Yay! More storage!

Me and my friends are wanting to do a full coop playthrough. And these mods popped up aas one of the highest recommended in the steam workshop. But having played Mw5 before and some mods were finnicky. Would using YAML mods not ruin a long run but enhance it? Thanks in advance.

I have been doomscrolling this subreddit for a while, a lot of books that I noticed use covers use AI generated images. I m not trying to call anyone out.

My thinking is if an author has worked hard to put time to write and sell an original work. The cover is often the first thing a potential reader (like me) sees. For less than $100 dollars on fiverr or maybe even less for some hungry artists asking for work in reddit or other social platforms (A friend of mine found budding artists on twitter doing work for P500-P1000 php). Overall, you can commission a decent original piece from an artists, which seems like a small cost relative to the effort already put into writing the book.

I admit that from my perspective, when I see an AI generated cover it gives me the impression that less overall effort went into presenting the book, even if the writing itself is strong. Makes it seem that the author didn't give it their best to present their work.

So pretty much recognise this might not reflect what actually happened behind the scenes (some do, some dont), which is exactly why I want to hear other viewpoints.

I am not assuming everyone can afford a bigger budget for cover art. Plus, Iknow pricing and availability of illustrators can vary a lot. I want to understand the how/why it came to that point.

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Thanks for all the perspectives guys. Most of you guys are pretty chill people with reasons explained and I understood. A small subsection of people are more unreasonable, can't do anything about that.

Edit2: Hopefully I answered everyone now. Wow, that was a lot of fruitful discussions. But I also want to add a perspective.

Author A writes the whole book by hand then uses AI just for the cover. Author B does the reverse, hand crafts the cover then leans on AI for most of teh actual book inside.

Not sayin either ones fine, just that critisism lands on the most visible part, not where the real work went. So mabye the real question is what part of your book your actually willing to put your name behind.

If you can support real art, if you cannot. Go with AI images, but do not confuse the two.

Thanks

Usually been using regular plastic water/gatorade bottles for my use. But want something more sturdy and without the material aftertaste.

Don't have MBlade, HuoHuo.

Will potentially e6s1 them both in the far future, don't have funds rtn. Gimme like a year or so lol.

I prefer something human-made powered by lust or love rather than this garbage.

Thanks

Do I switch to ER rope and eagle set?

Love both characters btw, I am sure you guys too. So respect them and support them. That's my opinion at least.

Still rolling tho.

I wanma prefarm, thanks for the replies chads

Thanks

I know together they will be OP on release, and for the rest of the 4.X patch. But being tightly locked into a support for 1 character. Doesn't bode well for flexibility/adaptability in future.

Still gonna e6 regardless.
