our desire to seek the answers to questions, mainly in gen z and below, but also across the board, is languishing. ppl kinda just sit helplessly on it til someone appears on their feed to talk abt it, and the pathos/ingroup status of that person has more impact on believability than info quality
i don't want to hear your most boomer complaint. what's your most millennial complaint?

referring to metroidvanias as "hollowslop" to simultaneously piss off people who like metroidvanias, people who like hollow knight, people who want a better genre name for "metroidvania", people who are sick of the word slop being misused, and gradius fans who want to see more checkpoint recoveries

As I do more animation myself, I'm developing a deep appreciation for when it's done well and
oddly I see more really solid animation like this from tiny teams?
I don't get it! Most other art tasks/etc, oh yeah, high budget game, we can't match that, but animation? There's often no correlation!

Working on different models/animations for item chests in ABYSS X ZERO, to better suit the context of what you'll find inside and the level they are in. (yes, even the last one is an item chest, technically)
Now we just need a proper item collect jingle...

Game dev cycles are epitome of the whole “It takes one person 10 months to gestate a baby. You can’t gestate a baby in 1 month with 10 people.”
The idea that 'AI can speed up dev cycles' would require a premise that dev cycles are long because people are taking forever to make assets (so you could replace them with shoddy slop and it'd go faster), which you could only believe is true if you've never actually tried to make a video game
At Gamescom, one sentiment remained consistent: We need to make games quicker. And to do that, more and more studios are turning to AI.

Y'all better get real fucking comfy with the freaks and degenerate art if you wanna survive in a fascist regime. Your sensitivity will be the death of you if you cannot learn to handle discomfort.
We've seen this before. How many dystopia novels are y'all going to have to read before it sticks?

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.
