I tried to use NovelAI to generate some scenery for my upcoming tabletop rpg campaign and uh…
Well it didn’t go very well.
As expected I need an AI that was trained on stuff that isn’t biased towards anime art hahaha.
I’ll have to look around for any good ones but right now none come to mind.
Which is a shame, because NovelAI is one I have convenient access too.
Although on top of that the artwork I need is rather niche, since it’s a Star Trek setting.
It is 8am and the sun has risen, I got way to distracted reading.
But here are your chapters.
Also I apologise for missing yesterday’s posting of Automata Maid.
I explained it in those posts so go ahead and read them for the reasoning.
Good day!
Recently I’ve been working with a friend to compile character data for the Opportunity Rover as a Fate servant.
Interestingly as I was doing it the Shelter song rotated on youtube as a result of me watching that Neuro clip a few days ago.
It’s a strangely fitting song for Opportunity as a last message to Humanity when you think about it.
Especially if you consider it as a song not just about humanity watching over them, but also as encouragement to the successor rovers that will be sent after.
I have no excuse as to why these chapters are late.
I just… forgot to hit the schedule button.
So yeah, enjoy these chapters which will be a few hours late in your time.
Know, that I sacrificed my Blue Archive daily’s to get these posted.
I realised I was 9 minutes late for the login before reset by the time I got these done.
Don’t ever say I don’t do things for you!
As the inevitable arrow of time moves forward we must once again look forward the valentine events in our gacha games.
May you all be blessed with many waifus and good rng.
I know I should make this ramble about valentines or something but I just want to marvel about how this chapter is called Deep Hole.
Anyway!
I am really tired today because I went out to watch a a meteor!
It was a bit too cloudy to see properly, and I was kind of looking in the wrong direction because I didn’t have a compass and forgot to make a note of the angle of entry.
I remembered where it would go to but not where it would come from, so I had to spin round when I noticed.
Incidentally I thought it was 90 degrees but it was half that.
The current leading candidate for the name of our Federation Starship in the upcoming tabletop RPG campaign is:
The USS Tenara.
Tenara is the name of a cold and mountainous region of the planet Trill, mentioned in Deep Space 9.
We figured it’s a good name for a Norway Class, you know, a cold, mountainous region of the planet Earth.
Other ships I have created to appear are
USS Chevalier, USS Copley, USS Galena, USS Melincourt and USS Edelweiss.
Those are a patrol ship, ecological research ship, resource survey ship, cargo transport ship and an experimental ship respectively.
I’m also considering the USS Rossum as a computer development ship.
I made some more headway on my Star Trek RPG plans.
I now know where the campaign will be based around, Starbase 152.
Of course the players ship will rarely be there, but having it as an anchor makes things much more homely in its own way.
I have a few ideas to add some quirks to it and such.
Blue Archive are doing their 100 free gacha tickets event currently.
I haven’t got anything good so far, but still have 80 rolls to go.
I got some meta units on the previous gacha fest before this one though so I think it will balance out.
The level process is going slow though.
I kind of miss the early days, where it was easy to get energy to spend on levelling.
But that’s what I get for quitting for a year.
Apparently I chose the best time in the world to return to Blue Archive (well aside form never leaving of course) as they’re giving away 100 free gacha pulls after the next update.
Man that’s crazy, can you imagine if FGO or something did that?
I mean FGO’s idea for an anniversary event is to make you pay for a character haha.
What a difference in philosophy.
Though what I find interesting is the new story chapter in the asian server is called Final Chapter, but as far as I know they still have more planned unreleased chapters so it’s not very Final is it?
At first I thought “Isn’t two years a bit fast to finish off a gacha games main story?” but then I remember FGO’s first run was two years too, then they did that year semi-sequel before entering the current arc.
It’s getting close to forgetting which translators are good in what fields now.
It’s just slipping from my brain.
I lost my cheat sheet somewhere and it’s annoying.
I used to be able to just write down the strengths and weaknesses of each translator and then go through and quickly check based on that.
But now it’s lost and there’s new translators I have to go through slowly again once more I guess.
I need to quickly rebuild my cheat sheet.
I started playing Blue Archive again a few days ago because a couple of my friends are again, and everyone is talking about the new PV.
I remembered why I stopped playing in the first place today.
Progress just feels, really slow.
I know the game is more like a waifu collector shooter with a game system built around it.
But it just feels really slow to make any progress.
You gain player exp at a fixed rate essentially, for spending stamina.
Which means your progress is locked to your stamina regen.
Unless I am missing something, it will take me days to level up, and I need multiple levels to be able to continue the story.
It’s just so slow.
Sorry everyone, I’m in a massive rush today.
The editing might be a little more patchy than usual as a result.
I really really skimmed through, so it probably barely counts as even proofreading honestly.
Let me know any errors in the comments and I’ll fix them when I get time.
