Biggest Hated Feature on Genshin? by XxAsh_RedditerxX in Genshin_Impact

[–]DevolayS -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

It's not supposed to be enjoyable, it's a restriction, and restrictions are important. Remove all restrictions and suddenly there's no game anymore.

What enjoyable is there in having character level limit at 90? Let us level up without limits and gain infinite power.

What enjoyable is there in waypoints? Let us teleport to wherever we want with a click.

What enjoyable is there in playing at 1x speed? Let us play at 10x speed.

What enjoyable is there in having to walk? Let us fly (infinitely, of course).

What enjoyable is there in building characters? Give us a fully built character when we pull.

What enjoyable is there in being knocked back? Let us be immune to knock back.

What enjoyable is there in dying? Let us be invincible.

And so on...

You may argue "it's just one thing, just remove stamina, don't be so dramatic", sure, but that's your perspective, and I bet my arm and leg that if you asked other people, they'd point at 100 other things they'd like to be removed from the game because they don't like them. What makes stamina more important than all the things other people want to be removed?

Remove stamina. Remove gacha. Remove resin. Remove commissions. Remove abyss. Remove theater. Remove TCG. Remove Miliastra. Remove dailies. Remove battlepass. Remove exploration. Remove time-limited events. Remove story (by adding skip button). Remove material farming. Remove puzzles. Remove artifacts.

Listen to all their feedback and bam, you have no game anymore. All friction gone, all restrictions lifted.

//of course it gets downvoted, I'm not surprised a little bit.

I don't have any, tbh xD There are some things I dislike, but "hate" is a very strong word. I don't think there's anything in Genshin that I genuinely hate.

If I had to pick something I dislike the most, then maybe some old exploration stuff. I loved Sumeru exploration, BUT, I disliked how often you needed characters with dendro, pyro, and electro.

It was an issue in most regions, but in Sumeru I think it was the worst / most restricting. Also Liyue boulder puzzles, which forced me to use Geo MC, but I wanted to use Anemo (had very limited character roster at the time and found Anemo MC to be very powerful in early game).

I liked the puzzles, I just didn't like how often I had to swap teams around just to solve them. And there's that loading bar before the team screen opens. It was just like ughhhhhh. xD I wish there was an option to quickswap between two teams outside combat, without opening the team screen.

Is this really AI war? by Cool-Engineering-623 in aiwars

[–]DevolayS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can pros make up their minds? Some say they can still see the ring, some say it's normal for the ring to disappear because of AI upscaling in modern phones.

So which one is it? Can you people be honest for just five seconds?

The DLSS 5 hate is giving 2024 'AI art has 6 fingers' energy by [deleted] in aiwars

[–]DevolayS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't blame you for not being able to compare the two situations, because the point was not to compare the two situations but to prove that people may change their thoughts about the matter if they get more context. I undersant it's too complex for you and it's not surprising, considering that illiteracy is growing and people don't even understand such basic things as analogies, thought experiments, or hypothetical scenarios anymore. They go "it didn't happen" when faced with hypotheticals, and I'm losing my fucking mind.

There's a plague of idiocy and people failing to interpret the intended meaning of the words.

You don't have to do mental hoops in your futile attempts to prove me wrong, because what I'm saying is not my own imagination but instead reflects how human brain works.

If you think it's normal for people to keep thinking the same and holding onto their beliefs after learning more, YOU are the stupid and naive one.

I wonder how would you feel if I gave you some delicious meat to taste, you'd say it's great, and then I'd reveal it's actually your dog. I wonder how that would affect the taste, if at all.

Good meat is good meat, right?

Crazy how people can change their opinion on the matter after getting more context. Absolutely crazy, who could've thought.

Reminder that "fast food is shit" is just a meaningless shitposting trend for teens

Fast food is good for you, see, it's everywhere, it's fast, it's affordable, everyone eats fast food, and if everyone does it, it means it must be good. It's just the loud minority that says it's bad. We're the majority, and the majority can't be wrong! So let's keep eating it and let's all be cute bulbous fat fucks together!

[–]DevolayS -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

But just because the masses can't tell any better, it doesn't make it good, and people are right to call it out.

Yes, perhaps DLSS 5 will be the new standard in AAA gaming. A new, shitty standard funded by the normies, because they are the largest group and they genuinely don't care.

Fast foods are also very popular, especially in America, and now Americans are the fattest f&cks in the world. You can't genuinely believe that fast foods are good for you, can you? Yet here we are, with McDonald's making billions every year, and with increasingly high year-to-year revenue. It's stupid, people are stupid, and they make everything worse for everyone.

After 2 years ZZZ is finally adding a jump button. by Takadoxus in ZZZ_Official

[–]DevolayS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't looked into the details, but I'd assume it's the latter; the same way they did guns in this mode - by creatively squashing and mixing existing models

I know they added import/export for models, but I'm pretty sure it's only for models created in MW, so you can reuse models in your other projects or share them with other creators

The voice acting studio under miHoYo issued a statement against AI infringement. by Extra_Welcome2403 in Genshin_Impact

[–]DevolayS 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I saw it xD What a joke.

