An Update - Mid-October
YouTube video by Solgeon Solray
youtu.be
An update.
Key notes:
- Been having health problems. Videos will take longer to make.
- Heading into the holidays. Videos may become further in between.
- Thinking about having the second video for the week be something other than DDO.
- Made an Artificer for the B-Side's B-Side.
Stay safe!

Wish there was less of a culture of looking aggressive in North America. I'd like to have more vehicles in cute shapes instead on the streets.

Ridley Scott made a masterpiece with ALIEN. There is no disputing that and he deserves immense praise for it.
But it is worth remembering that he walked into a project that already had an immensely talented team of creatives on it during preproduction...

When did we decide that Ridley Scott owns the ALIEN franchise? He didn't come up with the story (Dan O'Bannon & Ronald Shusett) or write the script (O'Bannon), nor did he design the creature or sets (H.R. Giger, Ron Cobb, Chris Foss). Scott directed the hell out of it, but he doesn't own it...

One thing I'll say again: if you can, localize your prices. It goes for books, indie games, etc. Everything that is sold in a global marketplace can benefit from taking into account that 20 USD is different for USians and Brazilians.

In case anyone ever asks, I *have* written a material generator and a music generator for Eldritch 2, but that's not AI. That's me taking all the things I personally know about those things, and writing my own tools to make the process a little faster and easier for myself. It's still 100% me, baby.

If you can't come out right now, please don't hate yourself.
One day, the meaning of labels will disappear.
Please love yourself as you are.
The one who can cherish yourself the most is yourself.
Because that is your strength and beauty.

A big reason proc gen feels so different to AI in spite of superficial similarities is exactly this!!
Proc Gen systems reflect the interests and creative preferences of the tool makers, whereas AI is catch-all sludge that reflects no specific point of view. It’s not remotely the same!

Tonight...
I need to find tokens and proxy cards for that deck I just built. The proxies being for the double faced cards.
Then, I need to edit the next No Man's Sky video.
The next two weeks will have one NMS, and one DDO per week. Then, I'll get back to doing two DDO vids per week.

More common guild facts that I keep thinking about:
A lot of guilds didn't allow work to continue after the sun had set, because it made for shoddier craftmanship
Which means workers in the middle ages had more humane work hours than most of us today

I find that there’s usually a direct line between people who habitually post unattributed artwork and AI boosterism. Like, if they already act like images just appear out of the ether and have no provenance, they’re also very likely already openly hostile to artists.
