@GameArtConnect @JohnBroomhall @TopScorePodcast Mr. John Broomhall was what made me decide on my current career path. Thank you, sir!

@MythNix I don't understand the hate at this point. He's not out there doing literally nothing.

This is why the retirement tour is a bad idea. Kareem and Jordan were NOT treated like this. Kareem was swept in his last series. You think this is how they saw him out? It’s really, really weird behavior.

@SlickSeabeast @bizlet7 it's called loyalty

@bizlet7 Cats are too emotionally dependent on the owners, to be called alpha. Waiting at the door until you're home, stress response due to vacation, etc. Strong need for routine. They're part prey animal.

Cats actually are alpha males which is why women adore them and superior men identify with them. - like you on their terms not yours - blow you off when you call them and don’t feel like coming over - demand you cater to their needs and we straight up tell you to make my food now - chill until shit goes down and then it’s on.

@AppealingGames It would make zero sense for them to turn on the very players who love this game most. ah but they DO that

#Snowbreak Hello everyone, By some miracle… I hope this message finds you. (Though I’ll be honest—I’m just a small voice with no real followers, pouring my heart out into the void.) After countless sleepless nights of discussion, research, and honest reflection about Snowbreak, I’ve reached a conclusion. I have decided, with every fiber of my being, to stand by Amazing Seasun Games no matter what storms come. Because if you truly stop and feel it in your chest… it’s painfully obvious they would never choose to censor their own beloved creation. There’s a gun held to their heads—figurative, but no less real—and they’re fighting just to survive. My heart breaks for them, and for every player who’s fallen in love with this world. Yet right now, we’re all carrying the same heavy uncertainty in our hearts: 1. Is this censorship truly just a bug? 2. Will the interactive scenes that made our hearts race still be part of our future? 3. And if it isn’t a bug… will they have to change the current and future outfits we’ve grown to cherish? We’ll know soon—on the next bug fix or official word. If it was all a terrible glitch and they restore everything… then we can breathe again and celebrate together. But if it wasn’t… then we have only one path forward, and it’s one that makes my voice shake as I say it. Snowbreak’s community—our community—must come together like never before. We need to stand shoulder to shoulder and send one clear, unbreakable message to anyone who dares attack our game: You do not mess with us. The modding community will rise as one, hearts on fire, and show the world that “we don’t give a damn” about anyone trying to tear down something we love so deeply. We will protect it with everything we have. I believe—truly believe—that Amazing Seasun Games still has hope (if this isn’t just a bug). And that hope is us. We are the ones who can help carry them through this. So let me ease every worried heart right now, the way I wish someone would ease mine: THEY WILL NEVER BAN PLAYERS FOR UNCENSORING THE GAME. Never. 1. The uncensored files are already sitting right there in the game folder. 2. There have been zero—absolutely zero—reports of anyone being banned for modifying graphical details. 3. It would make zero sense for them to turn on the very players who love this game most. And if… and this is the biggest “if” they ever did start banning us in the future, we all know in our hearts it would only be because of that same gun to their heads. In that moment, we modders will do what we’ve always done best: avoid touching the game folder (ahem, XXML… ahem, 3DMigoto), breathe life back into the game for every end user, and spread the word so no one has to lose the experience they fell in love with. I was recently told that Snowbreak just hit #2 on Bilibili. Let that sink in. Even if the worst happens and censorship lingers for a while, there is no way this game is heading toward EOS—not when it’s touching hearts and climbing charts like this. Our love for it is too strong. Our community is too strong. That’s all I have to say for now, from one worried but hopeful player to all of you. The mods I’ve installed are active and ready. I’ll be streaming the uncensored experience live on kick.com/appealingbased…, or X keeping the spirit alive for anyone who wants to join. Big thanks to @AyakaMods and every modding community fighting to keep our game uncensored and alive. We’ve got this. Together. Snowbreak isn’t just a game—it’s our story. And we’re not letting go. ❤️

@brockpierson when I was very young I thought it was a penguin.

You see this logo. What is the first thing that comes to mind?

@LittleBellowski @Zenic_W @J0hnSemen lol Tectone

@Zenic_W @J0hnSemen Pretty sure he was doing this during WuWa’s launch as well; not sure if he was pro/anti Kuro, but I remember the name being a member of Tectone’s community (I believe a mod as well at one point) during that time.

Shylily has returned to playing NTE after believing the developers’ response was genuine, assuming they planned to replace “all gen AI assets” in the game. However, the devs only confirmed replacements for two instances, one of them was replaced by another gen AI image. #NTE

@Garfieldist @FiadhBaikal I highly doubt that given the amount of support she has just from turning down the sponsorship. but yeah we can be willfully blind

@Tremingway @FiadhBaikal Omfg you people are fucking retarded... She's not built her brand in any way of being anti-AI... She could play AI and people literally wouldn't give a fuck. Just show how fucking ignorant you morons are.

This.. this has to be a joke right??? 1. This doesn't affect her job whatsoever, she can still hire artists and she herself is not an artist. 2. People LOVE self checkouts, and use it A LOT. Never seen anyone complain about it. 3. She sounds entitled because the artists in the game itself were okay to use AI, they didn't give two craps about it. They cut corners on the most unimportant parts of the game so they can work on the important stuff and put all their effort on important stuff The AI was temporary assets. I see NO ISSUE in using AI as temp assets. Everyone is blowing it out of proportion.

@KiraAurora_VT this is a closed-minded take. of course you can learn from AI-generated work. if it is ugly or bad and you recognize it, you find out what NOT to do.

