Alright y'all I've seen enough people complain about this by now it's starting to get annoying
Yes, we all know these two skin tones are exactly the same. And I'll admit, I was upset about it too when I first saw it.
So why have it? Why did they give us this useless skintone?
Simple, suit completion and server demands.
We all know that the skin warm ray is exactly the same as this new skin. But what some people forget, I think, is that warm ray is already part of a suit, and therefore can't be applied to another. What does this have to do with anything? I'm sure you've noticed by now that there's no default skintone makeup in this suit, which is something people have been asking for; dark skin exclusive suits and makeups.
Well, if they wanted to be able to give the dark skinned makeup and only the dark skinned makeup as the server keeps begging for, they'd need to be able to give it in the default pose version without it looking like Nikki's doing blackface or something. So they'd need a skintone for it.
So then, they could just make it a new skintone, right? Wrong.
If they did that, people would complain because there's a high chance they'll never use it again, like they did with the suits that go with hacker's secret and heart of ghost.
Guys, they're trying their best, here. But there's no way to give only the dark skinned makeup and have it versatile with preexisting skintones unless they do this, or don't give a default pose version at all. Otherwise, they'd have to go back to giving the default skintone as the default pose version and have the dark skinned makeup be a completion prize again, which many people complained about.
I'm in no way on the devs' side about a lot of things, but this one case in particular just feels kinda dumb to me.
Anyway thank you for coming to my TED talk. Please, let's just all enjoy Barbie's birthday celebration event in peace? This is our first ever collab, and we should just try to enjoy it. Having an extra "useless" skintone ain't that deep.
I'm so excited for the upcoming jam!! Will y'all be doing annual jams from now on?
I'm glad you're excited! I'm pretty excited too, hopefully it'll end up being an enjoyable time for all involved! ^^
As far as hosting annual jams goes, that's really situational and depends on a lot of things that we don't know yet. For example, I've hosted before, but the other two haven't, and it may end up becoming too stressful or unenjoyable for one or both of them to where they wouldn't want to host again. It also depends on how many jam participants we end up getting, how well what we've planned goes over, whether or not the time frame ends up being a bad one, if someone else claims our ideal time frame before we can in the future, etc.
There's also some things that are rather case-by-case. Because we could plan to host again next year, let's say, but if someone's schedule suddenly becomes hectic, we'd either have to work around it, host without them, or cancel.
In the end we just really aren't sure, because in a way if you change anything at all, (which you probably want to, to try and find the most stable formula to create a fun, low stress experience for everyone,) each jam is sort of like hosting for the first time, but with just a bit more knowledge going in.
It could also depend on the general opinion of the jammers on how well we hosted. If our jam finishes and everyone feels we've done nothing but create a trainwreck, then chances are low of us hosting again, at least until we can get a solid idea of what we did wrong and try to figure out how to avoid it at all costs in the future.
So basically in the end all I can say is "we'll see when we get there." Personally, I'd love to host a jam every year if that were possible, but it may not be, we can't say for sure, yet.
You said ham stuff tomorrow EST... What time EST?
Ah. The thing about that is, I'm not entirely sure myself. I'll need to run something past the other two cohosts first, and I'm not entirely sure when they'll both be up and awake and ready to talk jam stuff again. Sorry. ^^;
Shouldn't be too late in the day, though. And after tomorrow you'll still have plenty of time to see it.
Haven't posted in awhile so have a LN shitpost I borrowed @sciencetookmydoubts for
^^^ This
It's dissappointing because Daybreak is my favorite event. :/
Daybreak event scares me because the war isn’t even just in-game, everyone in the LN fandom is at each other’s throats for a week and it’s terrifying
Realized I should probably make a standalone post for this and not just update my masterlist because most people will not see that soooooooooo Four months ago my friend and I made a hetagame and I forgot to post about it until now!!! It's called Apple Butter and it's a small little Ukraine-centric game where you work on an apple orchard and you also make apple treats like pies and parfaits and stuff and sell them! And then you go and talk to the fellow townsfolk and also your fellow orchard workers (who happen to be ghosts!)
It's not long and it's just a small cute lil game that the two of us made in 14 days and we'd both be really happy if you checked it out!
Oh my god I saw this ad at like 3AM a few weeks ago and I thought I imagined it because I couldn't find anything about it anywhere
this ad though
Arson is the best party favor. Instead of BYOB parties let's have BYOA parties. They'll be lit.
No nice party without some good arson
We're getting another Barbie collab you guys
If you check the website just like last time (you can find it on the FB post) you can get reward codes that have this stuff:
Just like last time if you pull every day you're guaranteed to get everything-so no dupes with the special code rewards!
And can I just say real fast dOGGO
Okay but on the suits I looked at them and I'm excited? They look great and we're getting a mystery one too
Anyone else excited? I barely participated last time around and I lowkey regretted it so this is great-
I don't know how many people who see my posts know about Hetalia but uh I realized that the coffin item from the new suit made a nice background in my icon so I added it to my favorite set
Annnnnnd I just now remembered that my set is an attempt to make APH Prussia and that's maybe not the best idea to have-
I mean I'm still gonna keep it but yknow
