Believe it or not, some people enjoy putting their thoughts into words. Writing is an art form, in and of itself.

Anyway, candle making would be my hobby if one didn’t end up making candles in the process.

Idk why but this has me cracking up

Skongsong, Silkskong - Skong. (Silksong)

That’s a fair point, Skong was made by like 3 people and it’s probably one of the best games of all time — tons of love in the game.

I think that the amount of love that went into Clair Obscur eclipses any use of AI. If you’re under the impression that background textures they replaced must mean they used AI everywhere else — you must not have played the game.

I think, technically speaking due to Rayleigh Scattering and the nature of our sun, the sky wouldn’t be blue if it weren’t for the composition of our atmosphere — if I’m remembering correctly. So the sky could potentially be a different color with a different atmosphere, or at least we would perceive it that way (we are also sensitive to the color blue, so it is easier to see).

Idk, this has led to many more questions than I anticipated. I guess if you’re very strict about the light not being a part of the atmosphere due to scattering then it is not blue. Other factors like clouds, fog, smog, obviously play a part.

The sky is blue, water makes things wet, blood is red.

Just saying things that are obvious, don’t mind me.

So Clair Obscur, the game that absolutely won game of the year, lost due to a technicality.

The generative AI use everyone is pearl clutching about would be textures. As in things that have been procedurally generated (you don’t actually care what they look like, they are just there to smooth out wrinkles) for years.

As someone who hates AI, this is just fucking stupid. Like, you are a virtue signaling luddite if you believe that this usage of AI tarnishes the rest of the fucking game.

And the ‘ideal’ beach body is apparently something that can only be attained by steroid abuse. Arnie in his prime, pumping gear, should not be what anyone thinks is an ‘ideal beach body’. This is what I mean about steroid abuse normalization.

You mean the experimental reactors? Your comment implies that there are currently big data centers running fusion reactors to power them and that is just false.

They support… lunch?

That’s adorable

Edit: I genuinely mean this, the idea of a lil’ ol’ grandma being terrified of the Shadow Temple is heartwarming.

I would think that an extraction shooter would be a much worse experience for someone who doesn’t like battle royales. That’s my opinion, anyway — I know people who have done complete 180s on this so you’ll only ever figure it out if you give it a shot.

Normal human = Arnie in his prime, pumping gear.

The way we’ve normalized steroid use* is fucking insane. I remember when people used to be ashamed of that shit.

Edit* abuse because apparently the context isn’t enough of an indicator of meaning

I appreciate others ability to remain impartial on any given topic.

That being said, the context of pedophilia definitely makes this disgusting.

Correct, the difference is which will happen first. Given the option, the American people will choose the latter. They just need to be coerced into it first.

Do you enjoy playing battle royales by yourself?

Very, very different games

Mm, I’d be willing to bet that there are some who really are America first. It just so happens that includes waging war and extracting resources from places too weak or otherwise unable to defend themselves.

The choice U.S. citizens are being given is clear. We can extract resources from you or we can extract resources from someone else. Resources will be extracted either way.

I’m shocked! Shocked, I say!
