Crossfire is so funny to me bc the plot is "angels/demons are real and oh no i am one :/" BUT YOUR BEST FRIEND IS ALSO JUST. CASUALLY A MINOR DEITY WHOSE FATHER IS TRYING TO KILL THEM.

Completely UNRELATED to the angel/demon shit you got going on. Can u imagine. Just going "hey I think I'm an actual angel" & ur bff being like "ok cool. btw I'm a god and my dad is trying to kill me" INSANE

#paraportal #luka.txt #console: phantasmagoria #game: crossfire #jake rivers #vincent Hyde #wrote a scene where the 2 are comparing notes on the weird supernatural shit happening #and Jake has a second to be like ''I can excuse angels & demons existing but I draw the LINE at you being a deitiy wtf''

If every wizard in Baldur's Gate is like this I understand why Croissant gave up on getting magic tutelage in the city.

i wanna talk about this phenomenon cuz i’m sick of seeing it.

it’s become cliche to this point that in basically any atlus game, it will inevitably circle back to persona 5 in its criticism. somehow, despite it being YEARS since persona 5 came out, game journalists still manage to keep bringing it up, sometimes in blatantly stupid ways like the example shown here.

here’s the thing: this is bad criticism. anybody could tell you that. saying “this thing is worse because it’s not this other thing” is an emotional response to something you’d tell your friend, not a genuine piece of criticism you’d make about a product. i’m almost certain this author was aware of this. so why did they include it?

cuz people won’t stop fucking sharing these to fucking dunk on them.

seriously. without fail, the reason i learn these exist is never by reading the articles. i don’t really read game reviews from professional sites. i only know of these because people find these reviews and spread them around to every fan of atlus’s games, and everybody makes fun of how stupid the journalist is for making a dumb callback to persona 5. i’m willing to bet that’s also how most other people find these reviews too.

these game journalism sites want clicks. they want attention. they want people to spread around the silly persona 5 comparisons because that’s the only way a lot of people will actually see or care about the article. and people fall for it every goddamn time. and honestly, i’m just sick of it. i wish all persona and smt fans would just fucking ignore it when this happens, because i’m convinced that’s the only way it will ever stop happening.

#persona #persona 3 #persona 3 reload #persona 5 #it also doesn’t help that persona 5 itself gets caught in the crossfires of all this #this makes people start harboring more undeserved resentment for the game which for god’s sake it doesn’t need more of that #so many of the dunks are like haha that should be a pro actually #and i’m like cmon man #why can’t people just be normal about that goddamn game

actually you know what the blue team fans are making this event insufferable. god forbid a red team fan make a post wanting their team to win. None of the red team viewers here can talk about anything without blue team fans shitting on them. Blue team fans, you’ve gotta start watching media with a more critical eye because your constant horrible interpretations are turning this place to shit!! Badboyhalo specifically has been using shitty dirty tactics the whole event, and yes he’s allowed to do that but this post ain’t about him—it’s about YOU. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. he does anything there are a dozen posts like “oh i bet the red team fans are going to complain about this again when their tactics are even dirtier” like you can’t be serious have you been watching the same content as me?? Bad’s tactics have always been the dirtiest, out of anyone. Red team has barely done anything that could be considered dirty. There’s a reason why all of blue team’s wins have been super unsatisfying while red team’s victories always feel like a victory. Blue team not only plays dirty, takes advantage of bugs and lag, but also always acts like their in the right about it. The difference is, the actual ccs are doing rp, while the fandom is just being dicks. and if the red team does anything cool its “oh this is unfair the rules are so stacked against blue team” literally wtf is wrong with you. shut up shut up shut up. let red team fans make posts about strategy and winning and rules without people in their replies starting arguments. let red team fans complain about their favorite character dying from lag or whatever without blue team fans making neg posts about that like goddamn just let people enjoy the content. “oh but red team has more fans” tbh their fans are wayyyy more respectful from what i’ve seen on here. blue team enjoyers you’re just being shitty people at this point. you don’t need to complain about everything.

#and before you come at me #I HAVE BEEN WATCHING ALL THE TEAMS #I KNOW WHATS HAPPENING ON THEIR STREAMS #badboyhalo is pretending to be shitty and rp defending himself #but you are just being a shitty person in real life #anyway just shut up #if ur just casual enjoying blue team and ur not one of the ones making constant complainy posts #this isnt about u im sorry u got caught in the crossfire #but srsly i have barely seen any red team fans actually complaining about the game unless theres lag or a bug or something #and most are just being reasonably frustrated not even talking about blue team just sad about red team #and i promise you it is not your responsibility to defend badboyhalo #qsmp neg

“What do you make of the claims that Robert and Aleksander have made about Ilnar and Tõnas, and the sense that ZA/UM has been stolen from them?”

