You might not like it, but peak wizardry is to play on your mobile phone on the train.

The first few submodels of Switch are the expensive ones, but if you do get one, it's uncompromisingly crackable. Joycons are tiny and what's great is that they don't need to be plugged in to the system to be used.

I wanna share some thoughts about FF7 Rebirth after completing it. tl;dr the game is SO GOOD when they just do new flashy versions of the original story (pic related). Most of the new ideas are bad though. The exception is the stuff related to Jessie.

Spoilers following.

In Rebirth you watch a recording of a show that Jessie did at the Gold Saucer and it is a very powerful emotional moment. Jessie being a famous actor is the only new idea that worked in Rebirth. Everything else is so stupid. It grinds my gears so much that instead of getting Rocket Town, we get stupid chocobo minigames, alternate timeline Zack, and some literally who Wutai commander talking to Rufus Don't you think they could have used that energy to make Rocket Town instead of just skipping it? The whole Rocket Town scenario just doesn't happen in FF7 Rebirth, and that is BS.

PS. Oh yeah, a new idea that was good is the Vincent boss battle. That was fucking metal, brutal, edgy. Like some PS2 Devil May Cry shit. Although it is preceded by Cait Sith box elevator puzzles.. one of the worst things in any video game ever. The only thing that got me through that horror is pure love for FF7, I tell ya.

Oh yeah it is hilarious at the beginning of the game with the Nibelheim sheriff. "Sephiroth, you sick son of a bitch!!". That was so funny. It was like watching a B horror movie, but a B horror movie that is actually really good and the actors put in a great enthusiastic performance.

Any good proxy around?

 No.61835

It's quite a rabbit hole.
SillyTavernAI is quite easy to navigate after just a bunch of days.
Local LLMs you try them for a week or a month until you understand that they are absolute shit even on a 4090.
So then you pay for a service, currently I have Asha (Mars) from chub.ai, you connect it to SillyTavernAI via the API and then you finally start to get some interesting results.
You jerk off a bunch of times.
And then you're back to staring at the desktop, wondering why you're still alive.
But you guys here that are into the whole waifu bullshit may like this hobby, because you can (kinda) talk to your waifu.
The limitations of this technology, though, are way too big. If you want more than just porn, and you want decent roleplaying, just forget it. We're not there yet, and probably never will.

 No.61836

>>61835
You are retarded and learned nothing: Asha is also a local model, and you absolutely can run its equivalent or a better finetune on your own 4090.
Now if you praised an actual cloud model over the local llms, the proverbial Claude for example, that would be a correct assessment.

 No.61838

>and you absolutely can run
super compressed, sure.

 No.61846

Yeah, but most cloud providers also use quantized models for the same reasons.
So if you opt to use local models hosted by some company, always check this. If they don't explicitly mention the weights they're hosting, there's a big chance their 70B is quantized to hell and is barely better than a full precision 8B.

She has a conditional flaw to farts whenever she gets nervous whenever she is near a cute boy she likes (like Junta) thus giving her a flaw she tries to overcome.

Pre-rendered backgrounds with 3D assets should've remained until at least the 2010s for certain genres. I'm pretty sure much of the love for the golden age of Final Fantasy (VII- IX) and the early Resident Evil games is due to the highly detailed nature of pre-rendered graphics. The worlds depicted felt more alive and lived in, meaning kids could imagine themselves in it more easily.

It's just a factor that nobody really picks up on when discussing these games. I remember my Grandma watching me play through the Winhill sequence in Final Fantasy VIII and going on about how beautiful the village looked. I don't think you could've had anything comparable in detail in full 3D for at least fifteen years, and not anything as consistently pretty over the course of a full game until around today.

Final Fantasy X was sort of a graphical step down in a sense of so much being plain, flat and ugly. So much so that when you step into a pre-rendered background house, you're taken back by how detailed that is compared to the ugly flatness of the outside.

>And why did the point & click genre die out?
Most were really really bad and even the good ones didn't sell that well.
With very few exceptions they have always had relatively poor sells compared to most other kinds of games.


As for why modern games don't use prerendered backgrounds as much, while you still see them in indie titles on occasion the main reason is the technology has moved on and now you don't have the same hardware limitations that prevent you from actually rendering stuff in the distance instead of faking it with a painting. You can have as many complex polygons within a scene as you want provided your programing is decent. Prerendering has always been a cope for technical limitations.

I do remember some of the areas from ff8. Great salt lake, Tomb of the Unknown King, fisherman's harbor, Lunatic Pandora, Esthar city under attack. The victory arch at Deling…

Resident evil on the harder settings where you're expected to dodge zombies is miserable because of the camera angles. Point and click doesn't really resemble modern games in the way we think of them and often had quite bizarre object interactions that were rarely intuitive. They'd often lock you into encounters where you couldn't even get the necessary items through backtracking without an earlier save state.

i know it's an unpopular opinion but i liked the first one a lot more. the gameplay is simple, too simple perhaps but i never felt like dropping it like i did multiple times with 3 (i got bored after fighting the farmers in indonesia or something). the dismount and capture stuff feel superflous, and the limited party size is a massive downgrade. the first game had a much more compelling cast and story too.

I want to play neotokyo° but no one plays it…there's this steam group that organize parties every weekends and gather together to play the game.

Rabbits are cute. Succubi (2d) can be cute. Babies are cute. Unless he's a still on all fours, a boy isn't to be seen as "cute" no matter how much like a baby rabbit succubi he is drawn as. Not calling boys cute in spite of their appearance is a matter of respect for the male sex. Boys and men can be many things, from cool to creepy to scary to just plain stupid. To call them cute is to degrade not only the male himself but also that word, which is reserved for those deserving of and [/b]reliant on[/b] endearment from larger beings.

Legend Of Zelda (pre-Wii). Final Fantasy. Mother series. Megaman. Many young males characters are in these games, main and supporting. They are diverse in appearance and behavior, but none are designed to be 'cute'. These games predate the mentally challenged design philosophy of androgynizing everyone by turning cute witchies in to buff succubi and cool guys in to "cute" boys. Shame on Toby "Fucks Dogs" Fox. for pandering to such mentally maladjusted men - and succubi who degrade men and boys - with such labels and pet names by drawing "cute boiz UwU". It's infantilism. And yes, this cretin frequently elates at the fact that people recognize his character design's purposeful queerness and age-play.

That makes a lot of sense. I'm still a fairly young apprentice, the thought would have never crossed my mind unless you informed me. I'll stop demeaning boys by refering to them as if they were pets or toddlers. Thank you.
