What if episode 7 had a PERFECT ending? #TADC

So look man if we're just gonna be online here watching all these big studios come out and lay down on the tracks about Gen AI going "I have to do this for some reason." then I think it's more important than ever to celebrate games from based devs who are out here openly posting "Nuh uh, fuck that."

how i feel whenever i post

They are absolutely going to blame this guy for everything huh

Haha, oh man The Onion out here making some funny artic-- wait a second...

Mandatory crunch time to complete a demo is not what we sign up for as video game workers, yet it's a reality we're all too familiar with as studio execs exploit our passion for the games that we create and love. And it won't stop unless we organize.

Been training TM Opera O and I kind of hate her lol. I like Admire Vega though. Can I train her instead? #umamusume

I see they learned nothing

I wonder how people have been able to make gorgeous, beautiful, splendorous videogames before 2025.

Part of the issue is the very term AI has been widened out broadly and infinitely so now we're playing this language crapshoot, during which people can either be mistaken, use the wrong term, not fully understand the term they're using, or just lie. It's a fucking mess.

As it turns out, “you are too stupid: let the water poison computer do everything for you” is not a sustainable business model

"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

This drives me insane. Because like...maybe instead of typing the prompt into the plagiarism machine, you could just...tell that prompt to the artists??? Hello??? This is so fucking stupid...

do you want to see the before they patch it out and cast its legacy to the winds forever . here is your sightseeing log (noncomprehensive) (if you find more than what's listed here please let me know so i can add it) (i love this fucking deer) 🧵

Studio heads believe "GenAi is so fucking magical and will take us back to the old days of smaller teams and shorter production times" when the obvious answer is either make a smaller game or Universal Basic Income 😀 But when the bubble pops, the artists will be the first to suffer, not him.

i hear jp already beat me to it, but

Games industry illustration of the "Nazi bar" theory at work.

Bullying companies does indeed work. They’ll stop using the technology if we have our voices louder and they’ll hear us

2026 about to become the Year of Corporate Bullying

"Oh it's just inflation" No jackass, they used to fucking mark down these consoles. The PS3 launched at $599 US Dollars and five years later I got mine for about $300. Five years ago the PS5 launched around $500 and without the current holiday sales it's $550 with the disc drive. This is stupid.

Similar to how voice AI use has been suggested; for 'scratch' or reference. I know many actors, myself among them, who got jobs from the scratch work. Every example of AI being used I've seen is cutting away a job that someone coming up would take or get on their journey. Maybe that's the point.

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.

Not every country’s going down the same path as the UK – the High Court of New Zealand has ruled that a ban on puberty blockers for young trans people should not be enforced ahead of a legal challenge from a trans health body: https://goodlaw.social/6pig

what do they gain from this

Just want to say, people who try to conflate generative AI with shit like *enemy AI in old video games* are either willfully attempting to muddle the two to downplay the issues with GenAI or *actually don't know anything about how fucking video games work.* Be for fucking real.

Its so funny seeing companies go "oh we use GenAI for ideas when we're stumped!" You know what I do for inspiration? Read a manga, play a game, watch a movie, go outside and peoplewatch, etc There's so many things I CAN do for inspiration instead of asking ChudGPT to generate ideas for me

It's kind of impressive how fast the CEO of Larian burned away all good will they earned from Baldur's Gate 3 lol
