It looks worse and runs worse than every other RE Engine game.

About DD2...

Am I the only one that thinks that the art direction is completely bland and lifeless? Hogwarts Legacy had more colorful landscapes, and HL is one of the blandest most repetitive open worlds I've seen in years.

Truly makes you realize why people praise Elden Ring and the latest Two Zelda games. Technologically, their visuals are kinda dated, but each frame is packed with personality, beautiful color design and every location is memorable. Anytime I watch DD2 footage, it's some "realistic" generic, washed out forest area that would make a 2008 PS3/X360 FPS game blush with how little color there is.

Unfortunately, Imgur doesn't want to actually upload photos from my phone anymore for some reason, and I haven't looked for another host yet.

EDIT: Huh. Okay, so this time it decided to upload the same pic twice instead, but it only shows up when I select All posts, not Hidden or Public. This app keeps getting more annoying.

Anyway.



My last build, the Master-grade Sinanju from Gundam Unicorn. I knew it was a bigger mech, but I didn't realize it was quite that big next to a more standard-sized suit like the GM Turbulence. Unfortunately, my gold paint marker started giving out halfway through the detailing on the trim. You can see a few spots, most obviously on the cuffs and shield, where I have some touching up to do once I pick up another marker.

The biggest downside in the build is the older style of hands. They have a tab in the palm that goes into a slot on the weapon to hold on, but it's not very sturdy, especially with a large weapon like that rifle. And the tab is infamous for wearing out over time, so eventually it'll have no grip at all. I really prefer the pre-posed molded hands used on more modern kits, they're a little less expressive but much more reliable. Still a pretty regal-looking suit, though. Even has a neat gimmick in the head, turning the neck causes the mono-eye to track back and forth, although the visor is so narrow that it's easy to miss.

I have a crush on someone at work
and everytime i get around him i either force myself to act disinterested or I get super high anxiety and act oddly around him, and i cant help it! my option is to just try to act normal but the anxiety takes over and BLEH
he wont make eye contact with me
i guess he picks up on it and wants to avoid me like the plague ; -;
i dont wanna date him if ill admit, but i would like to at least get to know him to some extent!
