Sometimes i forget the skill level of the past. It’s easy to get caught up in whatever’s current and new, but geez, some of those tricks are amazing even by today’s standards.

Shinobu… does he also go by NB? Or is that a complete different person? If so, he’s the famous Japanese modder. I’ve seen his mods and original designs before. Crazy stuff.
