I had a nap and missed this utter horseshite article from GI Dot Biz
The survey was of 68 people, in Bristol, by Meaning Machine Games who *checks notes* sell Gen AI Slop NPC's for a living
SURE, THIS IS TOTALLY LEGIT REPORTING
Can't believe Jeff Kaplan emerged from the Shadow Realm to drop some dirt on Blizzard and announce the sequel to Fistful of Frags!

6000 games is like 4.8% of games on the site. That doesn't seem like a great number when $100k will cover like a couple salaries for a year at best?
A step in the right direction but I can also see companies attempting to bypass some of this by releasing the dogshit further down the line after the majority of the target base have bought the game.

Holy shit
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
The Sims 4 is now allowing modders to sell their content through an in-game shop and EA takes... 70% of each sale. I think that's way out of line and 40% above the already controversial typical revenue share for platforms. Creators deserve better.

Am planning to stream tonight. Probably around 9ish as I need to get home from swimming and make dinner.
Will likely be continuing with the Hobbit. I think we're only 2 or 3 sessions from finishing it :)
So the Telegraph is taking this well

Hi Bluesky 👋
I’m a Japanese indie developer working on a story-rich 2D adventure called "The Perfect Prince."
I care a lot about emotional storytelling and player choice.
Nice to meet you!

every leftist i know is very excited about technology but unfortunately they want tech that improves society and makes people's lives easier and that's harder for wealthy prdophiles to build a trillion dollar industry bubble around

Sony is shutting down Bluepoint Games, the studio that delivered the Demon's Souls and Ico remakes and co-developed God of War Ragnarok. 70 jobs are to be lost. www.gamesindustry.biz/remake-speci...
Simple fact is this:
If you’re a member of the “gender critical” movement, you’re part of a pedophile ring whether you want to be or not.
I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.
Just added a line to the Credits screen: No generative AI was used in the creation of this game.
