alright look i know my following is not the target audience for this kind of post but i wanna at least point something out about a scene in the Fallout show that i haven't actually heard a single person point out or comment on.

spoilers ahead.

in the scene where the ghoul is rewatching his old movie, specifically the scene where he originally protested about killing the villain.

the first layer is the obvious one: he is talking directly to himself. "you were strong, ugly, and you had dignity. i'll give you two out of those three." he remembers what happened at that shoot just as clearly as we did, and after he literally tells himself to his face "you're strong, ugly, and have no dignity" followed by him killing the man he originally wanted his character to save. this, of course, coming DIRECTLY after the person he sold into slavery earlier that day sparing him with life saving medicine while he's on the ground and telling him to his face that he only lives on because someone stuck to their humanity. very heavy! i bet he feels like shit, which he probably should because he's kind of a jerkoff! (but in a cool way that i like to watch)

the SECOND layer is the one i find way more interesting. the phrasing of his final line we didn't hear before was so dripping with importance that it felt like i was reading RPG dialogue and story relevant words were highlighted. "i hope you like the taste of lead you commie son of a bitch". as we'd already seen in episode 3, he despises vault-tec for everything he knows they are responsible for while he was their face. moreover, it's made clear that he doesn't just resent himself for being used for their image, but he resents the fact that he was the face of the propaganda which drove the war fever that caused the end of the world. the wild west ideal caricature of masculine wisdom from the movies as the spokesperson of the company who stood to profit from the purposeful decimation of the human race. he became The Ultimate Jingo.

and i really enjoyed how brief yet informative that detail was! i really enjoyed how the directors tell you what the characters are thinking intuitively and effectively through the camerawork and those little details make the whole thing a lot more fun to mull over and consider as a part of the whole of Fallout! i think it's neat.

Sorry, your game looks cool, but the promotional material used the words "wholesome" and "cozy" so I gotta stick by my principals.

I see your "Laios is trans" but that dude is THE most apathetically agender person on the planet. Laios does not have time for gender. Laios does not even HAVE a gender identity, he removed it to make room for more Monster Facts.

i figured out the specific archetype that i am (or at least the one i strive to embody).

it's murderer night, the one night a year where there's for sure a murderer. famously, the murderer will do everything they can to try and deceive you into opening the door, so i'll have to stay alert.

at midnight i hear a knock on my door. cautiously from my couch, i holler "who's there?"

i hear whoever's on the other side say "im a woman with boobs".

i contemplate this for a moment, before opening the door. on the other side is the most beautiful woman with boobs ive ever seen. but while im looking at her boobs she takes out a knife and murders me.

moral of the story: women can be murderers too so stay on guard.

Can I have a copy of the HUD I wanna make it into a YuriHud

im sorry, but it's kinda my baby and she's not even done yet, so the disney vault is staying closed for now.

that said, it takes quite a lot of effort to do something as basic as changing a font or resizing an image, and at that rate you might as well be learning from scratch. if you're still interested in figuring it out some way, i suggest you tinker with the same HUD that I did before deciding to make my own: the Maidcore Hud!

she's a unique looking lady herself, but she wasn't right for me.

only 3 days after installing, i made the first draft for GirlHUD in photoshop:

and ya know what? i think i knocked it out of the park, and even made some improvements to the concept!

so! all that is to say: design what you want your hud to look like, and then figure out how to make it look like that one piece at a time! it is a rewarding experience, i promise.

hi... what soup would you cook for dinner?

i wouldn't

i was about to reblog this with "looking back at my blog from the past few days and seeing so many tf2 clips is like waking up in a crater and noticing my hands glowing with residuals of evil magical energy" but then i remembered that this is my blog and it is whatever i want it to be so in reality it's actually like waking up in a beautiful field of blooming flowers and fruit trees and noticing my hands glowing with residuals of badass evil magical energy.

every few months i turn back into a tf2 blog for a bit

Cool clips, chucklenuts. Can you airblast

As it so happens, airblast is the mechanic that made me fall deeply in love with the Pyro in the first place!

I absolutely adore how versatile it is. I think it is the single most useful action in the entire game, and I have spent hours and hours using it and loving it.

Here's my degreaser, which I added a "projectiles reflected" tracker to at the beginning of the year.
