shorts make no money and generate no real channel growth but everyone feels like they gotta make 'em anyway. You don't! It's fine!

"The cycle of violence must end with me, a mentally ill person, killing myself. So that all of you can finally be happy." Can we uhh. Retire that trope. Please.

HOW DOES RALSEI KNOW THE ANSWER??! #DELTARUNE

HAPPY NEW YEAR YALL 2026 WILL BE A FIGHT BUT BY GOD WILL WE FIGHT

If you start the Dungeons and Dragons movie at 11:56pm tonight, you will begin the new year watching a really great movie.

I will never understand why they replaced community submitted subtitles for this nonsense Real human people were happy and willing to make subtitles in a variety of languages for free, and the creator had full control of what submissions were used And they GOT RID OF IT

My favorite part of Stranger Things S5 is the part where Karen Wheeler wakes up from a coma and somehow immediately knows to grab a oxygen tank and that there will be a dryer unit to detonate it to kill a bunch of monsters she's never seen in her life

I dont usually do New Years Resolutions but i wanna set some things up for me to get on: - Set up my new mic/soundproof wall setup in my office - Create a pngtuber icon(s) - Make a playable demo of my game by the end of the year, ideally much sooner - Finish Starline 3 and Mindflayer 2

Boobs, ass, and penis Why not

There's honestly zero reason to use AI generated voices in your game when there are hundreds of people on Newgrounds and Reddit that will voice shit for FREE if money is the reason you turned to AI. I'm not kidding. I've done a few free VOs for people just for my portfolio.

I don’t believe in using AI in any part of the writing process I don’t believe in using AI for ideas, moodboards, brainstorming, building outlines, none of that From the first letter to the last period I believe it all should be done by a human hand The blood, sweat, tears of it all is the appeal

SHE'S BAAAAAAACK And has her art commissions open! artistree.io/orangetails09 #ArtCommission #CommissionsOpen #CommsOpen #DigitalArt #Art #Commission #ArtistForHire #HungryArtist #StarvingArtist

shut the fuck up. they've had 50 years to catch up and won't pay workers the compensation we're worth. don't piss me off.

"we USE ai, but our game wont CONTAIN it" is a clarification that no one has ever cared about & now CEOs are using it as a wedge to get their foot in the door as a part of a long term plan into normalizing AI, just like how 'it's just placeholder' was used with E33. dont cede even an inch of ground

If you ask a studio about their use of Gen AI and they're like "It's not at the heart of our games. Here at CorpoSlop, we know our underpaid artists are the soul. This tech is the inevitable future but we only have a little evil as a treat. Please let me live" I'm out. I wanna see "Wtf hell no dude"

“He raped me.” “Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.” “She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.” Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

I only pirated your game at the conceptual stages. In every other stage, from installation to playing the game to beating it, there was no piracy involved.

Zero tolerance is the ONLY and FITTING response to genAI being used in production of media. Sure, you might think it's too harsh. Sure, they might've only used it for early stuff in development, etc Listen, it's not even a SLIPPERY slope, there is NO friction at all unless we speak out against it.

The whole internet loves Milkshake Duck, a game about a lovely duck that drinks milkshakes! *5 seconds later* We regret to inform you the duck was made using AI generated textures that wasn't disclosed until the devs were called out

Merry Christmas. Have a #vo demo! Hey! My name's Evan Maple, and I'm a voice actor! If you need someone to sound suave, crass, or some other third thing, just let me do the talking. Written, directed and edited by the wonderful @tomschalk.bsky.social! Art by the amazing @tinted-mint.bsky.social!

So here's Battlefield 6 apparently lying about how they used AI generated content in their game VS an asset in the game right now

WoW study #worldofwarcraft #wow #art

Then Jesus christ, throw Trump to the fucking ground, slam his face into the concrete, and cuff the piece of shit

Aw man I love seeing this thing made the rounds again, drawn because I was tired of seeing historically inaccurate Luteces smut 😌🙏🏼

Oh.

Again so we are super SUPER clear The party got a report telling them to choose voters over donors and they said “no thanks”

Whenever I see indie game recs, I always see the same ones that are massively popular already having the spotlight. Which feels obvious why, they're well known, but I feel like now more than ever we should be highlighting genuinely small, lesser known indie titles. I wanna put smth together for that

"they don't know how to express the idea" here's rian johnson's storyboard for knives out pick up a pencil and a napkin

It's been said before but it really is funny how in the past US imperialism would be conducted under the flimsy but still tangible smokescreen of protecting freedom or opposing extremist groups and now the president is just like "oil we want oil this is all about oil God I want that oil"

I disagree, Larian is being made an example out of, it’s like putting a head on a pike. The message? “We don’t care if you made BG3. We will not forgive any use of AI”

The thing thats so insidious about using AI this way is that one of the main ways artists get hired are studios looking for art references and they find us and reach out. This is removing a major avenue to get work if they can just generate nameless derivations of our ideas.

Again going to bang my drum: *Even if* gen AI excelled at tasks *Even if* gen AI had abuse-guardrails *Even if* gen AI helped the environment & medicine It’s still built on scraping the world’s creative labour without consent. Gen AI is poisoned at the root.

The fact that the games industry is so dead-set on disregarding Concept Art as being part of the game it helps make is eternally frustrating to me. If the slop machine extrudes a design for you that you then force an artist to make "real", that still means there's AI generated content in the game.

Control Resonant, you're my final hope

consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.

Genuinely awful to read, there's no justification for genAI use Concept art - Where is that being pulled from? Whose art is being used for the dataset? And again, power/water usage Flesh out Powerpoint - Just why? It's a powerpoint Placeholder text - LOREM IPSUM IS THERE FOR A REASON

CONTROL Resonant is third-person action-adventure RPG set in a warped Manhattan where your upgradeable supernatural weapon, the Aberrant, and abilities allow for a customizable approach to gameplay. CONTROL Resonant releases in 2026. Wishlist now! #CONTROLResonant

Using genAI for concept art is so fucking stupid because like... that's where you get the cool shit. Thats the blue sky phase where artists make pieces of art that will be seen by a teenager later and change their life forever. Why would you want to start from mediocre. Why would you do that.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.
