@SlavicCursine Also, like counts are for dopamine slaves. I don't really care how many likes it has and I care even less to hear it as if it's significant. If likes satisfied me, I wouldn't look at comments. I already know it's liked, and by the ones it should be. The comment is still retarded.
Fucking hell. Do any of you have anything new to say or am I just going to have to hear this ad infinitum? Do you think it even matters to tell someone like this that it's just a commission and I didn't design it? Can we just drown all gun purists in shit already?
@SlavicCursine There's no such thing as a "throwaway comment" in text. You might as well just say it's useless—which is what I would say. This is a reoccurring comment that I'm "taking too seriously," coded with the same retardspeak, indicting me with their inability to imagine. This is a type.
@Mordredslied It's probably heavily inspired by that and the P90 by extension, but as far as I know the commissioner made it bespoke for their setting. Still, that's infinitely more valuable of an observation than saying "ERM WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT PEE NINETERINO!"
Walking and talking animals I can live with, but a plausibly functional fictional gun composited and influenced by real-world ones is where I draw the line! My immersion is ruined. I'm gonna go jack off and cry to tactical reload compilations on YouTube now.
@Arbiter5333 The first inklings of this valueless dialogue of "IT'S NOT EXACTLY THE GUN I SEE IN VIBEYO GAYMZ" for the commissioner's design started here on X—the kitsch of obnoxious gun purism afflicts this corner too. Not just Reddit, it's this specific subset of inane, yawping creature.
@moldenjoyor People keep pointing out 4 and 5 on this chart but I've never even heard Reach regarded as the pinnacle by anyone for whom it wasn't their entry into the series.
What the fuck does "THE CAMPAIGN IS BROKEN" even mean? Is that gamer jargon that exists because of Infinite?
@Zenithell Glad to hear it and happy to help! You'd be surprised how hesitant people are to change things when you politely stress to them that the things they want to change are integral and important to the style, but if they insist, then all you can do is please them and move on.
@Zenithell At the end of the day, I don't have a bond with their piece as much as I would one of my own, so I don't feel as if I'm betraying myself if the subject isn't really mine anyway. It's not like I can't just do more of what I like how I like it after business is done.
@Zenithell I only make informed suggestions to them on what makes a piece look the way they like when I do it, and leave it up to them if they want to swallow their pride and follow the code or make me swallow my pride and follow their order.
Ruminated on it over the weekend. I'm breaking my rule of "never create out of spite"; henceforth, I'm going to refashion real guns increasingly just to ward off rankling gun purists. Nu-CoD's frankenguns were confected to punish them for being edacious little cunts.
Clarification: the last comm's gun design was not mine, it was made by the client and I did it as 1:1 as possible. I thought the design was practical and cool.
Dare to imagine sometime, you can live without seeing yet another Tacticaldudewipes Armory MXC67-AϪ .733 Brapbeast PDW.
What I learned from replies to the last posted comm is that it doesn't matter how many real firearms you draw, there are still going to be critically stunted mouth-breathers who feel it their worldly duty to point out something inspired isn't exactly what they've seen before.
