Hi, are there any transcripts or play through videoes for lovestruckvoltage games? The hearts are bleeding me absolutely dry.
Is their an October Daye series discord I could join? I have too much exciting things to talk about just having finished Be The Serpent!
I actually own the Hawkgirl statue in the background!
So I am replaying Mac’s route, and I looked around her room more and I noticed she had some figures and I looked a bit closer and thought I recognised one, so took a screenshot and zoomed in then compared it to what I thought it was. SHE HAS A GERALT FIGURE FROM THE WITCHER!!!!! The Witcher 3 is one of my favourite video games and I also love the books and comics. Knowing Mac is into comics and Geralt is known as The White Wolf, this really amused me. I wonder what artist sneaked that in and if they have been waiting to see if anyone notices. This is one reason why I love Lovestruck, their attention to detail is incredible.

Wouldn’t it have made more sense to make multiple tiefling figures based off the combinations from the table that allowed you to randomize your tiefling’s appearance? Having a wider variety of what one species could look like to incentivize people to buy a wider range while allowing greater creativity and not meddling with previously established lore.
If you’re wondering what the whole drama regarding tieflings is in the Dungeons & Dragons fandom: basically, capitalism ruined tieflings, and for once that’s not even slightly a joke.
Tieflings were first introduced as a playable species in Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition, via the Planescape campaign in 1994. At the time, there were no particular rules regarding what a tiefling was supposed to look like. The text explicitly stated that their basic physiology could vary wildly depending on what their fiendish ancestor was, and one of the first major Planescape supplements even included a table for randomly generating your tiefling’s appearance, if you were into that sort of thing.
This continued to be the case up through the game’s Third Edition. However, when the Fourth Edition rolled around in 2008, the game’s text suddenly became very particular about insisting that all tieflings looked pretty much the same. Some campaign settings even provided iin-character explanations for why all tieflings now had a standardised appearance. Understandably, this made a lot of people very annoyed.
There was naturally a great deal of speculation concerning what had motivated this change. It was widely cited as “proof” that Dungeons & Dragons was trying to appeal to the World of Warcraft fanbase – which was nonsense, of course; nearly all of the Fourth Edition’s allegedly MMO-like features were things that popular MMOs had borrowed from Dungeons & Dragons in the first place, and to the extent that tieflings’ new look resembled a particular WoW race, it was in that they were both extraordinarily generic.
In reality, it was a change that had been lurking for some time. Though Dungeons & Dragons is directly published by Wizards of the Coast, Wizards of the Coast is in turn owned by Hasbro, and Hasbro has long regarded the D&D core rulebooks as a vehicle for promoting D&D-branded merch – in particular, licensed miniature figures.
This was a bugbear that had reared its head before. When the Third Edition received major revisions in 2003, Hasbro corporate had ordered the game’s editors to completely remove any discussion of how to improvise minifigs for large battles, and replace it with an advertisement for the then-current Dungeons & Dragons Heroes product line. Implying that purchasing licensed minis wasn’t 100% mandatory simply would not do.
If you’ve gotten this far, you’ve probably already guessed where this is going: tieflings having no standard appearance made it difficult to sell tiefling minifigs, as any given minifig design would only be suitable for a small subset of tiefling characters. In the brutally reductive logic of the corporate mind, Hasbro reasoned: well, if we tell tiefling players that all of their characters now look the same, we can sell them all the same minifigs. So that’s what the game did, going so far as to write justifications into several published settings for magically transforming all existing tiefling characters to fit the new mould!
This worked about as well as anyone who isn’t a corporate drone would naturally anticipate – and that’s the story of how capitalism ruined tieflings.
The original Superman artist Joe Shuster was rightfully bitter about the huge financial loss selling the rights to Superman caused him and his co-creator Jerry Siegel. Joe was going blind while working as a mailman and living by himself in a ratty apartment.
He made BDSM porn comics with Superman and supporting character lookalikes. Some people say it was out of pure financial desperation and a case of lookalike art that caused this. Others say it was a jab at DC comics for all that they did to him.
The story is pretty interesting of how they found this out. I’ll try and find the article because it’s wonderfully written.
This is legitimately the most horrifying tweet I’ve seen in a long time
BIG NEWS EVEN IF YOU DONT LIKE DOLLS FOR WHATEVER REASON IF YOURE ON TUMBLR YOU NEED TO HEAR ABOUT THIS.
So back about roughly sixteen years ago their were to Bratz doll characters who fans headcanoned as a couple. Bratz and MGA have officially called them a couple and girlfriends for at least a year now to my knowledge.
The first ever queer couple fashion doll pack is arriving this month.
But if you don’t care about any of that you have to acknowledge that the Bratz fandom did what the supernatural fandom thought they did.
