Unpopular opinion? The games industry has been so obsessed with making everything super realistic at the expense of actually making games fun. Its great to see SSM giving Laufey some hangtime and bending the rules of realism for the sake of fun. The art is beautiful as always🔥

@jstubbles @FredsFarm247 Yeah you definitely cant really trust people that are peddling their own products. The main thing is balance as you said. Avoiding too much sugar and canola oils is generally healthy. Often, but not always, less ingredients is better, but junk food here and there is fine

@jstubbles @FredsFarm247 Hmm, but does that mean you feel what he's saying in the video is inaccurate?

Epic Games laying off 1000 people today should remind you of one thing No amount of late nights, overtime, or genuine care for the company you work for will save you Work for yourself, build for yourself At least if it ends, you have control of it and it wasn't a surprise

This is actually amazing and if AI gets used for things like this, hell yeah. Not to take away our creativity and purpose, but to literally save lives and give us more purpose

@andrewpprice Holy shit, this would be game changing for Hollywood, movies, TV shows, you can change the shot and DOF at any time after filming. Kind of scary to think about the security implications for security cameras and tracking in public spaces also...

Here's what happens when you take a 19th century painting and transform it into a real-time 3D environment fit for a fantasy medieval game. Introducing River Town: Laundry Day, our studio's latest project, inspired by Christian Friedrich Mali's oil painting "Wash Day Before a Small Town." Built in #UnrealEngine with assets created in #Blender, our goal was to capture what made the original painting feel alive. River Town includes a mix of hand created, sculpted, and textured assets, with modular building elements, overlaid with tessellated Megascans materials. Materials were altered and customized to capture the style and atmosphere of the original artwork.
