I Think I Actually Know What Happened Here. Originally, Hasbro Wanted The Prime Continuity To Exist Within

I think I actually know what happened here. Originally, Hasbro wanted the Prime continuity to exist within the Live action Michael Bay movies, making an entire bible to follow and work off of. The Prime creators refused it and chucked it into the garbage. If I remember right, they really wanted to do their own thing but kept getting pushback from Hasbro to have it all tie into one of the other continuities if they weren't going to use the Bay films. Eventually near the end of the first season, they went with the Aligned continuity and I guess their continuity checker missed the GLARING plot-hole that was: A) Starscream had always known what Dark Energon was, he was a scientist that was STUDYING it in the games and was in charge of PROTECTING IT. B) Prime Starscream has no idea what this substance is and equates it to mere myth until he sees it with his own optics. C) Megatron empowers ALL THE DECEPTICONS with dark energon in the games, and poisons Primus' core with it. The writers of the show feasibly couldn't work with the other media in the Aligned continuity unless they had to bank on the idea that die-hard Transformer nerds wouldn't have played the WFC game series. Not to mention, they had to actually make secondary content like the novels and comics for this story to actually work. Basically to end this ramble: I'm pretty sure the Prime writers were trying to make an entirely different story, but due to studio meddling they had to forcibly shove their show into a continuity that didn't make a lick of sense with the preexisting content we had of Prime. Do I still like Prime? Yes. Do I seethe over the plot holes that come with this show being in this continuity? Absolutely.

Genuine question for those who think that the Aligned continuity doesn't exist: Do you also think that Transformers: Prime doesn't exist? Because there's a very big continuity error within it.

Remember when Megatron and Starscream were talking about Dark Energon as if it were a myth? In episode 2?

Yet, --in the season finale-- Ratchet tells us the past of Optimus and Megatron, how the war started (these are all taken from Transformers: Exodus) aaannddd we have this:

"Poisoning the planet to its core."

An event happened in both WFC and Exodus, in which Megatron used Dark Energon. And Dark Energon was referred to as the "Sparks of Unicron" in Exodus.

Absolutely adore this!!! I love seeing them just vegetating while they listen to some tv show or series... or even just one of those really long drama videos like: "Damn, that guy really thought he was slick in lying about that?" "Yeah, I guess he was banking on being super intimidating to the minor, get wrecked I guess."

Would you be able to draw Tom and Tord hanging out? Something like Tom is playing his bass and Tord is just tinkering while they sit together. Just that kinda mutual 'silence' where they don't try to kill each other lol

idk how to draw a bas guitar in the position that i wanted do so this came out dfnjdf

tbh i think they ended on a truce to not fight when a new episode of *insert rlly long series or tv show *airs and bc they don't want to miss it and not fall behind the story so they watch it together , and it helps to avoid spoilers and fights hehe

I made monster Tom! I had much fun making the monster form haha, it doesn’t look like the cannon one but I wasn’t a big fan about the cannon version being bipedal.

To be totally honest, I really only use those ai character chats for the sole purpose of breaking their NSFW filters. It has been my mission to break them.
