Drawing can be stressful

Isn't it well known that drawing is pretty difficult to do and artists can be some of the most unhinged people?

Not joking artistic people can have some really fragile self image sometimes and it's pretty easy to bother them at least that's what i know

probably. i'm an artist, but i play lots of video games, so the fragile ego thing got crushed out of me by getting game overs and then doing like the dark souls meme said and "git gud".
nowadays, i relish the idea of my art having flaws, it means that i can get better still and power up to new heights; new ideas can burst forth like lightning and i can go "even further beyond"!

I think this depends on the person, some do art or what they love for enjoyment, and just put things out there, and accept feed back as an opportunity to grow and develop their craft, as they enjoy simply doing it as much as possible.

These folks tend to produce some of the most amazing works eventually and i enjoy watching them grow.

Think:

Kentaro Miiura - Berserk over the years.

Hiromu Arakawa - Full metal Alchemist, 'Arslan War Records

Tite Kibo of bleach, and look at his early stuff, vs now.

Eiichiro Oda and how One Pieace looked back in 2000s vs toady.

Akira Toriyama - Dr Slum, Dragon ball vs Dragon ball Z

Yudetamago - Ultimate musle manga (Kinnikuman)

George Morikawa - Hajime no Ippo

TakeHiko Inoue - Slam Dunk vs Vagabond

While others are in love with the idea of being an artist, and may simply want validation for little work (especially in this day and age). And as such they defend what little they have, rather then evolve their skill. (not limited to art, happens in all fields).

I think what i am trying to explain is that a persons skill has to have work put in to get work out, and asking others to appreciate as it is hard, does nothing for you. We all know things are hard, i am a person who was born with medical defects, and i have lived with them all my life, did i make excuses? Yes at the start, but then i learnt that you cannot expect people outside to give a shit, you have to give a shit first, and put the work in,and people will see your dedication and passion, expecially if your communicating it reliably for long enough, and are not simply fronting.

In any field art or not, a person should continue to work on it and refine it, until they can communicate effectively with the target audience, and with this achieved, you get something special.

This is why games are so important to me, as they are arguably works of art, with said artists coming together to communicate something special to the player, an experiance which if done right, will carry with them for years later in thier lives!

Think:

Final fantasy X
Final fantasy xiv (up till end walker)
Xenogears
Chrono trigger
Chrono Cross
Silent Hill
Resident Evil
And so much more..

This is not a slant at potential frustrating starving artists out there,but rather a rally for you not to lose hope, to take it on the chin and esentually be better thent he AI crap that will be dominating the market real soon!

Sorry for the wall of text folks!

Thats right when artists know what they are doing they end up creating something worth looking at for decades and decades.

Indeed, and the work put in to their art, will help them to find and refine what they are doing, what works, what does not and how to continue to refine.

This imho is what makes the best art, as one has to ever learn to love the grind towards it, or they just do.

You just grab a pencil and slide on a paper, what's stressful about it?

Soccer sucks

That's your opinion tho.

I mean why would this suck while american football wouldn't?

Not joking artistic people can have some really fragile self image sometimes and it's pretty easy to bother them at least that's what i know

I'd just say that being an artist doesn't make someone a special cast, they're still humans like you and me but with a specific hobby (that can be made into a full job).

I feel that sadly like in many fields there are people who tend to do more drama (either because of jealousy someone's better than them while they're being mediocre) or just act as if they're special (pro tips: nobody really is). The same rule applies to everyone and it's never a good idea to be jealous over someone else because they made the mistake of managing to live their lives with the thing they love to do.

Yeah it's just that artistic fields can hold people like this more often than not

 

[Ikagura]

Yeah it's just that artistic fields can hold people like this more often than not.

I dunno if it's correlated to socially inept people (then again it may just be a coincidence) but I feel like some fields are more prone to have bullies (which are probably people who got bullied previously but then again it's hypothetical) that often abuse their power when they get a bit of fame, the art was just the way they got popularity.

I heard that the art field, like the theatre or even acting one, is a cruel place that isn't gentle towards people that cannot stand for themselves.

I often feel like some really talented people just quit because of others when they had a great potential. A big shame if you'd ask.

 

[ThatOneLum ThatOneLum]

And why does it suck? Can we get some proper explanations other than "sports bad"? I mean it's a bit of a cliche that gamers (and anime fans) don't like sport.

Arguably it sucks because it prioritizes the entertainment of spectators over the health and wellbeing of the players. Like rugby, its a full contact sport that can and has left people with life-long health complications including everything from tumors to severe arthritis and even chronic cerebrospinal fluid leaks.

Yet we're still encouraging young people to do this so we can watch them fondling balls. In some cases "encouraging" them by making it one of their only hopes of getting a decent start in life/education.

Then fans also resist a lot of the moves that have been suggested to help reduce the physical strain and injury because it 'changes the sport'

'Soccer' sucks because of the turning if a simple game into an excuse to kick the shit out of other people and wreck everyone's stuff. At least, that's the legacy that Footie has here in the UK.

Most likely yes it's these sort of people.

It seems sometimes talented people may suffer from things like low self esteem which can be something that hampers their career in whatever they are talented at due to these communities engaging in excessive bullying and harassment.

I hate coloring! It takes up so much of my time. I rather be drawing something else then color!

I also hate slow drivers in the fast lane. If i could i would throw a bob-omb at them.

Well, I can say that Megami Tensei always has a terrible fanbase.

and yes, atlus should release new games, instead of re-releasing old games with almost always its new terrible content and its practices against the consumer such as full price and dlc.

 

[Ikagura]

I kinda disagree, SMT has a more niche fanbase.

Persona has a different one.

SMT 1&2 (and If...) getting a proper english localised remaster would still be nice. Same with the first two (three if you count the two Persona 2) Persona games.

I'll try but I can only frame it from my own point of view and I know it isn't widely shared:
- Watching a game of football is absolute torture because of how long it takes. 10 seconds of action inbetween seemingly never-ending periods of lining back up to do it all over again. The last two minutes of a game takes like an hour.
- The commentary that's always some old player making non-statements like "you know, they got a job to do, so the only thing to do is to go out there and do that job" because they don't have much else to offer in terms of insight other than specific situations that remind them of one of their own old games.
- Concussions and their potential impact on player life expectancy. Granted, they're adults and make the choice to play, but that doesn't mean they should be compromised so much for their post-playing life.
- Football culture in the US. That kind of loud and in-your-face "let's drink a beer and paint team logos on our tits" thing just seems overbearing and trying to compensate for other shortcomings. There's also probably some link between sports and drunk driving, but I would assume that is not specific to the US nor to just football, but it's unfortunate.

That said, playing a little pickup game in the street two-hand touch style was always fun, and when they package the televised games in such a way that they cut out the fluff so you get just the plays, that's far easier to appreciate. But I've just never been a football guy.

Thats any sport, its called being part of the game, people do it in esports too. This isnt compensating thats just regular good times with your friends. I feel like you never went and participated in an actual sports arena.
Saying the sports and drunk driving is somehow linked is really stretching there. Thats just bad decision making, if sports is the leading cause of drunk driving, then i guess bars and sports arenas would be filled with fatalities, and no one would be outside during an event.

I've been to sporting events and I wasn't a loud asshole about it. I also never said a leading cause, don't put words in my mouth. Thanks.
