  • this one was definitely my pleasure

    “how can you fools not see that Wikipedia’s utterly inaccurate summary LLM is exactly like digital art, 3D art, and CGI, which are all the same thing and are/were universally hated(???)” is a take that only gets more wild the more you think on it too, and that’s one they’ve been pulling out for at least two years

    I didn’t catch much else from their posts, cause it’s almost all smarm and absolutely no substance, but fortunately they formatted it like paragraph soup so it slid right off my eyeballs anyway

  • Chatgpt, tell me if I'm attracted to this woman in a video game or not, quickly!

  • why would anyone want to play as an attractive Puerto Rican when peak sexiness has already been achieved

  • god I looked at your post history and it’s just all this. 2 years of AI boosterism while cosplaying as a leftist, but the costume keeps slipping

    are you not exhausted? you keep posting paragraphs and paragraphs and paragraphs but you’re still just a cosplay leftist arguing for the taste of the boot. don’t you get tired of being like this?

  • holy shit I’m upgrading you to a site-wide ban

    so many paragraphs and my eyes don’t want any of them

  • Game studios love AI! The gamers … hate it

    Jump

  • imagine if you read the article at all instead of posting 6 paragraphs about an impossible game you’re fantasizing about, that LLMs do nothing to enable because they’re stochastic chatbots and don’t understand game systems (just like you!)

  • you know it’s weird

    I looked for established reviews of Suck Up, the perfect local LLM game that isn’t local and is barely a game, and I couldn’t find any

    all of the hype for this piece of shit that came out in 2023 and made zero impact was from paid influencers and the game’s dev Gabriel spamming reddit on a regular basis

    so I guess what I’m trying to say is: fuck off with this shit, we’re not buying

  • Weird that you’re downvoting me already. Lol

    weird that you’re complaining

    The game Suck Up! is the perfect example save for the part where the developers chose to run it server-side on release

    the perfect example. yeah, this is barely a game and they couldn’t even make it run locally. all of this shit is just an awful tech demo for an expensive gimmick. none of it is fun, nobody plays it. why in fuck are you even here pumping it?

  • the one that nvidia’s currently pumping as AI is the frame generation one, I believe. upscaling predates the current bubble and is mostly fine — I usually don’t like it outside of very limited use on my steam deck, but that’s personal preference

  • for an LLM? it’s a heavy GPU-bound workload that’ll tank performance for anything else using the GPU

  • pretty much same! I’ve heard good things about some of the games published under Sony, and their umbrella as a publisher still includes excellent studios whose previous games I have very good memories of. but… I just can’t swing the price for a PS5, it really doesn’t feel worth it just for a few games, and I’m not a huge fan of the hardware design. they also seem to have fumbled PSVR2, and I was a big fan of the indie VR scene and how accessible it was on the PSVR1. on top of everything else, I feel like I’ve gotten by far more mileage out of open platforms than I have from any modern console — so for me, just like you, most Sony releases are invisible unless they’re the ones that bomb

  • Sony (I guess defensible, idk),

    their two highest profile failures as of now are Concord, a live service Overwatch clone that was shut down two weeks after launch, and Marathon, an upcoming (or possibly cancelled) Bungie live service Escape from Tarkov clone that doesn’t play well, isn’t anything like the original Marathon games, and infamously has already had several credible accusations of art plagiarism leveled against it. for the latter, I suspect we’ll see a second controversy surface over generative assets; the art that wasn’t plagiarized was starkly ugly and weirdly generic, and I don’t buy that it was that way stylistically.

    that shit like this is a normal part of doing business points at a gaming industry that’s rotting at the head, because as unpopular as live service games are, corporations like EA proved they can be very profitable if you tweak the right dopamine receptors to hook enough whales. it’d be nice if EA and Ubisoft were irrelevant now, but unfortunately the industry is still exactly the same exploitative piece of shit they helped make it into. myself and anyone who gives a fuck about quality can keep playing indie games all we want, but these corporations don’t care — they know that a mediocre live service with gambling mechanics will make many times more profit than any indie hit, so they target mediocrity. sometimes they miss and hit rock bottom instead, but who cares? the executives responsible will decimate the studio that developed the game with layoffs or eliminate it entirely, and because capitalism is a death cult that’ll be seen as a win.

  • if only the industry could be rid of Ubisoft and EA, we could finally play our AAA live service gacha games in peace, without being exploited for money

    if only we could go back to the good old days, when the most prominent people in gaming were:

    • the out and proud fascist who runs Epic
    • the out and proud fascists who ran id
    • Todd Howard
    • fucking Peter Molyneux
    • it’s ok, a developer who’s existed since the Amiga days has made a good game!
    • I regret to inform you that the above-mentioned developer has willingly sold their entire studio to EA in exchange for a sack of money and now the sequel is a live service game with gambling mechanics
    • at least we’ll always have the Wing Commander guy. I wonder what he’s up to?

  • also:

    Russian Spyware now with built in support for fascism. Fucking garbage

    it’s fascism except when the exact same backend is used to make the NPCs in my garbage generative games say fash shit, then there’s no harm done

    what the fuck even are you

    that’s seriously amazing! I’m glad you were able to get things going relatively quickly.

  • you’re back! and still throwing a weird tantrum over LLMs and downvotes on Lemmy of all things. let’s fix both those things right now!

  • like seriously how in the fuck do you misunderstand both LLMs and decompilation this badly[1] and then come at someone else because you think they don’t comprehend your fucking nonsense? but here you are, fucking posting through it

    [1] here’s a hint since you’re married to not fucking getting it: the decomp took a significant amount of passionate labor and tries to respect the original work as much as possible; it won’t even build unless you provide your own (preferably purchased) copy of the original game data. the LLM just enables lazy plagiarism and is mostly used by fucking shitheads to do the work of fucking shitheads.

  • ????? I’d ask you what this even means but the most recent posts in your history equivocate painstakingly decompiling N64 games with utilizing AI slop generators because… you think Nintendo doesn’t get paid in both cases??? so you seem very at home posting fucking nonsense
