So, in closing... the real question isn't which Doctor Who has fucked their respective incarnation of The Master/Missy, the question is which Doctor is the bottom in each incarnation.

Thank you for coming to my lecture.
Bottom
Bottom.
Switch.
Either so long as it is weird.

Always top. In very specific situations only.
Bratty bottom.
Top. With weaponry.

Pretends to be top but isn't

Mostly watches.

Slappy top.
Sex? How very dare you!

Just happy to be included
Fnor. Yes please.
Heh, all those who followed me for 3d tutorials are starting to sense what they got themselves into right now.
Top.
Bottom. Remember his master was Eric Roberts.
Top. See?
Top. And one must politely thank him after or there will be stern looks over your plate of Dalek nutrition pills.
Bottom.
Top.
Yeah, yeah, in ten minutes and you will go get her a hot water bottle because her toesies are chilly.
Thanks for listening to this most important thread.

May the force be forever in your favour, and prosper.

A video game that simulates #ADHD. The mission objective changes at random every few minutes and whenever you walk into a new room, your inventory shuffles one item and sometimes it becomes invisible for a few minutes.

You auto steer into table corners.
Whenever you get more than one sidequest there is a chance you go into overwhelm and your controller will pretend it is unplugged.

The corners of the level starts filling up with laundry.

You put down an item and it vanishes when you look away.
You have timed missions but during loading screens that can dramatically shorten by an hour or five.

A 3d character walks into a bar.

The bartender doesn't say anything.

You realise you haven't put collision or a trigger volume on the bar asset.
A 3d character walks into a bar.

The bar jitters and flies off into the distance.

You need to turn off "use phsyics" on the bar asset.
A 3d character walks into a bar.

The bartender says "why the long face".

You sigh and open your 3d modelling ap. Long thin triangles are bad for quad draw performance.

In Life Is Strange Before The Storm, one truth Rachel Amber tells Chloe during "two truths and a lie" that she is a Leo.
The brilliant thing is later if you pay attention, her birthday is the day after Leo ends. But her starchart has her on a cusp.

This is brilliant.
The series has a few moments of absolutely brilliant subtle clues in it that add layers of meaning, but you have to be sharp to spot them.
But if you miss those, there are still blatant clues around the place that give some level of depth.
The main mysteries of the game aren't hard at all, probably to a fault, but on replay there are far more little ones.

A technique I highly recommend to #gamedev artists is to look at actual shipped game assets.

There are various ways to get hold of them, such as programs like Ninja Ripper, Utiny ripper or via archives.

And I must stress this is for learning purposes ONLY. NEVER use them.
Being able to look at models from a wide range of titles, see how they are rigged, how their Uvs are layed out, the triangle count and modularity... it all helps you understand the ACTUAL end result you are aiming for.
I think it is really important that students bridge the gap between where they are at, and what the end products are at.

You may think "oh, the models in X game are super high end, high tech stuff" but when you actually crack it open and examine it in your DCC...

There is no ethical use of AI art.

There is no future for humanity in a world where all human endeavour is stolen and boiled down to something that replaces humans.

What do humans do in a world where humans are not employed to create?

Is that a world you want to live in?
If you take away the creative process of human artists into pool, the zeitgeist becomes entirely manufactured from an ever decreasing pool of looping cannibalism.

Pop literally eating itself.
Endless product without exploration. Product feeding on product.

No art movements, no re-evaluations of our place and relationship to the world.

Homogenisation and starvation.

Draw calls are responsible for a good 50 percent of the chugging issues I have helped games with.

A draw call is "okay now draw me an apple, and come back when you are done for the next instruction."
Then you ask for another apple. Then when they return you ask for another...
So the GPU is running back and forth to the CPU when it could just do that once and "draw me a pile of apples".
Rendering an apple, in this example, takes a tiny amount of what a core on the GPU can render. So by welding all the apples into one bigger mesh, it can be done faster in one draw call than all the fucking around to draw them one by one.
