This. There’s some, like, art and english literacy talent involved in higher end prompt craft, but at the end of the day it’s the computer doing all of the heavy lifting.

On the one hand, kotaku’s breathless anti-ai art bent is really tiring, but on the other hand: good.

It transforms it from making a loud “ZZZZZAP” to “pew pew”

Yes yes old man, in order to download a jpg you had to download up hill both ways and it took 3 days. Meanwhile technology has improved and so has our standards. And I pay a shitload to ensure those standards are met on my side. Meanwhile I’m over here downloading a fucking warframe or ffxiv update at 150kb/s through…

Speaking of launchers, can devs please stop using patchers? Put your fucking game and it’s updates on steam properly or fuck off. Your single, independent server rack in the foggy mountains of tibet are not adequate for the task. It should not take me half an hour to acquire 600mb.

lmao, it was you! I remembered that while reading this article, and commented out loud “and so the monkey’s finger curls.”

I’d say burger flipper take, but most burger flippers are more socially aware than this.

The 3070 is retailing for $50-100 OVER original MSRP right now. What the fuck are you talking about?

Re: getting too high.

Release date + 3 months.

Clearly the correct choice is italian language but voiced by japanese VAs. Japanese origin product, italiano setting. Subtitled into english.

We’ve heard literally:
“what is this place?” and “Mushroom Kingdom here we come.”

That’s 9 words out of a 90+ minute movie. I really don’t think we have enough to go on at this point with how any of them are going to sound as mario.

They’ll fly off the shelves because they’ll likely be great games with great writing, that may release flawed (like most video games these days) but will receive years of after care. Just like TW1-3 and CP77.

I don’t see ads, but none of my filter lists seem to include the top of page videos that nag you all the way down the page in the corner of your screen.

Dan came back, actually. AFAIK as someone who hasn’t really followed GB in a while, he’s effectively Jeff’s replacement.

IDK what “era” you watched/listened, but the current senior staffers are Jan Ochoa, Jason Oestricher, Matt Rorie, and Dan Ryckert. This doesn’t include the new faces that got hired on after the old guard all left. Jeff Bakalar also moved from suspiciously frequent guest to actual staff.

That’s capitalism for you.

Dead space 1 looks and plays like shit when viewed through the modern list. That one is understandable, especially considering it’s them testing the waters on potential new games for an otherwise dead franchise.

Ignoring the bloodborne crybabies..... Why? What’s to remaster in a game that’s only 5 years old and still looks very good?

If you’re in disbelief now, wait until you get to the anger phase by witnessing what their products are, and realizing for this collab to have happened, an incredible amount of money and/or clout needed to be generated.
