Once again my reach exceeds my grasp with the RM fanart, but here's one for @kentonagbone.bsky.social's Hero's Realm. Obviously based on that one Amano piece, seemed appropriate
I have no idea how to draw monsters, even if I'm just basically drawing sprites 😩

Also slept on Boron for way too long, man just has a "win the game" button tucked away in his Hero Mode

I think the only thing I'm still kind of disliking is the lack of focus given to the towns? When I originally saw Fuga I imagined there being a Layton-esque picture exploration concept with towns, but they're just one image and some text/shop menu options, which is a little sad (very pretty though)

Finished up Chapters 4/5 this morning and met the resident "hot nazi" archetype
Feels like the mechanics have finally clicked in place for me now, these two chapters were a lot easier than 2/3 and I'm, actually getting some enjoyment out of the tactical aspects of unit arrangement/skills now

Pixel Quilt over on the RMN discord has me trying to de-rust myself after years of not doing any work in the medium... Still a long way to go to get back into it though.
Gonna need to soon as I am rapidly approaching needing "for real" work for my project too

Hard to believe it's been 10 years since Wanda debuted in One Piece. Still remember the day Chapter 804 came out and I saw her for the first time❤️
This one went through like 400 versions but somehow I actually finished one for the day its supposed to come out. Go figure.

It is so hilarious that the so called "sentient" computers that are good enough to replace everyone (except important CEOs™️) still can't deal with object permanence, spelling or consistent logic

Beginning is kind of rough, the end sort of falls apart, but the open world mid-game is really something special. For the most part I had a ton of fun playing this, I'd say it's a nice 7/10. Will have to write a full review soon.
Looking forward to seeing how @kentonagbone.bsky.social's redux goes.

I wasn't entirely sold on the aesthetic of some of the early chapter areas, but I think Kentona's mapping got quite a lot better as this went on, because the later towns are just extremely pretty with this low-scale RTP look.

For a brief moment I became *very* excited about the prospect of an open world 4-party hot swapping experience (not that I understand how that would even function tbh) but alas, only for specific dungeons, otherwise its just character cycling in the same "slot"

I tried the demo for a laugh but honestly? The new Bubsy game kind of slaps??? It's been a long long time since I had so much fun messing around with the movement tech in a 3D platformer.
Went in with no real expectations but now I'm definitely going to be grabbing this next year.

Barely scraping through a boss with half your party dead and most of your resources depleted then having to crawl back out of the dungeon has gotta be one of the best parts of the RPG experience

I'm not sure what possessed a person to throw out a book of sheet music signed by Stan Rogers, but finding it on the line at work today is going to be a highlight of at least the week if not the year tbh

I realized I don't have anything going on since Silent Hill shit the bed, so why not finally get around to an RM classic?

Gotta appreciate when a game makes traversing zones a pain in the ass to make it "scary" then spends the entire level making you traipse back and forth across the entire map every time you have to do something
(Leaving clock tower, need to reach basement, have to go upstairs and back down again)
