I'm slowly starting to enjoy drawing again🙏

A THREAD OF THE 10 BEST GAMES I PLAYED THIS YEAR IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER

In order to put to rest “did they actually use it or not”, Guillaume Broche said it a recent Q&A that they tried AI when the tech was new, but they didn’t like it, it felt wrong to them. And they will not be using it in the future.

I put like half an hour into a "cool games I played this year" thread and then I accidentally closed the tab before posting 💀

I'm gotta apologize to the E33 devs for being irate about the AI stuff. They said that they experimented with it for a short time while it was new and chose to abandon it after a short period and I choose to believe them. Game looks like ass anyway, but it seems to be artisanal ass at least lmao

The most important thing you need to know about any politician is that the nazis in office are their colleagues they see everyday while they have no idea who the fuck you are

FUCK THIS EVIL AI HORSE SHIT AND FUCK THESE CEOS AND PAY FUCKING ARTISTS WHAT THEY FUCKING DESERVE AND LEAVE ME ALONE WITH THIS SOULLESS SLOP anyway welcome to today's 12 hour stream of Clair Obscur

I feel like the most unlikeable human being on planet earth again today 🫠

"French onion soup" is a complete sentence that's commanding someone to kiss onion soup with tongue.

The medium where mtx,gacha,live service,survivorlikes have become normalized and accepted. The medium where scale is worshipped like nothing else. The medium where important history is lost and tech upgrades are treated as artistic upgrades. The fans of this medium is for sure going to resist genAI

On the one hand, I would really like a new Zone of the enders game, on the other it would probably look like the most generic UE5 slop ever instead of the incredibly unique cel-shading-adjacent rendering approach of the second game

they didn't need AI to make Silksong, it just needed some deeply insane guys to have a blank check for living expenses until their next thing was done, I think we should try doing more of that instead

I agree with this from a moral standpoitn, but it's just so much mpre convenient to have a game in your Steam library rather than try and find some torrent 10 years down the line

I think people struggle to be able to draw because they're firmly in production mode, desperate to get to a definite result. I think drawing is the most fun when you're in exploration mode, a loose goal in mind and seeing where it takes you.

If you use generative AI to "explore ideas" you are mentally weaker than even the smallest child. If you feel that you need generative AI to "structure your thoughts" you lack the confidence of an 8 year old. If you feel shame about your diminished inner world, you should. You're bad at daydreaming

The increace in graphical fidelity in videogames hasn't really gotten me to go "woah, this looks like a movie", I've just started to think that movies look like videogames

The actor Michael Sheen used all his money to start a fake debt collecting business, buy 900 people in Wales's debt, and excused it. If Musk bought ALL $194 billion in medical debt in the U.S. and excused it in the same way, he'd still be the world's riches man by hundreds of billions of dollars.

The most important question about the Tomb Raider remake is will it feature a boss fight against a child on a skateboard

I wanted to draw a more sensible Lara design that looks more lean and wiry like a rock climber. She still turned out a little bulky because I drew her lol

"Animals WERE harmed during the making of this videogame, but don't worry, we made sure to remove the puppy corpses from the final release" Swen Vincke

Tomb Raider Re-Re-Reboot Redraw

I spoke to a dozen professional concept artists working in games about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs easier, even if it's just used in "very early ideation stages." Zero said "yes." Most said it made their job harder. I learnt a lot about concept artists. You should too!

My favorite part of Angeline Era is the fuckass pong dwarf

Balance patch this, balance patch that... just give me Street Fighter 7, I'm bored

Man, I really liked Hi-Fi Rush when it came out, but whenever I try and replay it I'm like "this is the most boring videogame I've played in my entire life"

Bro why are IGN reviews 20 minutes long now, who wants to watch that shit

It's insane to me that the devs of Metroid Dread have released a new big budget game this year and no one's fucking heard of it

Me watching one of those save-restaurants-from-disaster shows: "jesus christ how do these idiots nnot taste their food beore serving it" Me working in the kitchen: *forgets to taste the food constantly*

On the heels of the failure of big money pushes for NFTs, crypto, wearables, and the metaverse, it is absurd to hold the position of "AI is inevitable and we must learn to live with it." It's also a craven position that suggests we shouldn't fight for what we value. We decide our own fates.

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”

Swen Vincke of Larian Studios responded to backlash for using AI with a promise to rewind time to before anyone knew about that. paletteswap.site/dif...

We have to adopt new tech or else our game will fail, which is why all successful games from a few years ago included blockchain technology

my favorite podcast is Castle Super Beast

Deep into my 2nd playthrouh of Angeline Era, and it's getting close to becoming my game of the year. It's a rare type of game that keeps getting better the more you play it. (Also doesn't hurt that I missed like 30%+ of the levels in my first run)

"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

NEW TOY AQUIRED

SteamOS doesn't so much have a beta and stable branch as it has a beta and outdated beta branch

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.
