...And the older journal isn't accurate anymore, I'll just post this new one!

... Agh, I feel like I'm spamming journals. DX Sorry...

Right. Uh...


Oh! Tell me... I'm not the only one who didn't think Silent Hill: Homecoming was that bad, right? D8

I know, I know, they caved into the fanbase a little, but come on- we know the town re-uses it's symbols. How many Nurses are in the games?! XD All of them have recurring monsters! No-one said Pyramid Head was confined to James' world. >:
He is pretty much the universal "rawr, I feel guilty / require atonement" monster anyway. XD

Of course, I know they only put him in for the fans, but it's not so far-fetched. D: The guidebooks mention Pyramid Head and Valtiel being connected, as well as the Butcher, so it's not too implausible! XD
I was a little annoyed when I heard they threw him in there too, but it's not worth boycotting the game over. O_____O

And there's a 3D Camera for once! 8D *Fails at 2D Camera controls* D8

It certainly wasn't the greatest but it's not worth the fandom raaage it's getting. o____o At least, I think so... >:

EDIT: [link] Mwahahaha~

--

Time to get rid of that rant! XD

ANYWHO...

It's the holdiays, yay! 8D More time spent.. procrastinating! XD

Miiight maybe possibly hopefully be going to SMASH in Sydney and see Kitey again. Maybe. D: I hope so.
Feel like cosplaying Naoto for some reason, but I just know I'm gonnna look god awful...! XDD;;; Ugh. 'Sides, wigs and the like are expensive. D:

And focusing on Persona for a bit longer.... I had a sudden urge to make/join a P3/4-ish RP of sorts... Except I don't imagine something like that would work well. XD
Ze Wild Card user would have too much dominance in the plot, and if we went for a P4 approach, the other character's would get their time to shine if a "personal Shadow --> Persona" sittuation occured, but... That would over-shadow everyone else. XD Ugh...

Not to mention I imagine that would attract all sorts of 8-year-olds typing lyk dis without grammar and god-moding, and no serious thought for character development... Not to mention the Personae they'd pick... Oh god... @____@;;

... Okay, it was a nice idea while it lasted. DDDDDD:


... Holidays~! :3

Edit: BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY. I want to play TF2. D: Aside from having no means of playing it (since it needs to be online and I have it on ze Orange Box and we have no Xbox live anymore. ;___; *Sniff~*_) I'm scared of jumping in and playing online with teams RIGHT AWAY. D: It's scarrryyyy. What if I mess up and ruin everything?! XD
Plus, I wanna be a Medic. C: I've always loved being the heal-y guy, but I think Medics are hard to play, for begginners. D: Ah, I dunnooooo~

Does... anyone play it? XD

OH. Also interesting~

I CAN play L4D online~ 8D
... Though I suck at using a compy to play it. XD
But maaaaaaybeeeeeh I'll try it~ <3
When my BRRRRRRROTHEEERR(sorry, obscure reference xD) tried it, they kept booting him off because they noticed our IP was Australian, and people assume that = super laggy. D8 We haven't got the best internet, but if we play on lower settings, it runs fine! SO, uh... It should be alright~ XD

BLEH. 'Snot like I'd be any good anyway! XD But Hunter-pouncing people would be fun. C:

AND NOW THE RANT.


<sub>...I just found an artist I like left dA because they didn't like the fact people liked their colouring (GASP! Oh no! People favourited my work when I didn't want them to! Oh! Oh, how horrible!!), and not their lineart so much. Their colouring was nice, their lineart was... gradually improving. It needed work- still better then anything I could do, mind~ XD

Anyway, I was just a silent watcher, but one day, someone had the audacity to- shock horror- critique their work and tell them so!!

*GASP* Stop the presses!

It wasn't mean or anything! It was genuine, honest critique! Plus they noticed collabs with someone else's lineart and their colouring got more attention- that's life, baby. XD

So they bawwed and wrote a goodbye journal, deleted everything and ditched the site.

....

Wut.

WUT?

Oh, humanity. xD

It's just... really silly, isn't it? XD

It's just really pathetic that there's tonnes of artists here who'd be happy if they so much as got a view on their work, and here's someone complaining at "All you people like about my work is my colouring!!"

... Well, BOO HOO. >%E

... And the next aritst I see baawing and deleting their work, opening a new account without any fanart and having a go at anyone who dares say "You know, I liked some of your fan art. :3" I will break my vow of "not-getting-involved-in-other-people's-buisiness" and screeeeeaaaaam at, I swear! DDDD8<
I mean, I understand not wanting to draw fanart anymore (though I wouldn't! xD Not for views, but because I just love drawing the stuff~ XD) but... treating your fans that way is just...

UGH! XD


Wow, I'm in a bad mood today. XD I hate tests.... XDDD</sub>


Oh!! And artblock, yeah. xD

....
...Why do my favourite characters in things always die...? D8

_M-Meerrr-... *Cuts off* Oh right, Spoilers. D:

... *Cough*


;_____;



A-ANYWAY.
Uh... Yes, the Action Replay is still acting up. DX I have no clue how to fix it, so... Uh, I'm at a loss. cX

And uh.. Haven't been posting much lately, have I? Maybe I should do another Sketch Dump of traditional stuff. C:
... Not that I really have anythign good, mind, but... Well, it's something right? XD

So yah, I'm not quite dead just yet. 8DD;;;


Interesting thing happened today; I was on Global Poxedex Plus when I did all my typical clicking, then went off to do my other usual daily internetings, leaving the tab up, when I refreshed the page a bit later and.... H-how did I get so many people clicking me, aaaaahhhh!! @______@;
Then I spent a good... several minutes clicking them all back... and more took their place... What happened?! D8 I usually never get clicks! XDDDD;

Okay... My brother gave Vui and me his old Pearl copy to mess around with. We traded the good ones over to our Diamond, and we want to start a new game.

The thing is, DP is the mot horribly redundant of all the Pokemon games I've ever played! So we don't want to go through the same frikkin' formula- Get starter, catch Bidoof, Catch Starly- uuuughhhh... .______.

We got an Action Replay for the DS for cheap, and we thought we'd hack some Pokemon in to the beginning- not super strong or anything! Maybe just have... Something-that-isn't-a-Bidoof, at a low level to go through that game with and stuff, just to make things... tolerable.

Buuut, uh...

We can't find the codes!

Please, please! I've heard of people doing this hundreds of times- how do you hack in modified Pokemon into a copy of Pearl? We want to be able to chose the gender, whether it's shiny, nature- stuff like that. D:

Oh, and please, no-one lecture us on the ethics of hacking. =____= We're doing this for fun, we won't be using these Pokemon in anything and where not hacking them to be super-strong or anything like that.


Does anyone know?! @______@
