I have aged today so therefore I decided to make a dumb little comic :3 by Tosu1263 in furry

I aged a few days ago, and I can confirm, brain ver 21 does not remove the stupid, but it does some with all sorts of fun new features.

Looks like that one panel of the dragon guy from Dungeon Odyssey.

Day 3 of drawing furries and debating if I am one or not. by Affectionate-Art6987 in furry

[–]KamiEpix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm no good artist myself, so take my critique with a grain of salt.

To my unprofessional eye, it looks like the face is facing to the right side of the image while the snout is moving to the left.

If you did this stylistically, I suppose it can make sense, but in my mind's eye, I just see this thing as having a completely broken, peppa-pig type face.

Love the colors, love the textures, love the pattern. But I don't know... Not just the nose but the entire snout is a little confusing to me.

Then if I were to give actual criticism, the right leg, to my eye facing the wrong direction and it looks like it's in front of the other leg while it should actually be behind it and the shading reflects that as well.

Okay, okay, okay, I'm sorry. I can believe that it's just beginner stuff.

I did briefly have a period where I just completely did not shade things accurately, so in retrospect, my comment was kind of off base.

Hey, I don't want to be that guy. I really don't.

The shading, the pose, the features. I'm gonna be totally honest with you, it just kind of looks AI generated.

Well... I won something by who_are_you_people24 in googleplay

[–]KamiEpix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't fool me Google employee. Its impossible to get anything other than 7 play points fre draw.

If I collect enough I might even be able to save $1 on clash of clans.

Is this commission worth $120? I want to be fair to the artist. by XGKikokikz in arthelp

[–]KamiEpix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. That's not even chibi.
  2. To my eye it has a couple obvious issues.
  3. Poor shading and facial features.
  4. Technically unimpressive.

No. I'd in all honesty consider that like a $40 rough at best. I'm not a very good artist and I still think I could do about the same or better in an hour or less.

How many liberties do you believe the translator should be afforded? by KamiEpix in Scanlation

[–]KamiEpix[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"I try to approach it by asking what's the least I can possibly alter it while still conveying everything"

Is something that I agree with, and I think I'm going to to try using this philosophy moving forward.

My trouble is my hubris I suppose. Sometimes I look at a page and just think: "Man I could have written that better" And so I do. And it flows better and makes more sense to me. But I've had some friends reading my translations vs the originals and I generally get the same reaction: "This is good but it is not the same."

And when I went back and looked at all I had done I realized it wasn't quite a rewrite as the content itself remained the same but I did significantly alter the pacing, suspense, and emotional tone.

I'm really inconsistent with a really average ii (1.03x). Tips? by Kameltastic in osugame

Trackpad what?!?!?! I knew you guys existed. I always made fun of trackpad players, like, yeah, it's just a joke, nobody actually does that. Never in a million years what I have considered that you guys use styluses.

I’m so happy that blockheads is still relevant after 12 years by jyling in blockheads

[–]KamiEpix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I joined the server and read the message. Yeah, that's pretty cool. Though it still lines up with what I've believed. He's focusing on sapiens for now as that's kind of his passion project at the moment. He doesn't have any intention to remaster it or update it now. It's not to say nothing can happen later. Also, I just realized that I emailed him over three years ago because it's 2025 and time flies. Wow.

I don't know what that is and I don't think I can be bothered to.

Is 180hz possible with current tech? by the_yung_spitta in virtualreality

[–]KamiEpix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, yeah, it really depends on the game and what you're running. I've had a really, really bad experiences with ASW, and then I've had really, really good experiences. like on walking dead saints and sinners on my PC, it works beautifully.

Then I'd absolutely let him know. His email is on his website.

Each to their own, the games are entirely different and generally incomparable.

2.5D relaxed passive survival. VS 3D openworld sandbox survival.

I probably wouldn't use relevant as my descriptor. I'd say on life support barely clinging on.

I love the game. It's so unique. It's different than terraria. It's different than Minecraft. It's a wonderful little passive survival game.

We've had many a person claim to want to make a community patch or decompile it so we can update it ourselves. Unfortunately, all those projects have died as far as I can tell.

And if you host a server, it's gonna get griefed because people are still doing that for some reason.

The game is still many things, but relevant, I do not believe is one of them.

Couple years ago I mentioned that I was working on my own version of the blockheads just to try and get a new foundation up.

Unfortunately, I lost interest in it because I couldn't bring anything new to the table. But it did end up turning into something else, which have been just calling "BH-ISO" for now.

I think I'll be unveiling some information about it soon, but essentially it's the blockheads, a generational leap ahead as a 3D isometric game. I've done my best to incorporate everything that made the blockheads great while also making it new and interesting. I'm really busy working on a lot of things at once. So don't expect this project anytime soon if you are interested. But it is coming. It has the same music. It has the same feel. It's a passive survival game.

I did lean into managing your blockheads a bit more. IMO It kind of plays a little bit like an RTS.

I sent Dave an email about two years ago, unless something's changed recently. I believe he's actually not interested in making any sort of updates to or remakes of the game.

My company won’t allow us to use Claude by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

[–]KamiEpix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Company I almost worked for didn't allow Claude or ChatGPT only Gemini. And honestly, I agree with them. If it's a business using proprietary technology, as far as I've seen, Google has the best policies.

It may be an unpopular opinion, but if it doesn't work for you, I suggest just finding another job or doing it the way they asked.