“In the beginning, when we became friends...to me, he was a god. I was very young, very influence-able. I sort of admired him to a degree where my own personality was eaten up.” – Argo Tuulik, Writer at ZA/UM (responsible for Cuno, The Hardie Boys, Evrart Claire, and more)

Love in the Crossfire!

#Mothiva in Praline a la Modes dress! #if you dont know her shes from a game called Bravely Default #just one of the best games ever made. alongside Bug Fables. #this idea came to me when my internet was out for a few days #i had to listen to the contents of my laptops music library #and up came Pralines theme song which is like a super catchy pop ballad that she uses to hype up her soldiers in battle #and i thought #holy shit this fits Mothiva so well #they have so many similarities its unreal. #theyre both battlefield pop divas #theyre both pretty arrogant and egoistic #and they for sure love treating their battle partners like servants! we love ourselves some girlbosses in this house!! #anyway i highly recommend listening to the live version of love in the crossfire on youtube. its awesome. that whole concert is awesome btw #bug fables #mothiva #bravely default #praline a la mode #pralines dress actually might have killed me for real. shading that shit was not fun. #bug fables mothiva

it continues to sincerely thoroughly baffle me that rise was (as far as i know?) the FIRST tmnt generation to canonically establish them as coming from different biological parents, being all different species, and yet not ONCE took advantage of it with a SINGLE yo mama joke among them. not even once. i consider this a major flaw because realistically considering their characters this should happen in every conversation.

#because they don't have a shared mother figure who would get caught in the crossfire AND none of them knew their turtle moms #meaning none of them have emotional attachments to them and it's not like theyre insulting some random woman they're literally turtles #it's completely fair game #there's literally no reason why it would never occur to any of them to say this #the funniest line on the show was mikey saying eeehmm was yamama a house? cause youre putting up BRICK 😂 and it could have been made so #much fucking funnier if he said that to like. leo #tmnt

I have so many thoughts about Joshua and his father and the way his father died but the problem is whenever I try to put them into writing I explode

#ffxvi #joshua rosfield #joshua's obsession with protecting the people he cares about but insistance on keeping some distance from them #the way his father's last words were Elwin trying to protect him #just like. how traumatizing it would be to witness your dad suddenly get Ned Stark'd right in front of you at the age of ten #the way he clearly cares deeply about jote but sends her away #away to safety and happiness (he hopes) but also away from him #because he's playing games with a god and he can't stand her getting caught in the crossfire #he stays away from clive for five years presumably to protect clive #i think he projects a confidence he doesn't actually really feel tbh #i think part of him is still the ten year old who was buckling under the knowledge that everyone will look to him for hope and protection #and i think he's really really scared to watch anyone else he cares about die #anyway. rotating him in my mind #what i'm saying is i think he still has blood in his eyes

[dottores]

#before i leave #a poll #i want to say yes #i rlly do #but dottore would wanna do some experiment on them #and i would probably get caught in crossfire and killed #or he would be the one to CAUSE IT #💀💀💀 #and again i am caught in cross fire #there’s a chance but #it’s slim #for pantalone i also say probably not #he’d be one of the rich ppl who have a high tech high protected base #but one person gets infected and then #we’re all like trapped mice #my bf started playing a zombie game last night so i’ve been thinking about it

Yoooo happy birthday @petrock42clone I made a thing for ya! :D This thing actually took a little while to finish (with the frames being manually being drawn on Ibis Paint and Microsoft Clipchamp being a bitch), but considering what I'm able to do as an amateur animator, I like how it turned out ^^ Characters used (in order of appearance) Sketchy (Axel's ARMSona) Crossfire (my ARMSona) Tracey Doodles (on the left) (ARMS OC by Axel) Scarfer (on the right) (ARMS OC by Axel) Jeon-Neo (Punch Out OC by Axel) Kapster Shot (far left)(ARMS OC by Axel) (I actually did the design based on a description of what he looked like by Axel a while back, so if I missed anything, I'm sorry TwT) Dustin Fleetwood (middle left) (Punch Out OC by Axel) Beep Bow (middle right) (Punch Out OC by Axel) Siren Sparky (far right) (Punch Out OC by Axel)

Here's the inspiration for the video (I also got the audio from there and yes the audio is edited there too)

Okay I'm gonna post (most of) the individual animations below, since I really like how they turned out

#crossfire drawings #crossfire animations #<- in case I plan on doing more animations in which I might it sounds fun ^^ #art #digital art #arms #arms game #punch out #arms oc #punch out oc #gift for a friend #animation #if there's anything wonky on the video I blame most of it on Microsoft ClipChamp #Youtube #also good luck on getting your drivers license/learners permit Axel!!!

Ref Sheets 2/?: Crossfire Edition!

