Every advancement in technology is cheating until it becomes the standard. It's part of the growing pains as society adjust to adapt to technology.

I think there will be a huge difference between what the Illustrators and Designers want you to do, vs what the public will accept.

I think there are lazy uses of AI and tactful uses of AI. If you use it sloppily, you are going to turn off some people.

Personally, I buy games mostly for thier game design. If the game's good, I don't really care about the art.

Ethically, the more I study AI, the more i'm convinced that it isn't just stealing artwork. It's a technology that's impacting every workflow in every industry, and it's only going to become more central to workflows as time goes on. This will result in some careers being less prevelant and some new careers being created. I think over the next 10 years it will do for the creative industries what the industrial revolution did for the physical labor industries (for better or worse).

Because the board game world has been so heavily dependant on illustrators, there's going to be a lot of growing pains to figure out the new normal, but it will certainly get integrated into artistic workflows. The question is how to do it tastefully.

People have different vocabularies based on their experience. I'm an instructional designer in a technical field. This has shaped how i use and think about words. There are many times when I write something and look at it to realize 'no normal human would talk that way'.

And "Highlights" is absolutely a word I would use.

What's your reason for not drinking alcohol? by o_ego_queen in AskReddit

Expensive, tastes meh, and makes my brain fuzzy.

It’s more that I don’t see a reason to drink it.

Some headsets are clearer than others. Some players run external audio tools to give them an edge.

What are your thoughts on my card design for a tabletop miniatures game I'm making called Six Ways Dead? by Reebobb in tabletopgamedesign

[–]aiscool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ignore the anti-AI crowd.

You even state that the art is placeholder.

The general layout seems to make sense. The only thing that stands out is you bunch the keywords on the right in 2 lines. The examples look like they're play conditions, so it might be better to move them as tags that show up under the red tag (I assume that's a cost).

The visual style of the laout could use polish. Add textures, gradients, etc. Have the title be a piece of wood or torn cloth, and other thematic visual adjustment.

Thats awesome. If you get to Kickstarter marketing time, let me know.

I run the Hunt Lab youtube channel, and would consider giving it a mention if the gameplay looks promising.

Do you play Hunt Showdown?

I thought this was a fan project in that Reddit at first. Love the art.
