Of course.

Israel now has an official ice cream flavor. 🍦🇮🇱

Milk & Honey is made with milk from Kibbutz Alumim, honey from Kibbutz Yad Mordechai and was created to support communities in southern Israel.

The Land of Milk and Honey just got a little more literal.

What flavor should be next?

These people are so buckbroken by Gacha tribalists, they'd defend the shittiest decisions by these companies built around maximizing profits and will gladly eat shit served on a plate if it ever comes to it. End result? A worse game and anti-consumer friendly practices normalized

Nobody wakes up one day and decides lower standards are acceptable.

They just spend years defending every small step in that direction until criticism itself becomes taboo.

By the time people realize what happened, the new normal is already locked in.

WuWa Endgame rn

ToA: hp inflated Cancerous enemies with Hyper specific Shilled buffs and restriction with Hp inflation even in side towers

WiWa : waves of enemies who move to much around arena with hyper specific shilling and Hp inflation and burning waves which does nothing

Fanservice: ❌ cringe, pandering, degrading
Fanservice 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈's like: ✅ diva, cunty, queer-coded, serving

Maybe the issue was never fanservice. Maybe it was who was enjoying it.

Maybe it's because I'm gay, but despite this being fanservicy, her confidence and demeanor exudes intense cunty aura
Diva

@DoctorRedoric @TodesxEngelchen @KMakwabara91070 @karekanten The accepting people love to do exactly the stuff they claim to hate to make everyone seem like one of their own, don't you understand that? 😂
Look at Kirara from JJK, never used she/her or was identified with any feminine pronouns, they LOVE to misgender him tho

Clearly worked out great. They should make the whole cast homosexual for future releases.

@huatsweitgerr @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized Also this is pretty poor evidence for "they don't use it"
because:
- Scene 1 is minimal touch-ups
- Scene 2 is a core cutscene where expressions will be pretty varied and they'd be unlikely to see success there

It works great for standard dialogue and all companies use it there

@huatsweitgerr @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized Also, honest piece of advice again, I wouldn't say it's very smart forget any Gacha's players to claim their companies don't/won't use AI. We both know investors love the AI slop money and if the bubble never pops, they'll only flex and show more of it as time goes by.

@huatsweitgerr @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized I mean again, they've quite literally mentioned facial animation there and Superman's only means of offering this for CG and main dialogue instead of NPCs is AI Driven using Audio2EmoFace, it's just right there man 😭

@huatsweitgerr @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized No goalposts actually moved, you're given a very common sense answer and it only aligns with what I've said

[safety net @schizokeeper]

@huatsweitgerr @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized You didn't provide any evidence of them actually animating facial expressions, it's just minor adjustments here lol

[safety net @schizokeeper]

@huatsweitgerr @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized - not whether the company used AI in 1 place or 20, as long as a good and enjoyable game is delivered to players at the end of the day. Lacrimosa was likeable and she had great sales, nobody cared.
With that being said, I'll take my leave with this thread, you're going in circles

[safety net @schizokeeper]

@huatsweitgerr @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized - literally doesn't matter.
You wanna believe KG doesn't use AI despite them directly saying they use it for facial animations? Feel free. Nothing changes at the end of the day.
If NTE does good updates, they'll make more money. Same goes for WuWa or any other gacha -

@huatsweitgerr @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized Also, what you've sent doesn't even contradict what is said lol. This is falling under the "minimal fine tuning" mentioned
They don't show the animation or creation of expression parts at all, just manual slimming.

@schizokeeper @Song594467 @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized Ofcourse man this cutscene animation even expression is AI generated sure sure

@huatsweitgerr @Sandzz42 @TriL3Xsb @AmanogawaT2025 @LordSangar67 @RealWoosh_214 @Euphoralized You're the one that left the core debate, but the point was any dialogue barring cutscenes is lip synced to all languages and they always use this very tech to do so
They don't do it for cutscenes because it would fucking burn storage

(4) continuation because why not

To add some more referenece, 2.7 MSQ had a number of "pre-rendered" scenes, likely to test some sort of timed dialogue sequence or something else (easy tell is there's no autoplay toggle, no dialogue readback, no UI toggle)
