Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

I've never understood the people that do this in a world where there are professionals making ludicrously high quality productions using better models...

nah most of them are using SFM, which runs on a game engine. Meaning game quality models. In fact it's pretty likely anyone making 3D chun li content uses the same model, as a lot of the professionals focus on animation and using models made by others, and a lot of those models are based on game rips.

a lot of those models are based on game rips.

This was a sticking point for getting Judgement a PC port. The actor didn't want it going to PC because he and his agency knew that people could just rip out the assets, which look exactly like him, and generate new works with them.

You can rip assets from any game if you're dedicated enough. All you need is a not-encrypted dump.

I still disagree with that decision, like he's a public figure regardless of what happens he's producing work and putting his name to it. If people really wanted to, they'd find a way to use his likeness, PC port or not.

They don't want ludicrously high quality productions using better models. They want Chun-Li. And under their control.

This isn't my thing, but I mean, you like what you like. It's like asking why anyone reads porn when video is available. They just don't scratch the same itch, and you like what you like.

It's done for reactions, like this one.

I doubt it, that guy just loves his mods.
