post-ffxiv story, auryn and qataj settle down on the azim steppe with auryn's family and i think this outfit is the one qataj designs for herself that reflects the fashion of the steppe (while also giving her a lot of heavy fabric because it's a lot colder there than she's used to)

This, the bullshit with "oh we don't use it for ACTUAL art, just concept art inspiration!! All of our art is HANDMADE by HUMANS", it's all just testing the fences like a god damn velociraptor. Trying to push the boundaries bit by bit so it gets easier to accept the NEXT use of Gen AI.

It's very easy:

Just don't. The idea that Copilot or ChatGPT are suddenly essential tools is just buying into the corporate ad blitz.

Games were made just fine (well, relatively) up through...what, 2023? 2024? They didn't suddenly become VITAL for budgets or design docs in the last 2-3 years.

you may think "oh i want to play blm so the first thing i should do is go to the balance and look up the opener" and i am here to tell you that you are wrong. the first thing you need to do is you need to get the biggest hat you can find and glamour that.

Say it with me now- placeholder assets are supposed to be bright and obvious so you DON’T ship with them.

Also it doesn’t matter if no ai-generated assets are in the final executable?? The rising sea levels aren’t gonna be like “oh well no one saw that so the climate change doesn’t count”

"Fuck canon" has its virtues as an interpretive stance, but you've gotta know what the canon is before you can fuck it.