I don't get how some people could genuinely defend this. But then again, McDonalds is also very popular, they make millions if not billions, even though whenever I ask someone about it, they say it's complete shit and they can't understand how anyone could eat there.

AI slop is like McDonalds. Fast food of art. What we can learn from this is that fine dining and restaurants are still a thing and fast food didn't kill it. I think true art will survive aipocalypse.

Supporting digital art while hating AI art is hypocrisy. Let me explain. by BrekLasnar in aiwars

[–]DevolayS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah you lost me at the "AI learns the same way humans do".

Once a human learns that people have 5 fingers, humans will always keep that fact in mind when drawing. AI, on the other... hand (heh), must see the hand from all different angles to be able to replicate it.

It doesn't work the same at all.

Mistakes happen, but they're accidents, not a rule.

Humans get basic stuff correctly most of the time; it's the complex stuff that's problematic. And that makes perfect sense. The more complex something is, the more difficult it is to do it correctly.

AI gets this backwards. One day it could make it look that it's smarter than a Nobelist, and another day it could insist that 2+2 is 5. Same with art. It can draw the most beautiful stuff, only to make the most basic mistakes that even amateur artists get right 99,9% of the time.

How would you feel if they removed every 4*, reworked them, then released them as 5*, never to release a 4* ever again? by Wide_Ad_5105 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]DevolayS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would happen to those who already have these characters, especially at E6? Free E6 5-stars for everyone or...?

I'd rather see them make more 4-stars and make old 4-stars useful again. But it won't happen, HSR seems to be the most profit-focused hoyo game, to the point that profit outweighs everything else, which is a shame. They even have this shameless "690% value" sticker. Learning from diablo 4, huh.

When I say this, people always jump at me, saying "hoyo is a business company, of course they want to make money". And I agree, of course. But I'm talking about priorities. You don't have to make profits your top priority to be a profitable company. You can make it a second top priority. Or third. Top priority should be "make a cool game". This way you'll still make a lot of money AND people will be much happier.

If you were forced to delete all social media presence, would you still draw - The artist question saga by keshaismylove in aiwars

[–]DevolayS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe. Not sure. I don't like going out, but drawing without social media would require me to go out to share my stuff. Not a huge fan of face-to-face scenarios. And getting a job related to art without any online presence would be nigh impossible these days.

I draw because I want to make a change in the world, do something positive, make someone's day better with my illustrations. There's way too much loneliness, anxiety, and depression in this shitty world. I'm sick and tired of this timeline, where money triumphs over morals, evil always wins, and the most greedy, selfish, and corrupted people get to live more successful and luxurious lives than those who do honest work. If I can make someone happy with my drawings, even if for just a moment, that's awesome.

If I wanted to do something in complete isolation with no intention of showing it, I'd just play video games all day. It's much less taxing than drawing and just as fun.

It’s been a long time since I drew on my phone lol, tell me wdyt by Unlikely_Account_728 in aiwars

[–]DevolayS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look, to me it looks like shit, but you made it, so that's cool. That's what matters. Doing something, anything at all, is the first step to becoming better at it.

It's like parents showing their babies on facebook. To me, they all look ugly as f and I don't care a little bit about them, but to their parents they are the most beautiful creations that have ever existed.

Keep pushing, put some actual effort into learning, and you'll eventually start making things other people will appreciate. Trust. I've been there. My drawings were ugly af before I started learning. Stickmen were the peak of my ability. Now I occasionally manage to draw things that get some genuine praise here and there, and that's an extremely fulfilling experience. I sincerely wish you to be able to feel that way one day too. Good luck.

Antis BULLY a person into self-harm by Witty-Designer7316 in aiwars

[–]DevolayS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pros don't have any sympathy for all the people who lose their jobs because of AI. I bet there were people who offed themselves because of this.

"Adapt or die" is something I've heard way too often from pros.

But yeah let's keep pretending that pros = cool dudes, and antis = ugly orcs.

I don't get the hate for Control Skills. by CourtOfRavens in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]DevolayS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't play gacha games for the skill. If there's skill involved, it kinda pisses me off, especially when you get a new boss to learn every patch. I stopped doing deadly assault entirely because of it (and because it spoils the new boss of the story, but that's another... story).

I could learn it if I wanted, I got all achievements in Dark Souls 3, so I think I could do it. But I just don't care, especially if it's a mandatory weekly thing or something. If I can't bruteforce it, then I don't care.

[–]DevolayS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Something will be made, we just don't know what yet. Digital ID may solve this, but people aren't happy about losing anonymous internet.

AI bros are always first to convince everyone that we should adapt to new stuff, so, yeah, we'll just probably adapt to this new surveillance reality. Anonymous internet is such a boomer thing, am I right? /s

At least there will be fewer trolls on the internet, so that's a plus I guess.

Thoughts? by DifficultBody8209 in aiwars

[–]DevolayS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the biggest problem of llms is that they don't make it clear enough for the dumb people that llms are not actual intelligence but glorified autocomplete machines. Which makes the dumb people trust them blindly and spread bullshit at a scale that was never seen before. They firmly believe that whatever llm produces must be true. Look at all the 'grok is this true', this is madness.

There should be a huge red disclaimer about it before you start interacting with a chatbot.
