters. You gotta remember that of all the Sonic characters out there, he only really designed Sonic himself. Espio was actually designed by Takumi Miyake.
Finding out that the red accents were inspired by kumadori makeup makes me wish even more that they went with the beta version’s white coloring for Super Shadow
I haven't seen anyone else talking about the rest of what was said at last week's Sonic Fan Meeting panel in Korea. So I went ahead and translated this small portion where Hoshino talks about Shadow's design. It was pretty interesting tbh
They tried. Hamas was ready to give up all the hostages they had. And you turned them away.
You do not care about the hostages at all, nor did you really care about the attack on October 7th. All you saw that as was an excuse to wipe out the entirety of Palestine.
Yes it’s been months since this was brought up. Yes, I’m still pissed about it, because this is just being a weird creepy dick to a fellow artist instead of actually providing any sort of valid criticism that could help them improve their work.
