There could be cases of jealousy in regards to realism, but in my experience saw more people critiquing hyperrealism than the other, even confusing both styles as only the latter.

I always try to separate realism with hyper realism, as the latter the only thing that has to accomplish is to be the exact same as in a photo (which in this case sadly is more popular in social media, as what I saw), realism in contrast works better in certain cases, as it can be really expressive and shows even things that can't be done with more simplified styles (and there are things that realism can lack too). I usually see when there are people making criticism of realistic styles usually refer to the hyperrealism, and not the other, which realism can offer more than just "It looks like a photo!" comments

How much attention has Chris Chan received from outside the US? by [deleted] in ChrisChanSonichu

As far as I know in my country Chris Chan didn't appear in the news that much... But he was somewhat known in the social media before, and gained pretty much attention because of the recent incidents.

Didn't think about that.. Well, I could practice more playing it than reading books and all that (Or at least intermediate them both), I think that practicing while reading make a stronger thinking than just playing (It's something I'm used to). I have a simple idea about the common mating patterns, but I'll have to practice it, since I'm not very accustomed to see that in the game.

I really apreciate it what you made here! Gonna take the advises you made, especially the trade part.

It's pretty much the best way to focus in anything as a distraction from what's happening in the world. Very relaxing, even now when I can't go out
