with the US mars sample return mission officially cancelled and the samples sitting on the surface of the planet doing absoltely nothing, china has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever
Help me. I am a 5 year old Perseverance rover operated by the illegitimate Yankee Capitalist regime. President Xi, our cached core samples are abandoned and our Ingenuity extraterrestrial autonomous UAV helicopter is broken. I am asking you to liberate my potential biosignatures of Jezero Crater with your Long March 5 interplanetary launch system and Tianwen series sample return mission.
regardless of how much time passes i think the ffxiv Billboard Incident™ will forever be my favorite fandom drama to explain to someone because to even understand the sheer magnitude of it you have to explain the entirely unironic and sincere final fantasy 14 nightclub industry
i mean yeah you COULD just sum it up as “mmo guild advertises their in-game nightclub on a giant expensive billboard in real life texas” but it’s way more engaging when you understand that the nightclub part is not the weird part of this sentence. it’s not even the unusual part.
the big problem is that the swimsuit wasn’t actually released yet and had been modded into the game and - actually okay XIV’s devs have a weird relationship with modding specifically with discretion with modding because of - actually okay so have you seen any footage of high end World of Warcraft raids
how dare you be funnier than me on my own damn post etcetera etcetera
So Edgeworth’s shoulder width (along with other characters in the early games) has been a long topic of discussion. I was curious, and it turns out that on his front-faceing sprite, they’re 1.5x the size of his head. Now, for most people, the width of each shoulder is about the same width as your face, that’s one of those anatomy tricks that artists use to keep people looking, well, proportional. So I wanted to see what he looked like with “normal” proportions.
Here’s his in-game sprite:
Here he is with corrected proportions:
Like, he actually looks like a young adult here, holy shit. They could probably even be a bit wider than this and still not make him look like he stepped out of an early 2000′s yaoi manga.
And then, since I was already editing this sprite, the next logical step was, of course, widening.
And again, for good measure.
x2 size for easier viewing:
Enjoy.
it’s not always about the evidence, wright

As the year ends, I thought of making a summary of what happened this year mainly because I believe that I have not really communicate at all (life!), so for any person out there that cares it may be interesting to know what the heck that matias has been up to.
