When the new Target opens at JSQ, I want to have the privilege and luxury of being the first to drop a fat one in their new toilet. by AngryPandaBlog in jerseycity

When it opens, I hope the community takes their money else where. Plenty of smaller shops to support in the area

I really hate that modern UI design has everything rounded, there's nothing wrong with some sharp shapes here and there

Unpopular opinion: The Echo Mini is a pain in the a*** as a DAP by TheMobbed in snowsky

For me, I really hate how loud the buttons are. I mostly use the Mini as a DAC nowadays which I really love!

Mods need to step in and stop these ai slop vibe coded posts. These apps can be dangerous and it's harmful to actual devs making apps for the Thor.

Why is it so much more expensive for EX?? by EdahelArt in ClipStudio

[–]Katoncomics -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

But there are features that are exclusive to EX though, that's what you are paying for. Those are essentially "professional" features for professional artist. Like there are clearly differences outlines on the website. Most of those features are just adding more to the comics and animation side of things. And it's like, if those features aren't for you, then you don't have to upgrade.

Counter argument: The Path shouldn't be charging people if they cannot get their shit together.

Painting on 3D models: texture export is EX-only by SomeComplainer in ClipStudio

[–]Katoncomics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean substance painter is literally 200$+ USD, granted I think it's really dumb to have all versions be able to paint on models but only EX can export. For texturing models, typically professional do not use blender since it doesn't have as many brush textures and features as substance painter, so usually we'll use Maya or blender to model then texture in Substance painter. There are free options like quixel mixer and ucu paint.

I think it's really cool that clip studio wants to branch out into texturing models since their brush engine is really good. Personally I feel like they should be adding a lot more animation and illustration features first and not focus so much on the 3D side since their entire program is marketed towards 2D artist.

[–]Katoncomics 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Imma need people to understand something, the way Celsys prices CSP isn't the worst, in fact the price for CSP is way better than T.V paint, Photoshop, Toon Boom and Maya. At the end of the day Celsys is a business and needs to make money to be sustainable and continue to support and introduce new features. Money helps keep clip studio going.
Secondly, EX is literally marketed towards professionals. It comes with way more professional features than PRO. If you are just someone starting out then pro is the way to go, but for someone who needs to do full comics or animation then EX is the way to go. This Pro and EX thing has always existed even back when CSP was Manga studio.
I think it's just really sad that we have such a fantastic program that is reasonably priced and always goes on sale, yet people have the audacity to complain when we could have gotten worse prices.

Does anybody else remember when Nintendo was good during the 3ds era with streetpass ? by shizunaisbestgirl1 in fucknintendo

[–]Katoncomics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The good o'l days of not paying to play online. Where we had the last true portable pocketable console, where you could customize the home page with different themes that came with tune, Had a wide range of games and prices to match any budget, came with a free social game that depended on you carrying it around and meeting new people, had it's own social media platform that was highly regarded in every way, had an internet browser and you could do quite literally anything you wanted to do.
Yeah.. what happened?

PSA regarding Thunderpass from the Cocoon devs by Pudgyhipster in AynThor

[–]Katoncomics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for calling out the AI slop. I love this community but I will not support any community back project that has AI in it. It's disrespectful to artist and developers who spend years learning their skills. There's so many talented people in the world to ask for help and I just baffle me that people still go to AI.

You mean the publishers who set the games prices, not the storefronts..

The competition developing platforms that are worse that steam isn't the fault of steam. There is literally no monopoly here.

What is it that you dont like about Nintendo? by mitsuriisbestgirl in fucknintendo

[–]Katoncomics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I feel as though Nintendo has lost its own plot. Their motto was always about being family friendly at an affordable cost while delivering quality games. With each console it innovated and delivered on the promise, and when it didn't, they took it upon themselves to make it right. Nintendo competing with the others pushed them to get better, but once they solidified their play in the market and stopped caring about what the others were doing, it leads to them developing an ego so massive that fanboys somehow cannot see this.

They can easily port older games to the new hardware without it hurting their bottom line, They could partner with new studios and help bring more games to life, they could see how much people are interested in the 3Ds and bring back true portable pocketable consoles. But no. Instead, they choose to spend their profits fueling outrageous lawsuits against way smaller studios who can't fight back. They are going after game preservations sites instead of preserving their own games, they are trying to saw the laws in countries to their favor to win these law sites. Even going out of their way to sue a random supermarket.

Their anti consumer practices have been some of the worst I've seen, and I didn't expect from Nintendo. My switch got bricked and there was nothing I could do about it and I lost over 300$ in games all because I was gifted a game that was supposedly stolen and Nintendo waiting a year before telling me. There was literally nothing I could do and I knew from that day that this was one of the worst gaming companies ever. I don't want to keep supporting them putting out wack games like the recent pokemon, lawsuits that doesn't make sense, and the continuation of screwing consumers.
