Mailbag #6: The Lumberjack Bear Game

Anonymous asked:

I’ve been looking for a certain bear-themed yaoi game. I can’t recall its name, but since you seem more than cognisant about bears in video games, I thought I’d ask you. I specifically remember one screen shot showing a bearish woodcutter. Ring any bells?

There’s only one game that comes to mind.

His name is Harry, and he’s a lumberjack in the game Meat Log Mountain.

Unless you are talking about a different game?

Dick and Balls Accessories For Soul Calibur 5 Character Creations

Tony Tony Tony… I don’t know how you do it.  This is the wildest Soul Calibur 5 submission I’ve ever seen.

BaraGamer Character: Bassineos

Oh yes, there’s more Soul Calibur 5 submissions! His name is Bassineós using the soul of Cervantes.

hetuurobscuur:

This is my SC V character in detail. Tattooed, pierced and ready to slash those nasty opponents into pieces 🙂 Based on myself, but damn, wish I just looked like him.

I think he turned out pretty cute, very nice balance of tribal tattoos on the front. Something I haven’t really thought of doing before was adding nipple piercings. Nice suggestion!

Love the scorpion placement. 😉

miniReview: Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

Game: Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
Publisher: EA
Platform: PC, PS3, Xbox 360
Price: $59.99
Notes: Even though the game is single-player, there’s an online pass in new copies, which unlocks exclusive quests and locations.

Gameplay:
The game is a single player, open-world, high fantasy RPG.  After the gorgeous visuals, combat is the best part of the game. There’s a variety of weapons (longswords, chakrams, daggers, etc.), and combat is based on timed button press combos and QTEs, rather than point-and-click attacking.

Standard RPG fare such as crafting, blacksmithing, socketing gems, alchemy, theft, and lock-picking are part of the game.  There are the standard 3 basic job classes (called Destinies) of warrior, rogue, and mage, with hybrids of each.  You’re free to change class as you wish, for a small fee.

Graphics:
Graphics are great, aside from a few minor clipping and bloom issues. There’s eye candy everywhere, from the character abilities and animations to the environments.  The game doesn’t shoot for realistic graphics, and the sheer amount of color everywhere makes Skyrim look especially monochromatic.

Sound:
Sound effects are typical for a fantasy RPG, and the soundtrack is on par with that.  It doesn’t necessarily shine, but it’s exciting when it needs to be. Voice acting is good, however your character doesn’t speak any dialog which detracts from the story.

Playability:
The lead designer claims that fully completing the game and all side quests should take around 200+ hours. The main quest is around 40-80 hours depending on your play-style.

Other Stuff:
If you’re looking for an immersive story along the lines of Dragon Age or Mass Effect, you aren’t going to find it here.  It doesn’t seem like the results of your quests have much bearing on the world.  The hardest difficulty level seems to be anything but. Character customization is limited to only facial hair and features, tattoos, and jewelry.  There’s only one body type.

Why is it Bara?:
Plenty of swinging big hammers, muscly monsters, facial hair galore, and the occasional big belly…mhmm.

This game has been having some buzz in the Bara circles, so it was only natural to feature it here! Enjoy the rest of the gallery with Grimace’s created characters!

Create Hunky Men in Kingdoms of Amalur

ultramooz submits his Kingdoms of Amalur characters.

These characters were created in the “Kingdoms of Amalur : Reckoning” demo on PS3, and it made me want to try the full game!

Sadly you can’t undress them more than that, but there is a PC version and the maybe some mods will help our naughty purposes

But as a special treat, Grimace has written up a mini review of the full version, check it out in the next post!

BaraGamer Character: Esau

The deadline for this contest is over, so any submissions received onward would be placed into the next contest which would probably start in the fall of ’12. We’ll probably start the voting process in March since there’s a few submissions not yet posted because they are tied to articles.

Here’s another City of Heroes character called Esau, a muscle bear biker. Wouldn’t mind being rescued by him.  😉


 

Adding Male Bulges to Soul Calibur 5 Characters

Tony submitted his Soul Calibur 5 custom character Arab Daddy, using some neat tricks to add a bulge and some extra fuzz on the beard.

Tony wrote: You know it’s very unfair the ladies in the game have an option to manipulate the breast size but the males don’t have nothing to manipulate the bulge they all look like a Ken dolls down there. So I guess we have to use our imagination on our male models.

The bulge can be made with an item located in the equipment section called Bottle Gourd and the beard with the Raccoon Tail. For the bulge you manipulate the Bottle Gourd thickness, length, depth, and angle. Once you are happy with the end result you go to the Colors/Patterns/Sticker section and apply same pattern to the underwear and the Bottle Gourd and presto!!!

 

We were scratching our heads for a while on how to achieve this beard.

BaraGamer Character: Steve

Tomorrow is the last day to submit entries into the contest! Here’s FrugTug’s Sim’s entry:

frugtug submitted: This is my recent character from Sims 3. His name is Steve, and I am pretty sure he’s gonna be a town whore – so mothers, hide your sons; wifes, hide your husbands! Generations expansion introduced hairy male skins, with insane levels of customization, unavailable in previous fan-made skins. I can hardly leave the character editor…
