Once I stayed up all night drawing actual illustrations for a spot that ran nationally on short notice and I would like to tell the people who “hardly slept” because they were “writing prompts” that they are soft pathetic babies who can go to baby hell.
McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad
The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did'

Nintendo doesn't need AI because the people who do the homework that AI copies are under their roof
If you're a new hire working on Zelda, you can either chat the person who invented Z Targeting or you can pull up their notes. The person who designed the platform you're coding for is down the hall

"Oh sure, let me instantly generate every storefront image at once" is something no game developer ever said... until I added this feature to Kenney Game Assets All-in-1! 🎉

Honestly what brings me a lot of joy about this is that, for the company they hired to help optimize, this was the easiest job of their life. It feels like they opened the proverbial front door, immediately saw the problem, and breathed a sigh of relief
Not me still crashing out about how Helldivers 2 duplicated the entire ~14G asset library TEN TIMES on hard drives because they thought (hilariously, incorrectly) that it would [waving hands] SOMEHOW speed up load times, and then apparently never tested their 140+G of bloat theory 🤦

I ended up taking a risk and getting Air Riders even though the demo didn't 100% click. Full game totally clicks with me. Road Trip is especially nice. I've only had Transform Star for a few days but if anything ever happened to it I would--

Alright! Let's actually talk about this waterfall thing. It is an amazing showcase of many things that I adore from late 90s/early 2000s graphics.
I am replicating this in Blender through mere observation, so some things might not be fully accurate to the mind-boggling effects of the PS1.

Prime 4 looks awesome! I've seen people worried about NPC dialogue, and especially how some of it breaks the fourth wall with game instruction, and all I can say is GOOD. I MISS WHEN CHARACTERS TOLD YOU WHAT BUTTONS DO IN A TUTORIAL.

There's a VERY real reason I stopped co-streaming the TGAs, even though they were always my most popular streams overall.
Shit like this is a blight on the industry, and needs to be chopped off like the profitized growth it is. They ain't perfect either but pls watch @indiegameawards.gg instead.

perhaps the most egregious thing that happened with the Future Class was when The Game Awards took money from Old Spice in the name of the FC & simply... pocketed it
it wasn't used to fund Future Class initiatives, it wasn't used to help lift marginalised developers
they just profited from us

I don't really talk about it, but as a Marvel Rivals player since launch: I me stoked for S5. S4 kinda felt draining to me, and the battlepass didn't help, but S5 and the anniversary are looking fantastic to me.

New Steam hardware looks sick! A tiny computer that lets me easily play my games on any tv I want? Glorious. A new controller with two actual joysticks this time? Perfect. A VR headset? Exists

Is anyone else having an issue where every time you go to YouTube's home page it adds an official Microsoft Copilot ad video to your history? It's annoying as hell and I refuse to believe that it isn't an intentional thing
