Ascension Sickness

Posted by Eva unit-01 on May 31, 2012, 7:32 p.m.

So guys, not much drawing lately, as I'm back in class for Summer semester. But I shall have some worthwhile soon.

Here's a simple little fan-piece I did recently.

Madhatter from the Alice games.

Yo so, holy shit like, The Binding of Isaac DLC Wrath of The Lamb came out a few days ago. I bought it a day after it came out, and started really getting into it this morning.

GWAAAAAAA, love it, everyone needs to get this shite, man.

Here's a few pics of my runs.

Me going against Lust. Due to picking up a new item called dead dove or something, I was able to just camp over some rocks, and shoot spectral tears at her. She couldn't touch me.]/i]

Later on in the same run, after kicking ass, flawlessly, I came across this guy in The Womb II. He mimics your every move, and only attacks if you attack, so it's a strategy game right here.

I beat Mom and Mom's Heart, and chose the ending over continuing deeper into the basement, which was a stupid choice. I had so much good stuff. Unlocked Judas though.

Here's me in my playthrough as Judas, who only has one heart to begin with.

I ended up pretty lucky, and got Sister Maggie, and two cubes of meat.

I also came across The Headless Horseman, killed him in no time, and jacked that fools ride, which is awesome.

Aw man, I love this game.

Oh, got these a few days ago in the mail too. The GoW3 COG tags, pretty awesome, but I had to knot some spots up cause the chain's a bit too long for my taste.

Yeah, she did a good job with making the characters more likeable, I hated Baird in the first two games, but he was pretty likeable in Gears 3.

What I mean is, the overall story I didn't like, like the ending. I wish they explained why the queen was a human, and where the locust came from, they had several chances to do so when Marcus found his dad, but Marcus kept interrupting him when his dad tried to explain. Also, I didn't like how they kill all the locust magically with some weak ass laser beam shit.

I mean, if it was that easy, how come someone didn't do this years ago?

oh, and tai should've came back as a super-zombie and killed everyone in the whole universe.

the end.

It's all in subtle details, man.

They couldn't do that years ago because the technology to destroy them was kept in a solitary secret island, housing the only person who knew how to pull it off; Marcus' dad.

He couldn't do it himself because well.. The place was obviously taken over, and he's an old man.

The thing was meant to kill beings that have been in contact with large amounts of imulsion, and who's been exposed to the most imulsion over an extended period of time? The locusts. So I mean, it makes sense within the context of the story, but I do agree it was a bit weaker of an ending than I would have wanted, especially when all it took to kill the queen was a fuckin' knife to the stomach.

I also wish they would have went into more detail in a lot of things, because with the Sires form GoW2, there was obviously some tweaking going on. Maybe there'll be a book or something, or maybe it's already explained.

Also you douche, Cliffy. You promised to explain how Marcus got that scar!

Oh yeah, and the Sires! completely forgot about those. Perhaps one of the things that needed to be explained the most.

JID 12 years, 6 months ago

but yeah, it would have been an amazing ending if a huge chunk of the characters died in the end.

for the sake of the game going out with a bang.

NOooo. The ending was perfect!

I think they had to make a sacrifice to make the ending just without killing off everybody. And that sacrifice was Dom, whom I never cared for in the first place, but I can't say it wasn't one of the saddest moments I've ever experienced in a game.

If they had of killed off Jace, Sam, Baird, Clay, or Dizzy, I would have been soooo pissed, because those are my favorite characters.

Marcus or Anya on the other hand, I wouldn't mind. Marcus is cool and all, but yea, whatever.

And nobody would even THINK of killing off Cole. Without the train to move things along, the story has no progress, baby! WOOOOH!

They'll reveal the new Gears fully at E3 this Monday.

Then on Thursday they'll reveal Unreal Engine 4, which I absolutely cannot wait to see.

Also, what the hell happened to Fortnite? Hopefully they'll show that off at E3 as well.

Also, everyone should've died in the end.

Cole should've had the most gruesome death, like a ticker being thrown into his face and exploding, just to piss people off.

jk

that would've been hilarious though

I confused Karen with Susan O'connor.

You haven't seen the images of Unreal Engine 4 yet?

Tbh I don't see anything all that impressive. And the new features sure as hell won't go into use on this current generation of systems, unless Epic turns back to PC where they honestly belong.

Not to mention I went back and looked at the tech demo for Unreal Engine 3… why the hell ahven't we seen stuff that looks that good YET?
