The AI art was sometimes ridiculous and distracting, but I appreciated the history lesson. Believe it or not, a video game got me into studying the period of the proto-Reformation.
Sorry man, I'm not able to hire an artist right now. You should see the ones that didn't make it into the video. There are 63 images, each selected from a group of five, so I generated about 315 images in total to produce this video. It was a very tiring process. If the channel grows a bit more or if I find other ways to earn more money, I'll try to improve it. The next video will be about John Wycliffe and the controversies he was involved in. Thanks for the critique 👍
@@outerspection7321 It's a game called "Kingdom Come: Deliverance." It's set in Bohemia in 1403 so pretty much everyone is Catholic, at least nominally. But you are also introduced to the Waldensians as a persecuted heresy that a Vicar is trying to track down, and several characters including one priest is interested in the preaching of Jan Hus, and you can find a book in that priest's house with a sermon of Hus' written in it.
Is this some type of manga from Japan? Those seem to be Japanese characters in some of the panels, and the art style looks very manga/anime like. Was this created by a church in Japan? Curious to know which one, if so. Seems to be clearly made by Protestants of some sort, but when I went to Japan, I mostly only saw Catholic Churches (of which there were few churches period, just that most were Catholic).
Hi. You're right in you assessment :) I love 1980's anime, so I went for that look. If I had the money, I would pay a studio to animate my presentations. And you might be right, I have no idea how are Christian demographics in Japan.
@@outerspection7321 I hope you didn't pay much because these are obviously AI generated pictures. The noise pattern in the small details and lettering gives it away
This artwork is hilarious! The Gospel of "Open Romance" (37:13)? Priests STANDING on an altar (4:32)? Thermobaric bomb exploding in the distance (41:40)? TOWER-CRANE overlooking Medieval knights (47:02)? Viking meat-feast, right in the middle of Holy Mass (7:43)? Winged Perseus' cameo-showing (9:10)? Clerics sporting a modern tie (4:32)? Roman Corinthian capitals on a small church inside a bigger church? Pews for sitting (4:32) ? Priest with no shirt (7:02) ? Babylon 5 mitres (7:02) ? Flying warrior (11:07) ? Wrong date of Constantine (7:02) ? Medieval Soviet officer (35:50) ? 2 wheeled carts mowing down gardens (40:00) ? "Doniation" (12:58)? "Snoynod" (31:26)?
@@outerspection7321 Lol, I must be naive because I thought those were intentional artistic decisions at first. Now people won't be able to try "experimental" art anymore because people will just assume it's AI 😔 (no judgment though brother, got to make the best with what you've got until you can realize the full extent of your dreams)
@@JustAskingQuestions8571 the 1980s anime look is intentional, but not much of the crazy stuff. I really had a hard time convincing the AI to not put glasses on the characters. Next time I'll tryout other AIs.
