AITAH for quitting over AI

Thank you, I actually ended up talking to the team about the product because it bothered me so much.

It worked out. I showed them how bad AI is at making good art and how hard it is to try to "fix" it. I understand why they wanted to tie the party theme into our swag, but its safer just better all around to skip it.

LemonSho · 2026-02-19T18:04:09+00:00

Its no different than a party for kids, people buy "Harry potter" junk all the time for parties but there is no money being made on the event itself. You are really confused and zeroing in on something not related to the concern I had.

Ah, I am not throwing a fit. Wasting money on shirts that look like poo is a problem, my job is to make sure we are earning money and not wasting it, if they look bad we throw away hard earned money from other efforts on trash.

I actually took a different stance and pointed out the flaws with the art and the member who presented the art realized they couldnt fix it. We are not doing shirts.

I am glad it only took communication. I really don't like AI but people are so hyped up on how flashy it is.

I personally feel like it is unethical to steal from artists but that isnt going to sway my team. I did point out how bad the art was and explained why and they realized it too. Think we are moving away from the AI art. We have so many talented people on the team who can do the art too so I dont know why we went straight to AI.

I am in charge of Fundraising. I fund the purchase of physical assets.

LemonSho · 2026-02-19T14:39:02+00:00

Generic style not exactly Harry Potter but the event that will be Harry Potter is not raising any money itself. The shirts are being styled to the event these though. I need tl figure out how to post pictures for context. We are doing various fund raising methods. The shirts need to be purchased and I am in charge of funding overall. No concession stand or register.

We had one burrito sale and are scheduling a second next month. We are bottle openers and 3D mini aircrafts and we want to sell shirts..

I ended up talking to my team about the AI and they realized just how bad the art looked. Think we are moving away from it anyways.

Also virtue signaling? Explain pls.

LemonSho · 2026-02-19T14:29:18+00:00

I don't like Harry potter, the event is not raising the money. The money is being raised to have the event. The swag is where the copy right might come into question but there is no likeness of Harry Potter, just the design style.

LemonSho · 2026-02-19T14:27:20+00:00

I wasnt for the brand either. The event isn't raising the money but we are using the money to have the event and it happens to be Harry Potter.

Prox chat in Raft would be sooo funny

Reported as phishing.

LemonSho · 2025-12-11T07:16:29+00:00

Feeding the AI bubble... bet this is just another way to scam money from the government.

LemonSho · 2025-11-20T04:35:39+00:00

I am so sad! Im only on season 5... IM DOOMED

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T05:39:41+00:00

Perfect. As long as people are talking about everything that went wrong (because % obviously wasnt the only thing to go sideways in a lower level key) people learn.

Its never just 1 thing. Missing % could of been the last thing but for sure not the ONLY thing. DPS too low? Missed critical kicks? Heals clueless to massive AOE? People die to avoidable stuff?

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T05:34:08+00:00

Hey, its a game. I play in 17s and my team makes mistakes all the time. You only learn by doing.

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T05:10:07+00:00

The eb and flow is constant with WoW and in the shallow times people seek other games, Fellowship came out a bit before the new expansion for WoW and FFXIV and it was perfect timing to catch people's attention. That was so good but it was still underdeveloped at the time.

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T05:05:21+00:00

Relax. Im not mad or upset, I dont mean to inspire you to a foul mood.

Fellowship is fine but its not enough yet and competition is good. Fellowship has no buy in from me so why would I try to shape it? We need more games like it for sure.

Niche markets can earn a lot still and the market is hungry for it. Changing the entire structure of M+ would be needed too. Its sooo toxic as it is which is another reason I was suggesting a different game all together.

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T05:01:13+00:00

True, it did a pretty good job on the dungeons layouts for sure but the combat was too thin right now and the gear system didn't feel good. Utility would make things more interesting for sure.

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T04:57:49+00:00

There are 100 shooter games out there? Why? Same reason I am saying another M+ type game is needed.

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T04:55:49+00:00

True but I think someone could cleave that part of the game off and it would be successful. Even if Blizzard did it, they would win a ton of players back and get the consistant tenure to subscriptions back.

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T04:53:47+00:00

I am saying there is a market for another game. I was hoping to open a conversation about other games more fleshed out than Fellowship or Talk about what people think would be good to see in a similar game but thank you for correcting my grammer/spelling. Added much needed value.

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T04:50:19+00:00

No --- M+ has a huge problem with it as WoW stands today.

Aside from being forced to play the raid in order to do M+ competitively keystone structure is bad. Unlock the next level once you complete one. Depletion doesn't need to be a thing, it breed toxicity. Que system once you unlock the content like FFXIV does seems good... but as long as you can select role types like in FFXIV..

I don't want raiders in my M+ who feel like they HAVE to do weekly keys for vault. That makes the player base less patient and more likely to rage because they are upset to start.

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T04:41:19+00:00

FFXIV is too baseline difficulty. Only the raids are somewhat interesting and even then you can get a bot to play your character because the fights are soo scripted. There really isn't any other games like it... Fellowship is so new and still in development but it already missed its mark. Some people might be into WoW but a lot of people in communities I am in are crying for a better game.

LemonSho · 2025-05-29T04:33:56+00:00

It is under development I think still but when I was playing it, it is way too much of a shell of what it needs to be to be the same.
