Quite frankly, i can't keep this anymore.
Yes, this will be a rant. If you don't like the FnaF series, do as you should and avoid this jornal, for rage comments without arguments will be hidden. But don't worry. I don't want these rants to become repetitive and redundant, so i'm putting all my thoughts into one and only rant.
I can't stand this anymore. I can't stand how EVERYTIME i see a list about horror games, horror moments or ANYTHING mentioning Jumpscares, i HAVE to find a Fnaf hating comment. And they always say the same things:
_"Its not a good game"
-"It relies on Jumpscares!"
-"It just sucks!"
-"Its not scary"
STOP THIS ALREADY!
Lets check the "arguments" one by one. "Its not a good game" can not be used as an argument. its opinion and opinion is totally irrelevant when judging a game. The graphics are very good and polished, the sound department is erie, silent and very scary, and it was all made by one guy with money directly from his pockets. Either way you look at it, thats very impressive.
"It relies on Jumpscares!" *sigh* People, understand this: Just because it *has* jumpscares doesn't mean it *relies* on jumpscares. Actually, allow me to also explain the "its not scary" argument too! In my opinion, horror can be achieved in 2 ways.
+You can put me either put me into a complete isolated area, where i have to find a way to escape. You can put a monster there, but hide it from me till its time to apear. You'll get me VERY scared that i don't know whats going after me, when its going after me or if i'm safe. it builds a false sense of security. those are the 4 keywords. "False sense of Security".
Or
+You can put me into a closed location and show me what the monster is, but also that i have BARELY any means of defending myself. That way i'll feel extremly paranoid, tense and defenseless. Thats the keyword for the other type. "Defenseless".
Thats how FnaF works. Has anyone who bashes the game EVER get on the other side of the computer screen? Its not scary when someone *else* is playing it! Me, for example. The INSTANT i started playing and that the night began, my hands started sweating and trembling, and even hitting the door switch is a challenge in itself. It works so well because you are in a closed location(which can contribute to a claustrophobic feeling). You know what the monsters are, and you know they are coming for you, but you have pretty much NO means to defend yourself, and even looking for them can result in disaster with the limited power. There coming, and there's little you can do to stop them. If you still think thats not scary, go play it and then we talk.
Another thing they say is that the game series are being milked. Three games, no matter how fast, is not milked. Each game adds new things to the sequels without loosing the essence. Pokemon does it too, and nobody seems to be bashing. Wanna know whats milked? FPS games, for example. Destiny and Evolve can be classified as beautiful dissapoitments: games that offer very little in fun and replayability, yet a lot of people constantly praise them.
People have even reached the point to saying FnaF has the worse fanbase ever. Really...? Don't make me laugh. At least no Fnaf fan has Raped young girls, unlike the Sonic Fanbase. Yeah, the fanboys death threat those who dislike the series, but EVERY.SINGLE.FANBASE does that! The Sonic fans, the Microsoft fans, the MLP fans. Oh! Wanna hear a cool secret? everytime you bring up how much you hate Fnaf and how its everywhere, guess what, you're contributing to the thing you so much hate.
Yeah! The fanbase can irritate you, but thats what EVERY fanbase does, so don't bash one without bashing the other.
As for the Fnaf movie, guys. really? It HAS potential for a movie with backstory and lore ALONE! Fnaf is limited to the style as it is because of Scott's limitations. Don't you understand that a movie by WARNER FRUDGING BROTHERS will END said limitation?! And judging something without even seeing it is, in my opinion, a terrible thing to do.

Hating everything you make: Another vent
Literally what the title is. It's a vent. Feel free to ignore this, I'll be fine by tomorrow or something. It's tough, you know. It's difficult to even put this feeling into the proper words, but it feels awful. You're working on something, and you've put hours on it and it just looks awful, hot garbage, downright mental torture to even look at. You can't even put into words WHAT about it is bothering you, but there's just something about whatever you're drawing/modelling/etc that makes you frustrated to even look at it. It's me lately. There's always something bothering me, always something that I hate about it. And that, combined with the feeling of looking at something and going "well, you wasted your time on this that could've been better spent doing something better" doesn't make it easier. Everyone around you improves 10x faster, everyone around you learns things 10x faster, meanwhile you feel like you've finally hit your max and that you're not getting any better after years.
New Year, New hopes...?
So, 2024. I confess, I've had increasingly smaller and smaller hopes, aspirations and plans for each new year. Let's just say that the period that, since 2018, each year has been increasingly horrible, but the nightmarish period that was 2020 to 2023, and the stress, the horrible experiences, feelings, surgeries and inner turmoils that happened during those 3 specific years...let's just say that they broke me, and I haven't been able to glue the pieces together again. So with 2024, I have zero hopes, positivity or good feelings for the new year, specially with Japan already going through a gigantic earthquake and tsunami. But i suppose that's not ALL disasters, at least with me? Christmas was alright, and so was a birthday celebrated yesterday. And something finally DID happen! At the last days of 2023, I landed myself an actual JOB as an AutoCAD sketcher!.........Yeah, ironically, I went to college for 4 years, studying a wide variety of programs, skills and graduated just last
Rising from the dead again
Wow umm The last time I uploaded a journal update was over 3 years ago. Certainly explains all the spider webs stuck to the place here....I wonder how many of you are still following me or have become skeletons by now... Guessing I owe some explanations? Firstly, no I'm not dead! (Which you'd know if you follow the fact that i'm still uploading stuff!) I swear I feel that i start all my last journal entries with saying that i'm not dead...But you're probably wondering: "But Battles! If you're not dead, why have I never seen any of your posts? Are you just a robot uploading stuff and then disappearing??" Well, to that I say: the explanation is quite simple, for i'm just not a journal person. A ton has been happening in the background, but I just...don't find it worth sharing in journal entries, or that nobody will wanna hear my thoughts. Yes, the reason for my silence is as simple as that. But since I'm sharing my thoughts now, let's get down to business, starting with content.
Battles, Where the fuck are you now?
So.....I have been silent. No status updates, comments, faves, barely even an upload of pictures! I guess i might as well go for the news.
-No, i'm not dead. At least last i checked. I've just been very busy, mostly with college stuff and also with figuring out what the fuck is gonna be happening with my life in the future. I'll be 22 in a month, and everytime I have a birthday, I can't help but realize "God, i'm such an old man.", and i need to get some sort of income before college is done OR before i become 24, cuz i'll loose my health plan and will need to start paying it myself. Complicated Bureaucracy that none of you either care or ne
