It feels like every time I get hopeful for something, it gets torn apart somehow. That same old fear nipping at my heels again. I wanted to keep this a positive account, and focus on my aspirations. But lately it feels like a noose is slowly tightening around my neck, and I can't keep quiet forever.

Filling out a passport application seems needlessly inconvenient in a way that can only be described as deliberately excruciating

I'm encouraging everyone participating in the Neightreign network test to set a group password of "nexus", all lowercase. group pass = nexus I'm curious if group passwords are working, and if group elements will stand out similarly to, or somehow different from, in Elden Ring.

Welp, this was the plan & now RFK is confirmed & Musk dismantled health: if you vote for conservatives you've voted to kill me. Unfollow plz Telling me to move is an insta block. It's not just about me: it's about disabled ppl. Learn the issues, like other countries barring disability immigration

I'm sick of ppl scolding creatives for this. It's painful for me to delete my Twitter, bcs yeah, it's a lot of followers. But also, when I post there I do still get ppl subscribing. I've not turned on the heating this winter to save money, I can't really afford to just "cut my losses".

I have a professional portfolio that you can check here: wildweasel486.github.io/portfolio.html And a personal website/directory here: netizen.club/~wildweasel/ If any of this looks like something you'd want to hire me for, even as a temp gig, get in touch! Thank you all for the reposts so far 🙇‍♂️

fuck fuck FUCK. AGH OK Can anybody help me find work, The one I was talking to fell through and I'm getting really scared now

So is there a specific feed or hashtag for level designers on here? I see plenty of gamedev stuff of other sorts, but nothing about fun environmental or level design. I'd love to pick some brains, that's a major weak point in my kit.

An odd thing I was thinking about is Form Emphasis. These faces both have every slider set to 128, except Form Emphasis is set to 0 in the second image. Considering most of FromSoftware's preset faces have Form Emphasis at 0 or a low number in general, I think this is actually the true default face.

The eternal question of a modern Zelda game: voice acting, or no voice acting? Voice acting can lend some serious weight to characterization, but there's something charming about the odd grunts and caws that pre-Switch Zelda stuck to.
