I find it a bit cute knowing they start out as crazy and then slowly settle into something calmer and relatively healthier after learning to adapt to each other's lust-turned-love. [Stanley did it first but hey :3]

this is coming from an extreme ai hater who wishes that it was never invented but sometimes the way that people complain about gen ai is just very reductive . it’s giving very much “no one wants to work these days” . like i just truly believe that no one is ever lazy and i think if we’re going to complain about ai being used to complete school assignments we need to think about why it’s even possible to complete such a large portion of schoolwork and never have to even think . why can a machine do your “learning” for you? it’s bc so many assignments are busywork or don’t challenge students and encourage them to output robotic answers instead of inserting themselves into their work . bc that’s how we’re taught . OR for the few assignments that actually do value originality a lot of students just don’t value humanities and we need to think about why that is . probably bc they’ve been told their entire lives that stem is the only way to make reliable money and people want to live comfortably and happily and it’s just pretentious and detached to act like you don’t understand where this impulse comes from . even if it’s not true that stem is the only pathway to that people have been told their entire lives that it is . gen ai being used to complete assignments is indicative of a much larger failing of schooling and society at large and i’m tired of seeing it be used to recreate narratives of younger generations being lazy and not caring when the truth is that a lot of people are reacting in a logical way to the system that they’ve been raised in

[theoryofwhatnow]

okay so obviously this poster comes from -> this image

then this poster comes from -> this image

and then this poster would come from this photoshoot

but not that image specifically. trying to track down this exact image is actually how i found those written interviews/articles with gregory j read (that were purchased by the lovely sweetoneiros and then posted by everyone’s favorite, laurelwen) but i ultimately failed to uncover it.

i think perhaps if i could find the photographer, then i could obviously narrow down the rest, but i genuinely don’t know how to even trace the image that i have back that far. anyway, let me know if any of you catch anything because i would gladly run down that rabbit hole for this image because it haunts me :)

Gunman Joe is most likely a hologram and is probably controlled by one of the inventors to stilt the other's progress (and probably not whoever Eggmuffin is, as it appears on top of their building and would probably dissuade Layton and Luke's efforts to connect to Eggmuffin). The voice is probably a voice changer of sorts. I don't think this is the main antagonist though.

The background art is GORGEOUS. And VERY American. I forgot to mark it down on my bingo sheet. SNAILMOBILE AND OSTRIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

how much are you guys betting that the purple fog is doing some psychological horrors (JOKE)

music bangs as usual RAAAAAAAAAAGH

Ok... I think what was originally making me feel gloomy about the models is solved after seeing the puzzle solved (heh) animation, and I feel a bit more hopeful. The models we see here only have one form of shading as opposed to the NWOS switch teaser or the puzzle solved animation. This game IS early in development so now that makes sense. I mean it looks bad but I think it'll improve. And if not I'll do it myself. Plus the shading in the switch teaser is purple-hued and the shading in-game that we see here is black, which is USUALLY a sign it's still being tweaked around in the background.

The fact that they're STILL aiming for 2025 makes me worried though... The game definitely needs polishing. Realistically delaying it would've been expected at its current stage, but persisting in a 2025 release gives it about a year and a third. Of course Level 5 is known for delaying things all the time so they could just be like "gomen minasama 2026" but... I feel like if they are persisting in a 2025 release... mm... After all of that, the trailer was nice but a bit worrisome. It's obvious now that they're still in development and it's not the final look though! One thing that comes to mind is the crusty Desmond model we saw wayyyy early on in AL's development;

Like. There's still time. I would be especially surprised if the don't at least add a bit of texturing to some of the models (like the texture-baked shaking in luke's hat or desmond's hair). I'm less pessimistic about the 3d model style now especially with its siblings looking as peak as it is (inazuma eleven, decapolice, etc)

That being said, I can't say much about what I'm hoping for until we see the TGS (did you guys forget about TGS /silly), though if it IS coming out in 2025... I hope to god it's like. December or something. I really don't want this to be rushed and with how it looks right now I wouldn't exactly be happy with it. In fact if there is 2d cutscenes I can totally see them saving it up for TGS too just to have something new and exciting rather than the same information we've already seen. Concluding, things are going smoothly, models are still developmental-looking, and I have mixed feelings but it's slowly bouncing back to positive all because of crusty desmond png

Never clearly showing what's the name on the back of Arm's jersey from the engineering's soccer team (which he's NOT player of) feels like a deliberate move to mock me personally

ngl while it's good that people are becoming more wary of new technologies and would rather take their time with integrating it into their daily lives I do fear that the climate of tumblr is turning many people into technophobes
