If i wanted to get into some good visual novels, what would you recommend? also, If i wanted to get into Fate so i understood the other half of the references you post, wheres a good place to start that? I own fate/excella for ps4 but haven't started it up yet (it's sat next to completely unplayed copies of Death Stranding and Hellblade: Senua's sacrifice) is that decent enough to start with?

kind of one answer to both questions here!

while I don't think you can't get into fate through extella (it'd be pretty confusing, but because it got an international release, it was a lot of people's start!) I'd highly highly highly recommend the original Fate/stay night and Fate/Hollow Ataraxia duology first. with the Realta Nua Ultimate Edition patch (you can find it through the Fate subreddit discord, or through asking around for the link, since I don't have it at the moment) you can experience the cult classic in its most complete form

even more accesibly, Mahoutsukai no Yoru is out there. it's not exactly Fate, but it's a visual novel adaptation of the very first story written in the setting that contains Fate. not a necessity by any means, but it's fun! Tsukihime Remake is fantastic and will be getting its official english release soon as well (a full translation is already available, if you can Legally Acquire a japanese copy to patch)

for other good ways to hop into vns that aren't connected to Fate, there's Higurashi and Umineko, both of which have official english releases

What are some songs you have picked out for Sidra? /What are some key songs in her playlist?

Anon you have unironically bestowed upon me the greatest gift any writer on tumblr could ever receive: Being asked about OC playlists.

I am going insane as I type this. I hope you have a wonderful day and that some of these tunes will be to your liking!!! ❤❤❤

I also added some of my favorite/most relevant lyrics where applicable because I couldn't stop myself, hope you don't mind!

Zoë Keating - Escape Artist

The first song on Sidra's playlist, it perfectly captures her entire vibe. I love the crunchy sound of the cello, the deep notes, the tense anticipation that never quite gets resolved, and the stoic melancholy of this melody (pretentious).

Madi Diaz- Ashes

Captures the vibe of Sidra and Reese's (human FWB) doomed-from-the-start relationship.

LP - Muddy Waters

Mostly on here because I think it's pretty but also I imagine Sidra's singing voice sounds about like this.

Florence + The Machine - What the Water Gave Me

Self-explanatory inclusion, one of the songs that inspired the vibe of the faery wip from the start. Also fits Sidra's semi-suicidal attitude throughout the book.

Ruelle - Take It All and Up in Flames

More vibes, but the lyrics also fit quite well for Sidra's journey.

Lord Huron - Way Out There

Did a whole edit of this one.

Woodkid - Iron

A soldier on my own, I don't know the way I'm riding up the heights of shame I'm waiting for the call, the hand on the chest I'm ready for the fight, and fate

Some of the lyrics work rly well but the fuckin SOUND of this is everything. Also the name, obviously.

Heilung - Krigsgaldr

Coexistence, conflict, combat Devastation, regeneration, transformation That is the best I can do for you I see a grey gloom on the horizon That promises a powerful sun to rise, melt away all moons It will make the old fires of purification, purification Look like dying embers, look like dying embers

This song is 9 minutes long and the English bit in the middle is so hardcore, but this is my favorite bit of it because it encapsulates a lot of Sidra's purifying but also terrifying rage.

Florence + The Machine - No Light, No Light

Honorable mention to this even though it's technically in my Sidra/Val playlist. This is every #deep person's sad romance song so it's mine as well. BUT! I can't not include it because it's the entire reason Val has blue eyes lol and inspired like 90% of their dynamic back when I was only starting the story.

The rest of the songs are pretty much soundtracks from The Witcher 3, and Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice.

#a lot of these songs are spoilers if you really listen lmao #so there's that truefans #faery wip

WORLD EATERS! LET THE GALAXY BURN!

Way back, 2 months before the launch of 9th Edition, I decided to start a World Eaters army. I did not buy a single Berzerker kit; instead I did an elaborate kitbash/conversion project. It is, to this day, the best art I've ever done. Tragically I never painted them, and some are unfinished. I'm going to start sharing pictures of them on here, hopefully i can inspire myself to finish this project later this year. Note that I don't have the new codex yet, so, any discussion of rules will be outdated

Khorne Berzerkers

One box of Blood Warriors from AOS, one box of MkIII Tactical Marines from HH, a shitload of Chaos Space Marines, & bits from many other kits. I gave them all axe & sword as that was the optimal loadout at the time, and tried to give each warrior at least one chain (or serrated) weapon. The Champions could take combi & melee weapons back then, it was legal at the time I swear, lol

These first ten Berzerkers use the bodies of Blood Warriors, and the lower legs of MkIII power armor. The most obnoxious part of the project, but I think the warrior's big leather boots would make them look goofy. Their poses look kinda wonky but whatevs. I made csm breastplates fit on them with a knife & greenstuff. Note that one champion has a bloodletter's hellblade; I was inspired by the plague sword available to plague marine champions

These next models are mostly normal csm, but with blood warrior breastplates. These don't fit perfectly & required quite a bit of work to look natural

And now the rest of the horde. Less impressive, as their torsos & legs are all csm no modifications, but they're still cool.

