Here is a shrimpy rambling about the Butler sprites for the April Fool's event 🦐

GAWD DAMN THEY BROUGHT OUT THE ENTIRE BAKERY WITH THOSE SPRITES

On a more serious(?) note, the sprites remind me of the Summer Raphael card. They're not L grade levels of rendering but they don't match the S grade card art style either. Naturally, I would assume they are S+ cards.

They will probably be acquired the same way as Summer Rara too: by purchasing a ticket with the code at the pop up venue. While I do get the marketing strat of lowkey forcing people to actually go to the venue to not only buy the code but also the physical merch, I hope PB wouldn't make much of a fuss about people reselling codes to people who really want the cards but aren't able to go to the pop up event.

So about the sprites! I don't think they are AI. That's just my opinion. Seeing the full body ones and looking through all of it from top to bottom (as respectfully as I could lol) they just suffer a bit of wonky-ness that all WHB sprites suffer. I don't wanna fault the artists since they've probably done the best they could. They gave us really good cakes after all. It could be from management's side of things or whoever is in charge of the art department.

Remember: the artists can give it their all but at the end of the day, management has the final say in things. Which sucks ass but that's the reality of things.

Besides, I think PB is smart enough to realise that using AI for their sprites would be like taking a shotgun to their own foot and ruin whatever's left of the players' goodwill. I hope.

MY BEEF!

The sprites are good but not perfect. There are glaring issues that we've seen and pointed out. Most of these are just stuff I personally have beef with.

1. Beel's skin tone.

Good god they massacred him. That is not Beel. Who the fuck is that man. I'm so happy the fandom agrees they fumbled this so bad. Putting up my edit beside it to preserve my sanity /hj

2. The poses and the proportions.

They're a hit or miss. Satan and Beel have the best poses imo. Mammon's is a bit fruity. Levi's and Belphie's is fine enough. Asmo's being a tease with the little butt grab. But Lucifer? Bro is your back alright???

And the butts...yeah idk how Beel's got the biggest and roundest. Oddly enough I think Belphie's got the most proportionate butt.

3. The difference in the rendering of their faces

Lookie at this:

Look how the rendering becomes more and more....simplified? as we go through the Kings in order of release. The main 4 is fine. Beel and Satan arguably have the better rendering with the lighting in their faces and hair. (i fucking hate using the unedited Beel sprite cuz of the skintone but im trying to make a point here)

Lucifer's is so-so but then we get to Belphie and Asmo....they got done dirty 💀 it's like the artist ran out of steam or smth.

I feel disappointed but not surprised kinda.

5. Asmo's hair

Just like Beel's skin tone, WHERE TF DID IT GO???? WDYM WE GET A LIMP ASS PONYTAIL FOR HIM???

Man where did all that hair go 💀 also did they make him paler??? like,,,how is that even possible

What in "Hell" is Bad's main selling point are the characters we simp and thirst over. PB should give great care when it comes to their art for them. I'm fine with average quality for the art but what I'm looking for is consistency. And for them to forget such a crucial feature like skintone, it really tilts me so bad. I can excuse the hair. You can argue that it's a different hairstyle but skintone??? I'm sure as fuck the artists have and can use a crap ton of references when they draw the character. So why the fuck did Beel's sprite turn out like that.

And then there's the inconsistency with the rendering. Idk what's going on during the art process but srsly....the difference is off putting, to me at least. Belphie's and Asmo's ass and clothes are more rendered than their faces.

At this point it's more of a Quality Assurance thing. Can PB get someone to review the art before it gets released or smth 💀 gotta make sure it's all yk, fucking consistent to all the art released so far

If you've made it this far, thank you for taking your time to listen/read to this shrimp's rambling about the demon porn game🙏

Just imagining Clancy from Toby’s Secret Pocket at a bar, drunker than life, thinking about Doohickey. ‘either I want to be him or be with him.’

Cut later into the night as he meets a woman who looks suspiciously like the woman in Doohickey’s wallet photo.

Cut even later to the morning after, Clancy looking up at the ceiling of his apartment, naked as the day he was born, thinking ‘fuck. I want to be with him. Shitttttt.’

bioware really said "let's release it on halloween... it's so terrible... it's gonna scare the shit out of everyone...the perfect halloween"

taco wouldn’t of missed

[dandelioncasey]

Just came across a post which mentioned this concept and now I'm wondering - has anyone found any fics where the shooting was about Hen and Chim, not Buck and Eddie? Or where the tsunami was Chim and Denny not Buck and Chris? Because I am DOWN to read those if anybody has written them, that would change the plots so much and I'm so curious 👀

[the-judicial-assistants-notebook]

so obsessed with susato that i forgot that her saving holmes's life wasn't something i just made up in my head but implied by the game to have been What Actually Happened.

[hecate-spawn]

I have hate in my heart and all of it is for Arisa Higure. Girl shut your bitch ass up and worry about your own fuck ass group

Shout out to Mariana tho hope she gets an L2D

[coulsonlives]

People glorifying a shooter and literally making cutesy moodboards of him really isn't the kind of shit I expected to see today, but that's tumblr for you ig.

no, i don't think political violence is a good thing.

i didn't start supporting it when trump was shot.

it would've been poetic justice for all of the political violence he started.

(some,) democrats already supported political violence when we shot and beat up college students for peacefully protesting

political violence and facism already haunts us

it is not something new to america

the lynchings were political violence

the attack on Nancy Pelosi's husband was political violence

it already haunts us

it will continue to

and it will never stop.

i am not a hypocrite, you just don't realise you are one yourself.

you already support political violence when you turn a blind eye to Palestine, Myanmar, China, Darfur, Ethiopia, South Sudan, Syria, Iraq, The Central African Republic, Syria, Yemen.

Political violence will always haunt us, we are hurling towards becoming a facist country. Trump being killed would've helped us not be in that position.

We have 90 seconds to midnight.

make them count.

[musical-chick-13]

It is because these people are stupid. Hope this helps.

[keenestpeach]

I don’t feel any worse or bad today but my brain keeps checking in being like “hey you wanna feel worse or bad today? I mean we don’t but you wanna force it? No? You wanna feel guilty for that instead then?”

[postapocalyptic-cryptic]

If you have never shot a gun the first thing you need to know is that it's scary the second thing is that it's loud the third thing is that it's heavy and the fourth thing is it's FUN AS ALL HELL
