Lara Croft is often compared to another adventurer: Indiana Jones.

Lara Croft could have been Laura Cruz.

Lara Croft’s large bust surprises many people. Originally, the adventurous heroine was intended to have a bust size of no more than a size two. However, while tweaking the character, a designer accidentally increased the size of Lara’s bust by 150% with a single click. The development team liked the result and decided to keep that look for the character.

And that's it! Thanks for reading, I love it!💕

Attention! THERE ARE SPOILERS IN THIS POST, IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE ANIME YET, THEN I RECOMMEND READING ONLY THOSE FACTS THAT WILL NOT BE MARKED WITH A SPOILER.

Today I will tell you a few facts about the Attack. The kettlebell forest!

* * *

Fact 1. The nationality of the characters

The events of the Titan Attack unfold in an alternate world in which our countries and nationalities have never been present.
Most of the main characters are Eldians. They are the only representatives of humanity capable of turning into titans and dominated the world.
However, despite this, there is a connection with the real world in the names and surnames of the characters. For example, a girl with the surname Akkerman lives in Finland. She broadcasts on Gwent, and she can also be seen among the casters of official tournaments for this game.

ceely

Annie Leonhart, despite her last name, is called Russian by fans. They made this conclusion based on the Slavic appearance of the heroine. Besides, Annie is Mr. Leonhart's adopted daughter, so the last name does not relate to her ancestry in any way. Elena is also attributed to the number of Russian characters, but with her everything is more obvious.  

  The British were attributed toErwin Smith,Armin Arlert, the Grice family, represented by Colt and Falco, Flock Foster, Peak Finger, etc...  

If you're interested, you can find dozens of similar collections on the Internet with all the characters of Attack of the Titans. I don't see much point in continuing, so let's move on to the next fact.

SPOILER ALERT!

Fact 2. It took four months to create to animate Levi's fight against the Titan Beast

  Arifumi Imai is the animator in charge of Levi's fight against The Beast of Titan, among many other scenes. He reported that it took him four whole months to bring this scene to life. One month was spent on the storyboard, while the animation itself took three months.  

Fact 3.

  When Hajime Isayama was just developing the concept of Attack on the Titans, he worked part-time at the net cafe. The people he met there served as a source of inspiration for some of his characters. InHe told the Encyclopedia of Attack of the Titans characters that he modeled the design of Mikasa's character with one of the cafe's visitors - in particular, with her scarf, hairstyle and eyes.  

Fact 4. Weapons

  Not only the UPM plays a huge role in the fight against giants, but also the swords that the characters use. The soldiers' weapons are made of special heavy-duty steel, the production of which requires the use of blast furnaces.  
  These swords are great for fighting giants, easily cutting through their flesh. Any other weapon does almost no damage to the giants.

Fact 5. The Secret of Hanji Zoe

  Despite the fact that Hanji is undoubtedly a woman in the anime, in the manga, at the initiative of its author Hajime Isayama, there is intentionally no indication of Hanji's gender. So, it's up to the reader to decide how he perceives Hanji.  

Fact 6. How did the giants appear?

The very idea of giants came to Isayama when he was trying to overcome a drunken visitor to an Internet cafe where he himself once worked. He was inspired by the gentleman's inability to communicate with the people around him.
He decided to bring the situation to the point of absurdity, adding to the insane state of gigantic height, crooked proportions and a frightening facial expression.

SPOILER ALERT!

Fact 7. Spoiler from the creators

In the second opening of season 3, the creators hid a hint about the fate of one of the main characters. Almost at the very end of the screensaver, we see the face of a Colossal titan, which is quickly replaced by a newly awakened Armin. 
  But the most interesting thing here is that for a short moment the image of a burned-out Armin appears in the frame, who sacrificed himself for the sake of victory over the Colossal.  

Fact 8. Somehow there are few deaths...

Initially, Hajime was going to kill all the heroes, with rare exceptions. But I came to my senses: the anime suddenly turned out to be cool, the manga became a hit, and it would be stupid to end the story tragically in light of all this.

