Development on 'Rise of Genesis' projects mostly halted until further notice. Mainly chilling.

Ignore most of the posts on this account. Focusing a lot of my art stuff to other projects for now. Mainly just joining dumb twitter arguments more for the sake of writing down my own thoughts than for having them seen. Keeps everything else clean from discourse.

If AI people TRULY felt that writing prompts was this passionate, laborous task of artistic expression, you wouldn't be writing prompts. You would be writing stories But the reality is that stories don't sell fast, and blank scraps of writing dont bring easy twitter likes
Agreed. The degree of artistry will still be how much soul you pour into your craft, which may be a brush stroke or a prompt. However, short, one-shot prompts are about as shallow as one-stroke paintings

You can supposedly describe scenes to the detail, expand entire scripts and plotlines, all tediously described to an AI interface, but REFUSE to cut the middleman and sell the "prompt" Because you dont care about the story, you just wanna feel like something you aren't: creative

In terms of overall performance its Poison by a fair bit (Built defensively but no good resistance, w/ poor offense) In terms of effective design compared to how its being built its Ice by a landslide (Glass cannon type trying to be bulk??) If you say Bug you're insane
The fact that nobody can agree on what the worst type in pokemon is, just serves to prove that they’re all pretty good

I blame the abundance of Bug/Poison types for shifting the blame to Bug when Poison is a nothing type carried by beating out Fairy I do not understand TPC's obsession with making a type with zero resistances and 4 super effective targets including DRAGON into this weird tank

This is awesome, anybody can code! You don't even need to know how! Learn what I'm doing? Nah man the AI knows! If I run into a hurdle I just get the AI to finish it Bugfixing? Sharing resources? Streamlining? Dude, if it doesn't work I just ask the AI to do it again, its easy!
i got excited for a second

"AI Coding" is this vast gray area where technically speaking people have been automating code shit for decades now but there's a stark difference between "Yeah I let the AI complete tedium for me" and "This entire project is AI and I have no idea how it works or how to fix it"

The reason something like the vibecode mods were awful is because its functionally useless. The people making them had no idea how they worked so they functioned like shit, couldn't be fixed, and there was no knowledge to be passed on for people to make LEGIT mod versions

The problem with AI Futurism is sacrificing the human value. If AI can make anything, and anybody can use AI, what is the point of the middleman? Why use YOUR product when I can make my own? For code there's an answer: Someone HAS to understand how it actually works to polish it

I'm TRIPLING down on this and saying that there is no such thing as the "casual fanbase". Who ARE the casuals? If its not the comp players making slander or the oc/stan fandom then who's left? The romhack players? Those guys are too busy waiting 3 years for another Emerald hack
My scalding, boiling take is that all the Showdown/Champions memes ARE the casual fan memes. The pokemon PLAYER space has shifted towards almost an FGC type community Its the pokemon FANDOM that doesn't make new memes cause tbh they really don't interact with the core series

Like the "porn jokes" are just years old animemes reddit humor that every fandom account zaps back to life every week to doom over and the last time I saw a God Bidoof meme was when Miiverse still had live servers. Who is this "rampant fanbase" yall keep mentioning????

why do competitive pokemon fans pretend like theyre any funnier than casuals

Pokemon competitive is a changing landscape with constant meta changes that "allow" for more RELEVANT jokes to be made But that can't be said for the main series where nothing really interesting happens. The fandom creators just focuses on their chosen little guy and thats all

And the problem is with most modern memes being coated in slander, god forbid you bully someone's "chosen little guy" and now its an issue of media literacy Thats where all the last Geeta, Nemona, Kieran, or Arven jokes died so now all they got is recycled tumblr memes and porn

Before you post or respond to miscellaneous videogame reviews online, make sure to ask yourself: "Was this review written as an analysis of a current product, or as a comparison to a prior milestone?" If its the latter, its not worth it. Just move on.

Reviews based on comparison are very rarely valid, and this almost NEVER applies to any game with a previous title more than 3 years away Identity death can be real but you can't play the same game multiple times for 20 years. 80% of the "greatest classics" were mixup titles.

I've already seen a dozen AI mods on the timeline from shit like this to rpgs and even fighting games. And its the saddest most shameless shit imagineable because you can FEEL the lack of passion It's just lame vibecoders slapping toy parts together for nothing but twitter likes
WTF how is this a terraria mod how did they do this!?

At least the slop art generators were just greedy assholes who do it for money This is pure hate of the game laziness. Zero benefit to themselves or anyone else and does nothing but just kill modding passion by infecting workshops and site pages with barely functioning codescrap

Yes bro by Canto 8 -10 you should have an actual team after dozens of hours of playing this game and getting resources I could think of nothing worse for a new player experience than 12 cantos of LCCB and RCorp in the loadout

I feel like so much of the "powerscaling" people are blind to the actual SCALE of content in this game. Just because you caught up and got stuck in MDE Purgatorio doesn't mean there isn't still 30 hours of story to wade through including 5 cantos worth of 'Rosepanner viability'
