Digger. Don't let the wombat protagonist put you off - not that it would in your case, this is more for the benefit of anyone else reading who clicks this and thinks "yet another furry webcomic", which it's not.

Well, personally, I've spent several years on a (now defunct) furry forum.

-snip-

While some preconceptions about 'typical furry' and resulting prejudices are well earned, 'typical furry' is but a statistical construct and being a furry is a lousy measure of suck.

Yeah, I was aware of that by reputation, hence my saying "not that it would in your case". Don't get me wrong - as I said about the asari stuff, it's not my thing, but I couldn't care less about what other people do to get off (unless it's, you know, serial killing or something); the only reasons I emphasized that Digger's not "yet another furry webcomic" are (a) there are a whole lot of really bad furry webcomics out there. In fact, the term "webcomic" itself had a stigma attached to it for a long time because people immediately associated them with poorly-drawn self-insert catpeople fucking each other. Whereas Digger has an anthropomorphic wombat as the protagonist, but the similarities pretty much end there. And (b) I remember there being a lot of knee-jerk anti-furry sentiment on these boards when I first started reading them (mosty directed at Jasede, IIRC), although I may have been mistaking Codex-style "gentle ribbing" with genuine hateful rants.

Extremely cool thing about the 36 Lessons of Vivec is that they are a palimpset of meanings - a single fragment of text has several different meanings depending on which layer you focus on, it's a distorted historical account, metaphysics, instruction manual of sorts addressed to future Nerevarine and even, at times, a collection of easter eggs poking fun at engine deficiencies of previous games in the series.

Yeah. It really is a shame that the guy responsible for them (I'm blanking on his name) has dropped off the grid, TES had some of the best world-building and attention to detail in the industry before Oblivion.

Now, so as not to draw this thread too far off track, here are a few more Bioforum posts.

Hey witcher!



Guess who NEVER EVER Releashed a game for a console?





Three guess and the first two don't count.

1) You say that like it's a bad thing.

2) "Releashed a game for a console": your words contain a wisdom beyond your intent.

How the hell is [Dragon Age's setting] Generic?

Last I heard, all witcher do is make things "GRIM DARK GRIM DARK GRIMY DARK DARK DARK"

and another btw , the engine of the first Witcher TOTALLY SUCKS , they need to produce a collectors edition to make a decent game.

Intentional irony, or just plain idiocy? You decide.

:lol: Gotta love the attention to detail, like how the ellipsis contains hearts instead of periods. If only it had found a way to slip in a mention of Nutella, then some Codexer heads would be exploding right about now.

So it's a good furry webcomic then.
Works for me.
:smug:

Freefall is good, BTW, blending humour, hard SF and philosophical ramblings.
It's very slow paced, though and sometimes degenerates into rather inane gags.

There is a lot of anti-furry sentiment, but it's not any sort of insurmountable obstacle.

Jasede thing was, AFAIK, mostly inspired by his self loathing which made poking him rather irresistible. Also, I dimly recall him posting some furry "art" once, which, in those gentler times, gave some codexers some mental scars.

Yeah. It really is a shame that the guy responsible for them (I'm blanking on his name)
Michael Kirkbride?

He seemed to be quite a douche, actually, but his ability to create interesting lore was awe inspiring.

I still can't wrap my head around anyone considering something so evidently dug up from the bottom of the uncanny valley cute.

It may be of interest to you that there exist artistic renditions of mythos gods and creatures in anthromorphic form.

Also, 'artistic', not artistic.

As you well know modern art is about the reactions it illicits from the viewer. Your disapproval has validated this particular example and added to its creative success.

If I immobilized you, then took a huge, juicy dump on your face, would it be an art?
Because I can bet on it eliciting strong emotional reaction (I won't wager on it being negative, though).

You are confusing unlawful physical contact with art here by presupposing all actions leading to a emotional response can be defined as art, using a false analogy with a vivid example to induce generalised assumptions. I.e. Dragons with large cocks arouse furries, therefore all furries are aroused by large cocked-dragons. False.
