"Rowling will undoubtedly receive substantial royalties from the Fortnite skins… That money will likely be funneled into her hate campaign against trans people.
"… over a third of… funding for the [U.K.] case came directly from Rowling…"
no one in 2025 should have to install spyware to play a videogame, let alone one that has a nearly 100% ineffectiveness track record. if you don't want people to get mad at cheaters then bring back vote to kick or stop designing systems that incentivize cheaters lol

Yeah I only use AI for the fun part right at the beginning where we're kicking ideas around and not worried about budget or expectations. Just the best part of any group creative endeavor, me and my team challenging each other with our most visionary ideas, I'm looking to automate that
"look we're not using AI in the final product we're just using it to speed up the conceptual stage" is what a lot of dopes affecting an enlightened middle position keep saying. I truly do not get that one. You hate imagining stuff? You don't like thinking and conceptualizing? Get a grip

Maybe this is an unrealistic expectation on my part but if your response to the question of GenAI is anything but "I don't use it and I don't want to use it" I kind of don't give a shit!!!

Again I say: how fucking interesting that remote work technology is bad and not worth adopting despite all research pointing to productivity gains, but genAI which offers NOTHING is so important to adopt and force on people who have no use for it despite all the horrible things genAI does

Well there goes any interest I had in this game and my faith in Larian as company. Shame, because I was a fan of the entire Divinity series up to this point (even dragon commander had stuff I found interesting)

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

it is a genre where PVP has an undercurrent of *spite* that is poison to me. A genre where you can be trying to do a complex PVE objective with no/low gear and get rolled by a trio of Pro Gamers who will gain no meaningful benefit or loot to killing you, but go out of their way to do so anyway.

It's been raining almost everyday in Sweden for a month and I haven't seen the sun this whole time either. I feel like Brush Buddy trapped in the water hat 😭😭😭

The appeal of stuff like cassette futurism has morphed over the past few years for me from childhood nostalgia to a very genuine desire for tactile, reliable, functionality over flashy, futuristic aestheticism that seems to only make things more difficult

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.
