I kinda want to ask this question to see if you guys understand like the difference: tell me kenyal, distinguish between straight up copying. I'm taking inspiration because I have my own definition, but I want to see if it pairs well.
My distinction of copy versus inspiration, is when you're copying, you simply take the content of what your muse, maybe you rework it or change the name a bit but its fundamentally the same thing it came from. Inspiration. I feel is taking the concept of something and uh, fitting it into your original idea.
A good example of a good copy would be in Jujitsu Kaisen; curse energy is a stripped down version of Nen from HxH and Domain Expansions are Domains from Yuyu Hakusho.
While a good example of inspiration is Attack on Titan with how it takes inspiration from the mecha genre and cinema as a whole.

I think a good way to be a good hack is to be eclectic with what you take. And try to give it a good twist. Inspiration is looking at a concept and figuring out what makes it work and seeing how it benefits your project.

Kiyoko BIG
GIVE
Almost making me simp for kitsune.

Well, I guess you're getting fucked: Ass up, face down until that prolapse relapses.
There wouldn't be so many mods and mod development if it wasn't a peak.
One doesn't attract talent by being mid
Kinky. But it's not peak if the mods are required to make it playable or memorable. There's no interesting content or stories and the land is barren aside from mini dungeons with the same three enemy types. Whenever skyrim is talked about it's usually that one Parthunaax quote, Serana thirst, or mods. Fallout 4 is shit on but has a prominent modding scene too. Granted I'll say Skyrim was the herald of Bethesda slop but not the peak achieved by Fallout 4 before they unleashed the bioweapon that was Starfield.

all the writers who left where the ones carrying shit it seems
If we're talking community writers then yeah. But the main team ones who left weren't really carrying. I don't think anyone will be praising bubble and the only thing hugs did that gets praise as far as I can tell is Berwyn. Jstar and Crab have been putting out good stuff though imo.

Presumably still haven't gone through the obligatory three-hour OC-based DnD sesh to that point of the story yet.
No wonder the story progress takes so long if that's the case. Organizing a DnD session is a nightmare. I know it's been joked about but isn't the game loosely based on a DnD game savin ran or was a part of? Wonder how many of the players were fighting for main character status if so.

Kiyoko BIG
also Kneel before Todd
Oh, wow. That's a pretty good glow up. Kiyoko's evolving bust is interesting in concept but didn't seem to evolve her quite enough.

...I mean, I imagine that's a new Kiyoko bust, you never know with this game.

I mean, I typed that in jest... But he does have a channel with a fuckload of episodes of DnD sessions.

If my joke's accidentally accurate, answer should be right there.

Inspiration is if I write a story about warriors fighting in an underground tournament under the excuse of saving the world from an invasion of beings from another plan of existence.

Copying is if that tournament's heroes are a Chinese monk called Liu Bang, an erstwhile action movie called Donny Rage and a military woman called Tanya Sword. And the opponents are led by Zhao Kahn, hailing from Overthereworld.

It's only copying if Donny Rage is played by Jeanne Claud Van Dam.

That game is as old as a middle schooler, and it is still used as industry standard for immersion. Shut the f*** up
By who? And even if it was the case, that's because the world design is good and the soundtrack is literally god-tier. Everything else is boring as fuck and done infinitely better in other games. Combat is ass, magic system is beat by an older game in the same franchise, most perks are boring, faction stories are dog shit, and dragons, the main draw of the game, are underwhelming as fuck.

TES is the only franchise I've seen remove a fuck ton of mechanics and somehow get more popular because of it.

Now I know your being disingenuous, you just don't wanna say "Yes." Sometimes good things come from surrender.
Tho I will say I was about to use the parthunaax qoute.

I feel like we engaging in some revisionist history here. Because when Skyrim dropped, that shit was a Category 5 Nuclear Bomb. That later had a role in shaping future open world games. It created a standard. It's also 14 yrs old with a heavy modding scene. So of course after all this time, what people will mostly reference/remember would be the mods. That's what it has become known for. But what it is now, don't magically erase what it was beforehand. And Skyrim was most definitely That Game.

It's not the best RPG for sure. More a big world with RPG stuff to do. But let's not get it twisted. Skyrim was absolutely the peak in it's time. Mods have kept it at it's peak and taken center stage because that shit is expansive. So expansive that I burned out trying to mod the damn thing. Before I even got around to playing it on PC.

I still ain't went back either..... so many mods just for the water alone!

Cheers to remembering the good whole days.
It's kinda like when people used to only play Dark Souls by turtling up behind their shield. Now everybody's ultra instinct god.

This is solid advice, look at Solo Leveling, every cool enemy is a bastardized copy that is there for the audience to remember said cool thing and then be amazed when their self insert wins, and it does this by taking inspiration from different genres and adding the most asinine spin you could imagine, knowing their audience won't care as they are focused on glazing the main character

On the other hand, Kinnikuman Lady (I swear I didn't wrote the previous paragraph as an excuse to post this panel), does things well. A fun and sexy spin off of an stablished franchise that made plenty of references and took a lot of inspiration from the wrestling scene back then

It's only copying if Donny Rage is played by Jeanne Claud Van Dam.
JCVD? Jalal Mehri and only because he's willing to pay for the role.

And then there's a sequel where the mother of Princess Kitsune (that was Kitana's work-in-progress name, shit you not) shows up wearing a mop as a wig and going "Too bad you... will be DECEASED!".

That's a pretty good parody, guessing it's regular Kinnikuman and not Ultimate Muscle, given the little miss Kinnikuman Soldier and all.

They had good eye for stuff. Shame their censorship was notoriously ass and their accounting was suspect as all fuck.

So the only good thing outta this "update" was the new kiyoko bust, kinda had the feeling that would be the case but good lord their ability to disappoint me even when my expectations are rock bottom is truly impressive.
I guess if you like Kaly or Evelyn there's that. Definitely a whole lotta nothing after two lackluster updates from the guy known for trying and failing to write disabled characters and putting a lame commission character as a party member. The art is hard carrying at this point. No finish line in sight, just a metric fuckload of rest stops as far as the eye can see.
