211 - Direct, Work and Merch. (Patreon)

Hello dear bros. How is everything? Wonderful and peachy? No? Oh well, life doesn't give a damn does it. It just keeps going. Monday Posts are the same in that regard: no damn is given -- it's Monday so it's time for another post :)

The Direct. FE: Three Hopes looks decent. But I will need more information before I know if I want this game or not. The fact that this will be basically a reboot is weird. Also they only showed female MC. If they kicked male Byleth out of the story I will be skipping the game for sure.

Xenoblade 3 looks bad. Character design reminded me of Scarlet Nexus characters: bland, uninspired and sterile. I can say right away that I won't be playing XC3. All I hear on the web is how happy everyone is that XC3 is not fanservicy like the first two games were, but we will see what the sales numbers will look like when the game is out.

The rest. All the other games featured on the direct we alright. A lot of old remakes and re-releases which is always good in my book. (Chrono Cross ^_^).  Mario Strikers looks interesting. But all in all there were no games for me to get excited about. Which is a good thing this time since I can't spend too much money on games anymore.

The merch. First half of this week was spent on designing t-shirts and looking for a store to sell them with. Majority of the stores I have checked looked so normie it's scary. Eventually I settled on SharkRobot since they seem pretty lax and already feature stuff by Dmitrys and Shadaman. But when I contacted the site they replied with: "Thank you for your interest in our store, but we will have to pass." So that's that.

After that I contacted another store and they made an online appointment for me with one of their managers next week. Yeah, this time I will be the one passing I think. All this official shit always makes my blood curl, so if I can avoid it, I will. 

Eventually I decided to go with Teespring. Seems like another normie website, but maybe if I keep the designs safe they won't kick me. At least I didn't have to do a fucking Skype interview just so that I could open and account there. 

All in all the merch thing proved to be extremely tiresome for me. All I want is work on my games T_T. But in any case, here is my website: https://akabur.creator-spring.com  If you feel like supporting me, you know what to do.

The work. I am back to writing. Working on Iris' story arc. It will be a lengthy one so it's probably gonna be a while before I get back to drawing again.

That is all. Thank you for your support.
