Sue me for this if you wish but I think Big World Big Adventures: The Movie wasn't actually as bad as everyone says it is and it's high time we gave it the appreciation it deserves, like it's a bit too overhated in my opinion. Maybe it's just my inability to be overly mean and aggressive abt pieces of media that line up with comfort interests but I genuinely don't get the hate towards the BWBA movie....like nothing was bad abt it in my own opinion? The songs were fire all the way through, the visuals are very pretty (the LIGHTING!!!), and I mean like Nia is there and how can you possibly hate anything that features Nia she CARRIES that movie so hard. I've seen some ppl say the movements are too much but like...it makes the engines far more expressive and I highly prefer them having a bit more movement to being entirely stiff because being stiff restricts their expressiveness even more, and tbh realism was left behind the second the cgi series made its debut (Ex: D51s were first produced in 1936 and yet Hiro was somehow the first engine on the island of Sodor) so I don't really look for realism too hard when it comes to TTTE because I mean...the trains talk and are fully sentient, and that's already grounds enough for me suspend my disbelief a TON.

Maybe it is just my Nia bias (AND YONG BAO IS THERE AT ONE POINT!!! Absolutely love him.) but I think BWBA is pretty good, it's one of my favorite TTTE movies. It's just really whack that half the fandom seems to hate or at least mildly dislike this movie, which was a huge shocker to me because I was happy stimming the ENTIRE time on my first watch. It was fun and colorful and expressive and thinking about how it introduced so many international machines to the lineup...like I physically cannot hate a movie that caters to my favorite thing EVER in shows with sentient machines (seeing the machines from other countries). I don't mind the fact that ppl dislike it at all (bc everyone's entitled to their own opinions and all that jazz) but it's more just I can't really find any negatives about it, the only character introduced in it that I dislike is the one they (assumedly) want you to dislike and even then I gotta admit his song slaps. To each their own in the end, I suppose, but the point I'm trying to make is that I think we gotta be at least a LITTLE bit nicer abt this movie. (And if anyone interacts w/ this post, please don't like. Start fights on it or anything. This post isn't mean to spark any discourse or aggression, it's just my personal thoughts that I'm sharing with the fandom because so far all of you that I've met are EXTREMELY kind and understanding and so I trust you all to be normal abt it.)

That's not all either, the part of Lethal Company that absolutely shames triple A is one simple fact:

It's made on a shoestring budget, as an experiment, it's 3D models are horrifically made, by someone who clearly didn't watch a tutorial and just went with it.

"Games are so expensive to make"

No the fuck they aren't. Graphics are.

Here's something for ya: The arm textures are on backwards, the hand model is rotated the wrong way which is why they break so heavily, there's missing/bad polygons everywhere, and the texture sheet, oh my god, the texture sheet is the worst I've seen.

And yet, still, 10/10 game. Doesn't matter that it's graphics aren't impressive, it's artistry is off the charts. Doesn't matter that the models are unoptimised or poorly put together, because they get the job done well, and it's so easy to run that it doesn't even matter that they're unoptimized.

He made a good game. Reminder. He. Singular. 16yo. Made Lethal Company.

No triple a company can compete with the 16 year old, let that sink in.

OKAY I NEED TO RANT ABOUT THIS CAUSE AUDHHSUSHEJDJD!!!! I just had a convo with a friend about this and AUGHH.

Okay. So like they had brought up that ‘at least Val did one good thing for angel by giving him fat nuggets’ and I disagree. I disagree a lot.

I really don’t think Val did this out of the “kindness” of his heart. I believe this is another manipulation tactic. Knowing Val’s actions and how he treats people I believe his gifting of fat nuggets was a tactic to give angel a false sense of security. Giving him something he can adore, just for it to be used against him. I imagine that Val most likely used fat nuggets as a staple to force Angel into doing what he wants.

I really don’t see Val gifting Angel Fat Nuggets as a kind gesture, but a scare tactic. Something to invoke fear from him if it was to be taken away from him. Giving Val a harder grasp on him and not giving him much of a chance to slip away.

Though these are just my thoughts. I don’t think Val will ever gift out of kindness. He only gives to get shit back in return. He uses his “kindness” to manipulate and dehumanize his victims.

Hey Anna how do you feel about Kano's Look in the new Mortal Kombat game? 👀

Oh no, oh hell no! I get the node to the old original look, like it's a reboot and all, but i think it's too soon for a new game. MK11 was so good, everyone looked so tasty with boob windows, i think the franchise peaked with it.

And 1995 movie Kano is still my favourite one ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Y'know.

When the company fets a new CEO and suddenly your department starts having to do mandatory overtime (which is not illegal) whenever the weather does ANYTHING, and half or more of said department isn't even doing their job on any given day because they got assigned work for other departments, I think that means the CEO is really bad at his job.

I'm on the verge of trying to rally people to start a union or get fired trying because this shit is ridiculous. How the shit am I supposed to do anhthing ever if I could have to do overtime at any moment? and when I say 'mandatory' it's 'do the hours or get fired' mandatory.

Spanner and Shoichi are so married but the kind of married that their closest friends wouldn’t even know unless they were at the wedding.

A part of me wants to take up crafts like knitting and crochet again because they're legitimately soothing, while another part of me wants to take them up so I can become very very good at it all for the purpose of making the weirdest more inappropriate shit.

Like all those cross stitchers who use the words "fuck" and "shit" in their creations.

I see that stuff and all I see are life goals.

I want to have a bathroom with an elegantly stitched cross stitch that says "Hope you have a good Shit" or something.
