I gave Bethesda a ton of shit because I hated Skyrims schizophrenic feel, poor PC optimisation and general monotonous in every way I played it. I praised it for its brilliant landscapes, and not too much else really. Take out the negative criticisms there, include a brilliant fluency between turn based and real time combat, and set a barely existant society after the apocalypse rather than a society still building it and thats how I view fallout. A non-shitty futuristic skyrim with an odd, but epic, 1950s-60s feel to it to some degree.

Bethesda, you have earned my respect now :D

Edit: If you wonder what I mean by PC optimisation, Fallout 3 doesn't have this problem;

Fallout 3

And just keeping up with social network sites in general (if Newgrounds can be called a social network site, which I dont think it is cause it doesn't suck that much) but meh. Tada, peekaboo etc etc.

Mass Effect 3 still sucks in comparison to the rest of the series, the Star wars prequels were much shittier than the original series, and FL Studio seems to lack capability to certain freeware vsts. But ah well, thats just complaining.

So heres a picture of nothing for your enjoyment:

Enjoy.

I know that what I'm likely about to say has probably been said already, but I feel it's essential to get the word out of the death of Edd Gould of Eddsworld, who passed away last Sunday.

Such a great loss :(

Some fairly significant spoilers below, scroll off now if you don't want to ruin the game.

So I looked up all the endings to this game because I decided I wasn't gonna get it after they released day one dlc with a significant character included within it. I don't want to pay full price from a game with cut content, so I looked up the endings online, and I was extremely disappointed with the utter lazyness, the sheer bullshit that EA and/or Bioware have decided to go for.

Now heres some spoilers from Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2, before I spoil 3. At the end of 1, you could decide a paragon or renegade ending deciding the life of the council and 10,000 people and whether they should live or die, and this had (from what I can tell) a pretty huge effect on the second game, and the way that certain characters view you.
I don't know the relevence of Mass Effect 2s ending in terms of how it interacts with three, but choosing to destroy a high-tech alien spaceship or hand it over to an evil corporation seems like the ending you choose makes an impact on the in-game universe.
What does Mass Effect 3 do? It gives you the same, shitty ending three different times. Basic spoilers; you sacrifice yourself, the reapers go bye bye and you almost kill the normandy crew (I don't know if you can kill them, I assume you probably can), but regardless all the endings are exactly the same, and I'll reveal them in the following paragraph:

Ending 1; Synthesis. You throw yourself into a big-ass beam, and your essence is sent into the reapers, forcing them away. You kill yourself in the process, and all the mass relays are destroyed.
Ending 2; Control. You tell the reapers to sod off, they do, you kill yourself in the process and the mass relays are destroyed. Starting to see a pattern?
Ending 3; You destroy the reapers, in the process sacrificing yourself in the subsequent explosion, and destroy the mass relays at the same time.

Bioware can piss off for that, no choice nor difference is made in the endings, so it may as well have just been one to be honest, would've certainly saved us a lot of time.

That cheap ending alone is enough to turn me off the game. What a load of shit.

There is a secret ending too, but it just feels like its there to be bullshitty and somewhat annoying to be frank. Its just some guy speaking to a kid about space travel... hardly an ending, in my opinion, it feels like its just filler, there to please some crowd of arseholes that I neither know of nor wish to associate myself with.

So the games incomplete as a result of EA bieng money hungry whores, and the endings are exactly the same because EA couldn't find the time to think of something better.

Well done, arsewipes.

Ah well, shame its shit to me now, time to go back to Gotham City Imposters, because that game is like TF2, but with Batman. Seems decent to me.
Way to ruin a good series EA/Bioware.

Doubt anyone gives a crap, but in case anyone on the offchance does, I've somehow managed to catch pnumonia in the middle of March, during a time when Britains weather is slightly less shit than usual. As a result, I've been off school for about two weeks watching re-runs of Friends on Comedy Central and I think its lowering my already damaged IQ.

At any rate, I should really get back to making music and finding visuals for said music, and on that note I leave you with this.

Learning instruments is good. Ukuleles are good. Learning Ukuleles when your about 6ft looks funny. :D

Seen so many open collabs with voice actors listed. And I feel legitimately awful for not being able to help you guys out. Unfortunately, the only voice I seem to be capable of doing is my own (stereo-typically British middle-class, with a slightly weird Birmingham accent thrown in) and seeing as everyone seems to want either more aggressive accents beyond my capabilities, or Japanese-esque voices like those of your typical translated animes, I'm kinda screwed.

NEWGROUNDS, Y U NO OFFER MUSIC COLLAB THINGS. (Cause thats something I might be able to handle)

After a meaningful post about Origin, I decided to post this :3
