So...let's cut to the chase: I'm kinda done with DeviantArt. I don't have the time, energy or general interest to stay on this site and post things or fav new artwortk. In that regard you can say that I've outgrown this site after spending more then 10 years on here.


That being said, I won't delete my acccount. I have however deleted around 80% of the stamps I've uploaded on here, either because I don't agree with the opinion expressed on them anymore, the usage of more "colorful" language from when I was younger (feels weird to say that) and was a more "edgy", anti-PC, pro-GG chucklenut who thought he knew more then he actually did. Embarassing but I learned a great deal from it now as a more chilled and matured leftist fanboy...though some edge might still be there when pertaining to certain individuals and groups (hello conservatives!).


Currently, out of sheer fucking bordedom, I'm on Tumblr again (I believe they call this Stockholm Syndrome) where I mostly just reblog fanart, memes, ecchi stuff and the occasional political thing. If you are, for some reason, interested in following me on there (don't) my username is the same as it is on here. If you want to follow me anywhere else then sorry but I don't use twitter, snapchat, facebook, tiktok or other social media besides Youtube. However, you can find me on:


Playstation: EroPandaSennin

Current Youtube Account: EroPandaSennin

Nintendo Switch: SW-3809-5848-6956

Discord (which I barely use but still): #6976 and my username is the same as it's nearly everywhere else


With all that being said, I think it's time to leave. I won't bore you with a sappy speech but know that, despite any (old or new) differences, we had some great times on here and I will remember those days fondly. I'm still gonna clean this place up a little more so I will probably see and maybe even reply to any comments left on this journal but after, unless it's morbid curiousity, I won't be coming back...probably. Anyway, time to leave myself out with an appropriate and weeby song but remember: Live Long and Allons-y!

I...have not been spending a lot of time on here have I? Hell, I haven't been spending a lot of time anywhere online aside from Youtube.and the reason for that is...I just don't have any interest right now in doing so.


Maybe it's my age (god I'm 30 now!), maybe it's because I'm busy with other things in life (work and stuff) or maybe just a current lack of interest in art and the like. Whatever the reason is I just don't have the need to be on here as much as I used to. When I get back home from work (which thanks to the pandemic means I have to work more hours which is great for my wallet but not for my mental state) I'm busy with other things that I just forget about DA and Tumblr and...sadly, also you guys. You all know about the Great Hiatus of 2017 and 2018 when I took a long break from the internet (without telling you guys, sorry) and while I've come back and spend some time here now and again it's...it never felt like before all that ya know? Especially when I started living on my own (which lead to it's own can of worms but that's a story for another time) and had to fully take care of every aspect of my life I felt less inclined to be on DA. Hell, I'm STILL trying to figure everything out (I know that sounds vague but trust me on this) and it's been 2 years of...bleh. So...I'm taking a break from here and I wanted to tell you guys upfront so that you don't have to worry about what's happening with me.


I could just delete my account though. Would make things WAY easier for me but...the thing is though that...well, I'm don't wanna leave this place, leave you guys behind. I have too many good memories here and some of my best friends, the people that I truly consider to be family, have all come from this place. And there's still much I want to do here as well. Other things just have more priority, currently at least. Once that's done I...I want to come back and get this account in order. Talk with you guys like we used to. Hell, maybe sooner then later if I get off my ass finally...


I just wanted you to let you guys know that you...you ARE my friends. You always have and always will be. So this won't be a goodbye because I do plan on returning some day. Our paths will cross again, I'm sure of that. Hopefully when I've figured things out and got my life back on track again. After this fucking pandemic is nothing more then a bad memory...Damn, I really do have a thing for being dramatic huh?


So... to all of you. Asher, Giselle, Michael, Jason and so many more. Let's meet again someday. Okay sure, I might occasionally go to Tumblr out of boredom but that would be it. Take care of yourselves. You guys have me on Switch, Skype and Discord (I should really get a headset for that so we can AT LEAST talk that way) so if there is something important you can let me know (and I might drop by to check for messages) but that's it for now. So long, stay safe and thank you for everything.


The King will return....

That guy that most of you have been friends with for over 8 years? Who REALLY doesn't appear to be on here anymore even though he said I was gonna come back late 2018 (which I did but you know, the shit year known as 2019 happened afterwards)? Well the good news is that I am still here (just preoccupied with other stuff) but as some of you already know I spend more time on Tumblr nowadays (a sentenced I thought I would NEVER utter but here we are) but I'm not going to be able to do that as well for the time being.

