Was trying to figure out a shape for a golem factory, but kinda got carried away in the concept and messed it all up, gonna start over.

This is not a 3d model since besides the obvious mangled left hand the supposed transparency grid is full of visual errors. In total the more you try to prove the legitimacy of your supposed workflow, the worse it gets for you.

So that was initially my first idea. After getting the reference from Pinterest, I tried using a bunch of 2D to 3D sites to generate a render to paint over but without the correct lighting information the best I could do didn't really look how I liked + my blender knowledge is.m.

@BigMoldyOne @Fightincowboy @adbrad90 Then unfortunately your best bet is either sifting through the user reviews for a general sentiment or finding a specific writer/-s who tend to do decent work.
One stop shop for objective reviews for games of all genres didn't, doesn't and won't exist for obvious reasons.

Genuine question, did IGN fuck your mother over the kitchen table on Christmas morning or something because this level of obsession is ridiculous.
Y'all bitch up and down about how irrelevant and bad IGN is and then every review y'all become professional dick riders.

Maybe if subnautica 2 had a tongue battling mini game with fish it could've gotten a higher score

Bro why has Taylor Lorenz become AI’s biggest defender

@BigMoldyOne @Fightincowboy @adbrad90 I don't know, go take a look and actually read some of the reviews, dunce, or are you waiting for someone to spoonfeed you the list of "the good ones"?

@Fightincowboy @adbrad90 Where are the reliable journalists, exactly?

@Jonathan_Blow @timsoret @alightinastorm The elusive wave of vibe coded games:
"if" and "when", but never "is".
English
@timsoret @alightinastorm According to "robot", what game *couldn't* be vibe-coded, and what is the difference between that and this?
If any game can be vibe-coded, why are the very few examples of vibe-coded games just complete trash that players don't want to touch?
English
the guy who hates on vibe coding the most
produces a game which could be vibe coded
couldn't wish for a better timeline

@Sammmarrive @thatdoesnotrock @NEEMOAHTOAD @zombiemakeover I'm not interested in your myriad of reasons for why you don't consider this a game nor in your goal post shifting There's nothing new to add to this discussion since 2012, and everything I see right now is just shit slinging.
Don't like the game? Don't play it.
English
@Mac_silmac @thatdoesnotrock @NEEMOAHTOAD @zombiemakeover People were still pissed. And the studio also came forward, unlike here. Also I’m not judging the game in itself, even though I could bcs a less than 4 hour adventure where you barely interact with the game isn’t what I expect in any real game, but the marketing tactic used.
English
Lmaoooo this is fine! Like idk man it was cute why is it causing Gamergate 2.0? There’s literally been dozens of games released in the last decade with the same type of tone and approach to interactivity as this idk why ‘this’ was the game that caused everyone to lose their shit
Matthew@NEEMOAHTOAD
About to make history and be the first person on Twitter to talk about this game having actually played it
English
@Sammmarrive @thatdoesnotrock @NEEMOAHTOAD @zombiemakeover Please don't "trust me bro" - these were fringe discussions which died down relatively quickly because general reception of the game was extremely positive.
Here the negative reception is visible only on social media - people who actually played the game rate it extremely well.
English
@Mac_silmac @thatdoesnotrock @NEEMOAHTOAD @zombiemakeover People were pissed that it was being passed as indie believe me, they were even more when it took all the awards KCD2 could’ve had (yknow the game actually made by a small and passionate studio). The difference is that E33 was an appreciated game, with good mechanics, design, etc
English
@dedosmarcsello @DevteamL > studio of 12 devs
small indie team but.. somehow have money to buy big pack of famous licensed music
English
I don't get the Mixtape discourse.
Games can be deep gameplay, small cinematic experience with one button, easy, hard, whatever.
Categorizing what should be interactivity is just shrinking the variety.
Play Elden Ring or Firewatch. It's cool in their own ways.
English
@thatdoesnotrock @Sammmarrive @NEEMOAHTOAD @zombiemakeover As if its downfall is just one more goal post shift away. People made up their mind and are trying to justify their negative stance no matter what.
And all of that because of a single review they don't agree with, by an outlet they "totally don't care about".
Laughable.
English
@thatdoesnotrock @Sammmarrive @NEEMOAHTOAD @zombiemakeover Apart from fringe discussions, don't remember as many people being upset at Expedition 33 getting Best Debut Indie title - people were cool with it. However with Mixtape every single little thing is being scrutinized to the highest degree.

@TheArkaneRealm A Schroedinger's games journalist: can astroturf a game which checks all the correct boxes into the stardom with a singular review, and at the same time powerless being without any sway because the general public stopped valuing the opinions of games media.
English
The fact that Mixtape (a glorified animated feature masquerading as nothing more than a walking sim) is getting perfect review scores (not at all an astroturfing campaign btw) from gaming journos, while those same journos have gone out of their way to paint Pragmata in a negative light when it’s nothing more than an awesome game with an extremely wholesome father/daughter dynamic is the perfect summation of why we don’t hate games media enough, or the media in general.

Think this tweet indicates that sometime between last year and now everyone's brains in the gaming discourse got melted to the core, and now we get opinions like this from absolute nobodies blowing up, masquerading as something well thought through. Riveting timeline...

Given the context of this now clearly being an industry plant, the ambiguity of decades in the aesthetic, aimlessly floating through spaces including a two-way garage leading into a tennis court, I'm gonna go out on a limb here: I think this sequence was modeled on an AI video.

@ShiroKiyoko @puppycelebrity It's ok to be wrong as guy who says Star Fox is the most replayable game ever made. Probably not your first time being wrong on a given day.
English
@puppycelebrity It has been brought up a lot, yes. To show that it's not doing well. Because it's bad and no one wants to pay to play it.
But hey it's doing better than Concord so that's something. Good job, Annapurna, company that has published ~50 games and only 3 were any good.

@MDSGrumpyPants @hyxkkimxru @Kebule420 ???
I quite literally have because there never will be a universal metric to grade games fairly and objectively without missing out on the key metric of overall experience which will vary by design.
Enjoy being unable to attain your utopian grading system.
English
@Mac_silmac @hyxkkimxru @Kebule420 Then you should also be able to acknowledge how mathematically flawed they are.
English
@MDSGrumpyPants @hyxkkimxru @Kebule420 Newsflash: game reviews will never be an objectively quantifiable thing. If that sets you off, that's a you problem, not everyone else's.
English
@Mac_silmac @hyxkkimxru @Kebule420 Just cause some game
Magazine in 2009 got paid to give a game a 10/10 doesn’t make it objectively true or mathematically correct
English
@MDSGrumpyPants @hyxkkimxru @Kebule420 That's your own arbitrary metric that no one else follows. 10s were given out throughout videogame history but never taken. If you think that there should be a singular 10/10 video game, go make your own outlet with your own quality metrics.
English
@Mac_silmac @hyxkkimxru @Kebule420 10/10 implies perfection no game can achieve that score, and if it did no game would be able to go higher without re evaluating the score given to the game.
