Transformers teaches us that AI can be both good and bad, but always powerful.

I wonder if Gygax was doing what we'd today call "trolling"; writing something deliberately provocative to get a reaction from people. If so, then going by the lenght of this thread and the other bruhaha on the net, he's being a pretty successful troll even from the grave. CR 18 Greater Undead...

Why not? It would be free money for Larian.

I'm not so sure about that last part. The added work turned what was a pretty generic representation of Jesus into a world-famous painting and tourist attraction that has generated tens of thousands of euros in revenue for the local community. Anyway, today one could have used an AI model with...

My speculation: It's Icewind Dale 3, built on the BG3 engine licenced by WotC. If Icewind Dale 3 is successfull, the team will move on to make BG4 with the experience they have gained.

Only "much they think they can crush out of you" matters. The actual cost of production only matters when there's multiple suppliers of a product, and I have to option to buy from the supplier who offers the lowest price, ie. the one who accepts the lowest margins. In a competitive market, the...

I'm going by the market theory of value, which is the only one that's relevant in daily life as long as we live in a market economy.

You're not Chris Cocks, by any chance?

Veilguard has apparently sold about a million copies, which sounds good until you consider it is a game that likely cost several hundred million dollars to make. At this point it doesn't seem like it's going to come close to earning back its budget.

What does "illrigger" even mean?

Downloading copyrighted images from the net is copyright infringement, while generating AI art isn't. So if you find it ethical to obey the law then you should go with the AI.

Yeah it turned out looking really nice. Though it wasn't what I originally aimed for, I tried to get a picture of Strahd lifting an unconscious woman in his arms, like in the cover for the old Ravenloft box set. Prompting for art is still pretty random even with the latest models, that's part of...

Some vintage movie posters from cool fantasy movies of the 80's and 90's: And let's not forget my favorite rap music album of all time!

BTW: What do you guys in this thread hope to achieve by writing the same things over and over?
