two things come to mind: speaking strictly on environmentalism, it was all the rage during the late 80s and throughout the 90s, likely because we had reached "the end of history" and everyone was convinced that all it took to save the planet from moneygrubbing industrialists was conscious liberalism. not a single soul believes that today unless you're particularly retarded or an atlanticist (but i repeat myself), so environmentalism was dropped out of everything once the link between capital and environmental destruction became obvious to everyone, no more captain planet, no more x-men or gi joe PSAs at the end of every episode telling you not to litter, and no sonic that speaks for the trees.

second, the early games worked because it relied on narrative simplicity. this guy is the evil industrialist, and then sonic is a real rebel, tuned to what's cool and what's cool is environmentalism. if you squint he looks like he wears air jordans, that's how cool he is. he's like the lorax if the lorax wasn't a preachy fuck. very easy to parse. the minute you have like the president or three later agencies trying to add political nuance, everything becomes shit. it doesnt work and it has never worked (unless you completely rework the universe but i argue the comics arent really sonic anymore but something else entirely) i cant even fault it for it having monarchy apologia. 06 reached lows so remarkably low that it was unable to even deliver a coherent story, let alone an understandable subtext, i mean it feels like the story was more interested in sonic wanting wanting to fuck, and what represents libidinous fantasies more than wanting to fuck a virginally pure holy madonna, you think it's a coincidence that all the sonic fetish stuff balooned after that? no! everyone's unconscious understood the message, sonic is a fuck beast, he fucked even the virgin mary. there's nothing holy anymore.

this is just to say, sonic, being a marketable company mascot, it's not its own entity. it's always been a figure designed by council, emerging from the zeitgeist like some swamp creature. sonic was an environmentalist because it was cool at the time, and he became an enemy/collaborator of a literal deep state because in 2001 the american mind had melted after 9/11. now sonic persists in its eternal twilight, past its intended demise, vacillating between imaginary sexual object for the absolutely deranged, and nostalgia bait. it is what it is.

Sonic nazis know their favorite franchise is woke and they hate it. Just like UT/DR (Chuddy Fox copers) nazis or even TADC nazis (Trans Jax deniers). They hate the fact they enjoy something woke and they hate themselves for it, so they actively try to deny the franchise is woke and gaslight everyone into ignoring it's themes. That's why we have people in that Sonic Would Love Us group formed by people like Krack, Richard "Diaper Boy" Kuta, Psyco the Coon or the Homophobe duo (AwesomeTime and PurpDerp) harrassing and stalking every LGBT person in the fandom while playing the victim card, when they get called out for it, only to resort to shittier tactics than any of the people they claim are "attacking" them. It's clear just calling them out doesn't work because it just ends with good people getting doxxed and harrassed. If we really want to keep the fandom clean we need to make them shit their pants. Just saying.

Archie is a mixed big, the general consensus is that the comic was mostly shit until Ian Flynn picked up the pencil, and there's more diehard fans who think the comic went to shit when Ian Flynn picked up the pencil. I however thing that Archie, just like the games, is a mixed bag throughout. There's good Penders/Bollers stories and there's bad Flynn stories, but there's also good Flynn stories and shitty Penders/Bollers stories. Though lumping Pneders and Bollers is unfair because Bollers is a better writter and person than Penders. Fleetway clears Archie, though.

That group combined with the laziness of modern sonic twitter is going to kill what creativity this fandom had. I can already feel the autism venting out of sonic spaces as more and more normalfag cattle wander in now that it's "cool" to like sonic again.

I might be going schizo but I feel like we're getting less and less fangames and projects as the years go by.

also better for resources. When you dig out a base you receive resources. When you build up a base you lose resources.

I wish minecraft villagers were more interesting and autonomous life dwarf fortress dwarves. I wish they built their own structures, sought to fulfill their own needs, etc.

>>47409
unfortunately minecraft is entirely built around the player and their whims. Nothing is allowed to interfere with the way player subjugates the world to their will, that seems to the modern mojang game philosophy and even though players criticise them for this. It’s obvious that people don’t like it when creepers or endermans mess with their builds.

if I weren't retarded I would make a minetest mod that works the way I want

that 2nd pic makes it look really cool. I remember having a really big village that I spawned into after coming out of a nether portal that I built inside the nether. I built a giant brick wall around the village and terraformed it to be flat. I destroyed the houses and forced the villagers into underground barracks and we did barracks market socialism. I built a giant market square in the middle of the walled in field where their work blocks were so they could specialize in different stuff. Then I would sell them crops I picked from the fields and fill the chests with a public fund of emeralds that I would occasionally dig into to buy weapons and armor and crossbows from them.

