To create exceptional games, you should consider recruiting the talented developers who previously left Blizzard and Activision. Provide them with the creative freedom to innovate and produce content without restrictive constraints. Focus on delivering quality experiences rather than maximizing revenue through excessive DLCs. Additionally, open-source the game code and encourage community-driven modding to foster a vibrant, engaged player base.

Bro is 2 years late, every big publisher is already trying to stupid shit with AI because whenever you say AI in a quarterly report an investor nuts.

This is the "superior Western culture" that fascists are willing to kill and enslave 90% of the world for.

An entire race of yakubian labrats

The proud weapon of corporations

Harbors fantasies of being Gods, consider themselves some type of ultimate being

Huge dicks and proud of it.

MFW white people are an entire race of Sephiroths

That's what i love so much about FFVII. The whole point is that Sephitoth is not cool, and that Cloud is not cool when he's trying to be like him.

AI can't keep context, fucking dipshit, just look at minecraft ai. For the price of 50 hectares of trees we made a next frame predictor

[–] Torenico@hexbear.net 5 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

AI Minecraft "gameplay" consists on looking at cows and then looking away to see if the "game" morphs into The End or something.

[–] TheModerateTankie@hexbear.net 28 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

Hooray! Finally! We did it! We created a plagiarism machine and took the artistry out of art! The chosen few billionaires can live forever in domed cities on hellscape earth, with AI regurgitating endless content. And what remains of the rabble outside can be hunted by ai drones for sport and amusement. The perfect society. my-hero

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 11 points 19 hours ago

Indie games that advertise that they don't use AI are about to get a huge boost

[–] EnsignRedshirt@hexbear.net 30 points 23 hours ago

Critical support for Elon continuing to lose money in embarrassing ways.

[–] BynarsAreOk@hexbear.net 7 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I'm pessimistic these grifters will win in the end. The only thing that still makes people push back is the negative connotation, its like NFTs only being the sign of a loser and a grifter.

But this is not the first time and this reminds me of the indie asset flip boom of the last decade. 10 years ago btw

If you remember Unity pretty much became associated with crap made by either students or grifters. But rather than a meaningful change or significantly lasting backlash what actualy happened in the end is Unity got a sizeable(majority at some point?) part of the market anyway and I doubt most people even remember or care your making a Unity game anymore.

Its true indie games are also of far higher quality too which is kind of the point. As long as Gamers get their slop and there are enough significant outliers to redeem the industry than all sins will be pushed under the carpet.

You can see some companies are already using it, e.g Paradox already started with their "we only use ethical AI" cop out. I expect this to become the norm rather than a general rejection.

If these porks really care about making the glorious white man feel good. How about they start making some jobs? Some entry-level jobs so I can stop being a basement dweller and learn some skills would do more for my self-esteem than some robot programmed to tell me I’m porky’s special little boy because I’m white

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 5 points 18 hours ago

No self-realization or fulfillment. Only the banality of treats.

[–] Imnecomrade@hexbear.net 21 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

AI is part of the reason games are not great, as well as overworked devs forced to rush games, crypto, microtransactions, 100 GB day one patches, etc. Games will be great if they are treated as art again. Every time I see an emulated PS2 game or before, I'm just astonished with how polished they are. Even the quirky games were fun. (Almost) everything was built with passion. Plus games were shorter and easier to beat for busy people.

But no, we just need more AI apparently, that will solve the issue. The Minecraft AI frame predictor, I admit, is a fun toy, but can't ever replace a genuine game. Billionaires are such lazy, slop-fanatic couch potatoes that claim workers are too lazy to run a society that benefits humanity.

[–] TheDrink@hexbear.net 13 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

The Minecraft AI frame predictor

What the AI dudebro set doesn't seem to understand though is that this is only able to exist because Minecraft exists. A genuine spark of human imagination and ingenuity made one of the most enduring and recognizable imaginary environments ever, and you can get a computer to kinda sorta create a dreamlike facsimile of it with artificial generation.

[–] Imnecomrade@hexbear.net 5 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

Exactly, though I just find the tech and concept involved in generating an interactable "movie" of a game interesting. It's a very trippy experience. I honestly don't know how the tech would be useful beyond making slop or to play as a toy, even if state tracking was implemented.

We can't really create anything new if we primarily use AI that depends on human civilization's work for the past century or so (including old media that exists within the datasets). The bourgeoisie is just going to increase the unemployed labor pool until civilization collapses. These bazinga brained lunatics and their anemic businesses that refuse to retain any workers, layoff millions, and force their skeleton departments to work at gunpoint somehow believe this current system will survive once they starve the proletariat off and replace them with energy guzzling AI that isn't capable of doing most of the jobs it is shoved into.

Death to America and the West. I can't wait for its collapse.

How many people would have to kick it for all of his wealth to go to his trans daughter?

[–] KobaCumTribute@hexbear.net 24 points 23 hours ago

In other words, throwing money at some chud lackies to make shitty mobile games with AI generated assets that will "somehow" end up with budgets in the millions and take a year for the same result as $3000 dollars of work over a week.

Honestly kind of jealous of the grift, because whoever gets handed the project is just gonna be stealing money hand over fist with no oversight or expectations as long as they massage his ego and talk themselves up enough.

From the owner of companies that make peeing rockets, self-immolating cars, and a disaster social media site.

[–] neo@hexbear.net 24 points 23 hours ago

Elon Musk talks a lot of shit. This dude can't even play the great games that already exist. See: Elden Ring.

[–] alexandra_kollontai@hexbear.net 17 points 22 hours ago

He says a lot of things.

I love treat simulator 3. The number of treats just keeps increasing!

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 17 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

treat gaming peaked with EverQuest 2 allowing Gamer-Americans to order Pizza Hut delivery in the game.

it will only be exceeded by the integration of AI-VR goon caves and automated erotic cake delivery.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 12 points 23 hours ago

There's a mod for Oblivion that lets you order Domino's pizza too so all is not lost, some G*mers are still holding the torch.

This is going to be a disaster because Grok is already woke and infected with DEI since it respects people's pronouns.

Reminds me of when Nazis made an AI Reinhard Heydrich that apologised for the holocaust

[–] volcel_olive_oil@hexbear.net 17 points 22 hours ago

giving AI Reinhard Heydrich apologizing for the holocaust huge titties so he won't be woke

Wish we had ulysses still because he'd be beside himself at bazgina god using ai to make murder fuck gambo on demand for G*mers.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 16 points 23 hours ago

Well, he has his family and stuff

I guess I'll just have to step up the Anti-Musk posting

Which is gonna be hard because I am more of a commenter

[–] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 3 points 18 hours ago

That is a good portion of what the industry makes now. The soul is long gone from most of it.

[–] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 4 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

Forgive me. I kinda wanna know how it comes out. Like I would be down for soulless gamer slop to hollow out one of the worst industries in tech. Then all that is left is mindwarping psychotropic sludge for grandma and indie passions of love on patrion for me.

Like for every triple A game that is simply a derrivitive sequel AI could literally do that without death march hours on developers. They don't get paid enough anyway. That sector of the industry failing couldn't possibly make things works for them.

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 3 points 18 hours ago

lmao I saw the PC Gamer tweet about this and all the chuds are malding over the writer being snarky about their shitty leader
