We have reached out to Pwade3 while designing this and he wasn't against us posting the IC.
Speaking about the sublegends, this is just a personal preference, if there will not be sufficient interest, we will scrap it  :thumb:

Just feels kind of all over place, you know.
You’ve got tarot, which is of European origin; Hangul, the Korean alphabet, and your name references… loli… which is Japanese.
Glad to see another well-researched Blamby set.

I really don't get what my name has to do with it? I can surely get more in depth about this, but the Hangul idea was mine.

It really seems like you have a problem with the set designer.

If y'all just like korean sublegends, just make something with korean sublegends instead of half-baking a theme into it. Comes off as insensitive or fetishization of a culture that you're not even understanding.

my favorite part is that the colors in the set overlap approximately 0.00% with the colors in the tarot cards you posted as your "inspiration"

an actual tarot-themed set could have a lot of potential, but this looks like you wanted DIY GMK Tako and lazily filed off the serial number

This is just a strange thread. I'm not a fan of the set but it looks decent enough.

Honestly, the inspiration doesn't make much sense for me. Purple and yellow aren't really in many, if any, of the classic tarot cards (Raider Waite, which are the ones in the inspiration photo). In fact, the majority of the colors are light blue, black, cream, red, and bright yellow, with a dash of light green.

i would have preferred op to straight up just state "i fixed tako by adding hangul instead of hiragana". i dont care cover is jp, ina is korean. tako should have been hangul imo.

Haven't seen QW   RTY before. Is this a new layout?

novs look nice but care to explain the pickaxe iso enter? I thought that was more associated with Trotsky than tarot

colour scheme wise don't see a particular problem, don't think tarot is associated with any particular colour scheme anyway

What's with the numpad accent Enter having text+icon when nothing else does? also why isn't it the accent colour?

Spacebar kit has same bars as in base. Really confused and feels rushed. Please check the kitting renders.

this is funny but I'd say Alfheim is closer to knockoff Hyperfuse than knockoff Analog Dreams, and this set is even more similar to Tako than Thai Tea
