So why are we calling assets that made it to release placeholders? Where’s the line there?



Because the people they want to sell their game to have overwhelmingly stated they don’t want this new generation of AI technologies used when creating art. Its sorta like arguing that using corn syrup is cheaper and quicker than sugar or honey, so why not use it? Things aren’t so simple as “nicer” and “faster”, and only a small subset of people seem in favor of AI technologies used creatively.

Of course if you are making art for yourself, by yourself, then who cares what you use for anything.



If it doesnt matter then dont use AI for placeholders. What’s the argument here for them?


I think its funny that you keep talking to yourself. You probably feel like you need the last reply too.





Oh cool, now I’m an irrational person who reacts quickly. Thats a good start.

Do you even know the point you are trying to make? You make a bunch of preconceptions and then claim you won’t do that, so thats fun too.

You can keep writing nonsense arguments all you want, you aren’t an artist and should probably do what you said and shutup instead of making a bunch of assumptions.



What does NASA have to do with the creation of art? Art and science are not the same thing. What might be good for progress technologically, like flying to the moon, might not be good for a different field.

Art is all about the time and energy spent. If Clair Obscure came out of an AI machine that took 3 minutes to create it, most people wouldn’t play it and it wouldn’t have won any awards.

Cutting corners or “saving time and energy” is the opposite of exploring creatively, and these tools are not capable of unique thought or inspiration.



People want to know if AI was used at all. No matter which part of the process its used in, its replacing human labor. You could argue that AI generated art will have an impact on the human-created art that replaces it as well.

I would rather Steam tag games as AI and then the game can add a section in the description explaining exactly how it was used. You can decide if they were ethical about it or not at that point.



Original language is always better in my opinion. Filtering it into English has to leave out or change something.

I think for other people though they see the English voice actors as more professional or higher paid or more famous, whatever it is.



I like your dollar an hour rule though, I might use that in the future. Its funny though, my most played game was free and I have 2000+ hours in it!

Edit: I forgot rocket league was 30$ originally! Still a good deal!


I like some of the early access development styles used in things like Enshrouded and Satisfactory, so mostly ive been spending on games like that. I like the idea of collaborating with a player base to create a game together I think.



Its bad press for them. The whole game is bad news for them all the way around. I bet they won’t ever mention it by name again.



Its military propaganda. Tends to do well with military folk and is used for recruiting young people.


I work at a computer parts store at we already have people coming in asking for “GTA 6 ready PCs” so its at least going to have a huge launch just from hype alone.

It really depends how Rockstar gauges success, whether its copies sold or total profit from transactions. Those goals lead to different games, although to be fair they did make two different versions of GTA 5 and just packaged them together, the single player game and GTA Online, so they might be able to achieve both goals this time too.


How is it? I might need to find some sort of social game to play soon and I already own it, I think.



There’s gotta be some trick that makes the fighting fun right? I can’t figure this game out either.






I dont think you know much about the minecraft scene anymore. Java is still the better product, by a large margin in my opinion. Bedrock is a closed off version for kids on console.


It only worked for fortnite, I thought I made that explicit but if I didnt, my bad. For some reason fortnite console version allows mouse and keyboard, at least thats why I think it works.


Ive literally done it, but thats not to say it might not work all the time or under all configurations. I was using I think librefox.


The problem is that he biggest networked games, I.e. those with the most players online, won’t work on linux. Until fortnite or apex legends or LoL allow linux machines, people will be stuck on windows so they can still play with their friends. The same thing happens with most of the sports games except those players are almost entirely on console, and they are locked in there.


Because it allows them to collect and process more data, which can be used or sold, increasing their profits.


You can run them alternative ways usually. Fortnite works with mouse and keyboard through gamepass, although gamepass is a shit deal just for fortnite.

I know a lot of people dual boot or use a virtual machine with windows on it too.
