Highschool being a glory years isnt an exclusively Japanese thing. Im work in Japan in corporate environment but its also not particulalry any more soul crushing here than anywhere else except I can see Mt. Fuji taunting me from the office window.

Smug loving mountain
Seems to me like that's more "I have a nice view from my office" and less soul-crushing, but I'm not there, I guess. At least it's better than another gray rectangle office building?

Can't say I know anything about Bible Black, but I think senior high school in Japan runs up to age 18.
Most of my friends were 18 by the time they graduated. I was always one of the youngest in my class due to having a September birthday.

I also don't know anything about BB, though, and "technically legal" porn is still kinda skeevy anyways, so :shrug:

The worst thing about the bethesda launcher is that unlike their games they couldn't let the community do their work for them and fix it.
Which is why Fallout 76 was such a huge flop. Online means no mods (because people will make mods that are just weapons that hit the damage cap), but no mods means that the unfinished, buggy mess they release will forever remain an unfinished, buggy mess.

gently caress EA. I know this is an unpopular opinion
I can't tell if this part is serious or not. Most of the opinions I've heard about EA puts them right around Ubisoft levels of bad, and if anything, the opinion that they should leave game development to better companies seems to be the more popular opinion in my experience.

e: ^^ And then it sold poorly and gave them an excuse to say, "See? This is why we weren't making a sequel."


Wait, what's wrong with Ubi? All I know is that they're putting out almost the exact same game each year for Far Cry and that Assassin's Creed was the same and now it's the same but different.
Ubisoft is infamous for bad DRM which can and will frequently lock legitimate buyers out of games they purchased, while not actually doing much to stop pirates, who break it over their knee fairly quickly, iirc.

My dad says that if you trade ninjas for one with the katana you can skip the shogun getting assassinated after you get the blade, allowing you to re enter the castle later and use sumo on an oxcart to add the first emperor to your roster.
Does he work for Nintendo, though? He's not a reliable source otherwise.

no but it was also only MMMMMMMM because it was a test placeholder for checking the maximum possible character width, for the purpose of measuring where to divide the hud
I thought most designers tended to use "WWWWWWWWWW" because in most fonts the captial W is wider.

reminds me of the fantastic choice you make early on in Saints Row IV: Cure Cancer, or End Hunger?
At least there's an equivalency there; you could easily pose that as an ethical/moral question in a philosophy class and get tons of arguments for both sides.

Also notable is the way the ocean just kinda sits where it is and ripples a bit, instead of rising in fury and tearing asunder the puny works of those who dare to trespass upon it (a favourite hobby of the actual ocean).
All you have to do is appease Poseidon with a little blood sacrifice, it's not so difficult. People forget about that step these days is the problem.

The problem with LLMs is that they're basically confabulation engines. They can't not make things up. They don't know they're lying, they just have no concept of truth. This can work fine, in theory, if a player isn't going off the rails, but holy poo poo will they go full steam off a cliff alongside they player if the player is being deliberately antagonistic or they are just confused.

You can't really remove "hallucinations" from an LLM without making it just a text dump machine, because making things up is the entire point. I guess you could train an LLM on solely a complex and rich fully built out collection of text related only to the world you're building, so they don't have any other internal concepts to draw from, but lol at that happening.
Also if you're going to write the loving Fantasy Encyclopedia Britannica to train your AI NPC generator on so that it won't break verisimilitude you might as well just write actual NPC dialog. :shrug:

Like it might be useful if you're making a game set in Middle-Earth or the Forgotten Realms or something like that, but if you're making your own setting you drat well better have like 30 years of Lore™ to feed this thing.
