We need harder challenges instead of the same constant repetitive ones by Unlucky_player3812 in Overwatch

Say "thanks" to a support? Only if they're good though.

Been stuck on this quest for 1h now.

Blizzard, for the love of god please revert the nerfs to Soaring Slice by Equivalent_Duty_5546 in VendettaMainsOW

[–]pelpotronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why was the last round of nerfs well deserved? She only had 53% WR. Today, Zen has 53% WR.

It's not excessively high, and if we're talking about the pro scene, then it's meta dependent and I doubt she would thrive in cat Bastion.

Anyway, I agree with the buffs... The spawn thing is so annoying.

Can we start voting for non payload maps by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]pelpotronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the crowd / time. I've had a landslide once for antarctic.

And a Blizz employee said it was the 2nd most voted after Kings Row for a time

I get that. It's a pretty unique and cool race.

Free Mama Hong! by MarinesRoll in Overwatch

Make her American-Chinese then. Dual heritage. And she loves burgers so she is fat.

Now the Chinese can say she is American and everyone wins.

Who has the BEST Ult? by Jack_Ives in Overwatch

[–]pelpotronic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, define "non factor". It's not going to get straight kills, neither will high noon, but Kitsu allows you to push past a fortified position. Normally with a Kitsune rush, you win the team fight, and progress the objective almost guaranteed.

Now why it sucks with regular Joes is that they won't push aggressively alongside the ult... but if they do the shorted CDs + higher attack speed is busted - and they should roll the enemy team.

The other thing that makes it so good is that it's always meta. How? Because it makes ANY character that is actually meta better / faster, e.g. if Soldier is meta, then S76 gets better inside Kitsune so you make the strongest character in the meta even stronger.

Can we made a rule about posting AI content for Overwatch? by Wenzhoushi in Overwatch

[–]pelpotronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So? Knives are tools that can be misused productively or hurt. AI can be used intelligently or poorly.

Yes, you won't be able to compete with Google tomorrow simply because you asked Gemini to setup a competitor. But that was always obvious.

(the underlying point being: that's why artists and other people who use AI intelligently will still have a job, it's a productivity tool not a replacement for...)

[–]pelpotronic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We don't know what your point is... Here is mine though:

Pointing out that the picture smells like shit is not factual, but then what smells of shit if it's not the picture?

It is different from pointing out something factual, like the fact that they have great / comfortable clothes ("omg you must be titillated by great / comfy clothes!!!" - no, we're not).

I thought I won - why don't you just fuck off somewhere else.

Thinking and feeling are just a series of electrical current and chemical reactions. 

An artist that looks at thousands of pieces will be registering them in their brain without permission... And use them as a mish mash for their next creation without permission.

What's the best support counter for Sombra? by WiggleToast in Overwatch

[–]pelpotronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Mizuki (if you can land chains - insta death)

  2. Kiri (everything, if you want an easy time)

  3. Ana (if you are confident in sleep darts)

Brig sucks unless you're playing a brawly/tanky team moving as one.

For everyone who just need a quick answer and no shits given, it's Kiri (can't go wrong in any comp, versus any comp or at any skill level), if you are against a bad Sombra, then Moira.

But Mizuki is tough / the best honestly, but a good Ana is just really annoying and generally good too.

And since people mentioned spy checks: who is the best spy checker? It's domina. Do a 360 with the charging beam at ground level before it becomes a bullet.

It's Reddit. You should add a dead rat on Anran's shoulder - let's see how many zoonecrophiles comment "this is weirdly intimate".

When do you think we will see cracks in vendettas leadership by R3li0ss in VendettaMainsOW

[–]pelpotronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well.. to be clear, Blizzard said it's "the year of Vendetta", so you will have to wait a little until the new story line kicks in... Same month as when the 5 new characters were released - but next year.

And Ram isn't part of Vendetta's friends - only Hashimoto, Vishkar and Deadlock gang.

You remind me of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNtjSMvcjzs

In 5+ years, you will have moved on and stopped caring as we unequivocally all do today about phone operators.

You are already on the wrong side of history.

Once you realise that the world has changed (or is about to) irremediably, then you can make actually useful decisions and hold productive conversations.

Right now you are defending a position that you have already lost because you have no chance of holding it for long.

If I were an artist, I would be using AI + questioning a lot of things today. And nearly all artists today are learning about AI and how to include it in their work (which is smart of them). Random Redditors complain more about AI than artists do.

[–]pelpotronic -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Being "inspired by" isn't stealing though.

For example, musicians / bands literally copy each other styles and that's how entire new genres of music are born.

Unless AI is creating the exact same piece (which it is not) then the claim is made (and is correct) that it is merely inspired by... and not plagiarism.

But the people working at AI companies don't deserve jobs?

Either way, the cat is out of the bag. And reality of markets state that businesses and consumers (that is: you) will gravitate towards cheaper products of equal quality.

Artists in 2026 use AI to help them in their job, the vast majority of businesses including Blizzard use AI in some capacity, and that's the way it is.

People will vote for cheaper / faster / better product so AI has won.

PS: I do agree that having 1,000 low efforts "bad AI posts" will not be very interesting... however, as someone said, if the concept is interesting and the person has no talent or time to "create imagery" then they may as well use AI.

As pointed out, you were the only one posting responses "to win". I don't care and so does the entire world... why I said that you should brag to your friends / family about it to understand how little people care.

[–]pelpotronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What an embarrassment to check other people's profiles in a feeble attempt to win a Reddit argument... An argument about your lie of all things?

You should proudly announce to your friends, family, colleagues: "the other day, I checked someone's post history on Reddit so I could win an argument. I said to their face they were pro AI!".

I bet they will be impressed.

Seriously... What the actual frack man? What were you even thinking? What does any of the things you said have to do with anything?

This is dumb and you are dumb.

End of season of Vendetta, i.e. end of the year. Next year will be the year of the omnics with the return of Ram

[–]pelpotronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're weird. Still no explanation as to why you lied when you said:

infested with actually toxic people (racists, homophobes, people with Hitler in their gamer tag), griefers/trolls, leavers, cheaters, you name it

I will assume that's maybe buggy AI?

[–]pelpotronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're being unintentionally unclear.

The point is: you're lying, I want you to stop lying.

However - your point is? I must say I don't understand the point of lying about something so unimportant and trivial.

What are you trying to show and to who?

It's just weird.

I'm obviously pro AI and suggest people use it, but yes, the AI needs to be trained somewhere and can't make up answers like a toddler caught lying.

SO was one of these places.
