I want to say Mashu Kyrielight but I have a memory of the artist saying it was someone else that looked similar but I can't find the art post because I don't organize my pixiv bookmarks.

After that, they're also giving out a special cape to players who transfer as a reward for being an original MC player.
Man this will be the second time needing to migrate my minecraft account first was from minecraft.net account to mojang and now this. Man wheres my cape for doing it the first time.

Feels weird that original minecraft players are from alpha to 1.16 according to them. So me and my friends will have the same capes as newer players even though iv played since release 1.0 and some of my friends since beta. Saying that makes me feel old even though im only 20 6th grade feels so long ago.

All the blazblue games now launch video doesnt work in any of them. Calamity trigger and Continuum shift extended have a resolution problem on first launch but you can still see and get to the option menu to fix it. I cant get MF plat to install for some reason to get video in Centralfiction, the rest of the games use quartz from what i could find.
