discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

[Yoriko]

With all this talk about AI generation, it's reminding me of Nvidia's announcement about DLSS 5, which is basically a slop filter.
If that's what AAA games will be like, no one's going to take me away from indie games, independent AA titles, and fan games.

I think it’s unanimous, no one liked it hahaha. I’d like to know, what goes through the mind of a multi-million dollar company to rely on such a shitty idea of turning any game into AI slop.

It's terrifying to think that people with so much money are so stupid and so completely disconnected from reality.

As I was writing that, I remembered how the stock prices of several video game companies plummeted the day Google demonstrated an AI capable of creating hideously ugly walking simulators based on images and prompts.

They think we're still stuck in the Pac-Man and Tetris era, believing that those “slop-games” have a real future, while ignoring the fact that games require millions of lines of code just to function even mediocrely.

I see it differently. I started by generating images on

, refining them in Nana Banana, and then making some edits by hand. They always turned out terrible, and even so I still won a few times.


I don’t really know what Mime’s criteria are, but I always try to tell a story with the images I generate and actually put time and effort into them. Even when they don’t turn out great, they still feel worth it because it’s fun. For me, that’s the main point. The prize is just a bonus.

Your creations have looked great to me! I will usually try to add something ridiculous to compensate for my lack of using powerful image generators (so far)

 

[Yoriko]

this is what I used for some of what I posted in Mime's thread yd:
streamer gamer girl, she is wearing sexy clothes, sexy body, hot, wearing a headset, she is try to look her best for her stream and garner donations, cosplaying, cute face, natural face, legs spread, skirt riding up, hand covering her privates

then the negative prompts are always something like:
wrong limbs, too many limbs, fat, ugly, bad body (parts or whatever)

() and simple directions between the commas are super important since it treats each one sep and changes the order of operations and stuff.

That’s cool, you mix some “tags” with more descriptive parts (I’m not exactly sure how to describe your prompt style, I hope you understand me, because I don’t even understand myself hahaha).

Maybe keeping it simpler is better, my prompts were all more descriptive, like I was telling a story.
I delete my prompts after making the images D: so I can’t really show them.

Your image generation turned out really good, I’ll take note of it here, thanks <3

Remember that Nvidia has invested very heavily in AI, so part of this is sunk cost

And I'm really glad they're suffering the consequences of their own stupidity. What I don't like is that I know the ones who will pay the price are innocent workers, not the high-ranking officials who made such bad decisions—as always.

No problem. I know its not the most efficient or best way always and it can be pretty choppy as I go along.
There is also a prompt helper on perchance that I used one time and it really worked well.

I’ve always thought your images are really good, this one for example, turned out great.

Now I’m curious to know what ridiculous stuff you added to it.

I still need to play Subnautica at some point. I just struggle staying interested in open-world type games. Other than the Spire though, it's been mostly a mix of Factorio with a buddy and For Honor.

I can't recommend Subnautica enough, easily one of the best games of the last decade.
Trying to give this info without actual spoilers:
If you have problems with open worlds and motivating yourself just remember: there is a story and your ultimate goal is to leave the planet. When you follow the breadcrumbs and read everything and scan everything (and i mean everything!) you'll only have short times in which the open world can be really too much. There is a lot of stuff thats really nice to have but you don't need to enter every wreck to search for tech because what you find following strictly only the story will be enough ... it'll be easier if you explore but it's not necessary.

I have thalassophobia, and yet I still played Subnautica... I didn't finish it; I ended up building a base way far from where the Reapers appear because... fuck, that shit terrifies me. Excellent Game

I don't know how well-known—or obscure—this game is... but has anyone played it, or even heard of it?
(It's easily one of my favorite games; it's damn good. I'd kill for a PC version.)

It really feels like playing one of those 80s adventure anime, especially because of something that happens in the story (no spoilers)
Extra love for having a DS

I’ve never played it, the closest thing to a furry game that I’ve played and liked was Sonic Adventure. What game is this?

 

[nydd]

heard of it?

That Solatorobo: Red the Hunter? Haven't played it but I wanna. Played and beat FUGA Melodies of Steel 1. Stopped my 2nd playthrough genocide run. Played some of FUGA Melodies of Steel 2

It's really hard to describe, but basically you play as Red (no, my username doesn't come from there), a bounty hunter who works with his sister Chocolat. During a mission to steal an item from some flying pirates, they find themselves caught up in something much bigger.


The game is divided into two parts, which are like “seasons” of a series. It's an RPG that seems very simple in terms of mechanics and story, but it actually has a lot of depth. The world-building is top-notch, and the characters are quite interesting.

Exactly that~

Howdy folks. Saw this place recommended so I figured I'd check it out. Usually not too social, but I'll give it the 'ol try.

welcome! also a newbie to talking on here lmao

Just a heads up, probably gonna try to lurk less for the sake of not spending all day around here and actually doing things.

your art is so cute!!

Sounds interesting, it reminded me of something like Power Stone, or Breath of Fire in transformation, but I didn’t dig too deep to avoid spoilers. I’ll put it on my list to play.
Is it an RPG, action, or turn-based?
