Hoje dou por encerrada a minha jornada de quase 8 anos na Braver, Goatpixel e Magia Discreta. Tive o prazer de trabalhar e colaborar com pessoas inspiradoras e em projetos de sonho que infelizmente nem sempre tiveram o rumo que lhes queria dar.
@Ah0nwe@Celebrityhaze Nah, there's no forcing something on English speaking people in a concert or world wide event. People attend or watch only if they want to.
Maybe what was forced was English to a ton of colonised countries.
AI-generated elements are indeed present in the "Stellar Blade Blood Rain" trailer.
Some of the "Chinese writing" is very visibly AI slop.
I didn't want to point it out earlier because I presume these are placeholders to be replaced throughout development (and mostly because I'm not comfortable enough with Chinese writing to authoritatively point the finger).
Still, not a good look to have these in your reveal trailer. It's... sloppy.

And with this, Rocket League officially becomes the most skill-based esport in the world.
The very last element of randomness is gone. Every other title has at least a factor of randomness, RL now has literally none. This is awesome.
This is a clear Indication that;
-Michael Carrick has nothing to offer this club.
- Wins are based on individual brilliances.
xG For (Red line): Shows how many quality scoring chances United created per game on average under Ruben Amorim. It started strong (around 1.7-1.8 early on), peaked dramatically around games 15-20 (over 2.5), then declined noticeably after Michael Carrick was employed .
• xG Against (Black line): Measures the quality of chances conceded. It was volatile but relatively contained early Under Ruben Amorim (often 1.0-1.7), dipped nicely in the mid-season, but has risen sharply toward the end Under Michael Carrick, hitting 1.64 recently.
The vertical line marks the switch from Ruben Amorim to Michael Carrick (around game week 20-21). This is the inflection point: United were generally creating more and conceding less (or at least stabilizing) under Amorim in this rolling view, with a post-transition decline in creation and a recent defensive regression under Michael Carrick.
Amorim’s tenure had strong underlying numbers (often leading the league in xG creation at points), but results were mixed, after his departure (after Carrick was employed).
Under Michael Carrick, results improved in terms of points, but the underlying data (as shown here and in other analysis) has been more mixed or worse in xG terms compared to Amorim’s later games — more reliance on finishing or defensive solidity rather than dominant chance creation. This only means it might get more worse on the long run.
Also, Under Michael Carrick, the xG against rose heavily compared to that of Amorim’s era and that indicates that the opponents often found the net or dominated chance creation more.
xG is a better predictor of future performance than raw goals, so this means that overall, it’s a classic “process (Amorim) vs. results (Carrick)” story for United this year.
Ruben Amorim’s tenure was obviously better in the sense that the future holds consistency and dominance in matches but with Michael Carrick, it’s been a decline in every analyzable data and metric and that is not looking great.
Every data will keep pointing to how the games under Ruben Amorim were improving game after the game but that may not be seen by every Manchester United fan, the Carrick supporters act ignorant to these statistics and facts because they prefer results to process. They’d rather skip the process and get the short term results which would definitely come hunting back when the times comes.
➡️ Ruben Amorim’s Hightest xG for was 2.5, his lowest xG against 0.9-1.0
➡️ Michael Carrick’s Highest xG for is 1.75, his lowest xG against is 1.64 😳 (almost up to his highest xG for which is very bad)
These are facts that you may or may not find useful but that would not mean the facts are not there, you can choose what to do with them.
The Newcastle game should have been the moment people realised Ruben Amorim might actually know what he was doing.
He used 5 different systems in one game to beat Newcastle after Manchester United had previously won just once in their last 8 Premier League meetings against them.
And he did it without:
Bruno Fernandes
Bryan Mbeumo
Amad Diallo
Harry Maguire
Kobbie Mainoo
Noussair Mazraoui
Matthijs de Ligt
That should have convinced people he was building something.
But instead, many had already decided on their agenda against him.
Gundam, the iconic franchise that launched a global phenomenon, is now in production as a live-action film — starring Sydney Sweeney and Noah Centineo — about rival mech pilots at war across Earth and its space colonies.
While I was surfing through the streaming services, I ended up watching the first episode of an anime that caught my eye. I’d only ever seen the title before in the manga section at bookstores.
“Nippon Sangoku.” What an incredible anime. I’m honestly blown away…so intense and powerful. I’m definitely continuing this… or maybe I should just read the manga instead 🗾
