Not as strong as you'd expect.

For a fun take on this, find yourself a copy of “The Last Ringbearer,” a Russian story about what happens after the Lord of the Rings. It treats LOTR as fantasy-NATO propaganda and tries to find dignity in the collapse of the noble Mordor empire after being perfidiously struck down by Ronald Reagan- err, Gandalf.

What did the grandma say to the frog?

Something racist, probably.
The best part is that modders made a better tool to make songs basically instantly compared to the one the devs used which made the devs very confused on how stuff was coming out so fast.

Maybe this only works in Resident Evil and wouldn't translate well to other games for a reason.

On a spectacle level, not really that amazing. In a technical level, as a mod dev? Apparently pretty absurd.

They have a lot of other mods showcased if you scroll down and every single one seems to be to turn statues or monsters into big titty women. Special shout-out to :nws: Angelina Jolie lookin Night Mother replacer :nws: here.

Personally, that seems like way too much effort, but I can see that the idea is that once you have your workstreams set up, you can get content designed and made pretty quickly.

That said, the plot summary the AI spat out is so generic it was almost tedious to read one paragraph, so there's still scope for humans to be involved.

That is the most generic-rear end RPG content I've ever seen. Double lol that all five character portraits the AI "created" are white and fuckable (this after the author apparently spent quite a bit of time "prompt tuning").

quote:

I took a look at their plans and saw for $30/month, I could get 15 hours of image generation (the free minutes were like half an hour or so). Since the tech is exciting, and this is still much cheaper than commissioned artwork (and less time intensive than drawing it on my own)

That quote is essentially the crux of like 99% of AI "art".

If you are generating images for 15 hours you would seriously be better served learning to draw.

To me, the problem is that, in the before times, you'd interact with the modding community, or the RPG community, or the Baldur's Gate community, or whatever, and pitch your idea to other people who would hopefully help you out free of charge or just for the credit.

The project becomes collaborative and hopefully everyone is enriched by the experience.

Now it's like, I "made" this whole mod by "myself", which isn't even true because AI bots steal a lot of their content.

Everyone talks down Idea Guys and don't want to work with them, right up to the moment where the Idea Guys don't need anyone else anymore.

The thing about Idea Guys is that pretty much everyone is an Idea Guy. Ideas are cheap. I think you could argue that the person who made the mod isn't even an Idea Guy though, because he needed the AI to write the most generic storyline I've ever heard, the idea wasn't even original.
