Fuck I really need some sleep but it's gonna be a long day at the ball crushing factory.

Well I guess I'm just gonna keep working on the game until I pass out and then sleep until work :P

Huh. Was wondering when my sleep schedule would go back to being super degenerate. All it took was working on game stuff and not paying attention to the clock.

@LukeAlmighty this is also an issue with modern graphics in general, isn't it? With older games, with less realistic graphics, you could make a pretty woman and it would never look bad because the lighting, skin textures, models, animations, etc. weren't so realistic. Everything was either highly stylized or was feigning realism in a stylized way, whereas now graphics are extremely high fidelity and that comes with all the negatives of real life circumstances.

Perhaps the issue falls more on whoever is directing scenes, where they're not getting the lighting or angles quite right, instead of the model and texture artists. At this point, with such high fidelity, they should be treating it like they are directing actual actors on an actual set and trying to make the shot always flattering and appealing to look at (unless they are trying to make it look bad for the purpose of the scene of course). Even a lot of the "found footage" kinds of movies will pay close attention to those sorts of things.

@griffith that's why I'm not fabulously wealthy and might not ever be

people are saying they changed ciri's face in this "behind the scenes" video of the cinematic trailer. idk to me it looks exactly the same but with different lighting conditions and angles. what do you guys think?

tbh i don't have a problem with how she looked at all to begin with but maybe i'm in the minority there. if there were ever the case for a more rugged looking woman in a video game it would probably be a witcher, or whatever the fuck ciri is.

if you're using windows 11 and hate the rounded corners on windows, use this: github.com/oberrich/win11-togg

i had to use the installer version instead of the portable version but it did work and i'm really happy about that. honestly, normally i'd be okay with rounded windows, but the problem is that if you're playing a game in windowed mode it cuts off a little bit at the bottom and that messes with screenshots and stuff. it'd be better if just the title bars were rounded.

gonna go to the library on friday to get scans of all the grid paper maps
