This is fucking awful. No matter HOW much time you spent on something - no matter how much of your skill and practice went into being able to do it - a complete stranger can IMMEDIATELY copy it into any number of things, take credit for it, and profit from it. I’m begging you all - GET OFF TWITTER

LAKSA, SAVE ME! SAVE ME, LAKSA!

I have no boughs and I must deck

"AI is good actually" - Developer who's last game was about the irreversible horrors AI can inflict upon the human soul

There is not a single thing in my life or career I've integrated the 'AI experience' into willingly, and not a single thing in my life or career that's been improved by having AI unwillingly shoved into it. I don't know why there's a demand for this.

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."

There's a lot about this that doesn't make sense, but one thing keeps bothering me: Why the hell would a company that primarily sells games meant to be played on PC choose to support a technology that's causing a RAM shortage, making it harder for people to build PCs to buy and play their games on?

So the guy himself is saying they arent really even seeing productivity gains? He said they are just using AI because they are afraid of being left behind. He is inviting this public scorn by repeating techbro talking points for no benefit at all. The mind of a CEO is fascinating.

I despise the idea of “oh well! Just gotta have to get used to it” no I don’t actually I don’t have to watch, play or interact with anything I don’t want to; I get what op is saying, it does seem like in uphill battle, but I plead to you all to just… want better

You can tell how cool and good AI is because every time someone announces they're using it they have to immediately rush to disclaim that actually they're only using it a LITTLE bit, just the tiniest bit, not even THAT much really. The future of art is here, and it's measured in acceptable ppm

Genuinely struggling to find a use for generative AI in an internet browser when I feel like most people just use them to watch youtube or shows on streaming services half the time.

Maybe this is an unrealistic expectation on my part but if your response to the question of GenAI is anything but "I don't use it and I don't want to use it" I kind of don't give a shit!!!

Not fucking Larian, man! I've believed in them since D:OS1! This is the last company I wanted or expected to do this!

Fellas, John Whinfield is one of the greats, and he's only getting greater! His acting is top notch and his range is insane! On top of all that, he's an absolute stand up guy and a joy to be around! He's got it all, so you better hire this man before he becomes the busiest voice actor in the world!

Anna's a super talented sound designer, and she's got a long list of work and awards to prove it! It helps that she's great to work with and just an all around wonderful person. If you need something to sound good, I guarantee you won't go wrong with bringing her onto your project.

you know what geoff, i can look past the wave of advertisements. i can look past the gen-ai pandering. i can look past the discontinuing of future class. and i can even look past the wrap it up stuff. but you crossed a line, motherfucker. stay away from miss piggy. first and final warning.

And now we're onto another World Premiere. I'm excited to share this first look from a legendary studio that it is an honor to have here tonight.

CONCORD 2

Every convention is gonna have a billion keychains of this guy drawn as a little chibi anime boy by people who call him their harmless oopie doopie and I'm gonna buy every single one of them

40000-50000 developers have been laid off since 2022

i will not watch tonight

I think I'm about half way through my first playthrough of Apollo Justice, and I'm so fascinated by their choice to turn Phoenix into kind of a drunk, selfish asshole. Even when he helps you, it feels like it's more cause he's just bored rather than actually caring about Apollo or the case.

If you cant believe in hire this man, believe in the hire this man that would hire that man himself.

Zane is such an insanely talented and genuinely all-around wonderful person to work with and be around. His range, both vocally and emotionally, continue to impress me. If you've got a project you need voice work for, please, HIRE THIS MAN!

I like this dude. I wanted to give them a lil voice.

Coming to bluesky and finding out I'm the only person who likes this design

While I'm glad it got removed, it doesn't make Amazon chill now. They only removed it because of the backlash, not because they suddenly developed a conscience. It pisses me off thinking about how much environmental damage generating 12 hours of AI voices must have done just to delete it all anyway.

Very easy fights you're having no problem with, immediately followed by a cutscene of your character, battered and bruised, going "There's too many of them! We gotta get out of here!" If a story beat needs an overwhelming fight, give me an actually overwhelming fight.

Started replaying Devil May Cry 3 again and I'm glad to say that it's still fucking peak

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

In case Crunchyroll paying its VAs peanuts for theatrical releases didn't make it obvious, the amount that companies would like to be paying people is zero dollars.

EMERGENCY COMMISSIONS OPEN A client didn't pay me. I'm now in a serious bind, relying on a credit card for food and travel to my new job. I need VO work immediately. I'll voice short stories, scripts, or character pieces. SFW/NSFW fine (no racism) Price: £25 + 25p/word. Dm me

Feeling thankful for all your support. Have a wonderful WAYNEsgiving!

Quote with a title screen that is iconic to you I can hear the music just looking at this. I can't wait till TimeSplitters Rewind fully releases.

The funniest outcome of the "Mamdani's going to turn everyone in New York into Socialist Muslims" narrative would be that the ONLY person he does that to is Donald Trump

Whoa it's almost like this entire cultural movement is based on fake bullshit at every level and our leaders should stop letting fucking social media dictate policy

This dude convinced kid me that there was nothing cooler than a red leather jacket and a big sword. And you know what? Kid me was fucking right.
