Figured. In another thread I think both of us are on (or was it this one?) I made note of a dark/brutal route in a game - maybe you had seen that and it was occupying your headspace at that moment.

If you look at my sig now, you'll see a rotating set of 6 sigs representing three characters.
I made this in ezgif by saving off the six signatures to my HD and importing them into the gif maker, generated the compound .gif, and saved it to my HD. However, for some reason, the signature box will only accept a url, not a direct file upload from your HD. I sent my new .gif to the guy that created the other sigs and asked if he could add it into his list as a custom, but he pointed out that after I attached it, it created a url within F95 that I could use.
So, if you have several sigs that you want to use to create a multi-sig, do it in ezgif (or some other .gif creator), then import that into a message to yourself: start a conversation, enter your own name as the recipient, then upload the file from your HD; when the message finishes generating, open the .gif in a new tab, copy the url, and plug it into your signature using the "insert image" function. Since you've sent it to yourself, the url should never go away unless you delete the message or disable your account.
I redid mine as a message to myself just for this permanence reasoning - the sig creator might delete our conversation and that might make my sig go away. Not sure about that, but figured why risk it.
Because my new sig merged six existing sigs without editing them down at all, it takes a little longer to load - it's a 13.1Mb file while the others are only around 1.0Mb each. Not sure why the size doubled, but I'm not going to go back and worry about it.

Possible. I often do "200" things at the same time and end up making a big omelet with it all ^^

The size issue is probably something that ezgif does. I made my multi-girl gif in photoshop (use it for work) and it came out smaller than the sum of the individual gifs.
That said, thanks for the self-save suggestion.
Dude...I just finished the second episode of Dark
Dark's story is NOTHING like Ripples other than having time travel and everything that comes with it, a loud scary power plant that emits blue light, and missing children.
Yes, in Dark it's already obvious that

Ripples is in NO WAY a retelling of Dark. Naming the city Winden is obviously a loving homage, one that I seriously hope Jestur doesn't regret making, now that everyone keeps on saying Ripples is just a retelling or even based on Dark.
Maybe as I see more of Dark (and Ripples!) I will be proven wrong and I will have to bitterly swallow my nerdrage and log off with my sweaty scrotum tucked between my thighs, but as of now, I am fighting all of you with my mighty keyboard.
Some positive things because I am generally a super positive person
I can already tell that Dark is an absolute masterpiece. It is certainly worthy of tribute. What is exceptional about it right from the start is how effectively and efficiently it captures humanity within different perspectives and experiences.
But fundamentally, it is having a COMPLETELY different philosophical conversation than Ripples is. And the feeling itself isn't even close.
Dark (so far) is all about perception and perspective. Adult perspectives, adolescent perspectives, child perspectives. It is inherently about loss, trauma, secrecy, and the obstinate blindness of the human ego. It is about belief and disbelief, trust and mistrust.
Ripples is more similar to shonen anime than it is to Dark. It has two central themes:
1) How far are you willing to go for the ones you love? Can you understand and appreciate how they're willing to do the same for you?
2) Do your actions truly cause their own consequences, and if so, what are they? Does fate exist? How does one choose whether to believe in fate or not?
If Dark is a study of humanity, then Ripples is a study of life itself.
Also, Ripples is a love letter from a horny nerd written out to tell other horny nerds that it's totally okay to be a horny nerd, and that you should live your life fully and freely without feeling held back by what you enjoy.

That's because you only finished the second episode.
Nope, he's not. Now, it's been some time since i've seen it, but i think the character you refer to is a different character. Sure not who you think he is.
Retelling? Nope. Close inspired, yes. There will be much more connections then a time passage in an underground tunnel caused (apparently) by an incident at a nuclear reactor. Yet, of course Ripples is its own story. It would be like saying that The Orville is inspired by Star Trek. No shit.
It's not about being right or wrong, it's just a fun fact. No big deal of course.
I've liked it a lot myself. It has is rough edges and at a point i literrally was like "Oh! Fuck off show!" but it's sure a nice and well conceived story.
Yes, of course. Ripples is a fun porn game, but i think they are heading in a very similar direction plotwise. I'm curious to see where the game will go from here.
That's a nice analisys and i agree, but you'll find out, no spoiler, that Dark is also much more of an adventure show and a mystery show then just a psychological drama. They stuffed a lot of elements in the plot, and that maybe it's weakest point, if any, but in the end they menaged to kept all the strings together.

Yeah! I just started season 1 and definitely got the same vibe from the game the more watch it
Thanks man, that's interesting.
I'm getting some day-after-starting-new-show hangover feelings where I don't feel that strong a desire to continue watching Dark, even though I know it's really good. Which is weird, because it's the first show I've watched on my own in maybe 2 years.
But maybe I will in order to increase my comprehension of Ripples. I wonder if I'll share the same reaction as you at whatever the "fuck off show" moment was
I vented my nerd rage, now I can be more conscientious in my observations

Ok, this has to be one of the top "Best animations on a game" game here, the motion, the angles, the resolution, it's truly awesome! I don't know shit about what type of software does that kind of 3d modelling/designing but I got truly impressed with the quality on this one! Congrats to the devs, really good game!

Nice characters here, polished animations.
Time travel plots have a tendency to fall apart but this one seems set up well enough.