Fact 9. What's wrong with the name?

The literal translation of the original title, Shingeki No Kyojin, is Progressive Giants, and it sounds ridiculous. As a result, the official international name was chosen by Hajime Isayama himself — Attack on Titan. And although it is not so much the Titans who attack as the Titans themselves, this option is still many times better.

SPOILER ALERT!

Fact 10. Another ending

One of the reasons why the finale of Attack of the Titans was so successful is that the creator of the series was able to make important changes to the script. In the original manga, Armin thanks Eren for turning into a monster to try to help the people of Paradise Island. This makes it clear that Eren was a martyr who did the right thing. That's not what Isayama wanted to emphasize, so he changed it in the anime. In the new version, Armin shows Eren love and understanding, but still holds him responsible for his actions and tells him that he will see him in hell.

Well... Yum-yum-yum... These are the facts I have found, if you like it, then I will make a similar post sometime. See you, as always, in 3 months. BB!

Cut content

• The game says that the Shooter's partner, Fang, bought special lighting devices from diggers. However, it does not say why. It is believed that the Strelka group was going to go through the dungeons of Pripyat. The location was indeed planned, but was eventually cut out of the game.

• After passing Limansk, before moving to an Abandoned hospital, Lebedev informs us that the vanguard of Clear Sky will have to go to the Dungeons of Pripyat. This suggests that the location of the "Dungeons of Pripyat" was cut out in the late stages of the game's development.[1]

• At the beginning of the game, when we are caught in an outburst, GG gets the task to "Return to base". Indeed, in the game it was planned that the Scar itself would make its way under the ejection to the base of the Clear Sky. However, before the release, this quest was cut out, and the task itself is immediately marked as canceled.

• A scene was planned in the swamps with an attack by a swamp creature on a Clear Sky squad. However, in the release it is played only occasionally near the pumping station. When a group of renegades passes by from the ruins of the village, a scene similar to the scene at the Agricultural Research Institute is played.

                                                  Interesting facts

• The introductory video shows how the Scar accompanies the scientists, the whole group is covered with an outburst, and as a result, the Scar loses its "Screw Cutter". This "Screw cutter" can be found in the northern part of the "Swamp" location, just remember what the area looked like on the video.[2] As can be seen from the same opening video, Scar was wearing a leather raincoat. However, when he regains consciousness already at the base of the "Clear Sky", he is wearing a leather jacket.

• On the basis of the group "Clear Sky" on the shelf (as game content) in Lebedev's bedroom there is a bayonet knife from AK-74, which does not appear anywhere in the game in the form of a weapon.

• The city of Limansk was created based on the real neighborhoods of Kiev, which were built after the war by captured Germans. The largest of them is located near the Chernihiv metro station. Also, there is a similar building on Ivan Lepse Boulevard, where the GSC office is located.

• In the Shadows of Chernobyl, the Ghost reports that Fang was shot by a mercenary with a "Screw Cutter" and a scar on his face. It is believed that this is the main character of the game — the Scar. However, there is one discrepancy: the commander of the "Clear Sky", Lebedev, says that he will send his guys to remove Fang and Ghost, and sends Scar in pursuit of the Shooter through Limansk. He also says, "We can handle these two on our own." It was confirmed by the developers that the Scar was supposed to kill Fang, but later this episode was cut

• In Military warehouses, in the village of Bloodsuckers, inside a water tower, in a Clear Sky, there is an iron staircase, simply welded to the wall. And in the Shadows of Chernobyl, the staircase is spiral, with spans. It is impossible to explain such a drastic difference, it remains only to assume that the guys from Svoboda removed the old ladder and made a new one to make it easier to climb up.

• On the ATP, above the arch, in the Shadows of Chernobyl, there was a sign "Avtokooperativ Lokomotiv". In the Clear Sky, the same sign reads: "Route registration".

• The base of neutrals on the Cordon was created so thoroughly that its condition in the Shadows of Chernobyl (bare walls and a couple of stalkers) is inexplicable. The same applies to the base of Debt in the Agricultural Industry, the base of Freedom in the Dark Valley, and the base of bandits in the Landfill.

