Imperial Crane Mount (Skin) - Guild Wars 2

I was tasked with creating a crane skin for Guild War's 2 mount, but on the Raptor Rig. It was fun trying to figure out how to proportion everything nicely whilst still giving a players character room for their legs.

What about story of ming lan? I loved the women’s dresses

Ooooh, another recommendation! I've never seen this one, but I might have to watch! Since it's set in the Song Dynasty, I can absolutely see why you love the dresses. This post goes into a lot of detail regarding Song dynasty clothing and how pretty it is:

My personal favorite for beautiful dresses though is STILL the Tang Dynasty: JUST LOOK AT THEM! Honestly, the only style of Chinese Historical fashion I really dislike is Qing dynasty. I'm really not a fan of how... SAMEY the fashion was in the Imperial Court at that time. TAT

Due to Chinese New Year I'm going to be the only person working on my team for the entire week. Boo.

So I've noticed that they went and translated "the dreamer" as "the dreamer unit" in French, the same way you would say "an Eule unit". While I'd love to speculate how there's hidden nuggets of information in different localizations (how the Dreamer is canonically a Replika in French, for example), I'm sure it's just the translation team taking creative liberties and/or working on assumptions based on context. Still, one can wonder.

Update: In the German version, they used the masculine word for dreamer; while in the Russian version they used the feminine one. Once again, it probably doesn't mean anything but it's interesting how in both languages they could have used either grammatical gender but each went with a different one, following some internal logic for what felt right.

I really have to find a method that works for me for language learning but I've tried so much stuff already

[hamletisintown]

I'm so fucking annoyed at the number of english-speaking hoyoverse players who play with the japanese subtitles

I'm only speaking about like, streamers and youtubers because those are the ones i see playing, obviously (and i'm only talking about genshin impact and honkai star rail bc those are the 2 hoyo games i play but i'm willing to bet the trend is the same in other hoyo games, and possibly in other chinese "anime" games)

The number of times i click on a video and the person speaks english but has their game set to japanese dubbing for no reason, like. Can you guys stop being weebs for just one second please.

This one little indie game is singlehandedly letting me live out my childhood dream of playing with Sun Wukong and saving his good-for-nothing dumbass monk master

11/10, GOTY

I think my favourite thing about Keqing is that you can see the devs going "Okay we want to create a modern, capable character for our chinese nation who does things right regardless of tradition! .....but she can't be too modern and independent she's still got to respect the traditions :)"

Happy Chinese/Lunar New Year! It’s the Year of the Dragon!

Fun Fact: Last year was the Year of the Rabbit. It was also the same year I created Dusk and Dawn and started my webcomic about them.

I wonder if that means that I’ll make a dragon character later this year….hmm….

What about the emperor? If the Mc cheats on him and he loves them enough there is a chance for forgiveness? Or it’s pretty much done? Sorry if I ask too much questions but I am so curious!

No worries! No such thing as too many questions, especially since part of my creative process is TALKING about my game! haha That said, it really would depend on how it gets revealed. If it's in public, or in front of those the Emperor/Empress/Ruler can't silence, then unfortunately cheating on an Emperor is a death sentence. That said, if it can't be proven, or if it's privately revealed, or any number of other things, I can see at least survival, but perhaps not reconciliation. Why would someone who has that many spouses waste any further time on someone who cheats? (This is absolutely sarcasm!) I don't know one hundred percent, but its definitely something to think about for me, later down the line.

Id v is so crazy for making a big lizard man hunter with braided rows and then make him a survivor persona and they made him a skinny white man with rows.. not just that but he's a redhead too......... There's like only 2 genuinely poc characters in this game.... And one of them the devs are constantly drawing as a white man for no reason. the one guy who's supposed to be native American is just a white cowboy who was adopted by a tribe.
