Shadowbringers! ☀️🌙 #ffxiv #finalfantasyxiv #shadowbringers
A fanart illustration dedicated to ffxiv Shadowbringers! It shows the crystal tower in the fourth splitting the background between day and night. Middle focused are WoL/WoDs: Ilyori Korro -!: Ardbert. Characters in the background floating/falling are: the crystal exarch, Lyna, the oracle of light, and Emet Selch. 

Faded and bloomed in the very background is the realm system of the shards that is featured in the Crystal exarch’s meeting space, The Ocular.

I am so glad that Remedy have decided to lean into their 'every chapter ends with a song' calling card. And increasingly diegetic with each game, too! But I still can't help but hear "And now... the weather." in my head when one begins.

A single panel comic hand drawn illustration of Barret Wallace from FF7 gesturing disgustedly to a screenshot from nvidia's atrocious DLSS 5 slop that leaked, showing a photo of what was once Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is now a yassified Al model standing in a flatly lit Instagram environment. Barret's text box reads "We're killin' the planet for THIS shit?"

In Mario Kart: Double Dash, shadows in the environment do not follow any kind of lighting logic and appear to have been placed solely based on "vibe". This results in shadows being cast in nearly every possible direction at the same time.
A picture of Dry Dry Desert from Mario Kart: Double Dash with shadows marked. The shadows go in a variety of different directions at different points in the map despite there being only one light source.

A thought that keeps me going is that video games can run on anything. And humans love to play. Given those two truths, I remain hopeful.

After about 3 months and 300 hours, and I can confidently say that Final Fantasy XI is one of the most enjoyable gaming experiences I've had in YEARS. Been playing it with some friends from my FC in XIV, and we've done it almost entirely without Trusts. Immaculate Vibes. Highly recommended!

Was working on a shader the other day to implement Alex Charlton's "Hue-Lightness ordered dither", and results didn't come out how they should. I did, however, end up with these really interesting effects that I'm definitely gonna toy with more to make make them work with a more consistent style!

Today marks 250 years since a small group of newspaper editors, farmers, and soldiers signed a document declaring our nation's independence — a truth that feels self-evident now but was revolutionary then.
What a privilege us Americans have, to live in a nation that every one of its inhabitants can shape. What an honor us New Yorkers have, to look out over our city's waters from the shores where so many Americans bravely entered their country for the first time.
Today and all days, let us remember that patriotism is not pretending our nation is without flaws. Patriotism is every act of righteous dissent — because loving our country means fighting for the best version of it.
Happy Fourth of July, New York City.
