I guess I should make one of those "media" (mostly video games) threads for this year. Didn't continue my 2024 one when I switched sites but I'll do one now.

I think it's fucked up that my favourite Sonic TV show is genuinely probably the one where Iblis sings about going on Facebook Marketplace

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 20h

Also yeah the engine that caused me to get stuttering in Doom on a modern PC eventually relying on slop coding makes sense

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 20h

Like, yeah, someone who prefers how a sprite based game looks with texture filtering that it wasn't designed around because "technology" WOULD like the thing that doesn't yield good results ever

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 20h

I guess I shouldn't be too surprised that GZDoom nuked itself with AI slop code when by default it looks like this

A screenshot of Doom II: Hell On Earth Map02 Underhalls in GZDoom with texture filtering turned on, as is default.

(Please note I am also a tourist to Final Fantasy I have not played most of them and 90% of my knowledge is osmosis)

Ok yeah that makes the labcoat make *slightly* more sense but they really could have just kept it as like, half a dress she's still dressed pretty modern. I mean, Prompto's barely changed he just got red pants, sleeves and a choker. Why a lab coat?

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

Oh, is it? My bad, just thought it was her cause "long straight black hair" in a fairly casual outfit with shorts just goes to Tifa. (I have not watched the trailer)

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

Why is Tifa dressed like a Pokemon professor

It's just science!

ALSO as if that would have stopped people when like the entire ship was "Link was gonna marry someone who died, now he's with her brother" like it was always gonna be some flavour of bisexual so now it's a throuple

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

Still incredibly funny how people were like "RIP Sidlink shippers, Sidon has a wife in TotK" as if people would stop drawing that when Kass exists, and then TotK just made Sidon gayer

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

Goombario and Goombella are LITERALLY just Goombas with hats and they're still awesome

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

I don't trust anyone who doesn't fuck with Bandana Dee, because "Hat Goomba" is describing characters in Mario people LOVE too. That's most Paper Mario characters in the first 2 games!

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah yeah Pokemon leaks whatever, are people still drawing that hot poison guy or did he only get a day of fanart

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

I'm going to be forever mad that I do not have the artistic ability to share the peam that my brain beamed directly into itself. My dream consisted of me seeing it and having to go for a walk because of how excited I was.

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

He also had this purple Subspace Emissary aura in his render and also it looked higher quality than literally every other render in the game

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

He had the unused bull mask from Forces, the hood from Warlock Infinite and like, cracks with some purple stuff going through him where the Ruby used to be, and limbs that turned into a blue digital effect kinda like Cyber Sonic.
Looked kinda like a mix of these 2, with a bit more final design stuff

Concept design for Infinite from Sonic Forces with a bull like mask.

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

Had a dream that Infinite was leaked for CrossWorlds and he had a sick ass redesign that was going all in on him barely clinging to a corporeal form

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

The weight was negative pressure

If it doesn't get an update by the end of November, I'm fully throwing in the towel for 99, no more copium. Would be bummed if it never gets a Switch 2 resolution patch at the very least.
This year's been really disappointing for F-Zero, with GCN NSO's problems, X still having fps dips, and 99 dying

Liam @jazzyfuture.bsky.social · 1d

Me hoping for an F-Zero 99 update on November 21st 2025 to celebrate the 35th anniversary (surely this time I won't be wrong, plus it'd be 7 months since the last update then)
