original piece is so much better. actually kind of funny how much it missed the artistic intention. especially that stairway of the prince vs enemy, enemy arched high, blades raised in cautious glory. the princess in the back as the goal, being seized in all directions by the illustrious passage of time.

You can tell by his typing he's an Asian esl. Leave him to his seething about Western shit even though he worships it. He'll swear anime girl faces on men is superior, while he is playing games about knights in faux Europe settings and jerking off over the inclusion of an overpowered ninja character like "ya, das rite....we there too"

The weapons are not even the same type or proportion, and the clothes are all weird. It's like someone described the game to him and he did his best without actually looking a the game ever.

Which is actually pretty good, but still looks weird.
