Just a warning for everyone, since Video Game Slopterica keeps being the most irresponsible YouTube Channel to exist these days. The Banjo-Tooie Recompilation is NOT associated with us. It is entirely AI-generated. Both Zelda: Recompiled and Banjo: Recompiled have very clear No AI stances.

THE CLANS HEIR IS A TRANS WOMAN (2013) is like Steven Seagal decided to Write/Direct/Star in a love letter to his trans friends, but it looks and feels like every action movie he's made... except Hitoshi Ozawa is way way way way cooler than Seagal.

Genuinely, this completely rules

－Recently, the game has been going viral on X for its beautiful undressing animations. I’ve even read in one of your previous interviews that the development team practiced stripping themselves as reference for the undressing animations. What was the process behind making the animations actually like?

Matsui:

I’d love to know how far that story has spread. It’s true.

First, we write a plot for each undressing scene, then draw storyboards, exactly as the original team did. Then the real work begins, because the animation is essentially all keyed by hand. A designer moves the clothing’s 3D model, frame by frame, manually. It really is pretty much like the claymation method I mentioned.

We did try automating it with physics simulation first, but it was a total failure. The cloth moved in a physically correct way, but had absolutely no allure. We learned a profound lesson: accuracy and sensuality are two unrelated properties. In the end, we accepted that humans would have to do all of it.

Then VR adds its own weight. In a normal game, if something becomes awkward, you can cut away or swap models between scenes. In VR, the player can look from any angle at any time, so none of those tricks are available. The same model has to undress convincingly no matter where you’re standing. When I described this to a designer at another studio, he said, “I would never do that.” I’ve chosen to take it as a compliment.

And then, yes, the part you’ve read about. The undressing motions themselves use motion capture, but the deeper problem was that nobody actually knew the correct rhythm and order in which a person takes off clothes. So, the directors gathered and undressed themselves as reference. “That zipper is coming down too fast.” “She’d pause once before slipping her shoulder out.” These were serious, sober discussions. For compliance reasons, the Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns team works in a walled-off section of our office – and that was the moment those walls truly earned their keep.

Whatever you do though, don't use AI to get yourself to that endpoint faster. You're just cheating yourself out. Would you learn how to draw by getting an AI to generate an image for you? Would you learn how to make music by asking AI to make a song? No, so why let it do that for your new hobby?

Life is all about learning things when you have the motivation on how to do something. If you want to make something, learn how to make it. It's a rewarding and fun experience trying to learn a new hobby. Everyone who you think is great at what they do didn't get there in 1 day.

this response is so funny "we have to use ai because our developers are spread so thin it'd be impossible to do it all by hand" okay hear me out maybe instead just don't make 9 pc ports at once??? you could just make one so you're not spread so thin

“One of the reasons I think we are accepting of AI contributions is that our developers are spread thin,” said Jeod in the group’s Discord server. “When Ship of Harkinian began, it was apparently a dream; now, with so many ports and a decade later, devs have come and gone; some don’t have interest in specific games, others have real life to deal with. We always welcome talent, and if you’re willing to learn how things work here, then the door is open.”

There's a reason why "ragebait" is a very common type of content right now. It works. You engage with it despite knowing that it's going to make you upset. I love social media to network and promote my causes, but you HAVE to log off.