• At the Cordon location, you can find a cache with a unique AKM-74-2 weapon. Judging by the name, the weapon assumed the use of an intermediate M43 cartridge, but in the game it uses a widespread machine gun cartridge (note that Kalashnikov samples for a cartridge of such power still existed — these are IWI Galatz and Saiga / Boar-308). Its appearance (the presence of a muzzle brake and a frame side-folding stock) also do not correspond to the name.

• At the Agro-Industrial Research Institute, on the basis of Debt, a voice is heard calling for joining the clan. This is the voice of the bartender from the 100 X-ray bar. But there is no bartender or the Bar itself in the game.

It is no less strange that the jokes in the CHN mention a Bar and a Bartender, which is essentially an anachronism.

• The game features several characters from the Shadows of Chernobyl. For example, a Hog is not a bandit leader, but just a bartender at a bandit base in a landfill. However, he can tell the player that he wants to create his own gang. Which he did, judging by the Shadows of Chernobyl.

• Not far from the anomaly in the Red Forest, into which, according to the quest, you have to jump, there are corpses of stalkers. Among them is Father Valerian, who nevertheless is at the same time in a very lively state at the Cordon.

• Among the quests related to the "Swamps" location, which can be found in the game files, you can find a quest to capture the "plant for the extraction of an abnormal substance from the bottom of the swamps." However, for some reason it is not among the list of objects in the game. But if we assume that this plant is nothing more than a "pumping station" object, then it becomes clear the purpose of not only the pumping station, but also the pipelines leading to the Agroprom Research Institute, as well as the dungeons of the Agro Industry containing a bunch of strange containers with abnormal acid. In the game, however, the authors of the game do not directly indicate this in any way.

• On the monitor screens, you can see a screenshot from FAR Manager, in which folders with models from game resources are open.

• In Limansk, in one of the basements, you can find a time machine from the movie "Guest from the Future".

• In the area of the Agroprom Research Institute, where the Debt group has settled, music from other GSC Game World projects is playing — Heroes of Destroyed Empires and Cossacks 2.

• At the location of the Agroprom Research Institute, on the basis of Debt, you can find a building in which stuffed mutants of all kinds, including a stuffed cat, are located. Although the developers cut this cat out of the game. There are also chimera heads in the form of trophies hanging on the walls in the Clear Sky.

• In the initial video, the main character has a tattoo "S.T.A.L.K.E.R.", but later it disappeared somewhere. Just as you can see from the video, the Marked Man is dressed in a "Dawn", but when he comes to, he is wearing a leather jacket.

• The prototype of the multiplayer location "Rostock Factory" was a real-life factory (with the same name) located right next to the GSC office. In addition, the old office of the company was located in one of the factory buildings.

• In all the works of the famous Finnish writer Tove Jansson, there is a Snork character.

• Absolutely all weapons in the games "Shadow of Chernobyl", "Clear Sky" and "Call of Pripyat" have their names changed due to copyright issues.

• At the location of Pripyat, above one of the houses (in reality, the Rainbow store) there is an inscription "1917 1986". In fact, there is no such inscription in a real city. In reality, "Glory to Lenin, Glory to the Party" is emblazoned on the roof of the building. Probably, the replacement of the inscription with the dates of the October Revolution and the Chernobyl accident was in favor of Western players.

• Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant (exterior of the station) — one of the first and one of the most reliable, in accordance with the real world, objects. On one of the sites, you can find out that the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant staff helped the creators of the game in creating this location.

• At the Landfill, to the Research Institute of Agriculture, there are railway tracks going into the tunnel. But the gap between the ceiling of the tunnel and the electric locomotive standing in front of it is so small that neither the current collector nor the contact network would simply fit there.

• In addition, the purpose of these paths is not entirely clear if there is a highway nearby. It is also unclear how all the railway equipment got on them.

