Big image dump on what I did since last time I posted.

First, Le Spasfon :

I made a paper statue, as good as his personality (which is quite bad, but still funny), and made him rotate indefinitely.

Then, the other stuff :

I painted the damn helmet I made so long ago.

I started making a robot with Scratch-Bashing

And here are some doodles I made.

Pyroshark dance party in Blu team's sewer!

Everyone is invited!

[paper-mario-wiki]

Seeing all your TF2 clips has kinda convinced me to give it a try again...

Any tips to have fun for what might as well be a complete new player? (haven't played in 10 years and even then i was mostly just fucking around in deathmatch servers)

i get this question sometimes, and the answer is really quite boring:

find something that looks like fun to do, and then go do it! browse around on the community server list and see if there are any interesting sounding servers to hop into. assemble a loadout 100% as a gimmick to play around and do silly stuff with. most weapons have a stat that make it feel like a gimmick all on its own! the one i fell in love with first was the Neon Annihilator, which gives guaranteed crits against wet opponents. this not only works with water, but if you can team up with a sniper/scout with jarate/milk, you can get crits against people they make wet too! a great place for this is 2fort, which has a big swimming pool in the middle that pyrosharks can swim around in.

(heres the weapon loadout i recommend for a pyroshark):

try a class you've never played before and do your absolute best to fulfill what you perceive the duty of that class to be. remember, TF2 is first and foremost a TEAM shooter, so you will find more success and enjoyment in learning to proactively seal up holes in your team's composition than you will in obstinately choosing the only class you like playing even though there's already 3 other people already playing it on your team.

Team Fortress 2 x Limbus Company, Part 2

The Mercenary's IDs

Part 1 with the base ID affinities and EGOs here.

Limbus Company is interesting among gacha games in that rather than introduce a billion different characters to choose from, you have just 12. However, for each of your 12 Sinners, you can obtain a variety of "IDs", which essentially let you turn them into a different version of themselves with different abilities. This is neat both from a gameplay and a story perspective, as most IDs put a spin on a character's backstory. The depressed inventor gets to be a depressed art student, the guy with a bug arm gets a robot arm instead, the starry-eyed dreamer gets to feel what its like to lose all hope, etc.

It'd be easy to just give everyone IDs that directly correlate to their gameplay - i.e. give Pyro all the Burn IDs, give Scout all the Haste IDs, etc - but that's not how Limbus works. Identities in Limbus are basically AU versions that resonate with a characters story. Of course, there are a bunch of generic filler IDs - most characters have Liu or N corp IDs for instance. The ones presented here are simply the ones that most strongly are emphasized. Where possible, I'd also like to give each merc multiple statuses to choose from, but that's less of a priority than making sure they fit.

Since most faction IDs are shared between multiple characters, the name of the Sinner their kit would be most like is also listed.

Scout

The Middle Little Sister (Donqui) - is literally a little brother. On one hand, he's not exactly the type to tank damage (bonk doesnt count). On the other, he'd absolutely want tattoos that make you stronger.

Kurokumo Wakashu (Heathcliff) - For all his foolhardiness, Scout is hardly suited to lead. But he'd love busting kneecaps as a second-in-command; he died and his heaven involved being best bros with God.

Cinq Association East Section 3 (Donqui) - Fast, dodgy, talks a big game. Enjoys a sandwich or a bucket of chicken on occasion.

T Corp Excision Staff (Donqui) - Scout does seem to take a lot of Donqui's stuff, huh? Zipping around like he's on borrowed time suits him. Introspection like Rodion doesn't.

Soldier

G. Corp Head Manager (Outis) - "As of this moment, anyone who frowns at me will be dishonorably discharged." "You are all dishonorably discharged." Which one's Outis and which one's Soldier?

Deyvat Association North Section 3 (Rodion) - Despite his military commander persona, Soldier doesn't really care about rules and regulations. The only ones that matter to him are ones that exist in his head, like "America #1!" and ones that will result in him dying if he breaks them - and I'm not sure about the second.

Lobotomy EGO: Sunshower (Heathcliff) - Many soldier cosmetics and even weapons present him as a vagrant.

Lobotomy EGO: Red Eyes & Penitence (Ryoshu) - From the bottom of the barrel to the Strongest. He's the most all-around class in TF2, with cosmetics like the Team Captain being associated with glory and awe. Soldier doesn't really care what he's throwing down with, he's going to have a good time. Remember Expiration Date? He sounded absolutely delighted to be thrown around by the bread monster. Also, senseless violence - again, something Ryoshu's familiar with.

