VGCats? Oh man, talk about a tragic tale.
Aw, hell. Do I even want to know? Or is it no less deep than buddy scaling back to producing about one comic per year now?
Here’s the Reddit rumor mill, but it’s consistently with what I’ve also heard.
It basically boils down to his home life falling apart, him doing pornography (VGLewds) to make ends meet, the toxic stew of internet culture wearing away at his ego, and him giving up on any project almost entirely for the last four years.
Hardly the only webcomics artist to have a tragic spiral. The Sinfest guy also really went hard off the deep end and has taken to churning out some of the most nakedly fascist comics I’ve read to date.
I never heard any of that. His comic wasn’t super consistent but he didn’t charge me to read it so what do I care?
His site is still up for what it’s worth, I just checked.
HOW I MINE 4 FISH
Force-feeding a Bulbasaur Rare Candy until it got super buff was one of my favorite gags.
Saddest episode of tv I’ve ever witnessed.
One of the few things that always make me cry. I can’t even think of the dogs love, the music, the entire thing without choking up or crying.
for those who don’t know, this futurama was inspired by real life. it is really sad story:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HachikōIt’s funny, because I remember playing Persona 5 and seeing that statue in Shibuya Square every time I’m running to the train.
And then I visit Tokyo and there it is. Like getting to meet a celebrity IRL. Except it’s a statue. And there’s a someone next to it with an Imperial Japanese flag screaming fascist shit in Japanese. And at the crosswalk there was a guy with his dick out flashing people.
Japan is a magical place.
Guy with his dick out US: 😡😡🤬🤬
Guy with his dick out, Japan: 🥰🥰😍😍🥵🥵
Interesting, I always assumed it was Greyfriars Bobby
Very similar tale. Dogs are amazing.
Dogs can’t be amazing; that’s blatant propaganda. If they were amazing, I’d want another canine friend and I can’t handle losing one right now.
Sorry for your loss. I recently lost a friend too. Not mine but I still loved her.
Thank you. It’s been a few years. I’m okay but, much as I miss having a dog in my life, I don’t think getting another one right now would be a good idea for them or me. I’m sorry for the loss of your friend.
Honestly, same. I lost my own in 2019 and I’m still not ready. I know I’ll get another but the time will have to be right.
A story so sad even the futurama writers couldn’t take it.
i once had a cat follow me into the depths of a mine craft cave. I left him down there years ago and still think about him.
😭 😭 😭
Black mirror vibes.
I kinda did the opposite of this with Undertale.
I had the game spoiled for me, so I just played the pacifist route. Every replay, pacifist. I thought about doing a neutral or a bad route, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it.
Last time I opened the game, it was maybe my fourth or fifth time getting the good ending. I just left it there. Let them keep the world they deserved to have.
Yes, I know it’s a stupid and illogical sentiment. Bite me.
Dude you’ve engaged with the main theme of the game. Doing a genocide route is literally about how your devalue your connection to the game and become something akin to a psychopath because of the desire to extract as much content out of it as possible. Nothing to be ashamed of by not doing that.
I did normal first, then pacifist. I did 10% of genocide but it physically hurt me to do that and I just couldn’t; so I watched a YouTube playthrough instead.
Tap for spoiler
Flowey calls you out for being a coward even in the video for not being able to do it yourself 😂
Spoiler tag not working here.
Skill issue
The Wii Fit game (I forget the actual name) let you enter your pets and track their weight. Then they’d sometimes show up and run beside you while you were running or cycling around the island. It was a great touch.
I can’t fire it up to look. Our tabby that passed away in 2020 is probably still on there, as is our gray and white cat, who is not doing well - we’re at the “keeping him comfortable” stage. (He’s okay for now, he’s still a happy cat, but he probably only has a few months left.)
Fun fact: if you actually do this then you’ll turn the game on to discover your Nintendog ran away due to neglect.
Yes, I’m serious. Take care of your virtual pets, people!
I’m actually really glad you said that. It’s so much better than still sitting there or starving.
Couldn’t you just set the system’s clock to ensure that doesn’t happen?
Then you’re just a liar who can’t face the demons that inhabit the walls of your soul.
I can live with that
Balls. I hate feelings.
Remember to replace the batteries in your gameboy games.
yeah but first: do you remember where I could have put them?
what’s the deadline again?
The deadline was a couple years ago…
