I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone say that upscaling OPTIONS are bad but I’m worried about games like monster hunter where upscaling and frame gen is used to make the game playable in most cases.

Didn’t even know this existed lol, crazy how decentralised the game industry has become now that e3 is gone. There’s no official “time to announce your games” part of the year anymore.

Don’t really care that it’s genAI but It’s really weird that the only part of the trailer that’s obviously gameplay is the first few seconds…

I agree with you, it was more of a commentary on “what would happen if we had AGI tomorrow”.

We’ve been 3 months away from AGI for a few years now and it’s debatable if we’ll ever get there with LLM’s. Looking into the results of AI tests and benchmarks show that they are heavily gamed (tbf, all benchmarks are gamed.) With AI though, there’s so much money involved, it’s ridiculous.

Fortunately it looks like reality is slowly coming back. Microsoft’s CEO said that something like “AI solutions are not addressing customer problems.” Maybe I’m in a bubble but I feel like overall, people are starting to cool on AI and the constant hype cycle.

I’d agree that in the short term, AI is overhyped and in the long term, who really knows.

One thing I’ve always found funny though is that if we have AI’s that can replace programmers then don’t we also, by definition, have AI’s that can create AI’s? Isn’t that literally the start of the “singularity”, where every office worker is out of a job in a week and labourers only lasting long enough for our AI overlords to sort out robot bodies?

I’ve thought about this before, I think it’s because the devs/publishers want to have their cake and eat it. They release a new game every year at full price for that up front cash then they nickle and dime you all year and then reset with a new full price game.

I’m pretty sure the amount of money EA makes from FIFA or Activision makes from COD would go down dramatically if they just had a single live service game.

My understanding was that this little 6 man team did work on the game in an r&d role, testing stuff for levels, characters etc. So they weren’t a useless team, but I doubt they were as big a deal as the media is making out.

Rust makes multi threading very easy you can just use

thread::spawn();

But rust makes Async difficult because it’s naturally stackless so you need to create your own scheduler or use someone else’s like Tokio. Also, people have a bad habit of conflating async with concurrency which makes it more confusing.

I’m going to preorder monster hunter wilds, I’ll do it the day before and pre-download it. Does that count?

I hope they can do it, I’ve always adored monster hunter but I remember playing DD2 on release and the game struggled at 30fps, default settings. The game has gotten better by some amount since then, I haven’t been back to that game though.

I assume RE engine was mandated from on high but if DD2 and MH6 struggle with performance, I’m assuming that the next open world game from Capcom will probably run on UE5 like the rest of the industry.

Sony owns Bloodborne, Miyazaki can only be as involved as Sony allows. No way an exec doesn’t know this lol.

If it wasn’t for the game awards section at the top of the page I would’ve dismissed this as “they bought the domain from someone else” wtf it looks like some kinda cat fashion webstore.

Maybe that was a website template? IDK how to explain this lol.

Currently the game doesn’t have any AI disclosures on its steam page. I don’t know if you need to do Crypto disclosure. It doesn’t look like there is any info about this game other than a pair of CG/“in engine” trailers

I could swear it was higher earlier this year/last year but looking at the survey results, Linux climbed to 2% this survey. I think maybe that half remembered headline was something like “Linux is higher than MacOS at 1.5% market share” or something like that instead?

“You can turn it off”, “it’s an optional feature”, they didn’t even last a year! What ever happened to slowly boiling the frog?

Ahh! Of course! The problem with Concord was the price! That’s why no one cared during its free beta weekend!
