Look...I don't know who needs to hear this, but don't use someone as your measuring stick. It's good to take notes, to be inspired by someone or to even learn from them. But DON'T put yourself down because of someone else's skill.

Bad Game Idea: A shop simulator game/crafting game. You are a loot goblin, living in a dungeon. You horde treasures and trinkets while also managing a shop for adventurers. You can give them loot they want, withhold it, create armor and weapons, fight other monsters for desirable loot, and steal.

Art is an expression of oneself. Art is emotion. Without emotion, you don't have art. I don't think it takes a doctorate to understand that "Generative AI" doesn't have emotion or anything to express.

I strongly dislike how some people wanna try and defend game companies using AI like "Oh, you don't like AI? You have a Nvidia Graphics card that has Ai Upscaling." Good point. However, that is a bad faith argument. It is something to help the performance of games in the future.

I have been on strike for the past 3 weeks. Me and my Fellow employees and many others nationwide have been striking for a contract, and many people feel it does nothing...but in just 6 days they had to temp close our store cause we were convinving scabs to go to their stores and unionize.

@makorays.bsky.social random streamer i saw here is your fanart (i was rushing to make it before stream ended so dont judge too harshly)

I'm convinced, ""HYPER"" artists are master artists. They've mastered anatomy and rendering, just to manipulate the body into this insane size & shape, and I'm not really into hyper hyper... But when a ""Hyper"" artist draw an ""Average"" sized character it's crazy amazing and borderline perfect

It's hilarious how people contradict themselves. A person yelled at us to go back to work and that we shouldn't be doing that, and they're a healthcare worker. Like, "Girl...you of all people should understand the need to unionize and fight for your rights."

SARTARTDART COMMS: 1. @wildcardimmoral.bsky.social on her phone or something. 2. Dandelion hotboxing a bus with weed burps. 3. Some Navy Twink showing off peak perfection. 4. Myself at the end of Sonic 3 caught in a "Clue Trap" [sic]. Thank you all for the commissions! #hyperass #hypersky #stuffing

We are people.

Bad Game Idea: You are a Detective who had died, but your partner is still alive and trying to finish all your cases before they retire as they think it would help you move on. Your goal as a ghostly detective is to help your old partner with their quest to solve these crimes helping them retire...

Anyone out there have a good tutorial for making curly/poofy low poly hair in blender?

Bad Game Idea: You are death. You have been tricked into being the godparents of a child of someone who has deceased. You possess animals, nudge things onto their path, and steer them out of the way of obstacles to keep them safe. You watch them grow up from a baby to an adolescent to an adult.

Bad game idea: An RPG like dragon quest 9, where you build a team, craft weapons and armor and try to stop a terrible evil. However, you have a save system that encourages save scumming. When you go back to a previous save, you keep all your items from your current save.

Bad Game Idea: A pokemon game, but YOU play as Team Rocket. Like, from the anime. You do goofy Hijinks like stealing Magikarp, Hunting Kangaskhan, etc. However, halfway through you learn what all this is doing and you get the choice to continue your wickedness or fight against Team Rocket.

Bad Game Idea: You play as a healer of a party adventurers and as you travel your miracles are heard by the common folk, making them believe you are a god...but you aren't. You aren't even a healer. You're just a grandma who cooks good and makes people feel better. The goal is to become a god.

If you ever plan to be a DM, some words of advice: expect the unexpected and ALSO be prepared for your players to shoot you in the face with the schrodinger equivalent of a Chekhov's gun.

So, my cat apparently turns on my PC when I'm not home or asleep. I found out when I heard it turn on and saw her jumping on top to get to hear perch.

GameCube was the last good Nintendo console
