There's some confusion in comments/reactions because there's an AI tool that has a similar name as the game's working title 🤦‍♀️

This is a misunderstanding, the game does NOT use any genAI content, please see official response here: steamcommunity.com/app/2697000/...

Please disclose your AI usage :: The Legend of Khiimori General Discussions

This game uses Whisper 3, which is an AI-powered speech recognition and translation software. This is NOT disclosed on the store's page and in fact, I don't think I would have known at all had the sof...

As someone who has run projects on almost all crowdfunding platforms, I have been hypercritical of @gamefound.bsky.social

Which is why I am thrilled to have @cambr-found.bsky.social join me for the inaugural episode of our new show "Intrepid Merchants" to talk about their #RPGParty event at 8p

Hello #PortfolioDay 👋

I'm Platyps, a hobby artist from the UK - I love drawing fantasy and TTRPG characters, my OCs, and sometimes fanart 🐉🎲

🎨 cara.app/peculiarplat...

Digital drawing of a half-elf monk standing among some trees, resting his hands on the trunks of two trees that form an arch over his head, and peering curiously at something out of the left side of the frame. He has blond hair, cut short and spiked up at the front, blue eyes, and pointed ears. He is wearing a blue neckerchief, wrist bracers, no shirt, a green martial arts sash, and loose blue trousers obscured by branches in the foreground.

Digital drawing of a shirtless bearded half-orc man, with scars across his body, sitting on a stone throne and lit by a shaft of light emanating from the top left of the frame. He is resting his left hand on the arm of the throne, and holding a sword in his right, with its tip resting on the ground in front of him. His left foot is resting on the skull of a sabre-toothed cat-like creature. He is looking fiercely towards the camera.

Digital drawing of Edward Elric, main character of the anime & manga "Fullmetal Alchemist." The drawing depicts a young man with golden hair and eyes, worn with bangs on either side of the face and a single braid at the back. He is wearing a tucked-in vest that shows his metal right arm, a thick leather belt, and dark trousers. He is standing with his hands in his pockets, moodily looking off to the right of the frame.

Digital drawing of a muscular man standing in a lake, with the water level coming up to his hips. The skin of his arms is discoloured and blue, with strange runes etched on them, and he is wearing leather bands hung with charms around them. His hair is also coming through blue, and he is looking towards the top left of the frame.

Pintober 13 is Tentacles! So here's Domenico dressed up as a cthulhu or something. Whatever he is, his two boyfriends still would.

Meet Breandan, one of the Butterfly Court's most loyal and skilled knights in the #Sparrowverse!

This is his more human-like appearance. I'm still working on his fae form, but he can protect Oberon and Titania regardless of his appearance!

You can't logic your way out of being burnt out. Unless you're me. Who should be able to do it and it's a personal failing that I can't

Oh, that might be a good time if @drslayton.bsky.social accepts crossover art 😏

In the unlikely event an opponent disarms him, his cheekbones make excellent weapons

Yeah! And it's a safe way to do that without hurting anyone!

He's here. #Hermes, Greek Messenger God of Trade(heh), Speed, Wit, and Cunning.

#GreekMythology

His pose references Jean-Baptiste Pigalle' sculptue, Mercury Attaching His Winged Sandlas.

All the best.

The Greek god, Hermes, pose referenced from Jean-Baptiste Pigalle's Mercury Attaching His Winged Sandals. He's near nude, muscular, with a rosy complexion, red hair, and freckles. He wears his winged cap and has a knowing smirk on his face as he looks towards off screen.. He's sitting on a yellow, pink, and purple cloud. The surrounding clouds are in various pastels of purple, pink, orange, and white.

Yup! And reading fiction or doing roleplay that involves things that would be illegal in reality doesn't make you a bad person. Doesn't even mean you're more likely to do those things in reality.

And it's almost that consuming taboo or """illegal""" porn isn't actually an immoral act on its own.

I know that's not what the study is about but I feel there's a connection between religious moral porn panic and ""illegal"" porn too.

LRP reading the study it's almost like people are wrong when they say the kind of porn you consume determines what kind of person you are...

CALL YOUR REPS ABOUT THIS. If youre in missouri, especially call about it, but if youre not in Missouri you should still call your own reps and explain how this is unacceptable and demand action!
