finally making some time to dig into octopath 0... so lovely. both in its own right and because it very cleverly activates my ot1 nostalgia by reusing music (fittingly since we're back in orsterra)

it's like a warm jrpg hug ❤️

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to take Pikmin 2's realtime MIDI music system and translate it to Wwise using streamed audio instead?

No? Well I exported nearly 500 audio files to do it so you should check it out anyway, I promise it's interesting, i think :]

goodbye 2025

every year, i tend to end up where i expected to be. it helps to set expectations low. but it would be nice if i could ever surprise myself.

i'm gonna keep making music and feeling things. hopefully, i will feel something new this time.

PG&E is having a massive outage in San Francisco. Waymo robots aren't handling the traffic light outages well. Cell service is also out is some places.

No surprise as Waymo robots & cell have repeatedly failed during power outages.

CPUC regulates both Waymo and PG&E (Profit Greed & Explosions).

Even if it was super helpful, everyone should still be screaming about it.
We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier.

Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder.

Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder
“The ‘early ideation stages’, when worlds are being fleshed out by writers and artists, are literally crucial to the development of a game’s vision,” said one artist.
