That is absolutely a “confused apprehension” pose I’ve seen done before by plenty of human artists. Maybe fuck off wit this dumbass discourse if you don’t even know the signs of AI, instead of accusing artists of being fake. That’s fucked.
A lot of 2d games are done in 3d engines these days anyway, because it gives “free” parallax, depth buffering and masking, hardware accelerated compositing etc.
So it’s all the work of hand-drawing animation frames with all the complexity of rigging and mapping in 3d.
Enter the Gungeon and the Shovel Knight series are two examples that come to mind.
What’s up with the dude handing the kid a pen right after without even looking, like they know each other and this action was expected? Is that CEO the kid’s dad or something?
Because that changes the situation a lot from “gross capitalists do anything for personal gain and must be stopped” to “dad snags hat from his kid but it doesn’t matter because they’re all going home on the same plane, probably a private one because gross capitalists do anything for personal gain and must be stopped“.
A serious answer: there are some far-right groups who are extremely anti-government and would like to see it overthrown regardless of their current political leanings, for a multitude of different reasons; some assume they will seize power for themselves, some hold perceived grievances against the state and feel it must be destroyed in retribution, and some wish to usher in some kind of libertarian utopia.
From my understanding they aren’t really that large in number, but the concern is that high tech weaponry could mean the size of their ranks is less of a limiting factor as to how much damage they can cause.
Imagine they bomb electrical substations, or take out every fuel tank at a natural gas depot at once, or fly a shape charge into a politicians head at 200km/hr like in that one Black Mirror-like short video someone did.
That really depends on how deep the rest of them have gotten their claws into the controls
Maybe Trump won the election fair and square but do you think they won’t try to rig for JD Vance? With all the other shit they’re doing grabbing the headlines, what kind of “boring” administrative shit have they fucked with that the press is too busy to even cover?
Also, for those who were not aware: some Switch 1 physical cartridges also did the “just a key card” thing. It’s not new, it’s just what Nintendo recommends for games that are too massive to fit on a cartridge and the publisher doesn’t want to pay the cost of manufacturing that much ROM into them; it’s a lot more now that Switch 2 runs actual modern AAA titles at all (IMHO it should still be zero - but this is a big part of the reason we got here)
Today, so-called Lemmy “users” (or, as I am known to call them, LOSERS), very BAD PEOPLE, all of them, voted down an account which, in my estimation, may be one of the GREATEST posters on the platform. Almost, and it’s rare that I say this, better than me? Who knows, it’s possible, he’s that good. Totally UNFAIR and UNJUST, and not even the weak and powerless moderators will step in. WHO WILL END THE MADNESS? Very sad, very unfair and very RIDICULOUS situation!
Liberals are just right wingers who like gay rights. You’re still going to get billionaires with outsized power over society that way.
In America, all news media jams down your throat that “the left” is the liberal position; when yeah it’s left of fascism but it’s still right-of-center
He’s talking about the studio execs
