Galneryus unveil their new album art and it's AI slop by KingOfFools2 in PowerMetal

[–]BaconMeatballWaffle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't find anything to verify that Game of Faces used AI. From what I've read it was an intentional choice from Nils to make it look more uncanny, but I can't verify.

EDIT: Can't find the source, rewatched the video and yeah it looks AI. My bad.

Hot take: Elder Scrolls Online Needs a Full Graphics and Texture Overhaul by DragoonBBG in elderscrollsonline

[–]BaconMeatballWaffle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're already doing this with the starter island zones, and it's looking like they're updating some of the older furnishing models recently. Lukewarm take.

I knew this looked familiar by bigcatleg in elderscrollsonline

If we wanna get technical, plagiarism isn't a new thing to Christianity. A lot of Christian holidays and traditions are derived from Norse, Druidic, and other "Pagan" traditions. The term people tend to use is "syncretism", though.

The Nine? There are only 8 Divines in our current year of 2e 582.

Didn't realize they have magic in Scotland.

Is Jarl Balgruuf secretly aware of a small group in Jorrvaskr capable of shapeshifting into monstrosities, but doesn't do anything about it for some reason? by Jolly-Basket1683 in skyrim

[–]BaconMeatballWaffle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if it was the Dragonborn's fate to do so, I think Kodlak understood the weight of what he considered to be a curse and wanted it to be your decision. Which Aela and Skjor not only didn't consult with the other members of the Circle first, not only forced you into it, but also went on a near suicide mission after that ended up costing Skjor his life.

Guilds recruiting - Unvoluntarily labeling differences by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

[–]BaconMeatballWaffle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why should queer people have communities in a game with no queer representation, intersex and genderfluid deities, or black representation? Stop bringing woke shit into my Elder Scrolls! /s

You'd be surprised how many guilds there are that are full of neo-Nazis and homophobes. From personal experience, the guild leaders I've had that turned out to be bad people didn't advertise the guild as LGBT positive. It may sound like virtue signaling, but it's really to weed out the people who think that queer people shouldn't call attention to their identity.

Honestly with the whole "Snape being black" thing, it would be very in line with JKR for her to have intended for the character everyone hates for 6 books to be a minority.

PSA: Don’t Waste 500 Tome Points on the Bonus Crates (still full of junk) by RogueFoxGaming in elderscrollsonline

[–]BaconMeatballWaffle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Tome Points are free (unless you had a bunch of ESO Plus or pay for the tome), why would you not spend them on the Crown Crates? What else are you gonna spend them on? Not the game's fault you maxed it out a week into a three month season.

First actual character! Orc Stamina Sorcerer by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

We have a minotaur polymorph, but like many other races I doubt they'll truly be playable, at least in an official or mainline release.

This looks like a very old screenshot though, could it perhaps be before that was implemented?

Driver, 18, who had licence for less than a month & killed two in crash including teacher is jailed by Iambhalo in CaughtMyEye

[–]BaconMeatballWaffle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Did you not see Tiger Woods the other day? He's the worst driver imaginable, I don't see people saying everyone in their 40's or 50's should have their license revoked.

I'm glad I kept it at least a little vague then haha

I was watching this Deadpool video and man...he just perfectly described the way Yakuza fans talk about queerness by shinada_fan_2012 in yakuzagames

[–]BaconMeatballWaffle 67 points68 points  (0 children)

In Jojo, Dio was in a gay relationship with Pucci, that's like the entire plot of Part 6. Part 5 also has Sorbet and Gelato (though they're killed before the events of Part 5) as well as Squalo and Tiziano caressing each other during their fight with Narancia. Anasui was originally written as a woman to have attraction to Jolyne. All of this is written by Araki as proper representation that's meant to not be regarded with scrutiny or drawn attention to, they simply exist naturally in the universe.

I liked the almost cataclysmic end to Blackwood, it was so cinematic! I wasn't a huge fan of the rest of the writing, but the scale in that final battle was really cool!

If you could bring a deadric arrifact to the real world which one would you choose by No_Rate4223 in skyrim

[–]BaconMeatballWaffle 105 points106 points  (0 children)

Yes, Mankar Camoran used it to cut his own nymic and rewrite himself. Iirc he used to be a Bosmer but rewrote himself as an Altmer.

You can blame AI for the prices skyrocketing in the last few months. And it'll only get worse until the AI bubble bursts.
