there are many reasons why I will not be accepting DA points as payment for my services as an artist.

1.)  DA will take a whole 1/5 of all the points sent to the artist as payment for facilitating the transaction.  that means in order for me to receive the money I want, you'll need to pay nearly 1/4 again what I want paying for the job.  Where as the money charged by paypall to convert currency is tiny by comparason.  and many non US banks will do it for free.

2.) DA points are only accepted as currency by DA.  Where as, real money is accepted anywhere.

3.) DA points cannot be transferred back into real money.  Which because of Points 1 and 2, and the fact I'm not a paying subscriber and don't intend 2 be.  I would have nowhere to spend it.

so in conclusion.  there is no benefit to the consumer or the artist over normal money.  There is no reason for me to use it, and every reason to refuse it.

having played all the previous titles I have to say this one dissapoints.

to me, there are 2 core game mechanics to an Assasisn creed game...
1.) climbing
2.) stealth kills.

on this basis assasins creed 3 fails 50% of it's core mechanics.

enemies in all the previous games, while being rather trigger happy regarding attacking you, have all had a decent detection area.  namely, they had a detection cone and wouldn't be alerted below a decent distance.
where as III instead of having a V shaped cone, they have a D instead, and a MUCH longer detection distance.  This leads me to the conclusion that not only have they all had surgery to have eagle eyes implated in place of human ones, but that they also had eyes implanted in there EARS!

they also have above ninja hearing, despite having eyes in there ears.  because no longer can you stealth kill your way up the line of bad guys from the back to front.  because as soon as you press the stelth kill button, the all turn round to kill you regardless of any other conditions.  doesnt matter if none of them could have POSSIBLY seen you.  doesnt matter your still plunging the knife into there back with your hand over there mouth.  they all instantly know.

leading me to the conclusion that there all ear eyed eagle visioned telepaths with superman's reaction times.

ether that or Conner is being portrayed as the worst of Desmonds ancestors at stealth in the history of EVER.  which as he's a native makes absolutely NO sense.  because he would have grown up knowing how to track buffalo and similar without being detected by prey with much better senses than humans.


the gameplay styles of assasins creed 1 and 3 could not be more different.
1. taught patience, tactics and made you use your brain to achieve your goal.
3. teaches recklessness, linear progression and stupidity.


as for the portral of history it depicts.  I would say that it is highly colored by the American point of view with a spirited attempt to tone down that coloring.  so.  points for trying.  But it is still a distinctly Rose tinted American point of view.  it is worth noting I feel.  that at the boarder between canada and the USA.  the native Americans emigrated over to Canada (where the British troops were) in order to escape prosecution by the Americans.
But as there is no such thing in this world as truly impartial viewpoint I don't mind this TOO much.

in conclusion.  this game is more annoying than enjoyable and of all the games to replay, I will not be picking this one.  It is a game made for Americans to glee at being able to play in there "glorious past".  for the rest of the world.  it is a disappointing end to a great series.

movement at last on BOE.  page 9 has been drawn and inked and send on to be coloured by generous artists.

It's an A4 page (roughly)  and while this does mean that you wont get quite the same impact of a solid lump of pure unadultarated super cuteness.  You will get the same cuteness spread out over a more regular release shedual.  it is my hope to increase production to the point where were releasing one page every other week.  (irregular working hours / needy friends and other commitments prevent weekly updates from being realistically possible)

Time for an update.

well.  My computer was ill.  so much so it couldnt recognize it's own internal components any more. so I had to format it.  good news is this meant I could upgrade to a 64bit OS because to my surprise I had a copy of 64bit Windows7 as well as the 32 bit I was using.  Which will mean no more ram issues when doing art.

Bad news is this has meant days of bug fixing and comparability issues.  I will likely have to buy a new graphics card because the drivers for this one are TERRIBLE.

when I can use this computer for art again I'm going to be starting a new upload system for BOE where each scroll is split up into smaller pages allowing for much more rapid updates.
