This is the 4th time in recent memory that I've gone to sleep during ongoing QCS drama and woke up to a dethroned mod.

I should do this more/less often.

Dethroned makes it sound like there was a battle and their star taken.

More often it’s just people stepping down because they don’t want to deal with it.

i'd be willing to be an act-on-reports mod but not if it's going to be like that. yikes

mods sort of act as interlocutors between admins/userbase at large and being an insider in their own forum. so they have to be both the advocate of their own forums and enforcer of outside will. lowtax made a presentation on this lol

Admins Desperate to Retread Wrongs

If I remember this video right he makes mostly good points other than the usual "24 fps is the ideal framerate for anything that isn't a game" take that everyone in the industry repeats.
They're wrong. It'd be sick to have 40fps anime battle sequences, just literally financially impossible and technically extremely challenging (animators have been doing 24fps or less keyed animation for the last 600 years, they'd have to relearn it)
To me it kinda feels like the cgi anime discussion. Most of it does suck, but then you have orange perfectly blending it with traditional animation in hnk and it owns. Likewise the awesome sakuga scenes we all love are "higher framerate" than normal anime scenes. It's plenty good enough but maybe it'd be awesome to have even more frames? Just not feasible
That said all these horrible interpolated anime videos are disgusting and until we have extremely advanced ai that strushg/straight up draws more frames as a real human would it'll never work

Also hobbit hfr was mid but that bad will Smith action movie was REALLY good in the fight and chase scenes. I watched it at 60 but wish I could've caught the 120 screenings.
It's sad that we're not in a 60 fps for action scenes in movie world, it makes the action so much more readable

I POSTED WHAT NOW!?
Please keep ADTRW open so I can lurk a lot and post intermittently about what I’m watching that nobody cares about.

I’m watching Haikyu again while I go on the treadmill. It’s such a good show, but I do dislike the episodes where they’re clearly up against a jobber team and the show wants to make you care about them. “We didn’t practice much, and we came close to giving up, but then we decided to not give up and still got obliterated.” Nobody cares enough for that to get a 5 minute flash back! Use that time to build up Date Tech or Aoba Johsai!

———

Edit: someone in here was also watching Stranger. Season 2 really picked up around episode 7 or 8 when Seo gets kidnapped and it’s been on high gear ever since. It took a while but Season 2 is really good now and I can’t wait to see what happens next.

Animation at a higher frame rate looks good when it was tailored for it, but people who speed up the frame rate (like that FMA clip) and claim it looks better or "Smoother" are idiots.

I've seen videos of a ROMhack or remake or something of Ocarina of Time that makes the game render at 60 fps instead of 20, and it is genuinely unpleasant to look at. I feel the same way about a lot of these 60 fps anime fight scene videos.

The FMA clip is specifically taking the piss, what they did was run it through an interpolation and then remove all of the original frames, leaving only the mushy interpolated frames.

Games are a completely different beast because you're not inventing data that isn't there (like in ai upscale crap) or ignoring the nature of the medium (anime and key frames). The video you posted is horrible though and while I'm not sure why it might be frame timing or just the spastic, ultra fast, repetitive camera movements the person is doing