If you want undetected atleast for matchmaking you'll need paid probably try aimware or inuria

how about you learn to play the fucking game like anyone who isn't a waste of oxygen?

idk but probably you will find it on cs.rin.ru

>>47494
don't be mean and anyway hacking is cool in cs since it ruins competitiveness which is good.

In all seriousness, what is the point? If you dont enjoy the game, why bother playing? Or if you want to dominate with odds heavily stacked in your favour, play against bots.

I've tried reading some x-men comics but couldn't get over Cyclops' bulge and magick's ass. Shit is distracting

i remastered my M1912 originally meant to update my mod:

https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/94026

but unfortunately the modder behind the framework i was using for the mod, has a lot of drama going on with some other chuds Xilandro and Hitman and they make compatibility with his weapon framework mod impossible for the stupidest reasons.

so i thought of porting it into PAYDAY 2, but it just got updated to the new 64bit engine

so we're gonna have to wait to see this anywhere because i'm also going through like trans menopause and i literally feel like i'm dying so.

>I want to use a very light-weight LLM to provide very short but organic dialogue about the context they're in, such as the objects around them, what the player is doing and so forth.
maybe you could combine normal-ass decision trees with LLMs, i think a good approach to experiment with would be to procedurally assemble prompts, and then pass them to a tiny LLM and show the result to the player. it's basically dialog trees with extra steps, but maybe there's something cool there i dunno.

btw you wouldn't be the first to bundle an AI gen model, inzoi has stable diffusion built in to make custom assets. the results are horrible shit but it's there. dummies are trying to cancel inzoi for this for some reason

>>47471
>for some reason
>the results are horrible shit
sounds like a good reason

>>47473
ok i said "for some reason" but actually they are not mad at the lousy output but because they thought the stable diffusion model was an inhouse inzoi model and not, uh, stable diffusion, and they thought that was "more ethical". it is actually just a useless feature.

damn i wish i cared about small sized youtube channel's quixotic crusade against whatever entertainment medium they feel has slighted their dumb politics, unfortunately i need to watch the vinny vinesauce weird cat games video instead because it's at the top of my frontpage

1) your brain is as poisoned by culture war as the guy who made this video
2) /v/tards are moved by nothing but spite for whoever they perceive to be the "normies" and will come up with any reason to hate anything associated with them. their words are insincere hot air and do not need any attention

Morality is a spook or something.

i dont think they have crippling debt, if it's anything like the US military they were probably pretty posh to begin with: since piloting has a high barrier of entry, then pilots are usually people who come from well-off families who can afford to dedicate themselves to the entire process. so it is kind of an "art-imitates-life" thing – fox withdrew from corneria's army and even convinced slippy to do so as well, to start his own career in the private market, which is kind of what happens in the US: fighter jet pilots are extremely scarce because they often leave for PMCs or commercial airlines (which strained the US bombing operations in iran). this scarcity seems to be the case for corneria's army as well, since general pepper is desperate to fill in the ranks with extremely expensive mercenaries. if anything fox is a ruthless businessman, deliberately mooching off corneria's army after receiving training from them, and then double dipping by charging them for the favor of filling in corneria's ranks, fully knowing that corneria's defense army is lacking in fighter pilots. if pepper wasn't an imbecile, he would lock his ass up and then make it punishable to defect from the army.

"zero voice acting experience" sounds like ##SCAB## VAs to me

>>47423
Oh no I forgot to mention but the problem isn't even actors, most of the time it's the actual dubbing process with the direction of the acting, now that's the real amateur hour

>>47438
From what I heard lots of dubs in the past were done with no direction whatsoever, voice actor would just be given their lines and told to read them into the microphone.

>>47439
That is why the quality of the dubbing could vary widely, for instance you could end up with a group of unemployed actors from North Carolina dubbing your anime.

>>47437
Modern voice actors are closer to the SCABs, as they literally work for peanuts in exchange for 'exposure' while unionized actors are sidelined simply because it is cheaper to hire YouTubers and e-celebs.
