I feel very behind in fantasy stuff. I've only been aware of Litrpg as a genre for a year or so and never read any. Closest I've come is watching some anime or reading California Voodoo Game like 20 years ago.
It is my opinion time for a new mascot. The LiMu Lemur can be the new spongmonkey, but with better teeth.
Lucky. I have several more hours of the year than you. But I'm nominating you as emissary for the New Year.
On the way home this afternoon, someone on the radio was saying to visualize a specific memory vividly. Can you neurotypical people actually do that? Every once in awhile I can see like a flash of a memory if I have the right trigger, but I can't visualize anything on demand.
Reminder: Smarsh is king.
Happy international wombat day.
Makes me think of Return to Zork more than Monkey Island.
After more thought, I decided that I'm going to do mock ups of what some horror movies/miniseries might look like if they were made into an adventure game. Maybe tomorrow I'll have something finished to share.
Sure, I could become that world's version of the Toxic Avenger.
At one point I had considered trying to make a Halloween/Horror game sprite every day this month. Instead I'm going to go with making scenes from movies in a somewhat Day of the Tentacle/Sam and Max style. I'll probably throw in some influence from Drascula: The Vampire Strikes Back.
My brain keeps trying to make it Shreklock.
But maybe someone will at least be inspired to make an adventure game and want to cast you.
First thing I notice on my screen is a banner ad on Spotify saying Voice AI is the future. But which dystopia is it going to be?
This further proves that I will never understand humans.
Fully embrace the theme. Make people think he made the game, then completely change everything.
Don't cross Jessica Fletcher.
Huh, I just paid attention to my page on the book of faces and found that apparently I have a website that's still online. But nothing on it is functional.

Fine. Don't mine crypto either.
No, your graphics don't mention anything about consent or ethics.
Honestly, I have no opinion about mining crypto. I've never had any interest in it and it's not being shoved down my throat in some way every day like generative AI is.
Okay, I'll bite a little. It's not the technology itself that's the problem. If the generative AI is trained 100% on data from willing people, the computers weren't being cooled using massive amounts of water, and people used it ethically then AI would be fine.
So, I've thought about generative AI a bit this afternoon. While it can technically be used as a tool, that's rarely the case. More often it's used in a similar way to a mold for making bootleg action figures. Does it outright steal? No. But the end result isn't "yours" either.
Well, he did try to compare AI to a paintbrush...
I'm not engaging with you. You clearly have your own agenda, which I refuse to feed or listen to.
And assumes that you wouldn't have put in research about something trying to take your job away. Admittedly I know less about the voice side of things, but I have seen a video about a couple whose voices were literally stolen.
Well, that too. But I felt like being snarky instead of witty.
Congratulations? That's like saying Campbell's condensed chicken noodle soup is better than Great Value's condensed chicken noodle soup. Both are low quality and lacking compared to homemade chicken noodle soup.
Okay, I took your challenge. Within the first 10 seconds of the Werewolf one from August 31 it sounds artificial and void of emotion compared to any of the podcasts or Youtube videos I've listened to or watched about similar things.
As of today I'm using a new phrase to more accurately explain how I feel about things. I introduce you to "12 of one and a baker's dozen of another."
A submarine would make a lot of The Secret of Monkey Island go faster...
I'm not sure how much good this'll do, but I know some people follow me from non-adventure game areas. So maybe at least one person might be interested. Who knows?

Canned pastas and Olive Garden are mediocre at best, inedible at worst.