Crossfire is about a young man named Jake, who recently got amnesia and is trying to regain his memories. In reality, he's actually an Angel that got cast out of Heaven and put into a Human body as a form of "time out", which is also technically part of a bet some other Angels have going on. Tldr this is the angel/demon story lol.

I wasn't able to draw a lot more characters this time, mainly because they come in later in the story and tbh I'm not 100% sure on their roles n shit yet. Except for Daniel, he appears early on and SHOULD be here but. alas.

You can view their toyhouse profiles here.

🏷 : @burningivy @shrimpnymph

( 👻 ) Paige "Willow" Murphy (she/her): Ghost who lost her memories, Davy's best friend.

( 🍂 ) Brooke Winchester (she/her): Annoying ass cheerleader that framed Nox for murder once.

( 🔮 ) Nox Hyde (he/they): Reboot!Shadow/Shadow reincarnated. Has their own sideplot where their dad — aka Life/Vitalis — is tryna kill them for being happy basically.

( 🐇 ) Jake Rivers (he/him): Angel who lost his memories after getting put in the worst time out possible (stuck in a human body until he Learns his Lesson).

( 🗝 ) Veronica Devlin (she/her): Angel that lowkey helped start a cult.

( 🥩 ) Connor Wolfe (he/it): That Thing in The Woods. Cannibalistic werewolf that somehow adopted Willow after she died. idk either man.

[marklikely]

i feel like im never going to be fully satisfied by any saw sequel (or the fanbase for that matter) bc i dont think the majority of ppl involved read jigsaw the same way i did.

#all these attempts to like humanize and flesh him out just end up totaly misrepresenting him and his goals #no he is not actually trying to improve the world hes a sadistic little man whos angry about dying and coping with it badly #he gets a front row seat to all his games and cuts trophies off his dead victims. bc he likes the violence #he puts people who absolutely DID NOT DESERVE IT (in saw 1 at least) in these elaborate death traps that they overwhelmingly fail to escape #sometimes he puts a completely innocent person in the crossfire (like seriously who is that guy who amanda had to kill to get her key) #hell they explicitly say that guy in the chair trap did nothing wrong he was just dying 'for a greater purpose' to test the trap. #but nobody ever acknowledges all this its just like 'what if we give him depth by saying serial killing isn't so bad' #and it never works and usually ends up with him being unbelievably self impressed and annoying #id honestly rather they explore his 'depth' by just. expanding on him as in denial and wanting revenge #which tbf i thought X was doing a decent job at until the last half hour when they threw the character study away entirely #like just give me a jigsaw who is angry at dying and takes it out on the Living because he has no other outlet. ill accept that. #him killing people who need to go can be like. gory tasteless fun in the sequels but it makes it like. #idk. less satisfying to me? or it just puts this wall up that makes the movies not come together the way the first one does. #avpost #movie diary

There's something delightfully fucked up about somehow binding people's consciousness to animatronics and then taking that a step further to turn part of your spirit or whatever into code to gain another form of immortality. I also Really dig the idea of Glitchtrap killing OG Afton - almost something poetic about the shift of power from Afton being killed by his own OpenAi-Powered fursona for me. But I guess he probably canonically died in Pizza Sim.

I like Help Wanted+SB era FNAF a lot more than the older games, but there's so many interesting things to carry forward from the old stuff too. My city now.

Oh that would be a hell of a narrative play for him to die like that ngl

But yeah. Our city now lmao

#yeah there's some fun stuff back there #it's time to apply what has come from there to the new stuff though #for me anyway #literally every time someone 'solves' fnaf something comes along and butchers it we should know the cadence by now #that's just not fun for me. I like to make sense of what I can see and with the narratives I can form from the threads #i feel like I have actual characters to play around with now whereas before it was just. #OCs in the shape of the old animatronics because they didn't HAVE characters #it had an impact on me of course but it was the concepts of animal animatronics #of hiding things in plain sight and of arcades and play places with mascot characters that were always there to entertain #the themes of mystery and murders was fun too but it's. not a mystery we can solve anymore #i believe that's intentional #if people are forever trying to solve the lore then the game never dies. #that's just how the rehashing feels to me now :/ #but that's just it isn't it? #that's what the story has become to me. #a story of a company making decisions for money and reputation over safety and common fucking sense #and it's fascinating to me to look at the characters caught in the crossfire #that can do NOTHING because of this giant fictional Disney holding the strings to their entire lives #maybe I've just been thinking about justice in Meteors and the elaborate cover ups too much recently #but SB and Ruin feel like the extreme results of a company that Does Not Care. #well there's still Glitchyboy and Vanny but even then... #I dunno. i like the story being the result of a company that couldn't care less #i like it being about what came from a generation they tried to move on from but chose to drag with them #i like the idea of them scrambling to solve problems CHEAPLY and not necessarily EFFICIENTLY #the true reality of a CEO that's never set foot into the world of the layperson or the world that they've created #a true group of fools in a board meeting discussing the shares of a covered up murder machine #those within this machine can only control their response. some of them don't even have that. #and yet somehow #SOMEHOW they're clinging on. #SOMEHOW they're still here.

Crossfire at the bridge – text action movie

Developer`s log

It is in development videogame Crossfire at the Bridge. One more small game, written with QB64. Modern version of QBasic. Videogame is made with text mode. Style of very early computers. All graphics in a form of text. Letters and symbols have some meaning. For example, a cover, or a free road. Your soldiers or enemies.

Game is in development. Game is turn based. And about a military theme. Graphics is schematical. We have behind us a big bridge. Which you need to cross. It is order given to cross bridge at price of any cost. And already at the left part of the bridge, you already have 5 soldiers. They are marked with symbol – { or }. it depends on what side they look at.

Bridge itself is made of free cells. Or in a form of obstacles. Let it be a tank crest to be there, for example. It is symbol X or _ if place is free to move in. And at the opposite side, just before the exit - enemies soldiers are standing.

 All soldiers can shoot. Automatic rifles. They have machineguns, submachineguns.

And your goal is to move soldiers at the other side of the bridge. You have a reserve and you can pick out of it and move soldiers to the start of the bridge.

Idea of the game – to cross the bridge with any cost. And your soldiers need to use covers and shoot. And move at the other side. Aim of enemy – is not to give you to do this. Block the way, shoot at your soldiers.

Game has a schematical graphics. Textual view. And you can imagine using your imagining what ever you want. Personally me, I watched movies about second world war. And it was, in different movies, a scenes with crossfire at the bridge. Using of covers. Or scenes of descent to the shore. Where at the opposite side is enemy. And there are small places for cover. It was main idea of the game. Weapons – it is for everyone automatic rifles, machineguns, something like that.

Bridge, tank crests, cover places. And automatic guns, machineguns. And group of soldiers, that are crossing the bridge. And at the opposite - enemy, that do not give you this to do. So, this is a short description of the game.

Text game. It is playing turn by turn. First is making a turn – it is you, player.  Next it is enemy, computer. And in the end, it is to see game score. This is a view. How many are dead. How many soldiers are in reserve and how many soldiers has crossed the bridge.

One more time, this game is made its own way, variation about games Crest and Shooting, Rifles and Trenches. But again, one more time. Another way. New game. New rules. And new idea for a game. It is played like new. But, by the way, all the games are connected with theme of second world war. And crossfire. As a main idea.

If Crests and Shooting and Rifles and Trenches are rather different, but has some similar start ideas. But here it is all different from the first time. Another perspective. It is a big bridge. And full text graphics. In a selected games it was some graphics. But a little, and even 4 colors somewhere. Then it is here a text game. In a mode screen 1.

Game form appears as two parts. An upper part it shows what is it going at the game field. It is drawing a bridge. And there are all the soldiers there.

And lower part – it is interface. With several commands. Go left, right, up or down. And also, you can shoot. If ammo is out, then it will be reload. And call from reserve a new soldiers. Last option – it is new. You have in reserve 15 soldiers. And you can summon them, at the start of the bridge, someway. Summoned soldier will appear at the start of the bridge with the random place.

And so, it is - also a well know thing already. You need to move and shoot. Search for covers. Turn based mode. Text graphics.

Active soldier, which is moving now, he is lighted with symbol - <. And it flashing from time to time. You need to see carefully. So here it is perspective like a from a birds view.

Imagination can show to you a big bridge. And it has a different items. Covers, tank crests. Barrels. Or what else it can be. And your soldiers are running there, and hide behind the covers. And they do a crossfire with enemy. To cross the bridge.

So, mainly, you can play for your interest. And not to add soldiers from reserve at all. Or opposite, to add all of them from reserve at once. So, you will have lots of soldiers. It is whole 20. Game is complete, when all soldiers, that are located at the bridge, has cross the bridge. And it will be shown a game result. So, if to turn of some imagination, then you can create a different stories. And call for support, for example. When it is good for you. Add a new soldier. And this way they will step by step move to the end of the bridge.

Enemy is endless. And his aim – to break you while you cross the bridge. He walks. Shoot. So right now, I am testing about how ai will act.

And you can imagine that your soldiers are running from cover to cover. Crossing a long lines. And crouched, they sit under the covers. You can draw in your imagination a whole action movie about second world war. With automatic rifles, machineguns. Or, because of schematic graphics - whatever you want, as you wish. What your imagination can do. This point is very big about pure text games. A thing that you can apply your imagination. About what is going on around.

Game is turn based, so you can drink a tea. To look some scenes from action movies. And again, to make a turn. And, of course, – have a good imagination about what is going on.