Anyway, slop GenAI can never create or teach you anything, it just vomits what exists in a Frankenstein sludge. It deprives us of seeking to learn & grow on our own. We progress through curiosity, leading to creativity, & creation. If we stop doing that, we're truly doomed.

@Ryakishou you know what, actually, you're absolutely right

@Tremingway Completely missed the point of what i said but ok cool

Sometimes i wonder if i did smth wrong or why is it that im always the „friend“ that gets left out , never gets invited, never gets checked up on, that people dont care about, is always the side character and purposely made to feel like the unimportant third wheel they dont want around… Why is it always me having to deal with this…? Im always so excited to get to hangout and ready to have a good time, i bring positive vibes but somehow im always left out and unwanted and unloved…. I dont wanna try anymore man im tired… guess ill just isolate again…

@daiichinobakuda @elochitv @Kreampuff__ 800 bucks would set me up for a few years, not gonna lie. i'd do everything in my power to keep that kind of client.

@elochitv @Kreampuff__ how does someone like this end up getting paid 800 bucks upfront for their work? life is so strange sometimes. Like the thought that they managed to create the conditions to scam people like this alone is baffling to me. Were they like an extremely known, underground kino artist?

Pls just do my art or refund me at this point, Kream.

@meliscarlettx @Comrade_Del it's also possible the sponsor hasn't sent any money yet and won't until after the uhh okay day 1 you get paid

@Comrade_Del like i dont care about anything but one thing... DID MOUSE RETURN THE MONEY FROM THE SPONSOR??? cause imagine say all this bla bla bla but still got the money she said she cancel the sponsor but i did not hear i return the money etc

New goalpost arriving in 3, 2, 1... xD So people point out Mouse's hypocricy of having an issue with the AI in this game but not the other games she got sponsored by. Defenders say that's not actually the issue but rather how NTE lied to her about AI in the game. Now the confirmation that the devs actually DIDN'T lie and openly stated they'll have Gen AI in their game before. So what's the next goalpost then? Also, again, we only have her word to go by. Did her team really ask about AI? Did the NTE team really responded like that? There's no actual proof, just her word. I can say that Kojima himself called me up because we have our birthdays on the same day to wish me a happy birthday... so you'll have to believe me? Either way, blindly believing her word without proof or any actual context just because she's famous is dumb. I'd like to see their official response to her claims, if they'll ever make one.

@AINO_X_Channel @Izbiski_ @Thaitop_TwT @FiadhBaikal @GilbertRueger I genuinely dont even wanna bother pointing out how many layers of irony this is behind but you probably cant even count, ask for help

@Izbiski_ @Tremingway @Thaitop_TwT @FiadhBaikal @GilbertRueger Sometime tells me he probably has never been to a book store.

This whole AI shit is so stupid AI will start actually taking jobs away from artists if this continues Not because AI is somehow better than human art On the contrary, I think AI art is soulless and lazy, boring even sometimes. It's been overused and I rather see a piece someone worked and crafted with their hand for 10 hours rather than a piece made by prompt. That being said. I rather spend 10 minutes on a prompt rather than deal with all of this drama because this is EXHAUSTING The only thing that AI excels at is not making any drama while doing a decent job at art too. An artist I adored refused me because we have different views, so instead of paying her money for a piece I really wanted specifically from her I just made something similar in AI. Good job artists, you're killing your own freaking employment by making drama out of a nothing burger.

@Amoirsp @hautecleres i think my latest setup for fire is just berserker opus (level 220 lol) or manadiver exo so my fire setups are extremely outdated. like 3 years old. anything at this point is an improvement.

@Tremingway @hautecleres Higurashi. General (correct) advice was “don’t force buying 150 gm just to fire” (Same logic to getting atum such as annitix) For me personally I never liked phoenix torch mana diving. I inherently like doing charge attack so for me it was a no brainer.

Yknow I said this as a joke last month but the announcement of fire GW really did change the GBF community 🫠

@MoonNonaOG I was actually wondering about that claim myself.

Nah yall pissing me off saying starrail, zzz. Wuwa and ark knights Endfield have GEN ai assets in game but then cant prove shit. I’ve PERSONALLY looked into each game and not a single one of them have Gen Ai art in game. Ontop of that the Director for star rail and ZZZ has EXPLICITLY said that the studio prioritizes HUMAN CREATIVITY FOR THEIR CORE ART and that the TEAM believes in creating art from THEIR OWN MINDS. WOW isn’t that something 😁.

@Amoirsp @hautecleres which 150 gm is this? I myself am not a fire enjoyer, i even bought a hraes and cant even really take full advantage of it because i still cant fight hexa yet

@Tremingway @hautecleres Good points but in the case of fire it literally was “no alternative” Complaints about needing a 150 gm and a summer 2025 unit primarily excellent in hl can be a bummer For me personally I went and got both and went from a 0% fire hl player to preferring fire 100% of the time.

@hautecleres @Amoirsp it's honestly not the fault of whoever makes the guides if i'm missing a few parts.

@Amoirsp Like I understand being frustrated not being able to clear harder content. I understand being frustrated when you look up a guide and can’t exactly follow it all the way through because you’re missing a few parts. But isnt the whole point of GBF to ask others for help?

@exQUIZitely and I have to add that the music to this day has not been topped. I have made it my life's mission to make video game music worthy of comparing to it.

@exQUIZitely i wasn't the best at it but it was simple enough. bring stuff from point a to point b, run over competitors' vehicles with trains

MicroProse had a legendary run: 30 years from 1982 to 2002. And yes, I am aware they "lived on" via being bought by other companies, and "revived" now.
