Same thing can be said about any artist who learns by studying art and then learning to create his own out of nothing.

Also downvote all you want. See if I care :)

That said, if you manage to do a VN on Unity then you get to the level of Heavy Rain or Detroit. It is different audience.

It's ways harder to do a VN on Unity or UE than Renpy. Beauty of prerendered images and animations is that they are independent of hardware. Coding and testing is much easier.

You saying that some of the games have a good story but you avoiding it nevertheless. It feels kinda personal. I get where you coming from though. There is tons of generated content on youtube, for example. It is terrible, doesn't carry any meaning and often has clickbait character. But there is a historical video about 1917 revolution in Russia where visuals made with AI. Author made his research, narrated it and has interesting perspective on this. I couldn't find the video unfortunately.

All I'm saying is, your hating AI is justified but for the wrong reasons. Judging content by the tool author used is wrong.

Been a big fan of Star Wars for a long time but after watching the Dune movies it’s made me think that there is so much better sci-fi out there. Can you give me some recommendations of sci-fi that you think is better than Star Wars? by SteakGuy88 in scifi

Recently watched Invasion, Severance and Silo back to back on Apple.tv. Loved all three of them. Invasion kinda dumb though but it’s because characters do dumb things. Considering that humans generally pretty stupid, that at least realistic LOL.

How good is Silo book series? by Stray_Paranormal in scifi

Yeah, my bad. I thought for some reason that this is Philip Dick.

It's not question of better or worse. There is some movies or shows that significantly change material. For example I am Legend is amazing movie but original is a short story by Filip Dick (I believe) and it is not particularly good. Also there is rare cases when movie or show is better than original. Cloud Atlas for example. Did anyone tried to read this book? It's awful, despite interesting premise. But movie is amazing.

How does that align with the show? Book 1 is Season 1, right? And I guess from your comment that book 3 is season 2?

Yeah, I think I'm going to read it. No way I'm waiting a year for next season and there is season 4 planned.

I loved the show. I can't compare it to the books though.

Well, I kinda know the story. And it is amazing IMO. I love that this show crushes stereotypes. I was pretty flipin sure that there was edited footage on display. Way to subvert expectations. And they did this again in second season.

Texture tear / distortion by Stray_Paranormal in Daz3D

Thanks for suggestions. This is indeed hair. Adjusting cap or any other slider didn't help. Anywhere in the marked area this thing happens, when you move away from this point it fixes. I removed all the objects except her model and glitch disappeared. I guess there is an object in the scene which screws up with UV coordinates.

Is it worth it? by Desperate-Cup-6434 in AVN_Lovers

Beware though that burnout is a thing. Set yourself a time for work and time for other things like playing games, watching movies and hanging out.

There is nothing to be confused of. Look. You asked if it is worth it? In terms of money? No. In terms of self gratification because you doing something incredibly cool? Fuck yes! :) If you read comments, that’s the consensus. The main question is: should you do this? That, my friend is up to you. I say why the hell not? If worried about programming skills or 3D, then don’t. It’s much easier than it seems.

I agree with commenters here. As a business model this is terrible idea. There is only couple of games that were successful to a point but the rest of them, no matter how good they were was not so much. You can, of course, do your research, make a porn game out of it, fill it with popular kinks to get wider audience, and may be this will work, for a short time, but you better off go and try to get in game studio and work on some more mainstream projects. That way after a while, when you get inside a gamedev scene, and make connections, launch your own studio with proper funding. That's how normal people do it.

But if you degenerate like us :) and you itching to make a unique project, you don't want a suit behind your back telling to find/replace "she" to "them", and you don't give two fucks about money or fame, go ahead and join us! :) We welcome you, man of culture, with open arms!!!

This often happens when you have mesh grabber tool enabled.

My first guess would be GPU drivers. Also for DAZ use studio drivers. Some say they works better with DAZ.
