hi I see your tales of vesperia posting. what is tales of vesperia those character designs look terrible (EXTREMELY POSITIVE)

THIS IS THE FUNNIEST ASK I'VE EVER GOTTEN BECAUSE I RECALL SHOWING SOMEONE TALES OF VESPERIA OFFICIAL ART BEFORE AND THEY SAID "those look So Anime" <- meant in a derogatory manner

Tales of Vesperia is part of a bigger series called "Tales", but each Tales is its own story, kinda like Pokemon, Persona, etc. Its a fantasy RPG series, and Vesperia in particular follows the story of Yuri Lowell, an ex-knight-turned-vigilante as he tries to help out the Lower Quarter, the place where he grew up in, since the empire tends to ignore the common folk.

And he gets the funniest found family in all of media which consists of;

Princess that the empire's knights mistakenly thinks he kidnapped

8-12 year old with a big bag and an even bigger hammer that looks up to him (and becomes his boss)

Prickly mage who is a child prodigy and is nice to only the princess and has tried to kill someone once in her sleep (movie-exclusive)

Most pathetic sopping wet old man who has zero to no charm and I think half his screentime is spent by other characters clowning on him

Elf girl who shares "flirtatious" banter with Yuri, except its just both of them just enabling each others worst habits and encouraging each other that crime is definitely okay

Pirate girl who is a PS3-exlusive and also she has a gun

Yuri's 5 times divorced ex childhood friend, a knight who is supposedly better at everything Yuri does, EXCEPT cooking

His fucking dog that he had since his time as a knight, which carries around a knife, and is listed as the worst cook in the whole party

Yuri Lowell was such a popular character that he had to be banned from popularity contests since he was admittedly the coolest main character that the Tales series ever had like. One of his defining characters traits is that he's okay with murder. Also the opening of Tales of Vesperia is set up to be like "song that the female lead would sing to the male lead", but no, the singer says its a song about Yuri and Flynn's (the childhood friend) relationship in the point of view of Estelle, the princess ..............................

One of the Yuri Lowell videos ever <3

A Letter to a Former Professor

Greetings Margaret, It's been a long time since we've seen each other, and since I've produced anything, but take comfort in that I am always finding new things to critique, I've taken great interest in a student from your VR class, known as Onofrey, from an article I read recently, http://iuhoosiers.com/news/2017/3/29/general-cuban-center-student-develops-virtual-reality-basketball-game.aspx?path=general&mobile=skip Who has been quoted to saying "It was more of supposed to be like an art piece at the end, but I realized I could make games." My heart went out to you, Margaret, and I can only imagine your frustration with having potentially lost another art student to the grasps of informatics, or worse, telecom,and I wanted to assure you that I have seen through it all, and this is still, in fact, an art piece at it's truest depth, and has potential to still bring pride to our DART family, Basketball is already a symbol of what could be considered the least gay sport of all, especially collegiate basketball,Not only is this artist using a "video game" making tool, which is already a male-dominated sphere, but it is using the medium to depict an even more heteromasculine medium of sports,Here she is quoted, "All my guy friends all had Xboxes but I’ve always loved video games"in saying that she has seized the opportunity to bring focus to women in digital art,and “It is really cool to realize that games like “Call of Duty,” had so much work put into them and it makes you respect them more.here she has realized that she too can create something that is within the language of these mainstream games in order to reach the demographic she is actually critiquing,By creating something familiar, she can earn the respect of the mainstream viewers, and thereby dismantle the medium from the inside, The artist must have known that as a woman basketball player and artist, this would negate the aggressive heterosexuality inherent in the subject, Not only are you placing the woman in the literal reconstruction of one of the most heteromasculine epicenters, but it is a place you can actually visit on campus,And not just any campus, but one of the gayest campuses in The United States, and here a crucial juxtaposition takes place, So in a way, this location is one of the last standing heterosexual spaces left, and she has busted it wide open,The place you can visit with your carnal body would not allow you to perform in the way that the virtual reality experience has enabled you,You can now place yourself in the epicenter of the only straight "Sanctuary" left, alone, at your own agency, without a team or a crowd, just shooting baskets,which speaks to the rise in sex positive feminism, and to the reclaiming of the vulgarity and taboo that is female masturbation, It has revealed the artificiality of this gendered state, and the infancy of the technology still does not allow for the suspension of disbelief, so you are at every moment aware that you are not in fact shooting actual hoops in the actual stadium,Bringing you to a sense of awareness of the archaic social implications and the clumsy technological future, in which we as women, queers, and artists, now infiltrate,The stadium here is the final frontier, and we no longer must be sidelined, or simply spectators to the heteromasculine characters performing in the middle,The capability to monopolize the entire campus, or even the entire city of Bloomington is within our grasp at this very moment,But it does not sugar coat the loneliness and independence we will find at the beginning, we must perform our own duties often with little support or role models alongside us, but we are here, we now see that the heteromasculine powers that forever distract us from our own narratives are as artificial as the texture mapping we see in this VR environment of a space we may all know (I have never been to a sporting event at IU myself, so I have not, myself, been in this space), but have never been a true part of, until now, and so with this brave and subtle move, she has shifted the power, using their language and symbols against them, and the ball is now in our court,,,,, Always remember, Margaret, that losses are simply ironic satire of what a loss would be if it were not winning in disguise, Hope you are well and enjoy your summer,

Long Live DART, Kay-T Critiques
