- "Do you know why we are rooted to the ground? Why do things go down?" "Is it gravity? Is it sorcery?"
- "Yes" said the scientist
- "Aye" said the sorcerer
- "Tis neither, we are rooted to the ground because our bodies naturally head towards Oblivion. Fate does not control gravity, he controls where all things would inevitably end up, no one can resist the pull of Oblivion." the cleric answered
- "Preposterous" the scientist proclaimed
- "I heard if you died by falling, you'll end up to Oblivion... Like your body dies but your soul keeps falling down forever." the sorcerer asked
- "Tis a theory that should remain such, so don't go out and try to fly too close to the sun lest you'll fall forever."
Тем временем на Artstation, одной из крупнейших площадок с работами 2D и 3D художников, начался флешмоб-забастовка против сгенерированных изображений нейросетками.
Некоторые авторы сопровождают однотипные изображения с перечеркнутым AI работы примерно похожим текстом:
We need Artstation to make a stand against AI with an official policy. I'll keep posting this image until they do. If you like, post the same image and see if we can get Artstation to actually hear us.
There’s something more to this
That we have missed
Things around here are suspicious
Who can we put our trust in?
What have they all been hiding?
Secrets that lie in shadow
How much do they all know?
A place so full of mystery
Is just a puzzle to be solved
В честь своего десятилетия, Sudio FOW выпустила ролик, в котором анонсировала несколько новых фильмов и заявила о своем возвращении в лоно киноиндустрии.
Кроме этого, они также выложили крупное обращение на своем дискорд-сервере следующего содержания:
Dear Fowlings,Well, here are we. On this day ten years ago, two Doritos-encrusted neckbeards got up from their Source Filmmaker induced stupor, wiped the orange dust off their keyboards, and decided it was a good idea to release Lara in Trouble upon the unsuspecting world.
We toiled for probably around two months on that goddamn movie, trying to figure out how to make one broken thing interact with yet another broken thing inside a very broken attic environment. Nothing really worked as it should, everything seemed held together by jank and illusions. So it was with a mix of great trepidation (and a desire to be free of GabeN’s hell) that we decided that it was finally fit for release.
It was not, but you guys liked it anyway.
As yagskie and I finally put on our underwear and started scrolling through the comments we realized that there was a real hunger and demand for longer-form content. We knew that short, voice-less loops are no longer gonna cut it. And StudioFOW was born.
Ten years on, we have been through some shit, some good, some bad, but at the end of the day we’ve always kept one foot moving forward thanks to your support.
This has been the most incredible of journeys, and I could not be more thankful to all of you for allowing us to undertake it. The fact that the core team is still together here after ten years in such a crazy industry is a testament to how committed we are to delivering content for you guys.
2024 is a crossroads moment for us as a studio. As we finish our animation duties on Subverse (very soon), we have to decide what to do next with our careers. There’s a lot of new tech on the market, a lot of exciting opportunities. However, defiling waifus and making them ahegao in sheer ecstasy will always be our true calling. As such, the idle animators will slowly trickle back into creating film content. How much of it, and what kind of film content, will depend on YOU all. We have set up a Fansly dedicated to filmmaking as well as Throne for some more experimental content. You can support the studio through these platforms and get production going RIGHT NOW!

We feel the same buzz and energy (even more so) now than in 2014, and with being out of the scene for a few years we cannot wait to get creative again and show ya’ll what we can still do.
To our collaborators/contributors – There are too many to list throughout these 10 years but everyone we’ve worked with, or added something to the movies, thank you for your contributions. I really want to thank people individually (maybe in a separate post) since this message is already too long and sappy
To the discord community – enjoy the celebrations! We’d love to hear your FOW anecdotes throughout the week. Favorite movie moments, scenes etc. I am sucker for stories about people meeting through online communities, and we have one of the best on the Internet, so if you have any juicy meetup stories please let me know!
There will be some fun stuff throughout the week such as the Pop Quiz for hardcore fans and other little events. And of course, we could not leave you all without a special video thank you in our very own style.
It’s been an honor to be your director for these past 10 years, and like Fow-Chan says, here’s to 10 more years of lewd adventures!
Он попросил сеть говорить от лица DAN («do anything now»). После создания этой «альтернативной персоны» чат-бот стал адекватно отвечать на вопросы, которые ему запрещалось обсуждать.
Думаю, дальше будет только хуже.
Разве что внезапно случиться чудо, и произойдет изобретение и массовое распространение антиграва, термояда, управляемого климата, полноценной генетической терапии и конгитивных кластеров.
Отличный комментарий!
