They say the Brujah are passionate, and well, this blood doll found out exactly how passionate they can be… commissioned @milanessa.bsky.social for this wonderful sketch page of my Brujah Niko & his blood doll (and sorta girlfriend) Annabelle :3 #nsfw #vtm #brujah #blooddoll

You used to be able to google the time of the sunset, and Google would give you the exact time right on top every single time. Thankfully, with artificial intelligence, you can now ask Google what time the sun will set and it will conveniently tell you "I don't know."

This is a great piece because the, "You can bypass the gatekeepers! YouTube levels the playing field!" proclamations often ignore how much these systems still hew to familiar inequities. To take nothing away from the successes of those breaking through.

So for now it gets a 3.5/5 for me, it’s not a terrible game, but it needs heavy improvement to justify the price they’re planning to sell it at. #paralives

I almost forgot to mention this as well, a couple months back I saw vampire fangs for costumes in a video before release; and me being a vampire nerd I looked everywhere for them in character creation but sadly I couldn’t find them, and it bummed me out. :/

I’m hopeful that paralives will get better as updates and patches come up but there’s a lot of room for improvement and it shows. Until there’s substantial updates that actually want me to engage in gameplay, I’m more than likely gonna use the game to take screenshots of my OCs.

Again I understand that the game is early access, but I don’t think it was worth $40 (and my husband brought it for me as a gift). $20-$25 would’ve been a fairer price for a game that’s pretty bare bones right now, or honestly mostly cartilage.

⁠- after a while the conversation cards get repetitive which is sad to see. - the fact that you cannot put away leftover food - building on a lot felt more frustrating than it should have?

🍉 Merlot @heartsdancing.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

Here’s what I didn’t like: - ⁠My para man’s body sticking out the wall as he did push-ups, the boundaries need work - How lifeless the townsfolk seem - Live mode is really lackluster - ⁠The lack of romantic interactions (which I’m sure they’ll be more coming) but you’d figure there’d be more than 5

🍉 Merlot @heartsdancing.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

- The photo mode is awesome, and the fact you can move your para around by simply dragging them is so nice. You can also select different poses too. - the art style is incredibly pretty and very pleasing to the eye.

🍉 Merlot @heartsdancing.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

- ⁠Character creation was pretty good in my opinion, even with the limited options they had for hair, clothing, and makeup. Layered makeup and clothing was sick. - ⁠I throughly enjoyed there was a lot of customization when it came to body shape as somebody who’s chubby myself.

🍉 Merlot @heartsdancing.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

So I played Paralives for a few hours upon early access release. I have som thoughts. Here’s what I liked: - The height sliders being (mostly) functional, especially with short paras interacting with tall paras.

They didn't die while serving in the military, but they died protecting our freedoms from those who would destroy them, nonetheless. Remembering these heroes on this Memorial Day.

Do you guys think Drifter ever turned somebody? Considering he’s assumed to be around ~600 years old it seems likely he would’ve turned at least one in the centuries he’s been around. #deadlock #drifter

Also Drifter & Beckett interacting with each other would be fun as hell to draw when I get enough practice in one day #vtm #deadlock

🍉 Merlot @heartsdancing.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

The thought of Drifter turning Venator into a vampire lives rent free in my head, and I’d love it for it to be out of spite/punishment too. Drifter turning the monster hunter into a monster himself. So good.

Despite not having drawn in literal years, since high school, I managed to pump out these headshots over the weekend. I’m really proud of these. #vtm #ocs #originalcharatcers #vampire #blooddoll

Seriously, why is that 99% of FiveM/RedM servers are plastered with dogshit AI images? Can y’all not be creative, use picrew, or learn to use photoshop? Christ, I’d say use your brain but half of these jackasses are probably using ChatGPT to make simple decisions for them and will get dementia by 40

To those creators selling out to EA’s latest scheme, you’re funding a company that was brought by Trump as well. Think on that and where your morals lie.