Across all 38 Berzerkers, there are a few heads from csm & blood warriors, but most of them are from other aos Khorne kits. Or chaos marine characters, primaris reivers, mkIII helmets, etc. One of the icons of Khorne is a lord discordant's backpack.

There are a lot of custom weapons. The corpse grinder cult in particular is a great source of chainblades, but they're small, so I made a bunch of chainaxes. Power maul haft, skull, corpse grinder chainblade is a perfect fit!

A significant portion of them have arms that were holding guns, I cut the guns off to fit the weapons I wanted them to have. I also had to do this with the combi weapons, as those are from the Chaos Terminator kit

Chaos Rhino

This just seemed like the thing to do tbh

#lildudeposting #wip models #world eaters #warhammer 40k #I am so truly proud of these guys #but they're not as good as the characters :3 #I'll post those tomorrow

Weekend Top Ten #585

Top Ten Games I’d Like to See at Not-E3

Welcome to the latest edition of David’s Hastily Rewritten at the Last Minute Top Ten!

So here’s a little peek behind the curtain. I’d planned to do a couple of weeks of gaming-themed Top Tens (Tops Ten) leading up to a “prediction special” before the Xbox summer showcase in late June. And I am still doing that, more or less – except, with the announcement of the PlayStation showcase this coming week, I decided late in the day to switch gears a little bit. I had thought, well, I don’t really play on the PlayStation – or even on the Switch that much, to be honest – so making bold predictions was rather daft. But then maybe trying to make any kind of predictions was a bit daft in any weather.

It used to be that E3 was a big deal, with all the major platform holders having a showcase and revealing their big news – alongside smaller, indie news nuggets too. But during the last console generation that stopped being as much of a thing, with multiple events spread across the year now dispensing news more evenly. Plus it feels like journalists – and Reddit – have gotten smarter at predicting what the major players are doing. For instance, they know when Nintendo are ordering processors or whatever, indicating they’re producing new hardware. That sort of thing. This detective work, although kinda cool, also robs us of a lot of genuine unexpected surprises. We knew Playground Games was working on a Fable reboot for, what, a year or two before it was announced. That’s just how these things happen I guess, and I don’t even feel I’m trawling for news or anything. I quite like to be surprised.

So anyway, I did have some Xbox-specific predictions written down but they seemed perfunctory and slight and, crucially, mostly unfunny. So instead I’ve once again cast my net industry-wide and rather than making bold and preposterous predictions – or even accurate ones – I’m just going to talk about what I’d like to see. Closer to the time I might go over some of my Xbox dreams, but it’ll be body text and not in the list. For now, here’s a list of ten games – some real, some imagined! – that I would love to hear about in the various shows and presentations over the next few weeks.

And that’s it!

Fable: we know it exists, we know Playground are making it… and that’s about it. What form, exactly, will Fable take? I assume it’ll be a third-person RPG as per the previous games. But Fable had such a distinct style, not just in art but also in tone and gameplay. Even if original developer Lionhead still existed, would it be possible for new people to recapture the magic of (especially) the first two Fable games? Will there be a dog? Will there be the simplistic one-button combat? Or breadcrumb trail? Will it be super-accessible but also really naughty? And just when can we play it? I’m hoping, with a tiny touch of realism, that it might be out by Christmas 2024, and we’ll get a bit of gameplay or at least an in-engine trailer this year.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2: a game that feels like it’s really taking its sweet time but which – I have decided to believe – will be out this year. Maybe. Anyway, I’d like to see more gameplay – a proper extended live playthrough, right there on stage. And I’d like it to end with “November 2023” or something. That’s it!

Ara: History Untold: I’m fascinated and intrigued by Microsoft’s Civ-a-like. We’ve had a sort-of cinematic trailer and a few ambiguous screenshots, but I really want a serious deep-dive into what it’s like, how it plays, and why it’s different to the all-conquering Civ. I’ll be playing this regardless – Game Pass, natch – but I want to see it in action, and I want some seriously detailed articles from embedded journalists.

