So the unbiased journalists they let demo the game this week didn’t like it, and now they’re hoping to muddy the waters by letting the players they gave access in November post about it. I’m not sure who the Nov group was, but I’m guessing it included people/non-professionals who are likely to be favorable to…

Late stage capitalism is destroying our world, and one of the greatest obstacles to moving on to something better is people citing Soviet Russia or Venezuela as exemplars of the alternative.

You say that like America doesn’t have the same things today. We call it “prison labor” so we can sleep at night, but it’s still a gulag. Not to mention the slave wages paid to undocumented workers in meat packing factories.

This game is going to fail and I’m sorry for those who hope that they’re wrong about it being bad.

That is completely false. The game is garbage and doesn’t know what it wants to be. It’ll fail and Rocksteady won’t be held in a high regard anymore.

“It’s so slimey and greedy.”

Who is “everybody”? I’ve yet to see or hear ANY hands on when it comes to this game.

I don’t know if he honestly believes we’re all idiots or if he knows and he doesn’t care, don’t know which one makes me angrier. In any case, I really hope that I’m wrong about the game but this just feels like another mediocre live service like the avengers or gotham knights.

“So what, we just some kind of.... Live-service game?"

I’m only giving this game a maybe of a chance instead of outright passing just because it’s Rocksteady.

Alex Jones hating on the gays yet at the same time shouting ‘I’ll eat your ass’.

I’m legitimately confused by him constantly saying “I’ll eat your ass.” I don’t want to kink shame, but it also is at odds with his depictions of manliness. That said, hopefully 2024 is the year he quite literally eats shit and dies.

To paraphrase Richard Spencer: “We expect our opponents to preserve freedom of speech, but we have no obligation to support it once we take power.”

“At least be intellectually consistent.”

Right wing humor is always...bad. As in structurally and in punchline. The ‘joke’ is always just like, ”haha, gays are icky” and like...that’s it? That’s the entire joke. It’s less comedy and more just openly stating bad policy that they also think is hilarious.

Yes, that is true. That is also objectively not anywhere close to machine learning.

I spent more time than I should have reading the store page and trying to divine if this was a parody or sincere, and then I realized: it doesn’t fucking matter, because the Jones vortex is just meaningless nonsense, but like, not in a fun dadaist way.

AI models cannot ‘learn’ in the same way a human can learn. It cannot have it’s own experience or perspective, it cannot create what a human artist can because it is simply not thinking. A child can draw a house without ever seeing another drawing of a house- an AI model purely fed with photos of houses could only…

Pretty much any of the ultra hard games. I’m in my 40's, so I grew up with a lot of NES and SNES games that were hard in comparison to modern counterparts, so it’s not that I can’t get through difficult games. The bigger issue for me is that at this point in my life I just don’t have the time to repeat the same boss…