Ya see, my nearly 9 year old Macbook needs an update to run Tumblr properly which I'm not even sure if it can even run that, let alone be compatible with it plus I fear I might lose some of my bookmarks *cough* porn collection *cough* if I do actually try and update it. Now I do have a "newer" Medion laptop...but that one has some "quirks" as well so really I rather just get a nice shiny Chromebook as a replacement because it looks similar to my Macbook but isn't some overpriced laptop that some people will buy without hesitation because it has an Apple logo on it. Or you know, something else that's good enough.

But for that I need money (this thing you can exchange for foods and services) and considering I have rent and healthcare to pay for nowadays it's gonna take some time to save up some money. Aaaaaand I might, just MIGHT also have spend quite some money on Collector's Editions of certain new releases (DOOM: Eternal, Persona 5 Royal, Final Fantasy VII Remake and Animal Crossing: New Horizons) plus my crippling Pokemon TCG addiction is always a pain in the ass. But, for the moment, I'm making a decent amount of money (because people have to stay indoors now so that means more stuff they buy online) to pay all of those off. I just wanted to let you guys know all this so that in case anyone was wondering where I had disappeared off to now.

Anyway, that is my current situation. Don't expected me to appear super quickly on either here or Tumblr (or not, I have no idea if fate wants to kick me some more or not). I do have a Twitter...but that's only for retweeting pony art AND lewds. I am a man of culture, don't hate me. But really, I hope you guys and your friends and families are doing well in this fucking pandemic that's currently ravaging the world. At this point it wouldn't surprise me if Cthulhu appears out of the fucking ocean sometime later this month because jesus these last three months (it's only been THREE MONTHS!) were something else. I mean I hated last year too but 2020 seems to REALLY wanna be in the top 5 worst years of my life REAL bad. But, I've never been much of a quitter so I'm gonna stay put. Hope you guys stay safe (remember to practice social distancing) and that the rest of the year is kinder to us all. I'm off to...

:iconmomotarosplz::iconsaysplz: Play more DOOM: Eternal?

No.

:iconmomotarosplz::iconsaysplz: Persona 5: Royal?

Not really

:iconmomotarosplz::iconsaysplz: Final Fantasy VII Remake? Animal Crossing: New Horizons?

Nah...maybe...

:iconmomotarosplz::iconsaysplz: Other huge games in your MASSIVE backlog that you keep adding on to?

....I'm gonna organize my Youtube playslists! They really need some work. And I still edit stuff whenever I can (or feel like it)

:iconmomotarosplz::iconsaysplz: Well at least that's very productive of you...

And my porn too!

:iconmomotarosplz::iconsaysplz:...You are a massive disappointment

So was Rise of Skywalker but at least I'm still better written

:iconmomotarosplz::iconsaysplz:...fair point I guess.

Anyway, (hopefully) see ya guys soon!

Now that I've seen Rise of Skywalker (which is uhm...COMPLICATED to say the least) it's time for one last top ten of the year and of the decade. That probably would have sounded more important if I were a big Youtuber or something but hey, an audience is an audience right!? But before that, a little update to my favorite games of 2019 list: 

#1: Splatoon 2
#2: Pokemon FireRed
#3: Mario Kart 8: Deluxe
#4: Luigi's Mansion 3DS
#5: Ratchet & Clank PS4.
#6: Kirby: Mouse Attack/Squeak Squad
#7: Fire Emblem Heroes
#8: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered
#9: Deadpool PS4
#10: Dragon Ball Advanced Adventure

And now for the Top 11 Movies of 2019! Yes I say 11 and also not my favorite (ignore the clickbait title please) because some movies I still wanna mention that weren't good enough for the usually top 5 and a few movies on here were just...okay. Anyway, the list is as such:

#11: Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker
#10: Detective Pikachu
#9: Captain Marvel
#8: The LEGO Movie: The Second Part
#7: How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World
#6: Godzilla: King of the Monsters
#5: Joker
#4: Shazam!
#3: Spider-Man: Far From Home
#2: Avengers: Endgame
#1: Dragon Ball Super: Broly

Short but sweet I'd say.

Or, as the title should be: games I ACTUALLY PLAYED in 2019 because let me tell you, while I bought a lot of the newest releases (Resident Evil 2 Remake, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Astral Chain, Link's Awakening Remake and Catherine: Full Body to name a few) I barely played ANY of them this year, with the whole moving/being kicked out of my old house, living on my own, holding down a mediocre job and generally not having a good time. I can safely say that 2019 can burn in a dumpster fire alongside 2016. Yes, I genuinely hate it THAT much!

