Real cause I see so much of this and it’s so unnecessary. As long as it’s not hurting anyone then why should people care?

Who is this directed at?

caspi.bsky.social•88 days ago

Anyone out here putting down other artists and gamers for making art and playing games, I think I made that rather clear.

As for who inspired it? Someone I blocked this morning who was doing exactly that.

jupiter.blue•88 days ago

Yeah fuck them. :)

I was just concerned I might've I missed some important context.

caspi.bsky.social•88 days ago

I'm trying not to name names or make posts searchable, as the last thing I want is anyone going out and mass harassing a creator over my own words. That's why I didn't quote dunk them, simply blocked and posted my general feelings.

It's TTRPG community infighting, or as we call it, "A -y Day" 😅

In a space about collaborative storytelling, expression, creativity and role play, some folks really bring a "thinking I'm better than you over content consumption preferences" vibe to the party that should have been deemed wholly unacceptable years ago

Anyway good morning another shithead blocked

I couldn't agree more with you. Veilguard got so much hate and people weren't even playing the game and decided for themselves. They'd decided because it was inclusive it was automatically crap. Loathe those kind of people.

caspi.bsky.social•88 days ago

I don't know much re: Veilguard in specific, but I've been a fan of the ol' "If people aren't hurting anyone, why interrupt what they're doing?" ideology long enough to understand.

Oh no! We made something for everyone! What a horror, what a travesty! Oh it's not for you? Then don't. Buy. It.

fairyforest87.bsky.social•88 days ago

Fully agree with you, God forbid something's inclusive. It was people like Smash JT and Doctor Disaster who kept slamming the game. They also went insane when Henry was given an optional romance in Hans in KCD2. Homosexuals didn't exist then apparently. We did and we still do.

caspi.bsky.social•88 days ago

Okay okay hold on there is ONE exception, obviously

To be fair using that stuff doesn't count as "being creative"

caspi.bsky.social•88 days ago

Yeah exactly it SHOULD go without saying but I don't want to tacitly endorse NOT shaming AI bros yknow?

If you've ever made ANYTHING you're better than them.

Art is about sharing our views. Our experiences. To cut others down is the antithesis.

caspi.bsky.social•88 days ago

Can't endorse this enough.

caspi.bsky.social•88 days ago

by the way @jakereusser.bsky.social I just peeped your profile, i love your gnomes :) Keep it up!

jakereusser.bsky.social•88 days ago

I also needed this—especially when things go wrong, a shot in the arm like your complement was just perfect

caspi.bsky.social•88 days ago

I get to use my favourite GIF!! No crab buckets around here, artists gotta lift each other up, and if WE ALL LIFT TOGETHER the sky's the limit :D

jakereusser.bsky.social•88 days ago

Thank you :) just got the new kiln shelf, so I’m firing her tomorrow!

caspi.bsky.social•88 days ago

Excited to follow along!
