The Red Douglas

A thread of my art that I have posted here this far... ...starting with: x.com/i/status/20441…

Don’t get me wrong, i understand that the Traveler might have a preference in attire, but the fact that these skins were given in an AQ, with better models than the original, and we haven’t seen it in any story capacity since the end of Act 8 is actually insane to me.

every time gi's global fan base goes "why isn't miliastra dead yet?" "miliastra is gi's biggest mistake." have you seen what the cn fandom does with it? just because you don't know what to do with it, doesn't mean others can't.

@ubekeki So I can easily believe that Milaistra was aimed at a different and much larger audience than the one that I regularly interact with.

@ubekeki Yup. I have very little interest in Milaistra Wonderland and see very little chatter about it online, but I am also aware that being mostly in English speaking social media space means I'm not getting the full picture.

@James1292 @windflowerlia Well that's an improvement over what I would have expected, which is, "Ugh". XD

@windflowerlia what about Citlali‘s “hmm” about Ororon

this remains one of the most iconic voicelines in the game lmao

@windflowerlia Perfect. No notes. 😂😂😂

@_VERSAVEA_ @grimoireghostie Ikr? he even fits the stereotype of the quiet, moody bass player in a rock band.

@grimoireghostie the way he actuallu plays the bass

look … i am a MILLENNIAL okay. i know u all are young and hip or whatever but you’ll never make stop loving boys that look like they play bass in an emo band

Two type of rabbits 🐇

Scrying glass update just dropped #GenshinImpact #Mona #hsr #Asta

It is also the result of a culture that has, in the past decade or so, come treat fans as “special little guys” in the way you might pander to a toddler, talking about how things are “for the fans”, doing set visits, fan events and so on. Of course that creates entitlement.

Genq guys!! In the cultures natlan covers, does society and personal identity follow communal self or individualistic self?

@_VERSAVEA_ Though even in Canada that's the case with First Nations versus most Euro Canadians.

@_VERSAVEA_ Not an entire expert on this but from a bit of research back in University, indigenous cultures in Latin America are much more communal in their outlook than say in Canada or Europe.

Fun fact: Execs decided to fire almost all the artists whose paintings are a major part of this classic Marvel Studios intro. Artists who were pivotal in defining the visual look for those 17 years of record breaking profit. But sure congrats on the profits Marvel and Disney…

I feel there’s a cultural difference on how western vs asian audience view pantalone, on the western side i’ve seen him being potrayed more as a fem, as an asian he looks entirely masc to me because the four rings on his fingers is a typical engkoh-engkoh (rich chinese) look

@Bru_cesariana @algerianmizi Natlan didn't even put that much forethought into the issue, especially as seen in the clothing. However, that at least provides a framework for dealing with the issue in a narrative sense. (Nonetheless, Polynesian culture is entirely separate from Mesoamerican culture.)

@algerianmizi What if Sumeru was divided like Natlan? Six tribes or districts but each with specific cultural aspects

mixing cultures in one region isn't always bad, but it depends on which cultures. if it's neighbors like you said, it can be understandable — but when we see sumeru is SWANASA, it feels orientalist as even if they have similarities they're all VERY different cultures.
