apologies for the long post and rant, but I figure I make my stance on ai abundantly clear (its a plague upon the world, if I wasn't clear enough)

now to get back to posting furry art once every blue moon and talking about music or warframe once a week(month)

I can already hear the counter argument of "Oh, but you liked the game made with the help of generative ai so ai must be good in the end"

and that argument misses the point entirely, its the fact that such an incredible game was created with ai thats so goddamn frustrating

Without the process there is no art, whats the point when you don't even try

How much of this game was actually human

Clair Obscur broke me when I played through it
genuinely one of the best stories I've ever experienced, so deeply intwined with the human experience, grief and loss.
It deserved to be stripped of the awards, but I'm still so immensely conflicted on how I feel about it as an artist

Its supposed to be small as per DE's guidelines to upload but the compression here made it look worse
Why does a 128×128 jpg need to be compressed anyways

The Thornbak rules though, a free weapon that has a catalyst installed is great for new players
