"More or less okay with the way we're using it" is just manufactured consent from the guy who has the power to fire all these people in the worst games industry job market that has ever existed

I hope there's enough pushback that Vincke reconsiders his position. I would really like to enjoy the great work all the devs at Larian are doing without upper management forcing this unnecessary shit into their workflow.

the larian stuff sucks to hear a lot. you have to be a true all-timer loser to think generative AI is useful for concepting ideas or artwork. you let the machine do the fun part you dumbass. it doesnt tell me you think efficiently it tells me youre a fuckass who's given up on being interesting

“Oh I only used AI for placeholders or idea starters” does not make it better! If you are using it for any part of the creative process then you’re no longer doing the process!
"placeholder text" "concept art" either the temporary thing you put in matters to the process, in which case you need to get a human to work on it, or it doesn't, in which case you can just as easily put a bright pink rectangle that says PLACEHOLDER in and save everyone time and effort

consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.

Seeing people turn on Expedition 33 after it won so many awards at "THE awards show" is both expected and still disappointing that people feel the need to attack art as a need to "justify" their liking of another piece of art.

Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.

Wonder why your frame rate is crap, and things are stuttering while you're streaming or playing a game when Discord is open?
Well, these could be the culprit. Turn this stuff off.

Epic pays for licensing fees for the games they give away for free as promotions. Which means even if YOU aren't paying for it, you're giving money to JK Rowling to harm transgender people AND elevating her stature by giving her franchise higher numbers.

Dont accept this- they still get money/reimbursed for the claims.
Meaning profits still go towards queen transphobe.

We should always strive to experience old media and their stories. Watch old movies, read old books, listen to old music, play old games. Just because it existed before you does not mean it does not have lessons to teach or something to inspire.