BUT! I did still play quite some games this year, even if it wasn't as much as I could/should have. So the Top Ten this year is: 

Top Ten: 

#1: Splatoon 2
#2: Pokemon FireRed
#3: Mario Kart 8: Deluxe
#4: Luigi's Mansion 3DS
#5: Ratchet & Clank PS4.
#6: Kirby: Mouse Attack/Squeak Squad
#7: Fire Emblem Heroes (can ya tell how crap this year was for me when THIS game still gave me enough enjoyment to put it on here?)
#8: Dragon Ball Advanced Adventure
#9: X-COM: Enemy Within (kinda cheating as it's an updated version of the 2012 game and I just started playing but goddammit if I don't love me some X-COM and this lists NEEDS some more good shit plus the game adds a lot of new stuff anyway).
#10: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered

And now for some honorable mentions AND other categories:

Honorable Mentions (because they weren't AS good or I didn't play enough of them:

Crash Team Racing: Nitro Refueled
Pokemon Ruby
Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland
Kirby: Planet Robobot
Call of Duty: Black Ops
Splatterhouse 2010

Most surprising game:

Kirby Super Clash. Unlike other free to play games *cough*Fire Emblem Heroes*cough* this one, while I did not get the same amount of enjoyment (I AM a sucker for turn based strategy games and waifus) out of it it does the whole free to play aspect much better and less intrusive. Granted, the game is basically a giant boss rush mode but it was surprising how much time I sank into it (around 15 hours, give or take) trying to get higher scores and different kinds of medals to unlock more stuff. Yes it's also grindy as fuck but never to the same extend as FEH did and gives you enough free ingame currency to get you going for a while. It's not much but still a fun surprise this year overall.

Most played game:

Animal Crossing: New Leaf, with nearly 300 hours clocked in in nearly 2 years. Close seconds are Fallout 3: GOTY Edition (I just now started doing the DLC stuff after like 100 hours) and Pokemon FireRed (between 20 and 30 hours).

Most Disappointing Game:

Several in fact:

Crash Team Racing Refueled - a great racing game only smudged by those FILTHY ASS MICRO TRANSACTIONS! The difficulty could use some tweaking as well but the way you have to GRIND to get Wumpa Coins and how the Pitstop works irk me to such a degree that if I were to give this game a score it would be a 7 instead of a solid 8. For shame Activision. For shame.

Fire Emblem Heroes - the grind became TOO MUCH at one point and with the game CONSTANTLY giving me duplicate characters (not to mention the characters that are locked behind being only available in exclusive events OR as random 5 star characters, of which you only have less then FOUR FUCKING PERCENT CHANCE of getting them) just made me stop playing the game. Well that and they added versions of characters that may or may not be spoilers for their respective games which was also enough to put down the game.

I'm sure they added TONS more characters, events and other ways to earn orbs but I'm honestly just done with these kinds of mobile games. Now if they were to translate that japanse card game based on Fire Emblem I could still get my fix of collecting these characters WITHOUT grinding my ass of.

Ratchet & Clank PS4 - This is a great update of the original PS2 game with gameplay enhancements from the later titles and stunning, beautiful graphics that are nearly on the level of a Pixar movie but the game FAILS in one category: it's story is weak as hell.

Whereas the original had strong characterization of both Ratchet and Clank as they went on a journey that changed who they were and made them grow closer as friends, here we just have nice and friendly Ratchet meeting nice and friendly Clank who defeat the bad guy and undergo basically ZERO character growth. That game lost the original's bite and feels too "safe". Funny enough, while being a good game based on a movie, the movie is still drags the game down a few notches because of blend it's story is (and the mixing of CGI cutscenes with in game ones don't mix well).

If you've never played the original and you don't own a PS2 or PS3 then this IS a good place to start with this franchise but for anyone who's played the original the story and characters are one aspect you might possibly not care for.

Best Soundtrack:

"Don't get cooked! Stay off the hook!" Yes yes, the amount of played games this year was...mediocre for sure BUT even then, Splatoon 2's soundtrack is nothing short of being catchy, bombastic and headbangingly gorgeous! Songs like "Ebb and Flow", "Muck Warfare", "Nasty Majesty", "Shark Bytes", "Entropical", "Color Pulse" and so many, many more. It's no wonder that Splatoon actually got several concerts of the ground because who wouldn't pay money to hear this good stuff IRL? In short, even if Splatoon 2 doesn't seem like your kinda game I highly recommend you give the soundtrack a listen, if you wanna stay fresh of course! WOOMY!


And...that's about it for this year. Like I said, it was a crappy one so I for one can't wait until this year is over and I can start fresh with 2020. DOOM: Eternal, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Persona 5: Royal, Animal Crossing: New Horizons AND Resident Evil 3 Remake with a bunch of others. Sounds good to me! Oh and I'm gonna post my favorite movies and shows of this year as well but after Christmas when I've seen Rise of Skywalker. I wonder how that one will turn out...
