I really like how all of his criticisms seem to stem from a place of wanting to love these games and failing to live up to their potential. Like there never seems to be any hyperbolic making GBS threads on minor stuff for no good reason or wishcasting systems that don't exist, it's always "here are the ways the pieces already in the game could have been put together in a better way"

Yup! Always 1000x more interesting than 'look at how fail this game is'

You know, it honestly wouldn't surprise me if the RPO author was LGR's biggest fan boy. If the omnibot was donated as a gift, then at least it's in the hands of someone who isn't stuck in the 1980's.

I joke, but it's not like I've ever met the guy. Just because he wrote some bad fiction doesn't mean he couldn't be a mensch. (And lord knows I've wasted money on toy robots.)

As for the Omnibot itself, as much as it's mostly a slow and complicated RC car, the fact that it's eyes light up in time with Ice-T kind of kicks rear end. It sure as hell put it ahead of my old Robosapien.

Same creator, same art style and maybe same setting? Easy enough to confuse the two.

Hard to call it a scam if they delivered what he paid for. Animators are so chronically underpaid, that if someone did manage to jank 50 grand outta that doofus, then good for them.

That's what, 16.5 thousand per minute of animation? That ain't even that much! Each episode of Family Guy costs 2 million per episode, so that's like 75-100k per minute.

What I'm saying is, they shoulda held out for 60k.

$50k for 3 minutes isn't THAT crazy if the animator is based out of LA, and then factoring in the 'porn commission' that'd certainly elevate the price

i applaud whichever animator got that bag

oh the show exists, it's coming out very soon, it's just that it's a Amazon Prime Video exclusive so no one is going to see it

E: oh it's right there. I gotta say it's actually really nicely animated. I mean yeah it's cringe and all but it seems they got something for what they paid for

No idea how much about animation costs but it seems beautifully done




Also no idea what the cartoon is about and have no context because my phone is silent but: I wanna be kidnapped by the magic horny hotel witch, too
