One game developer told Kotaku that after seeing DLSS 5, 'it feels like there is no future for me' in the video game industry

I think the NVIDIA people just saw that it’s «more realistic» and that was good enough for them. And, to be fair, it is.

But they are so drunk on AI that they missed the inconsistencies, the fake imaginary lights, the impossibility of controlling the result, the random addition of makeup, the fact it fucks up color balance and contrast…

And the COST !? Two 5090s when most people couldn’t even afford one !? Even if the results were perfect, just forget about it ! No sane developer will spend any money on a feature less than 1% of their players will even experience, let alone enjoy.

the cost

I have a suspicion that they are ramping up to the acceptance of cost-prohibitive technologies in order to eventually transition people into cloud based gaming rig services. I can envision a AAA title that is sold as a service and cannot be run on a reasonable computer

If this is the master plan, a lot of these people might be very worried to learn about how expansive the indie sphere of gaming is across the whole world, encompassing what used to be AAA genres like 3D survival horror, platforming action games, etc.

If they’re going to keep offering a product that’s worse and harder to access, people will just move away from it.

From my experience - people who abuse AI don’t see AI’s cracks any longer. Their writing changes. How they see things.

It’s like the plastic surgery people. They don’t realize how weird and off-putting they look.

Yes ! They will unironically send you messages full of “it’s not X, it’s Y” and use lists everywhere when it’s not appropriate at all 😅 It’s amazing to me that they think they are still writing in a perfectly normal way

😅 Hey there fellow human Fediverse user!

✈️ Wanna get away from all the AI slop?

👍 Well you are in the right place.

😎 Lists are great, and bulleted lists are classy, but emoji-bullet lists are the coolest most human thing ever!

🧐 Using glue in place of pizza sauce actually binds the fat and makes it more healthy!

🫡 Do YOU have two 5090s on order like a good person?

You’re absolutely right!
Emoji bullet lists aren’t just cool — They’re changing the communication paradigm.

That’s great advice, I would like to add that one of the most efficient and delicious ways to eat a pizza is to roll it tight like a cigar and then shove it up your rectum.

No sane person is going to spend that massive amount of money just to see what AI thinks their games could look like. The people who buy games want to see what the devs made them look like. Not what an AI thinks the devs made. Absolutley no one wants a middleman between the art and artist. As that’s supposed to be you. We don’t need AI there. That’s dumb as shit, and expensive as shit to boot.

Not to say your wrong, because your right. But developers absolutely waste time on sub 1% player stuff, just look at mmos.

Yes, but MMOs spend that time on the 1% of players that bring in over 50% of the revenue. Not on a feature everybody hates, and that doesn’t make money, just because NVIDIA says so.

Can’t particularly argue with that.

Even if I opened the hardware, I wouldn’t use it. I want what the artist intended, not what some AI slops together. That goes for games, movies, books, paintings, etc. I’m not paying for AI, it brings no value to me. I didn’t care if it’s a filter, or something generated from a prompt.
