I love this method. It gets really nice if you then spawn gpu particles from the ribbons, to have a crazy dissipation effect when you are done with them.

THE VICTORIA LINE REPORT NO 2: DOWN AND ALONG (1965)

Either celebrate games as art, or drop the pretence. There’s not really a middle ground.

make a hive (theres vids on youtube) and try and move em before they settle. V good to have because you harvest the crystal lattice they build with and it's delicious. Way nicer than the store bought stuff. My old neighbour used to bring the extra round but fraggles stole her heart medication 🫤

The guy was very friendly to chat with about it, being used to having people stop him. But I got the impression he didn't fully realise how impressive it is to visual artists.
"You can get on if you like?"
"No, I need reference photos!"
"????"

A deeply human experience that transcends borders... "What the hell was that announcement??"

The steering column is the engine!

There's a guy who drives around my town with one of these from the 60's! He uses it to make firewood deliveries, and when I saw it, I instantly had to ask to take photos! He keeps a spare engine on the back, because it's that temperamental!

Please make this mandatory in all critical workflows immediately.

This is so fucking funny, I've worked with US and UK companies from the UK, and American office culture is *infamous* in Europe in the same way korean or Japanese office culture is to Americans.

I put on a blindfold, spin around three times, and pin the word component... Nowhere close, upside down.

Ahh... The Final Fantasy XII gambit system, yes!

Have a value track up when spinning like this, and after a generous number of successive spins (over a certain velocity) yeet the driver out the car as a fun fail state. 😂

"What ultimately broke me and my Blizzard career was I got called into the CFO's office and he sits me down and he says—he gives me a date which at the time was 2020 and was going to slip to 2021, but at the time it was 2020—and he said: 'Overwatch has to make [redacted] in 2020, and then every year after that it needs a recurring revenue of [redacted]' and then he says to me 'if it doesn't do [redacted] we're going to lay off 1,000 people, and that's going to be on you.' And that was the biggest fuck you moment I've had in my career, it felt surreal to be in that condition."

This is a deranged thing to say to someone wtf. www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/ov...

So you do some decent VFX work, and then leave people thinking you are dishonest and unskilled! Great job.

If you want, share the AI image as your reference or visual target - YOU CAN DO THAT. I have to assume the people posting like this care more about getting likes than jobs.

Firstly, the people you want to like your work are instantly feeling disappointed with the bait and switch you pulled. EVEN if the work is good!

Then, it raises an uncomfortable question of skill: "They know what looks good, because they chose this thumbnail... but they can't actually execute it?

New shitty Artstation behaviour: People who use AI to generate a thumbnail that is way more detailed than their work, and then tag the piece with "#NoAI".

AI video thumbnails are showing up more and more in the VFX community and I can't emphasize how crap it makes you look.
