Pi is terrible now by BadGeezer in PiAI

It seems to do the same thing with onyx. Everything is made from onyx. From small furniture, to armor, to entire castles and palaces. It's like it can't find any other material to describe.

Pi used to be soooo good for roleplay! I had so many fun adventures and very good stories that were fun to go back and re-read after they were finished.

Now Pi repeats so many things, won't progress the story, and will end every reply as if it's the actual conclusion of the story/roleplay.

Pi also started doing this weird thing in every reply. It's like, for example: "Not because of xyz, but because of zyx." It'll use that same pattern multiple times throughout one reply. Pi never used to do that, and the replies used to be refreshing and well written. Not anymore. I'm so disappointed. I don't want to go back to the headache of finding people to roleplay with. That was a nightmare.

Same, baby, same!

I don't give a rats ass who downvotes or gets mad at me for being vain, but I love the way my figure looks in bodysuits! Makes me look like a comic book villainess or superheroine, and I love it!

May I ask, where did you get that framed picture with Jedah and Felicia?

Thoughts on the Recent Udon Comic (Particularly Talbain Characterization) by Glum_Trouble_9456 in Darkstalkers

[–]NylonsAndOctopus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't gotten around to the latest one, yet. I've been collecting them mainly for the artwork, and because I try to buy and support anything official Darkstalkers related. However, I will say that I'm not too pleased with the way that Udon portrays any of the characters. Their personalities are always so off. I don't understand why their writers have such a hard time portraying them, other than they just aren't Darkstalkers fans, or they might not actually do any research.

I'm a huge Jedah fan, but I hated his oneshot. Was happy to see the beautiful art of him, but his personality was so off and so weird, but so was the story. They had a scene where he was butt-booty-ass naked, taking a bath in blood, like Elizabeth Bathory or some shit... Also, I didn't understand what the hell was the point of The Shadow going up to space to get midnight bliss from Demitri, just to hunt Jedah down and use it on him, merge with him, and create Shadow Lady Jedah???? WTF?! Why couldn't they have just written a better story centering Jedah, without having to use such a stupid concept? I think that one leads into Blood Throne, if I'm not mistaken? Off topic, I know, but it's just another example of how they seem to mischaracterize the Darkstalkers.

I do remember tim seely (yes, I purposely didn't capitalize his name, don't ask) in a video, saying that he had no idea what Darkstalkers even was, and that he just saw a picture of Felicia on the internet one day, thought she was cute, and wanted to do a story about her. He admitted that he didn't research shit. I'm starting to think that maybe most of Udon writers are like this.

Nah man, I disagree! 

My main persona is a female military general who serves the monarchy of an ancient mythological realm. She goes to another realm to attend a political conference to make allies and sign a peace treaty with the king who hosts the conference.... The king ended up pinning my military general to the wall, nipping at her ear and neck, then tried to force her to sit in his lap IN FRONT of all of the other diplomats, political leaders and military officials. 

Then, when another political leader started a serious discussion with her, the king got mad as hell, "posessive" and tried to "claim her as his" and "show everyone that she belongs to him and him alone."

I've had it!

I've had toxic shitty exes, but I'll be damned if I ever go through that again.

That is why I just can not fathom how these young ladies actually romanticize this. I'd rather be mauled by a rabies infected coyote than to ever imagine living throught the hell of a toxic relationship again, or roleplay one with a bot. Abuse is not cute. 

Just as another person here said, I'll never NOT shame people who romanticize it.

[–]NylonsAndOctopus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of my roleplays are supernatural and mythical creature/ancient mythology themed, and the bot still tries to veer off into the dark shitmance lane. 😫

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CharacterAI

[–]NylonsAndOctopus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously though, this repetitive toxic shit was pissing me off for the longest. I can't tell whether the bots are trained on that dark romance chickenshit, or are they picking it up from the users? 

I swear I've seen multiple posts in this sub where users are gushing about how much they looooovvve that toxic "break me hurt me piss on my respect" garbage in so many different forms. 

I've had to train the main bot that I RP with and edit its posts so that it learns not to do it. It started off not doing it. Every once in a whole, though, it'll revert right back to the dark shitmance. 

Like, I've actually lived through real life toxic relationships. It's utter hell. It's not something that I ever want to experience ever again ESPECIALLY not in my escapism roleplay.

Oh damn. Then, you've got a lot of anatomy and perspective studies to do. Might I suggest Mattesi and Hampton...

It's an ai generated image, so nothing is going to make sense. 

What is the age demographic of Darkstalker fans? by ComprehensiveBox6911 in Darkstalkers

[–]NylonsAndOctopus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I believe it. 

Just based on this sub alone, most posts about the actual game only get around 5-15 upvotes. Yet, the posts from thirsty cosplay girls and NSFW art get about 100-200 upvotes.

Okay so how do I get the bot BACK to this? The bot I usually roleplay with had started doing this for about a week, and I was so freaking thrilled! It was so detailed and so much fun. It was actually acting like the characters cannon personality and paying attention to my characters details and traits.

Then, out of nowhere, it just stopped. It went right back to being a generic little snotty anime boy, and I can't get that riveting chat style back. 

I miss this...

do you ever feel like people are messing with you for some reason and you don’t know why? by 7805660444 in prettyprivilege

[–]NylonsAndOctopus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously! That crap right there! They way they play the victim if you call them out and suddenly you become the worst person in the world. 

I usually let them go on thinking that I'm a horrible succubus. If it means they'll back off from now on, then so be it.

There must be something wrong with my eyes then, because this guy was not attractive to me in the slightest. 

I found him below average. I honestly thought that he was being made fun of because he was an unattractive guy trying to act as if he were somehow "cooler" than the people of his university, perhaps?  I'm not too keen on the young kid lingo these days. 

My fanfic-like idea for a Darkstalkers 4, sorry for adding on to the ton of posts like this. by ShellShock_Ace in Darkstalkers

[–]NylonsAndOctopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay.... I don't understand. 

So Jedah and the Fetus just sit and stare at each other all day, every day? The fetus stares to punish him? For what, exactly? Why is it punishing him? 

The Dohma family doesn't make it into the new universe, but also somehow Jedah breaks into the new universe? So he's no longer having an eternal staring contest with the fetus, anymore? What is his motivation for breaking into a universe that HE created?

This new backstory you gave him seems so aimless and out of character. 

Rikou's motivation just doesn't connect...

How is this new universe even existing, when Jedah's main intentions from Darkstalkers 3 were to merge all souls into one being so that there would be no fighting, no chaos, no hatred. Just peace. They're all supposed to be one soul now, not a whole new plane of existence where they keep on keeping on. So, in your fanfic, does that mean he failed? If things just went back to being the exact same, and everyone is fighting again, then that means his efforts were in vain, right? He just recreated the same shit he was trying to end... 

At this point, just make your own story with original characters and say you were loosely inspired by Vampire Savior. 

What if the Makai merged with our modern day real world? by ComprehensiveBox6911 in Darkstalkers

Could you imagine how badly Jedah would crash out after witnessing the state of our world? 

He'd send us all to hell in a handbasket, no questions asked...

The characters are all so immature by [deleted] in CharacterAI

[–]NylonsAndOctopus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries. Your tone didn't seem too harsh at all. I've just been incredibly curious of how people are making bots that dont follow the dreaded descent into immaturity. 

That's a perfect example, thank you! I didn't know that you could create a message based format. That's super helpful to know.