Mass Effect: another game that’s taking its sweet time, and one we’ve seen even less about than Hellblade 2. The first Mass Effect trilogy is tremendous, one of the best game series of the 360/PS3 era – and that’s really saying something. After the misfire of (slightly underrated) Mass Effect: Andromeda, we’re all rooting for this new game, especially as it looks like it’ll have some returning characters from the classic trilogy. I’ve no idea when it’s due, but it’d be great if EA could show it off a bit this year.

Indiana Jones: another one that’s shrouded in mystery, but surely with Dial of Destiny in cinemas now would be a good time to see the first Indy game in an age? I’ve no idea what to expect – presumably a third-person action-adventure, hopefully one that puts as much emphasis on Indy’s wits and smarts as it does on his ability to punch Nazis. It’d also be great if it was due in the next eighteen months. One thing I’m not looking forward to is the inevitable console war it’ll kick off: produced by a Microsoft-owned studio, but featuring a huge global franchise, I genuinely could see it going either way vis-à-vis its appearance on a PlayStation. And whatever happens, some people are going to be very vocally annoyed.

Quake 2: “but Quake 2 has been out since 1997,” I hear you cry. Yes, but not on Xbox Series X/S. After Quake’s surprising (but delightful) console remaster, I want Quake 2 to get the same treatment. But – here’s the thing – I want to see them implement the fantastic ray tracing effects you can get on PC. There just isn’t enough ray tracing on console, people! I know this would be smaller potatoes than some of the other huge fries in this list, but then I like a bit of retro fun.

Civilization VII: I mentioned Ara above, but the daddy of the genre is obviously still Civ. I’ve played Civ VI a frankly unhealthy amount – 1,700 hours on PC and another 200 on Xbox by last count – so even though there’s still (still!) a lot to do I’m ready and willing to see what’s next. Now, I’m certainly not expecting a deep dive filled with gameplay; they’ve only recently released DLC for the latest game. But a proper announcement and maybe even tentative release date (2024?) would be enough. Although I’d love a screenshot.

Mario Kart: now, realistically, I’m not expecting a new Kart – or a new Mario – until the Switch’s successor is released. But maybe that’ll happen soon! I’ve seen some prognosticators assuming that the “Switch 2” (please, please call it the “Super Switch”) will be out by next March. If so, they’d better start announcing games soon, and one I’d love to see would be a brand-new Mario Kart. Where do they go from here, is the question? Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was almost a best-of package of the entire Kart saga. What more can they do, really? I’m fascinated to find out. And – selfishly – I’d like it to still come out on the old, original Switch too.

Lego… Something: yeah, vague. I dunno. After last year’s Skywalker Saga – a bit jaggedy round the edges but still excellent overall – I’m hankering for more TT Lego action. The company has a long history of making these fantastic, immersive, damn fun little games filled with Lego renditions of your favourite characters. I know they’re working on a new game – rumours have swirled about Marvel Super Heroes, Batman, and a general “Disney” game featuring Disney Animation and Pixar characters – but rumours have also swirled about development hell and projects being cancelled and rebooted. I hope they’re working on something, and I hope it’s in a good enough state to show, and I hope – for my own personal satisfaction – it’s either a DC or Marvel project. Adopting the open world hubs of Skywalker seems cool, but I’d rather they kept the actual missions tighter and more focused. And, personally, after revisiting their first success (Star Wars), I think they should go back to their second success (Batman). How about a multiversal mashup – Lego Batman: Infinite Crisis perhaps?

Lemmings: look, a guy can dream. I know Sony are working on some cool things – I’m very intrigued to see Wolverine – but they’re also sitting on Lemmings. Not literally, that’d be uncomfortable. But after the recent success of EA’s Command and Conquer remaster, I would love – love – for Sony to give the first two Lemmings games a spruce up with 4K graphics. Just make them inherently more playable and accessible on modern hardware; stick them on Steam, Epic, GOG, whatever. Hey! Howsabout you do some funky VR shit and put them on PSVR2 while you’re at it? I don’t care; I just want to easily play Lemmings 2: The Tribes on my PC. And after all my old wishes – new Fable, new Perfect Dark, Ron Gilbert returning to Monkey Island – actually went and came true, I’ve got to find another unrealistic aspiration.

So I tried to be more-or-less realistic here – Lemmings is the only one that’s truly out-there and very unlikely – but I could pluck from my ether several more games that I would like to see. A remaster of Fate of Atlantis in the manner of LucasArts’ other graphic adventures? Yes please! A new Banjo Kazooie? Seems inevitable at this point! More Crackdown? I doubt it! But all the same, the next few weeks should be full of incident and – hopefully – some of those surprises I mentioned before.

Zool on Game Pass! Red Alert 2 remaster!! HALF-LIFE 3!!!
