Tch.

What the heck is a Construct?

I’m sure this is a question that came across everyone who plays PGR at some point. Are they human? Cyborg? Android? And how do they work, anyway?

In this post I’ll try to compile any information that I came across related to constructs. Bear in mind that I only play the Global version, and as such I will strictly limit and update this post accordingly with the Global release. I did however, discussed some of these topics with players from other servers, so some of the content for this post might come across as a mild spoiler.

Now, let’s talk about Constructs!

sorry about the lack of activity—I was on vacation!! thanks for the explosion of love guys!!

dimitri

goody two shoes here would flip out when you first suggested you sneak out together. “why, I—(Name)! that’s absolutely against the rules!”

you’re very convincing, however, and soon he finds himself sitting next to you under a tree in the courtyard, his head on your shoulder. 

you both talk much more frankly and honestly when you’re alone late at night. it’s not cute and cuddly like you might expect from a different couple. your talks usually consist of lamenting about past tragedy and teaching each other how to better look to the future instead of rooting in the past. 

around the seventh time you both sneak out, dimitri gets a little too cocky and thinks he can surprise you with a shiny new sword for you to use. his dumb ass tries to hand it to you and somehow fumbles so badly that it crashes to the ground with a clang that wakes up the entire monastery. you both…put your midnight talks on hold for a while after that. even manuela, who had gushed something about young love, has limits on how forgiving she can be.

claude

claude is actually the first to suggest that you two should sneak out. “come on, (Name)—don’t you think a little bit of rule bending is fun?” how can you say no?

in typical claude fashion, the REAL reason he wanted to sneak out with you isn’t anything nefarious nor promiscuous. he’s always every golden deer’s rock—hell, he’s honestly there for anyone who needs him in the monastery—but sometimes he needs one of his own. 

he doesn’t open up to you too much or anything due to his trust issues (you need to get to know him for a much longer period than <1 year to weasel stuff out of him), but he’s comforted by the sage advice you offer in response to the things he does divulge. 

claude isn’t really one for much physical contact, not yet, so you both elect to just lay side by side in the grass in front of the golden deer classroom, staring up at the stars. 

ok

NICE

hell ye!

no…….

yes?

thank you so much!

if i stand still for too long i start doing idle animations 

will only talk to people if they start conversation first 

my walking speed is too fast to be walking and too slow to be running

if you talk to me too many times i start repeating dialogue

if you do a small favor for me i will follow you around without questions

i will drop a lot exposition if you ask

sometimes i get stuck on doors

you may stand in a straight line from me holding a corpse but its more than 10 meters so i will not notice

In your head:

Trying to describe it like:

But last time I reblogged one ten/fifteen minutes later I got a call offering me a job

But I reblogged it because I was waiting on hearing back from the job. So there you go.

for all the artists following me

draw fast. it’ll look messy for a long time but you’ll improve faster than if you spend 4 hours on every drawing

if you draw in pencil and have a habit of erasing all of your mistakes, try drawing in pen or marker. i know it’s scary but it’ll help in the long run (i’m speaking from experience)

try different methods and mediums but don’t worry about mastering any of them, just have fun

if you’re not rich, buy art supplies from the dollar store, not the art store (seriously. i go through a sketchbook about once a month and i’d rather spend $4 on one than $15)

there’s no wrong way to learn. you can copy other people’s art if you want to, just don’t post it

DO NOT worry about having a consistent style. do not. just draw however you want

if you want to make original characters then do it. don’t worry about if they’re original, or a good design, or if they have an accompanying story. make sonic ocs. do it. it’s fun and it’s not hurting anyone

try not to kill your back. stand up and stretch once in a while

make a folder and save all of your favorite arts for inspiration 

draw from life. draw your dog. draw your teachers. draw your desk. draw your own hands (seriously that’s the best way to get better at drawing hands)

in general, drawing from life or a photo is better than drawing from a diagram

draw whatever you want. draw youtubers if you like youtubers. draw undertale if you like undertale. when i was a kid i drew nothing but shadow the hedgehog and horses. everyone deserves to draw what they want without being mocked, and if people start making fun of you, block them and keep drawing

don’t expect to get any notes at first. don’t let it discourage you. if you want validation go show your art to your mom or your friends or your teacher or your grandma

And I have seen many artists say that they don’t mind beginner artists copying their artwork, as long as it’s not posted online.

Once you post it, THAT’S art theft.

And besides, if you really studied art, then what do you think master studies are? You take an artwork from a famous artist and you try to draw it. I took a figure drawing class and our assignment EACH WEEK was to go to the MET and draw a particular statue as accurately as popular.

If artists didn’t copy, they wouldn’t improve.

He is nice to the lost new student even though he knows everyone will be warning the kid off within seconds of getting to school.

Loyal as FUCK.

His Social Link can be equally easily read as platonic or romantic and either way you look at it, his growth and his realisation that he belongs with his new friend is adorable.

Constantly trying to abort the F-Bomb, even when facing the final boss.

May not always get along with the rest of the team but god save you if you upset one of them where he can catch you.

Acknowledges that he effed up when he makes mistakes or goes down the metaphorical wrong path.

Carries out the plan against the first Boss not for his own good - and considering said boss BROKE HIS FUCKING LEG - but because of all the other people who were getting hurt and intimidated by the guy.

Repeatedly puts the well-being of his teammates ahead of his own in life or death situations.

And is then super confused by them being upset and freaked out when they thought he was dead.

HIS SHIRTS. I WANT HIS SHIRTS.

Shaped like a friend.

Makes an effort to get along with other people who Protag is friends with  when they hang out even if he doesn’t like them all that much.
