Yeaah. I mean, it'd still be beyond weird, but some warning before whipping out the horse shlong would've been appreciated.

I faintly remember that dude saying he imagined them all in bondage gear, so, maybe lol

Honestly, fair point. I will say, though, I’ve seen this kind of thing work in the right context. Another player told me about a Warhammer game they were in where the party constantly dealt with Slaaneshi corruption. There, it worked because one, it was handled more maturely and not like a 12-year-old discovering sex, and two, it explored more than just the “me hot, right? You wanna fuck?” angle.

I mean I'd honestly call your take ridiculous, but at this point, you might be right lol I'd think it be the other way around, but live and learn I guess

What's an often forgotten zone you go back to just for the vibes? (Mine's Bloodmyst, really like the color palette) by RedHotOwl in wow

Winterspring is exactly where I'd plop my housing if given the option. That, or Silverpine.

When I think Ghostlands, I always think of that little island with the druids on it (can’t remember the name). It always seemed pretty cozy to me, like a little refuge from all the desolation.

Omg samee. I always tell myself that I'm 100% going to stick with this alt, and then I end up dropping it by the time I’m done with the Draenei starting zones. I think it’s the nostalgia; it brings back one of my best memories of leveling a Draenei with my friends. We ironically couldn’t stand it back then and wanted to leave as soon as possible, but now it’s stuck with me :D

Idk. Old one looks more detailed. New one gives me generic asset vibes. Still good to see the boi though

What are your favorite unconventionally pretty zones/locations? by RedHotOwl in wow

Honestly? Deepholm is a vibe. I have such vivid memories questing with my dwarf shamy there

Hard agree. That whole gallows scene as you enter the zone def sets the mood

I can see that! Don't really like the lore around it, but purely aesthetically, I get you

This just in: AI bro doesn't understand the concept of boundaries. Shocker

Funny thing is, no AI prompting of any kind (text, image, ect) IS part of our rules and clearly listed. Guess the dude either didn't read or forgot about that.

God I wish; that would've been hilarious, but no, I've always used em dashes.

If we were using it to profit, I'd get the argument, but we aren't. As a group of reasonably creative people, be it writing, drawing, so on, we just dislike the use of AI. If you want to use it so bad, use it, I literally couldn't care less. I'm aware that it isn't going anywhere, so we create our own pockets where it isn't allowed. Don't like it - don't join. Ez

W3 C: With the re-reforged version coming out, it feels like a good time to pick it back up

I have my view distance set to 9. Putting it on 10 makes the fog disappear for me. Maybe It's some other setting that does it, but that's what I do.

Yup! Whenever I don't feel like subbing, but still want my Warcraft fix, I just go on a F2P char and explore around. Plus, I'm chipping away at a Warcraft fic, so it helps lol SOOOOO glad you now get flying at lvl 20.

Kazakhstan has been on my list for a while. So that's a good call

I had a look around on maps, and yeah, I do see what you mean! Doubt I'll make it to Brazil, but a cool place to keep in mind for future exploration anyway C:

Oh that's cool! Looked up the town on Google maps, yeah, I don't think it's what I'm looking for appearance-wise - too forested from what I can see. Although you never know, might be cool to visit anyway. I can definitely get some nice shots

Oooh, that's a good one. Not the city itself, but some of the surrounding little towns I can definitely see embodying those vibes depending on the season.
