it’s so awesome that I don’t think about art like this
So be honest... is this actually an upgrade or a downgrade?.. #Zelda Zelda (2023) Zelda(2026)

My take on the GTA 6 30 fps thing is that yeah I don't like it. I do think there's some truth to them only getting away with because it's Rockstar. but at the same time I do understand people making an exception. They usually make great games.

Wanting games to fail is pretty fucking lame actually
I genuinely hope GTA6 is a cyberpunk level disaster on launch

We're pretending we don't like BOTW visuals now I see. Okay see you in 10 years when the same people will be telling you the game has aged like wine like they did with Wind Waker.

Everyone is absolutely overreacting to this. I say this as someone who generally can't stand 30 FPS and has motion sickness issues.

TLDR on the Big Walk article. Some awards judges say they won’t vote for games that used gen AI during development. House House used a chatbot to help fix bugs. The studio says it didn’t use AI to make the game’s art. The example they gave was a bug in Unity’s graphics system. The game kept trying to draw shadows from objects way behind the player, so it ran about half as fast for a bit at sunrise and sunset. The devs dug through the code and even asked someone at Unity for help. A chatbot eventually suggested a workaround, which the devs had to change quite a bit to get working. The fix ended up being about 10 lines of code. This is where I wish people had a little more nuance. I’m all for calling out gen AI when it rips off artists. I also think asking a chatbot why your game runs like garbage at sunset is a different use from asking it to make the art players see. You can have concerns about how the chatbot was trained and still care about what the devs actually used it for. That detail matters to me. Everyone and their mother was singing Big Walk’s praises. Now I’m seeing people curse out and wish bad things on the same devs who made a game they were just having fun with. You’re allowed to enjoy a game and disagree with a choice the people making it made. I just think going after them personally over what sounds like a pretty minor use is a bit much. Like, can we at least get past the headline first?

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
House House used LLMs sparingly near the end of Big Walk's development, mainly to fix bugs in third-party code. They estimate well under 0.1% of the game's code was affected, and they didn't use generative AI elsewhere. bigwalk.game/faq/#ai pcgamer.com/games/puzzle/b…

This is such a sad way to look at life. I can't imagine being so mindfucked by societal expectations that you give up genuine good friendships.
There isn’t a single benefit to men having female friends. They don’t even give you social proof because you just look like their gay sidekick or friendzoned beta male orbiter. Preselection only comes from being seen with a girl who is obviously your girlfriend.

The worst part of being an ambivert sometimes is that like crazy urge to want to be really social and then having the crash when you get overwhelmed and wanting to hide away somewhere.

Do CoD devs just not know how to make maps? There are like 2 that are barely tolerable in MW4 and the rest are proper dogshit. Even the worst BF map clears these.

This is a fact! Our bodies contain the DNA of Dragons and that counters any attempt to make us bats. But beware we can also bite back >:3
We kirins are immune to turning into bats. So bite and peck away all you want for fun :3