Pyro

Firefist Office Survivor (Gregor) - It'd be easy to just slap every burn ID here and call it a day, but there's a little more complexity to IDs than that. Firefist is all about avenging his comrades, much as a Pyro will hunt down a spy after their engineer's nest goes down. Also, incomprehensible screaming.

Molar Boatworks Fixer (Ishmael) - Imagine a depiction of Pyro as a mysterious being in a diving suit instead of a WW2 gas mask. That's not quite the same as what Ishmael is doing, but the rubber suit connection helps - I chose this instead of the Pequod Harpooner for the idea of Diving Suit pyro. Also, pyroshark.

Effloresced EGO: Spicebush (Yi Sang) - Many pyro cosmetics replace their head with something else. In this ID, it'd be a branch of flowers. In the comics, Pyro is also depicted as a CEO of an engineering company, but it's an achievement that they take no pleasure in.

N Corp Grobhammer (Meursault) - Pyro's probably a human under that mask? Heavy might disagree though; "I fear no man. But that thing... It scares me."

Demoman

Twinhook Pirate First Mate (Gregor) - Pirate mode.

Lobotomy Remnant Yuri Faust - Eyepatch.

Molar Office Fixer (Outis) - Very effective at his job, despite the alcoholism.

LCE EGO: Ardor Blossom Star (Faust) - Will blow up everyone in the room, including himself.

Wild Hunt (Heathcliff) - Gets more powerful with each beheading, wields a (headless horseless) horsemann's blade, has a mansion to come back to. (It's funny because WH!Heathcliff has a *headless horse* which he's usually not mounted on, so "headless horseless" applies to him as well as Demoman's weapon, which is the blade of a horseman who lacks both a head and a horse.)

Heavy

Middle Little Brother (Meursault) - Taciturn, but very much capable of kicking butt and taking names.

R Corp 4th Pack Rhino (Meursault) - Big, heavy, and nearly impossible to stop once he gets going.

Pequod Harpooner (Heathcliff) - Both serve as the Big Guy of their group. Also, both tend to use few words.

Dieci Association South Section 4 (Rodion) - Food, punching, incredible durability, and an education that he uses more than you'd expect. What more could you ask for?

Engineer

Multicrack Office Rep (Faust) - the brains of the operation, plus robotic limbs.

Rosespanner Workshop Fixer (Gregor) - Made his robot arm himself.

The One Who Grips (Faust) - I'm not saying he's a robo-racist, especially since he's literally the first one to chop of his hand to get a metal replacement. But engineers can get pretty fixated on solving "practical problems" while ignoring ethics.

T Corp Class 2 Excision Staff (Rodion) - Steampunk gears do suit him, but the guy loves inventing. If his job was to take away other peoples' inventions I think he'd be pretty depressed too.

Medic

The Princess of La Manchaland (Rodion) - You know those "medic girlfriend" loadouts that are permanently attached to their boyfriend's rectum? Basically a fancy trophy next to a screenshot of 16 dominations and not much more? That's what it feels like to be Dulcinea.

The Ring Pontillist Student (Yi Sang) - If Medic had gone into art instead of medicine.

R. B. Chef de Cuisine (Ryoshu) - He has his own reasons for wanting to dissect people, but this is as good an excuse as any.

W Corp L2 Cleanup Agent (Hong Lu) - There aren't many IDs designed heal or help others tank better. Being at home with and unbothered by gore seems like a Medic thing too.

Sniper

Lobotomy EGO: Magic Bullet (Outis) - He's a sniper.

Full-Stop Office Fixer (Heathcliff) - He's a sniper.

Cinq Association West Section 3 (Meursault) - "Meet the Sniper" was basically him liveblogging a day at work.

N Corp Kleinhammer (Heathcliff) - Snipin's a good job, mate. But if there aren't any good jobs around... Well, you do what you have to in order to get food on the table.

Spy

Cinq Association South Section 4 (Outis) - "Let's settle this like gentlemen!" Unlike Sinclair, he's confident in his own abilities, so I'm matching him to Outis instead.

Edgar Family Chief Butler (Ryoshu) - Knives, professionalism, and being two-faced like the person this ID is based on.

The Barber of La Manchaland (Outis) - Has a certain sense of style other mercs (read: scout) aspire to.

Seven Association South Section 4 (Faust) - Aside from being very capable at investigation, he's willing to expound at length about the things he enjoys. For him it's less likely to be tea than fancy suits though, but there's no shortage of suits in the City.
