I am playing through The New War in Warframe right now and I’m going to be honest it takes every fiber of my being to not be tweeting like this but for Warframe
@Destoroyah_WoW Basically, it’s a “to camera” cheat and it’s used all the time in 3D animation. A lot of the times a movement isn’t technically possible even though it “looks” right, like here. Other times it’s for stylized effects, this example from Luca being my favorite
So wowhead has pretty much officially died. Everyone who made the website what it is are gone.
Back to just being a database, I might find my news elsewhere. Sad to see it go the way it has.
@NotAmberBerries I’ve luckily been blessed by the algo recently, but it’s def in part due to a specific effort to “adapt” machinima for the current era
Machinimas are typically skits, and oddly enough skits are the bread-and-butter of shorts
@NotAmberBerries There's probably just as WoW parodies being made (though they are probably VERY AI lol), same as goofy machinimas. But everything is super algorithm driven and those kinds of 'content' just don't drive traffic like more typical stuff
