Given the shitstorm that’s hit the teams behind The Alters, Magic: The Gathering, and Jurassic World Evolution 3 (among other titles), I’d be deeply intrigued to hear why someone would consider it a safe move to use generative AI on their project at this point - let alone go all-in on it.
I'm getting real tired of not being able to trust that a video game doesn't have AI crap in it:

As someone who loves bloodborne, I really do think people have gotten into a frenzy/circlejerk about a potential remaster. I really don't think anyone really has any concept of /why/ they would even want a remaster/remake in the first place, just that they do.
saw some on christmas eve, baffling
QTEs are fine actually
there are only twenty five letters in the alphabet. use them wisely
killing characters off has become somewhat of a cliché. be more original without losing any of the heartbreak by having your characters all dead at the beginning, and one by one coming back to life as the story progresses, to their empty homes, broken families and meaningless existences
apparently i'm really into "leisure" podcasts (?????)
so glad i decided to go to uni now of all times 🙃
That's exactly how
It's real easy to write a LOT if you don't have to worry about making it good
You say that you have a dog? Yes, a villain of a one, said Clesippus. And he has puppies? Yes, and they are very like himself. And the dog is the father of them? Yes, he said, I certainly saw him and the mother of the puppies come together. And is he not yours? To be sure he is. Then he is a father, and he is yours; ergo, he is your father, and the puppies are your brothers.
My favourite bad argument from the history of philosophy
every culture has some bizzare food stuff so i can't judge the green jello itself, you do you
but why would you have it on the main plate with the meat and gravy and everything else? are you eating it /with/ the meat, like in the same bite?
Oh and Aveline in DA:2
- but when it keeps happening it's easy to fall into thinking that there's something else (even if unintentionally) going on. (2/2)
I think a part of the issue here is also the pattern, it's not just Cassandra that wasn't available as a lesbian romance option, it was also Jack in Mass Effect, and Morrigan in DA:O
Any of them individually is fair enough, you want these characters to be real people they will have preferences (1/2)
It's so neoliberal that my mum makes me brush my teeth :/
okay fine just a quick one - half sword training day for this "son" of orkus
The Flowers of Evil is a dreamlike and symbolist work paying homage to Charles Baudelaire. It incorporates references to major themes from Les Fleurs du Mal. On the left, a dark wreck emerges from turbulent waves, evoking Man and the Sea or The Voyage, symbolizing wandering and the quest for the infinite. Above, a colossal feminine figure, framed by shadows and branches, recalls The Giantess, embodying a sublime and unsettling beauty. At the center, three women stand as allegorical figures or enigmatic muses, intertwined with gold and shadow, representing ideals, temptation, and melancholy. Their posture suggests a mystical dance or ritual, surrounded by feathers and flowing veils. The orientalist architecture in the background, with domes and golden mosaics, echoes Baudelaire’s fascination with exoticism and distant landscapes, as seen in poems like Exotic Perfume. The composition blends chaos and luxury, enhanced by the use of gold leaf, which amplifies the themes of decadence and the allure of the sacred.

My homage to the French poet Charles Baudelaire.

Fenris was one of my favourite characters for the whole 'romancing a companion through max rivalry instead of friendship' mechanic. Which by the way is one of my favourite ways of handling character relationships, it still had its problems but it gave a way of having a tangible mechanic for -
