Right, I think it’s valid to dislike AI video due to various effects of AI on creative industries in general. But I think AI critics would be better off focusing on that, because the “AI looks like crap” argument is quickly becoming obsolete.

Always kinda liked Social Justice Warrior. Sounds like a cool paladin subclass or something.

Anti-nazi slop, the best kind of slop.

Nice shadowing on the characters.

Just do all the “mainline” Mario games. That way you get to decide what counts as mainline. It’ll be fun!

Sad to see you go, as a quiet enjoyer of your posts. Take care, enjoy your holiday.

A scene from the video game World of Warcraft of the gates of Ironforge, a dwarven city embedded in the mountains

A scene from the video game World of Warcraft of Orgrimmar, the orc capital city

A scene from the video game World of Warcraft of the Dark Portal, a portal between the realm of Azeroth and Outland

i recently finished v2.0 of my browser-based World of Warcraft level viewer! so here's a thread on what it is, how it works, and a visual history of its development

check it out at noclip.website by searching "World of Warcraft", finding a zone you wanna explore, and fly around w/ WASD + mouse

Interestingly, DX9 on the X360 was another nice example of this. You could (mostly) just write straight DX9 code. But there was a bunch of lower level functionality layered underneath, that could selectively be used.

I think in theory that’s the ideal solution. But it’s hard to fight the perception that D11on12 (or whatever) is a “second class citizen”. Metal is nice because essentially both the high level and low level api coexist together.

Could also add another define to mangle the names, and allow the header to be included multiple times. Makes the library code ugly, but usability is decent.

Makes me nostalgic for the days when “fake gamer who cheats at games” would have been a top 5 most bad things about him.

I agree 100%, and do exactly the same thing. Not a great strategy for actually finishing anything though.

More Chrono Trigger HD-2D Pixel Remaster redraw. Maybe I'll do CC characters next.

Those look great, if I just saw them in isolation I might believe they were the original sprites. But nice improvements when viewed side-by-side.

The worst is the brief moment of hope, when the music stops and you think it’s finally over.
