I'm curious, how did you come up with the archetypes and moods? Were they generated automatically, or did you think them through?


It was a pretty iterative process to get to something that felt 'real' – I was going for 90% accuracy, with a little extra abrasiveness since I thought it would be funny.

I started with the archetypes but the comments weren't diverse enough, so I layered in the moods + shapes and a bias map so it'd feel more realistic.
