> It's like they 3D scanned a real coffee mug with all its imperfections. Why would you do that? That's way more effort and worse results.
What? That's way less effort.
Picture this: You are a DEI hire, a woman or brown by definition, and you have no idea what blender or maya or 3dsmax or whatever the fuck is, you have the software on your computer and when you open it there's just a fucking box how do you do anything with a fucking box in this stupid program?
But then you find out, you can just take a photo of something and it makes it in 3D WOW that is so much easier than this retarded white boy thing with autistic editors that dont make things for you
So you go out and do the easiest thing in the world and take photos of something mundane like a coffee cup
then you go to Tim the only white guy in the office, and you ask (tell) him to take your photos and use them to make the coffee cup for you. When he finishes you submit your work (certainly not Tim's work) and collect your $100k/yr paycheck where you just take photos of things and give them to Tim where he does whatever to make them work in the videogame. You are a brownoid/woman and have "contributed" to the game's development, hooray.
And that's how modern game development works, and how most companies are now run
