   another reason why if you let people put content in a marketplace, you have to strictly enforce computation limits. otherwise sadness ensues.
   
   thats long been an issue in second life where everyone has like 100k polygon monstrocities with full textured everything. because extremistan marketing is a bitch, and you can choose to make a high performance asset and lose sales or make it the prettiest and crush everyone's GPUs :neocat_woozy:

     @susie the textures are what they are because its cel shading. they actually use a slightly tricky shader i've seen people go through recreating it in blender

     @icedquinn And funnily the textures rarely are what makes something pretty or not. Most often it is the animations and "physics". Any half-decent textures will do. Like in Genshin the models and textures are actually pretty darn bad, but the animations make the characters seem cute.
