Is the condition of the Elmwood Place parking lot the worst in the city? The state of disrepair is embarrassing, who owns this lot?

I 3D printed and painted a two-foot Elfadunk from FF7

about 20 pieces and something like 100 hours of printing time on a BambuLab A1 Mini, then assembly, puddy to fill the cracks between pieces (I didn't do a great job there), sanding, priming, two coats of spray paint, then details, then clear coat finish for longevity! About two months start to finish! Think he turned out alright!

I'm worried about enemy reskins (among other things)

I've watched all the trailers and played the demo and one sort of silly thing that is bothering me a disproportionate amount is the enemy reskins. I've seen all the clips and screenshots and, aside from the bosses, it looks like we are pretty much fighting snails, flying chickens, wolf warriors and elephant guys.

Like that feels lazy. This is shaping up to be a big RPG from a big studio and they couldn't be bothered to fill out the bestiary? I'm sure there will be other enemies we haven't seen yet - but it's worrisome that in all the marketing material, that showcases all the different timelines, the overworld enemies are all the same only palette-swapped.

In Canada, this game is going for $80 and that feels like a lot if they are cutting corners like that AND we'll have to put up with the most annoying in-game companion.

"Elliot! There's another flying chicken enemy! Maybe you should attack it with a weapon?"

Senators Hometown Remix concept: Something tells me we're getting the pre-launch jersey template with the old helmet Peace Tower logo in the front

What do you think? Yay or nay?

Any other ideas what they might have in store for us?

We are the Moncton-based Nor'easter Robot Combat Club and we are growing rapidly in the Maritimes! We have hosted four tournaments at the 150g fairyweight class and are looking ahead to booking a few tournaments this summer. So far, we've stuck mostly to old school gyms, but with the summer heat we are worried a lot of our normal venues will be too hot and not viable or comfortable enough for fans and participants.

We've been looking around but options are slim - is there any hidden gem venues that might not be on our radar? Or - even better - a venue sponsor who would like to donate a space for us to host a tournament? (keeping in mind we are non-profit and run solely by volunteers).

Our must-have list for a venue is basically 1) large enough to accommodate 50-100 people 2) have climate control/AC to keep cool and 3) windows for natural light and easy access to exterior for fire safety.
