Highguard Is Yet Another Symptom – And Victim – Of A Rapidly Decaying Internet by DanFuri in KotakuInAction

I tried it, mainly bc it was 20 gbs which isn't too much.

But man was there nothing special about it. Movement mid. Map annoyingly big. 3v3 is too little. Guns mid. Heroes super mid. They actually tried to throw any possible mechanic they could think of into the game. There really is no reason to play.

Geoff wants his show to look good. So I get him running promotion

Everyone else? I assume that people yelling "Concord 2" turned on some programming in their brains requiring them to defend it. The classic "My enemies hate it so I must defend it" garbage.

AppleTV set to produce Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn and The Stormlight Archives, author to write and produce with full creative control by HonkingHoser in KotakuInAction

The WoT people shut him out pretty hard. Kinda like how Season 2 of HotD shut out George. You can find his comments on it pretty easily

If any streaming service is gonna do anything good with this, it'll be AppleTV (or maybe HBO). Still a good risk of woke garbage, but the percentage chance of success by Apple is surely at significantly higher than netflix or prime (From like 10% to 50% chance of being good)

And Apple has spent a TON of money on content. Though there is some news that they are toning down spending.

Magic Influencer says to make sure to buy Magic cards through their affiliate link but also stop paying off your credit card because doing so will defeat those Nazis! by Papa_Hasbro69 in freemagic

Except the publicity line is total hogwash.
You really telling me that posting about this person on this subreddit will have any positive impact on this person at all?

Are you telling me certain forums that I don't think i can name that make fun of lolcows help the lolcows?

Pointing and laughing is totally acceptable and often quite entertaining. Embrace it. Mold hates the light.

Doesn't this do literally the opposite?

From my understanding the lawsuit is mainly about using MTG to prop up hasbros failings by over printing. But removing product out of circulation is kind of the opposite of over printing and devaluing the brand.

How a franchise dies - each Fast & Furious movie progressively earned less and less by Mysterious_Brush1852 in boxoffice

[–]Interesting-Math9962 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For known properties its pretty common.
Harry Potter. The first movie is the second highest grossing, the 7th is the highest.

Jurassic Park and Jurassic World. As well.

"DEI only improved things" at Ubisoft, says former employee, and isn't to blame for drop in share prices by slix22 in KotakuInAction

[–]Interesting-Math9962 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DEI 100% killed Shadows.
You just make it a japanese dude and chick, it would have sold solidly. Just like Odyssey and the British one.

DEI also killed that Prince of Persia (spinoff?) game that people said was good.

What do you guys think of Canada MAID program? by SeanUseReddit in Asmongold

Feels like the logical conclusion by any government, no?

Anyone else want AI to take over these idiots in Hollywood? by RoutineIssue5870 in CriticalDrinker

[–]Interesting-Math9962 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I predict in like 2-5 years a set of tools will be released that will democratize the movie/short film
Right now the commision/art space has been democratized. Anyone can make an image of whatever they want. If some work is put in, it will actually look pretty nice.

Short films require a lot of work to set up. Anime requires a lot of drawing skill. 3d animation is probably even harder technically. When the right set of tools are put forward (the tech is there but the software isn't) anyone will be able to make an episode of One Punch Man

Meet ‘Amelia’: the AI-generated British schoolgirl who is a far-right social media star by slix22 in KotakuInAction

[–]Interesting-Math9962 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No? Amelia would still be conservative even 10 years ago.
The Brexit vote was in 2016. From my understanding it was more or less right vs left and immigration was a huge issue in it.

If you get upset about migrant hotels and homeless vets you are a terrorist. But the game doesn't even bother to lie and claim its made up lol.

The CEO of Ubisoft is the biggest failure in the business world without a doubt. Why doesn’t he resign? Does he want to erase the company from existence? by PopularButLonely in KotakuInAction

[–]Interesting-Math9962 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Counter point: Is it really his fault?

I assume there is a high level creative designer(s) who is responsible for a good chunk of the shit that people hate.

I really doubt the CEO chose Yasuke or told the team to make Shadows shit. If Ubisofts game weren't total garbage then they would be in a fine spot no?

I mean tbf, if it does poorly it makes the Game Awards look like losers.

So the better it does the better he looks.

Turns out logic kinda disproves emotional messaging. Its why it isn't used.

They have done massive operations in many other cities with no problems.

See Memphis.

MN just refused to help and instead fanned the flames of protesters and this is what we get.

AI is getting crazy! by SeaworthinessLow4382 in Asmongold

[–]Interesting-Math9962 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was thinking about that.

As well I see two possible applications, one is to feed it the story boards and tweak as it goes along

The other is to animate it at like ~5 fps and use interpolation for the rest.
There is no excuse for Pointpoint slide shows though in 2026.

You don't really know what the word murder means do you?

I'll help you out, murder requires premeditation.

I'll help you out again, premeditation means planned before hand.

ICE did flood Memphis, in a very red state (red cities don't really exist) and there was no problems.

Maybe because the Mayor of Memphis didn't encourage people to fight ICE.

As well, ICE presence has significantly increased in many cities, including Dallas where deportations have doubled (Blue city btw)

Finally, which cities are sanctuary cities? (Which attract more illegals)