• At the location of Pripyat, you can see houses from the Soviet era that never existed on the territory of the real Pripyat. For obvious reasons, the length of the five—storey buildings does not correspond to reality either - so, when comparing the map of Pripyat from PM and from the PO, there is a clear discrepancy between the length of the alley leading to the Energetik recreation center, as well as the density of the building, which is apparently due to the limitations of the engine at the time of creation of the location.

• Due to a flaw, the weapon falling out of the hands of a wounded NPC has zero wear.

• In addition, the inventory of an NPC's corpse has no limit on the weight of the contents. Thus, within a single location, it is possible to circumvent the weight limit of items in the main character's inventory by simply dragging a corpse with any number of items in it.

• The game has one "hidden" multiplayer location, which is not mentioned in any menu. This is a village of bloodsuckers from Army Depots.

Easter eggs

• The name of the vodka in the game coincides with the name of one of the games of GSC Game World, "Cossacks". In addition, the description of the vodka says that the manufacturer is GSC, and the logo of the game itself is painted on the bottle label.

• The description of some products says that their quality is acceptable or the shelf life has not expired. It is doubly strange to read, hearing how stalkers complain about products at every step ("And sausage and loaves have started to make crappy nowadays").

• In a Dark Valley, in the lair of a bloodsucker, at the very end of the manhole, a smiley face is laid out from cans as an Easter egg.

• At the Wild Territory location, in the tunnel under the bridge, you can find the corpse of Gordon Freeman, next to which in the container you can find a modification of the Black Hawk pistol for 9x39 caliber, and in Gordon's PDA you can read a lot of interesting things.

Interestingly, Freeman is not the only reference to the Half-Life game. The automatic shotgun, SPAS-12, which is one of the main weapons in Half-Life, is also found in the STALKER series of games (also without a butt).

• If you ask Professor Kruglov to tell you about himself, he will, among other things, tell you about his discovery of the species Antropomorphus Dendromutanyus Vulgaris. This is essentially a comic "scientific" name for Pinocchio.

• In the game, you can periodically find photos with the game developers. One of them is located in the locker room of the X-18 laboratory, the other can be found in one of the premises of the Svoboda headquarters. Another one used to be in Sidorovich's closet, but it was removed.

• On the Radar, in one of the caches, you can find interesting contents: a bottle of vodka, a pistol and one cartridge.

Cut-out content 

• "Wolf, the factory has been cleared, we are moving to our starting positions, the end of the connection," says Petrukha. In the old versions of the Cordon, there was indeed a factory (more like a coal-fired boiler house) at about the site of the Locomotive ATP.

• If you go straight from Sidorovich's bunker to the north, you can hear Sidorovich's warning "Hehe, you could have been in her place" and then about the flesh that got into the anomaly. Initially, the first quest in the game was to find your first artifact in a radioactive pit nearby, which is what this cut scene was intended for. The quest itself, for some reason, was cut shortly before the release, but the cut scene, again, it is unknown why, was abandoned.

• The loading screen of the Dump is taken from a screenshot of the old version of this location, sent to journalists in 2003-2004.

• Logos with the inscription "Will" on the basis of "Freedom" somehow do not correspond to the name of the group. But before, "Freedom" was really called "Will".

Actually, "Volya" is a hidden reference to the coat of arms of Ukraine (yes, one of the interpretations of the coat of arms reads only as the stylized word "Volya"), as well as to the events that took place in 2004 on the main square of the country. The slogan "Freedom is not spiniti" (Ukrainian), sounds in the game in Russian translation. This is confirmed by the song "Once we are bagato" in the resources of the final version of the game, which was asked not so long ago by inquisitive minds at a conference with Grigorovich.

• A deserter soldier from a trailer on the lake on the territory of the Agro-industry says something about the "Zaporozhets", which he repaired, but which the commander took away, rode and abandoned. However, the car is not in the right place. However, in the old builds, the aforementioned car actually stood at the northern gate of the Research Institute's territory, and a quest was associated with it.

• The description of the electra anomaly refers to the bluish fog visible above it during the day. The fact is that the description remained from the old version of "elektra" — then, in a state of rest (idle), something like a fog really hovered over the anomaly.
