hey so why the fuck is princess lexa from the oathbound reality now???
(long post of me just kind of rambling)
so. lexa. right? (and also orin i guess this is about him too but i dont care about him at all sorry) she was the first fully original cel shaded skin (not counting cel shaded optional styles) it was their first real attempt at it so they looked kind of clunky and strange. which is like. understandable yeah sure. she (and orin also) come from some reality in which they are implied to be robots or cyborgs or whatever, specifically referring to someone as their “father.” its also implied lexa escaped wherever she came from and orin was sent to retrieve/rescue her. they were clearly trying to go for some kind of “anime girl thats secretly a sadistic killer robot” thing. and so their home universe is just kind of implied to be a cel shaded anime universe (similarly to other, non-original anime skins)
right. ok. so. WHY IS PRINCESS LEXA????????? NOT CEL SHADED ANYMORE?????? HUH???????????????????
this shit has fr been bothering me since she was revealed. how did that happen. what. AND THEN HER DIALOGUE WITH OTHER CHARACTERS WAS SHOWN AND SHE IS APPARENTLY FROM THE OATHBOUND MEDIEVAL REALITY NOW????????? HUH????????????????? like. i just cant stop thinking about it. and then i started thinking about it more in depth. and now im just wondering. can spending time in a reality that is not your original one (in fortnite canon at least) literally alter your fundamental appearance like that??? like. ok hear me out.
the anime legends pack. is something that released during c3s4. and it involves three random, relatively recognizable fortnite characters... becoming cel shaded
(for simplicity i’m only showing midas)
so this is something that already HAD been shown to be possible? an already existing character’s snapshot becoming cel shaded when they were not originally that way. except this also isnt the first time a previously cel shaded anime skin has gotten the ability to become un-cel shaded. the "Wish, Set, Match” quest pack from this same season also had erisa (cel shaded skin from c4s2 who is a cat princess) in a tennis outfit and also with the option to just. NOT be cel shaded. (cant find a good render that is non cel shaded but trust me it exists)
except this also ALSO isnt the first time they did this for a cel shaded anime-implied skin. because thats what they did with the academy champions set
WHICH, HEY, COMPLETELY UNRELATED TANGENT BUT: THE FUCKING ACADEMY?????????? AS IN. THE ACADEMY THAT LENOX ROSE (C3S4) IS LITERALLY STATED TO HAVE “ESCAPED” FROM????????? MULTIPLE TIMES OVER??????? NOT ONLY IN HER VERY OWN BIO BUT ALSO BY MULTIPLE NPC DIALOGUES FROM THE SEASON????? she is literally a character from some kind of television show that was putting her in danger, only referred to as “the academy.” and how she’s “The first to escape The Academy... But not the last.” (direct quote from her description) and then these mfs just come on out as the “academy champions”?????????????? what does that mean????????????? what does it mean to be the champion of this implied danganronpa ass anime show????? how did they escape???? what the fuck?? god i wish they had done literally anything with this
anyways. i dont know what my conclusion is. uh. so yeah i guess snapshots can just kind of Become cel shaded or Not cel shaded anymore. this has a lot of implications and i REALLY WISH THEY’D DO ANYTHING WITH SNAPSHOT LORE BEYOND JONESY!! im not even going to get into how much i’ve been obsessing over cuddle team leader/syd and her countless snapshots and the implications of ragsy or cuddle team master more than possibly being from mega city ANYWAYS I’M GETTING OFF TRACK! i need more people to talk about this kind of stuff with </3
the way fortnite stopped doing narrated battle pass/season gameplay trailers right as imagined and origin were introduced.. imagine a proper c3s2 bp trailer with imagined or origin narrating, a c3s4 gameplay trailer with herald narrating, a c4s1 gameplay trailer with ageless narrating but NOOOO
The Herald is the child of Midas and The Cube Queen in the deep future. After The Cube Queen and The Origin broke up, The Cube Queen got together with Midas where they had a child AKA The Herald. That is why The Herald could control chrome/chrome touch. She came to the past (C3s4) to destroy the island, as ordered to by her mother.
New Fortnite Season called Vibin might be 120 days but everyone I've talked too has seemed so Luke warm on the new battlepass skins that the Last 2 have to be godly to stretch things out enough or people arent gonna wanna grind for them...C3S1 set the bar SO high with the skins I'm so sorry Darth Vader you can't beat Spiderman in terms of excitement. I'm so tired of battlepass crossover skins and especially Disney battlepass crossovers. If I wanted Darth Vader I'd buy him.
I mean, like, we've gotten at least one a pass since the Marvel season with Mando, Laura Croft, Rick and Gugimon (who came with a million different backblings so that was cool I guess) (with Naymar JR this season I think) , Ugly ass Carnage, Spiderman, and last season we got Prowler and Dr. Strange. I don't see anyone use these so they feel more like filler (except for Spiderman+Strange if I get killed by one more of these guys I'm gonna give up lol).
If we get both Darth Vader and Indiana Jones as the lvl 100 and bonus? I'm gonna be so sad man I want to get excited for those. And I LOVE Indiana Jones it's just I don't want him on my battlepass man. Especially with the rumored Han Solo skin coming right after he leaves the pass in late October I just don't want people giving disney anymore money and if they're ON the battlepass I'm sure some funds go to them.
I like fortnite and want to see its creative stuff and if this is just a long season boring season to work on stuff to come in C3S4 I'm gonna be so sad...especially after such a hyped end event like this season. But uh the Zeropoint doomsday machine exploding potentially gave us at least one poi but I hope the whole center of the map shifts for us bc there's been next to no change all year.
ENG: if this player was a bot, he builds better than me, I don't pretty sure, the only thing I know is that the fireflies always take out any of the constructions. A little fire is all I need to make some kills.
ESP: Sí este jugador fue un bot, créanme cuando los digo que construye mejor que yo, pero no estoy segura si era o no un bot, de lo único de lo que estoy segura es que las luciérnagas sacan a cualquiera de sus construcciones. Lo único que necesito es un poco de fuego para hacer algunas kills.
