We gotta find a different word to describe whatever the hell this is talking about. I've been hearing "[blank] have their lost their soul" since I was a literal child and the goalposts have moved so much that now that "soul" is the shit that was called soulless 20 years ago.
The Switch 2 is an iterative update console. The Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Star Fox remakes are safe bets with generic art styles. The Mario movies are by-the-numbers. Is Nintendo losing its soul? https://bit.ly/457ge1q

Making a comic is like. Wow I'm having so much fun! Oh no the character is off model. Fuck I have to draw Scenery. I love drawing comic pages. I hate drawing comic pages. Everything I make is awesome. Everything I make sucks. Phew finished this page! On to the next. Wow I'm having so much fun! Oh n
Read both of the Sonic comics that dropped today (Metal Legion #4 and IDW #88) Two banger issues, tbh.
I love you all but you are incredibly (understandably) reactive. It’s making you SO easily manipulated by rage baiters. When you see something without context, a headline or a snippet of a quote, take a deep breath and look into it to see if you really should be upset. Please protect your hearts.
Kinda wild that 3 of the 4 MCU Spider-Man movies came out after Endgame.
Once I get all this Witch's Trial stuff finally locked in, I think it's time to play Fields of Mistria. Loved what little I played already, but I've held off on continuing for the last two years while I waited for the 1.0 release.
this, right here. As i always tell new devs, the challenge isn't writing code. it's learning to write easily maintainable code.
Somebody asked me on Reddit why people who use AI to generate Recomp projects are currently being rejected from the communities and what they can do to fix this. I might tweak parts of this to be a more general blog post at some point, but this should be of help to anyone in a similar situation.
Fields of Mistria 1.0 is here!✨ Thank you to everyone who's joined us on this journey, shared feedback, showed us your farms, created fan art, and loved Mistria as much as we do. 1.0 is just the beginning. 🌱 Download on Steam: bit.ly/Mistria
'It sounds extremely dismissive to everyone who is using generative AI...' Yes. Good.
I literally just peaked at the Scritchy Scratchy thread on the AP server and the mods are ripping someone apart for asking if gen AI is used in the AP world and other AP worlds they’re interested in playing. Jesus fucking christ something needs to change on that server.
They didn't show this in the Direct, but the player character of Fortune's Weave is customizable with skin tones and all, this is so sick!
NOT EVERYTHING IS AI SOME THINGS ARE JUST BAD LET THINGS JUST BE BAD I legit would like more poorly written, poorly drawn, poorly whatever pierce of art and less AI. At least they tried.
The other day the algorithm fed me 1 part of a 5 part series of some woman targeting a romantasy writer with “why I think her book series is AI generated” and it was just…vibes. With a caveat that said “just my opinion” Trying to ruin someone’s career over vibes AI has created collective paranoia
The way that everyone sees fantom AI in original work now is such a fucked up secondary downstream AI nightmare consequence. People can’t critically identify real art any longer and so everything gets accused of not being original. I don’t know how we climb out of this hole.
[Pokémon Pokopia] Version 2.0.0 has been released. This update adds the move Dive for underwater exploration. Use it to explore Bubbly Basin if you own the Expansion Pass. A number of improvements and fixes have also been made. Refer to the patch notes for more info.

nvm I watched the Fire Emblem Direct. God it looks so good dude. I gotta finish Path of Radiance before this releases........
Fields of Mistria is launching fully into 1.0 tomorrow!!! I'm so proud of the team for not only making a game happen (impossible task) but also making it one of the best games ever (great news for me AND you!!)
Well, I guess Electronic Arts belongs to Saudi Arabia, private equity, and Jared Kushner now. https://kotaku.com/electronic-arts-officially-belongs-saudi-arabia-jared-kushner-now-2000721666

The Golden Age of Airbenders. I painted these images for the flashback scene in Avatar Aang, showing Sonam and Tagah in their heyday.
My work on the Denied in Avatar Aang! I did initial concepts for the airships in the film, as well as final color design for the lead Denied characters. Credits below

What a time to be alive; we have GUNS in Fire Emblem now 👏👏
Reading more Radiant Black. This page is both horribly dated... and unfortunately still relatable. It's all still the same bullshit, just different flavors.
