So... the police raided a studio because of employee poaching and alleged copyright infringement? Really? If 10 employees all quit your company at the same time, chances are you weren’t a very good employer.

I don’t see any similarities to Titan fall besides the mech. It looks more like Contra or Metal slug. 

I agree. More people should have been upset about this LONG ago.

Because they’re expanding and the problem is getting worse. The local people HAVE been complaining about it. Additionally some of the rack houses are now and they’re building more.  When there was just 1 or 2 the problem wasn’t that bad.  Now I think they have 6 and are expanding.  They’ve killed property values for…

I don’t think Tarks’ tweet was intended to just get mad about the review. His comment makes it clear that he’s giving context to Yoshida Naoki objecting to the term JRPG, showing that in the past “JRPG” was at least sometimes treated with derision/racism.

Yeah. I’m US-ican born in 80 who grew up w/ JRPG only meaning RPG made by a Japanese company and Western RPG meaning ‘rent if you’re desperate’.

As someone who was an adult in 2006 I can assure you that saying stuff like this was gross back then too.

This article is unbearable, and might finally be the tipping point for me to leave this site. AI art is a tool. Saying it spits on “real animators” is short-sighted, and reeks of people that refuse to adapt to the times, like anyone saying that Photoshop, filters, or digital animation weren’t doing “real art.”

The article is just drenched in outrage. This is on par with the kind of burn-it-all-down writing you find in response to a tweet about how maybe a 25% tip for take-out is a bit much.

This. We (collectively) seem to have gone from bemoaning the heavy crunch in art and animation to clutching our pearls at the idea of it being less labour-intensive.

How dare people want to make labour obsolete, obviously work is the only worthwhile endeavour.

“I see potential for tools like these to let an animator let this process propagate their ink and color easily across [an] entire shot, for example. It’s potential like that that gets me excited about this tech, and why we do these experiments in the first place,”
This is the real take here. No one is going to replace…

I work at another multinational (non-games) giant, and our exec line runs the same crap at us. It’s all cloud this, live service that; meanwhile my product, which supports infrastructure that keeps a good portion of the company afloat, is struggling to backfill expertise at even a 1:2 ratio. The tech industry is about…

Apologies for misgendering you. Can you let me know your preferred pronouns? They’re not easily accessible anywhere on this site, not even in your introductory article: https://kotaku.com/i-m-still-on-my-bs-but-now-i-get-healthcare-1847549762

And still no Woman will touch your micro cock. Well done!😂

lol, knock it off, Buzz.

I tried to hear you but then you go and ruin it dick. Funny how I bet you wouldn’t say something like that in person. Only hiding behind the PC would you dare say something so ignorant. In the real world you’d get your ass whooped!

I think it’s less about the men's career and more about not getting sued or harassed by the perp’s fans and management. It's self preservation.
