Using AI For RP Visualization

@Dat Yellow Boi @BrokenPromise more or less stated my thoughts on this. Regardless if you despise AI art or not, people have been "stealing" FCs and other images for roleplay for God knows how long. In the context of roleplaying and nothing else, if people have been fine with taking random images off the internet for their roleplay characters or scenery, then drawing the line in the sand at AI art for roleplay purposes sounds somewhat hypocritical.

That said, most AI art is awful compared to the real thing. It saves you time that you would've spent looking for the perfect picture, yes. But you also get fucked up hands and broken bones a lot of the time. And with anime art in particular, a lot of it is same-ish, same shading, same style, etc. It all looks so much alike to where I rather just use regular, human-made art than AI art.

What shows/movies are you watching?

John Wick 4 is a certified banger go see it and see it on the loudest screen possible because god damn I practically fell out of my chair with how loud it is in the best way

@Fabricant451

Is it Dunkirk loud or is it just loud for the sake of being loud? If that makes any sense. With Dunkirk, you could practically feel the rumbling of planes and other such things in your body. It's the only movie I can really think of off the top of my head where the sound design has had a noticable, personal effect on me when watching it in theaters.

Left Behind: Mulberry Street

Just a heads up: There's a big event going on where I live right now, and I also have some personal matters to attend to so I may have to delay the initial launch.

Left Behind: Mulberry Street

is the deadline this weekend, or will there be a brief grace period after launch? i've been busy this week, but if time isn't on my side i could knuckle down and try get a sheet done today.

@udonoodles

Grace period. Usually I close the RP after I accept sheets, but I figure that there'd still be space for sheets in this roleplay. @nodogs has already mentioned to me about stuff too.

<Snipped quote by Kuro>

I can change things if you want. I do not mind and have ideas of what to replace stuff with.

@Theyra

I don't particularly mind you not changing anything, as I said. Keep it if you want. I just figured to note the similarities between the two characters.

@Kuro In terms of my bandwidth, I intend to manage it by playing my characters in 'arcs', so to speak. Out of the six, I'll probably focus on two at a time, with the others being mostly background. As for Jason, I can certainly understand how he looks... risky. The whole idea was to take a character who absolutely feels like a trope and examine him more deeply: what does this sort of cringelord actually look like in action and what does he actually do once the real apocalypse comes? How much of his prior 'experience' and 'preparation' is actually valid? I betcha the little halfwit is just Jonesing to use his sword collection and all his parkour gear. How quickly does reality destroy the fantasy, or does it? Does he crack? Are there copious amounts of copium? To some extent, Jason was intended as a lampoon of a certain species of metagamey character, but I want to play him with some heart and authenticity as well. I'd definitely hoped to give him one or two crowning moments of awesome amid the trauma and endless humiliation conga and maybe insert some levity while I was at it, but I'd conceived of him primarily as counterprogramming. However, if multiple people feel that he's metagamey and it's a potential cause of unease within the group that you're building, even as deeply excited as I am about this RPG, I'm alright with bowing out as well. I'm easy!

@Force and Fury

You don't have to drop out over a single character lol

That kind of trope style is fine, it's just that it was mentioned to me that people saw Jason as an attempt to cheat the system, like a "haha, look at me, I know how to solve everything" type of character. Something that basically defeated any sort of danger or threat from the get-go, which would also defeat the purpose of the RP. But if you're more intending to go with the "life isn't a video game"-type approach, then yeah, I can give some leeway here.

One night, there was a cannon shot - indicative of a titan spotted somewhere in the outer walls, where small villages and homesteads sometimes sat.

the wall inhabitants when they learn the titans have already breached the walls without actually breaching them:
