When a colleague and I used to visit a local college with a game design program they liked having us because we weren't afraid to tell the students how things really worked out in the wild.

It's a critical misunderstanding of what makes Metroid what it is and the audience who is drawn to the series.

Well now I just want Astronoid to cover the entire Doom OST.

That would require some considerable parkour, especially for Cormac!

Oh see that's where I went wrong. I'm only completely fucking ridiculous in person.

I'm a maybe! Been way too long since I got out and saw local dev friends but it'll depend on how things are going and whether I can still afford a cheeseburger by then... 😅

It's possible I will cringe so hard watching this that I will fold spacetime and wink out of existence.

It's kind of amazing how bad this is. Like not in the good way, which I don't like anyway, but it's so amazingly unlikable all the same.

Calling it now because the writing is on the wall - Alien: Earth is clumsy, lazy and sad. It trades in an established franchise for its clout but it fails to understand what makes it interesting or engaging.

Thanks Disney, you're the true Weyland Yutani!

Hahaha wow it's amazing how far they're willing to take this nonsense. Aliens don't corner like a car there guys. They're a tad more vertically inclined than that...

Starting Ep 2 and it still critically misunderstands the franchise in favour of unshocking, cheap set pieces that ultimately go nowhere.

I am now dead.

Anyway call me when the black box stops making shut up and gas lighting humans. Oh wait, that's mathematically impossible. Lol.

You cannot replace human curiosity and creativity with a tool. That is not how art is made. There will always be the need for authorship that is based in a living experience and imagination that can only come from interpretation and reflection.

Most devs know that we're at a point where using the technology means training it with a subset of our skills that managers will try to use to replace us. And that it might work for a short time, but the feedback loop of AI training on AI is a finite curve that resolves sharply to failure.

If you ask an actual game dev about AI you'll hear mixed opinions about it's potential but zero reliably factual benefit.

Probably not super helpful but: I can't speak to the 12 but I love my 13 and would happily buy another framework product
