I know Gacha games are “bad” in a lot of ways But ZZZ and Honkai Star Rail have been really fun as a F2P player. I get plenty of new characters from free pulls and the rarest ones are nice to have but not necessary to complete missions.

I was surprised that Honkai Star Rail is actually a good game. It’s gacha, but it’s otherwise a pretty normal JRPG with a simple combat system that works well for mobile, good attack animations, and a rogue-like mode. I’ve never once felt like I needed to buy anything to enjoy the game.

It’s #portfolioday once again and I’m still Jeff, an artist with a retro-inspired chameleon style, who is still looking for work in comics, publishing, video games, cartoons, the works! 🔗 jeffpennington.art 📫 [email protected]

Windows 10 is staying on my PC until the wheels fall off I’d rather learn how to use Linux than install Windows 11

Is Fire Emblem a JRPG? I never considered it because I’ve always associated JRPGs with turn based combat

New trailer of "Lupin The IIIrd : Immortal Bloodline" animated movie directed by Takeshi Koike. In Japanese cinemas June 27. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yELE...

Morning sketch!

The referenced clip in the below post is this. I think everyone should watch it. What also hits me hard in this is at the end when he says "I fear we are nearing to the end of times. We humans are losing faith in ourselves." youtu.be/ngZ0K3lWKRc?...

L had one of these in Death Note

New items on the revamped store! yardleyart-store.myshopify.com

Of all the media illiterates, ppl who wanted Light to win in Death Note are the most illiterate

It’s funny how after a hundred new updated of Skyrim the NPCs still follow you inside of buildings if you go in while they’re saying a line at you lol

Americans are going hungry under Trump. Food banks across the country — already strained by deep cuts to locally grown food programs — the U.S. Department of Agriculture is canceling $500 million in expected food deliveries, further disrupting aid as demand continues to grow.

Warner Bros is in talks to sell ‘Coyote vs Acme’ to Ketchup Entertainment for ~$50M Film will release in 2026 if it happens (via Deadline)

Okay dammit I’ll try Death Stranding

Aero Fighters (1993)

Never tell your friends the length of the video essay you’re about to spring on them

Edgy "adult" Netflix Popeye adaptation where the entire first season is about him deciding to become a sailor. In the final episode, moments before the end, he eats some spinach for the first time and has a wild allergic reaction that makes his arms swell horribly and puts him in a coma.

I legit get FFXIV mixed up with XVI sometimes not just because the numerals make me feel dyslexic, but also cuz the main guy in 16 looks just like the default warrior hero from the cinematics of 14 I mean tell me these aren’t the same dude

holy crap go see this movie right now no hyperbole or exaggeration that was such a fun and really well animated film

Street Fighter 6’s World Tour mode doesn’t get enough praise If I’m not mistaken, this is the first character creator and story mode in SF (Soul Calibur III did it first in 2005 on PS2 tho). It’s fun and silly, teaches you mechanics, and the more explicit link to Final Fight makes me so happy

St. Patrick’s Day means nothin but green, baby

What’s fascinating is that every culture throughout history has independently developed its own legend of Bulk and Skull

Hoping all the ‘Coyote’ people are putting their money where their mouth is and going to support 2D animation in theaters. Spread the word!

Seems the new Death Stranding trailer has brought the 'Kojima is too weird and needs an editor to cut his wackier ideas' crowd. No, fuck that. He's basically the one guy in the ENTIRE INDUSTRY that gets to be weird at high budgets. We need more Kojimas. Dozens! Not hammering down the one we have.

It’s funny to me that ppl associate anime with screaming, because one of my fave things about many anime is the quiet and contemplative moments where the image speaks for itself.
