So I didn’t get into Starstruck Odyssey the first time I tried to watch it so I’m going again. But were there any specific points in it (spoilers allowed) that you were like “hell yeah, this is amazing!”?

Genuinely genuinely genuinely idk how ppl can keep playing sky and making art for it like nothing happened. You know tgc can and will steal ur fan seasons. U know they'll be homophobic again next days of rainbow. U know they're going to keep making the game objectively worse for the sake of money. How does anyone find it fun anymore.

Ok guys I don’t know about you but I’m seriously starting to wonder what japanese game devs have against having a consistently art style???
PARTICULARLY devs making anime games? Like are you guys upset at genshin? Is that why you don’t want your enviorments to have the same rendering or style you use on your main character?
No joke I’m so tired of anime games having a super realisticly rendered world but the main characters have a black outline, or extremely saturated color scheme to the point that it looks like they don’t belong. (I’m looking at you Pokemon). Games like BotW and Genshin are good examples of how to have a stylized look applied consistently while STILL having the main character stand out. Shit even okami... and that game is almost what 20 years old?

Listen man, you guys can't be like "you guys need to be normal about asexuality" and then turn around and get weirdly judgemental when you find out someone doesn't have sex by choice. Like that's weird that some of you do that.

[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled "immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]
a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”

"A story doesn't need a theme in order to be good" I'm only saying this once but a theme isn't some secret coded message an author weaves into a piece so that your English teacher can talk about Death or Family. A theme is a summary of an idea in the work. If the story is "Susan went grocery shopping and saw a weird bird" then it might have themes like 'birds don't belong in grocery stores' or 'nature is interesting and worth paying attention to' or 'small things can be worth hearing about.' Those could be the themes of the work. It doesn't matter if the author intended them or not, because reading is collaborative and the text gets its meaning from the reader (this is what "death of the author" means).
Every work has themes in it, and not just the ones your teachers made you read in high school. Stories that are bad or clearly not intended to have deep messages still have themes. It is inherent in being a story. All stories have themes, even if those themes are shallow, because stories are sentences connected together for the purpose of expressing ideas, and ideas are all that themes are.
