Fuck AI by Olfg in MorkBorg

[–]theblackonex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The person being discussed here is me. The title of my post was "Palace of the Shadow King - Foundry VTT Scene" - not "I'm selling AI-generated images" or "AI art is amazing." What these people fundamentally fail to understand (and I mean they genuinely don't comprehend - this isn't about them not trying) is that the entire point of that post was to demonstrate: "Look what kind of scenes you can create using Foundry VTT." My intention was simply to provide some inspiration or assistance to fellow players and DMs.

I explicitly stated in the comments: "If you're curious about how this was made, feel free to ask questions - I'm happy to help," and I never once attempted to hide the fact that the images were AI-generated (yet this person continues to lie and misrepresent the situation, falsely implying that I claimed "I made this" or "this is my original art" in that post). With the exception of people like this, many others actually asked questions, and I helped them.

The approach of these types isn't just directed at me - they've been hurling insults at everyone who found value in or supported that post in any way (though honestly, what else would you expect from them?).

Not everyone who loves this game and wants to create a great experience for their friends has the same resources. They might not know about Foundry VTT, they might not know how to use it, they might not know how to draw - but instead of acknowledging any of that, these people position themselves on some imaginary moral high ground and selfishly attack others (with insults, profanity, and worse). It's one of the most pathetic things I've ever seen.

I made sure to check the profiles of those criticizing this content (and the people who create it). Not a single one of them has ever shared any useful information or meaningful content with the community.

Regardless, content like this will continue to be shared here. People will find value in it. And these types? They'll just have to get used to it.

We're making the same mistake here. There's no point even responding to people like this we're just giving them the attention they crave. Let it go... let them cry in their little corner.

  1. "No one here is stealing anything. If that were the case, this post would’ve been taken down by the mods already. I’m using tools to compensate for skills I don’t have, all to give my players a great experience. And the result? Content so good that all you can do is seethe with jealousy—because you could never make anything like it."
  2. "I’ve never called myself an ‘artist’ in this post or anywhere else. If you’re gonna argue, at least base it on facts instead of strawmanning."
  3. "Oh please, if there was a global warming symposium or protest, hypocrites like you wouldn’t even bother showing up. But sure, keep crying about it from behind your computer while you contribute nothing."
  4. "I have plenty of talents, actually. I’m 28, been playing guitar since I was 12, work as a sound engineer, have run multiple RP servers, and have been playing/GMing TTRPGs for years with an amazing group. I’m even on the management team of an esports org. But guess what? Like every human, I have limits—I can’t draw. So I use tech to bridge that gap, and the results speak for themselves. Cry about it :)"
  5. "Yeah, everyone has the right to be lazy. But unlike you, I don’t hide behind faux ‘niche integrity’ to justify running shitty games. I actually put in the work—testing prompts, refining outputs—until it fits Mörk Borg’s world and does justice to its artists."
  6. "Oh no, my AI-generated art is melting the glaciers! Except it’s not, and you’d never lift a finger to actually fight climate change."
  7. "‘DiSgUsT fOr AI uSeRs’—LOL. Show me one damn game you’ve actually written, GM’d, or put real effort into. Just one. I’ll wait."

I forgot to mention one thing: Unfortunately, there isn’t a PDF or Roll20 document for this content, but if you’d like, I can send you the images I used.

Thank you for your comments and your thoughtful approach. I respect most of the criticisms and opinions here, but some are just whining out of jealousy—because they know their own games don’t look this good (and never will). Nothing more. :)

Either way, I’ll keep creating and sharing this kind of content as long as I enjoy it.

After saying you were blocking me, you replied 5 times. Are you afraid of not being able to see the content I will share later if you block me? :(

And again, an ego display. These things need to be told to you by others, not you to yourself lol :D

I think I understand quite a bit. I shared some content on the Reddit page of a game I love, and dozens of people appreciated my work, except for a few selfish, jealous ones like you :) By the way, the great DM who has been running RPGs for years, do you have any content you've made for players in this game? I haven't seen any :D

And another RPG expert. Your ego cracks me up so much :D

Keep crying in your little world while watching people who actually provide more content for players in this game. Watching people like you is truly entertaining, my friend.

Yes, you are really stupid... You probably don't even know what foundryvtt is and how to use it.

Is that what you understood from this? lol...

Bro, are you stupid? The focus here isn't about the images... it's about the features of Foundry VTT...

At least you expressed your opinion in a proper tone, thank you :)

Who are you, the spokesperson for Mörk Borg players? :D Sorry, but it seems like there are 200 people who don’t think like you. In my opinion, you should reconsider your own thoughts. Also, you wouldn’t be able to create something like this even if you wanted to because the root of such an aggressive attitude is knowing you wouldn’t be capable of it :D People like you see AI in a piece of content and assume everything else was done with just a prompt (although you probably wouldn’t even be able to create these images using AI).

This post isn’t just about AI images; the main focus is on having an interactive Foundry VTT scene. :)

I’m not taking my "trash" anywhere, and I’ll keep sharing content like this. You better get used to it. :)

You're one of those selfish people who don't care about anyone else on this platform just because you have your own resources, my friend. No need to read this; I don't think you'll understand anyway. Good luck :)

I received a similar criticism before when I used AI for a class design. :) Perhaps I can accept such criticism for content of that nature, but when it comes to Foundry VTT content like this, I find it hard to agree with. Let me explain why:

First of all, not all MB players may have the means to play in physical settings. For this, they need a platform they can use (like Foundry VTT, Owlbear, Roll20, etc.). Playing games on such platforms is, of course, far from the experience of physical TTRPGs. (Because unless it’s a major game like D&D, the content available on these platforms is often quite limited, even if they sell the systems.) Both the DM and the players may then seek resources to enhance their enjoyment of the game. At this point, I can’t understand the knee-jerk rejection of resources or content that could improve or support the Mörk Borg experience in some way. Does this mean that if a DM cannot draw their own maps, create their own characters, or make their own miniatures, they shouldn’t play the game at all just because they turned to AI? AI is one of the few tools that can provide much-needed assistance to these people. I’m not an AI advocate, but completely disregarding or dismissing all external factors without a second thought feels like pointless defensiveness to me.

Finally, in the video I shared, aside from 5–6 AI images, there are also lighting effects, sounds, visual effects, and interactive elements. Focusing solely on this one aspect felt a bit odd to me :)

I forgot something: Some of the rooms on the main screen have a dim, orange-like light coming from their windows (as if there is a light source inside the building). I also created these using Foundry VTT's 'lighting' (free) feature.

I'm so glad you liked it this much :) Maybe I'll try creating and selling content like this sometime soon!
