I saw this over on the Royal Road forums and thought it sounded fun. Your main character is walking through town when they happen to see their wanted poster hanging on the wall. What does it say? Here's mine: Miranda Jackdaw Wanted for the Theft of 569 Enchanted Weapons 840 Pieces of Enchanted...

No, I got the LCD model. What screen it has shouldn't really matter to me since I intend to pretty much only play it docked to my TV. That's why I originally wanted to wait for the Steam Machine. I played Valheim for a couple hours. The Deck paired with my old Xbox One controller just fine, and...

I AM THE FULLY AND VERIFIABLY ELIGIBLE OFFSPRING OF THE NOBLE LORD AND LADY VANBADGER, AND I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS SLANDER!

I was reading over my notes for XNPC earlier, and it struck me just how many monster girls I have planned for this story. There's Miranda, the FMC who's a Faun. There's Zara, who's a... actually, that would take some explaining, so let's just call her an elf. In future books, I have plans to...

The Steam Deck came in the mail today...right after I finished a twelve hour night shift and being awake for nearly twenty four hours. I checked, and it looks like it works fine, but I'm not going to try playing anything on it until I get some sleep.

Dark Souls 2 feels different from Dark Souls 1 and 3 in a way I can't really put into words. It doesn't feel bad. Play it for an hour or two, and it'll feel completely natural. But if you go straight from playing 1 or 3 to 2, you'll definitely notice that it feels different, and that leads to a...

All right, serious time: I'll grant you that he never explicitly said that people with AI covers should be banned. To be honest, I've seen this braindead argument happen soooo many freaking times, and "mods, please ban" is almost always where they end up going if they're left unchallenged. I...

A couple weeks ago he made a thread about how everyone who uses AI covers on their (free) books is evil and wants artists to die, and they need to be banned from the site.

It makes me feel exactly as good as being a pretentious narcissist makes him feel. No more, no less.

Nobody tell him that I am, at this very moment, commissioning an artist to draw my next book's cover, all right? He doesn't think it's possible to support real artists and still think people like him are insufferable entitled narcissists for demanding that other people spend money on...

I don't know why I'm even bothering. Nobody is better at making OtherSlater look like an insufferable narcissist than OtherSlater. I mean, I'm still going to try, but I'm man enough to admit that you've absolutely got me beaten in that category.

I literally could not care less

It's more about the entitlement on display than anything. And he's still a hypocrite, no matter how you try to spin it. OtherSlater: "Entertaining me for free isn't good enough! You must only use the sources I deem acceptable, even if those sources cost hundreds or thousands of dollars! And if...

The fact that this is a writing website and not an art website is totally lost on both of you, I guess. Regardless, he's still a hypocrite for trying to start a witch hunt and then demanding that the witch hunts stop as soon as people started coming after him.

You're a hypocrite if the witch hunt only becomes a bad thing when the torches and pitchforks are being pointed at you. Which is exactly what's happening here. OtherSlater was more than happy to sic the anti-AI mob on people who didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on a cover for a book they...

Stop trying to play both sides. A couple weeks ago you were the one trying to stir up a witch hunt to eliminate AI generated covers. Now that the accusations have worked their way around to being directed at you, suddenly AI witch hunting is bad. You're the worst kind of hypocrite: one with a...
