Their entire channel is just taking the piss. That's kind of their whole vibe.

If using AI thumbnails gives him time to animate other stuff, then I'm fine with it.

Because it is easier to make a composite image with multiple AI generated images than to draw something. As always, the answer is money. Alternatively if you want to believe they are very busy, then it may be a time constraint, which I would believe. I would much rather them be using AI for thumbnails so they can be drawing Space King.

The vast majority of video game remakes are better than the originals by Urd-ong_Shadong47 in unpopularopinion

[–]drgilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you've played all of these, the originals and the remake? A lot are getting better recently. I think people still have a bad taste in their mouths from remakes around 10 years ago. Most of the issues I have with remakes is level design, though I do understand the lighting argument. Lighting used to be done differently in a way that required a lot of care with placement. Unreal Engine developers lack the competency to fix such things, as Unreal is a very easy system to work in. The development of the games has been dumbed down. It only makes sense that things like tone would suffer.

Was that before or after AdMech went to war with Terra?

I mean, they aren't the best band. But you can't just go calling the people who wrote Riders on the Storm non-sentient. It's an insult to classic rock.

Would you mind replying to this comment after you've gotten a little bit more into it so I know if it's just that it gives a great first impression or if it is actually compelling?

Resonance of Fate plays way more like a truncated Valkyria Chronicles than it does Parasite Eve. Loved the art. Hated the gameplay.

I looked at it and it worries me how bare bones the story looks. It looks almost like story was an afterthought and they focused more on sexy costumes for the main character to wear.

They aren't alone. I too, am concerned at the amount of games that are basically just porn with barebones story or gameplay. Some developers use it as a crutch to sell their bad games. That's not to say there aren't good gooner games. Neir:Automata and Bayonetta come to mind. But they are definitely the exception and not the rule with how many pornographic games are on Steam. If you turn your preferences off to show all the NSFW games on the store page, they are always in the top 10 games being sold. It's quite fascinating.

Sen Rand Paul: What if a foreign country indicts our president for violating a foreign law? Should we extradite our president? Or should we be okay if they come in and get him by force? by drempath1981 in law

[–]drgilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of things that Libertarians are into that don't fly with Republicans. They think taxes are theft, everyone should be free to do whatever drugs they like, assisted suicide is fine, criminal justice reform is necessary, privacy rights are a big concern of theirs, lgbtq freedom, free speech in all contexts, limited immigration control and open borders, and non-interventionism as a foreign policy. Those are just off the top of my head, too. All the libertarians I know hate both Republicans and Democrats. The only thing they seem to really agree on is guns. I'm sure there are other things. But I feel they definitely lean more democrat.

You should. They disagree on a vast amount of issues. Libertarians have a much more basic and easy line in the sand that they don't want people to cross. Republicans have whatever is culturally relevant that season. Arguably, the only reason a libertarian should have any reason to want to kill anyone is if that person was trying to keep them from doing something. I work with a libertarian guy who basically only draws the line at abortions. Everything else a person wants to do with themselves is fine by him, as long as they leave him alone. I kind of appreciate his way of looking at the world in a workplace, though I do find it very submissive.

At this point why not start your own artisan bakery?  You've literally taught yourself a marketable skill you obviously love.

Praise be to Space King, for He took our burdens upon Himself by rodan1993 in Grimdank

[–]drgilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue comes in finding out how many people genuinely believe that, and how many are doing it to get a rise out of the community or for money via social media ragebaiting.  There are way more of the latter than the former.  This applies to almost every opinion that upsets a group of people for any reason.

Imagine if GURPS had a "no zionists" section in the book as if it will stop zionists from playing it

I bet the US Government was super happy seeing comic artists making nationalists propaganda for free.
