@Satansblade81 in a world without demos yeah this is a fine practice. you're ***** out of luck if you buy this physically use the code and then find out you don't like it. $80 down the drain.
@Divergent95 I'm really not sure there's much crossover between people who'd buy this and people buying GTA 6. Certainly not enough to hurt their sales that badly.
@Propaperpusher Not much of a future when AI data centers are poisoning the water and destroying environments so you can guzzle down your generated slop!
@Skinny-Pete they didn't create that out of thin air. The models are trained on stolen art regurgitated into a mishmash of slop. Say what you will about the banana on the wall but it was a statement made by a human and that's leagues better than slop shot out of a machine with a prompt.
I can understand an old dude seeing something like this online and reposting it without thinking so I'm not like outraged at the guy but personally I will never support something created using generative AI in such large quantities.
I mean I kinda get it. The main concern continuously is "Why are you nerfing weapons and buffing enemies in a PvE game" which is a fair thing to be annoyed about because it does feel sort of pointless. That's been the main issue through most of these controversies and yet Arrowhead just keep making the same mistake as if they haven't been told time and time again that's something the fan base wants to see much less of. The fans can get a little over the top with their whining I agree but the blame falls on the devs as well for not listening despite every update post being like "We're listening to our fans".
@Issen_Mode I say again. Do you not understand that dubs are useful for the visually impaired? Or are you saying those people should not be able to engage with things?
Little bit upsetting that in a world with a character roster as huge as Sonic that we've only had two actual Sonic characters as dlc but I suppose this is nice too.
@Yor-sama I know better than trying to argue with someone who willingly enjoys and consumes AI slop! I prefer art drawn and made by humans with passion.
I don't think I can ever bring myself to laugh at this sort of situation. Countless hours of work go into making games and as much as I don't care for live service things a lot of people worked hard on the project and now most if not all of them are going to lose their jobs. The big companies suck but in the long run the only people actually hurt by this are the devs who now have to find new jobs with essentially nothing to show for their years of work.
Bloodborne doesn't need a remake it would be pointless. It's just barely over 10 years old are we seriously at the point where we have to be remaking perfectly good PS4 games instead of making new stuff.
Diehard Sony fans are so funny because they ***** on the look and style of the Demon's Souls remake, called it soulless and ripped into it and then they didn't make another game for 6 years and now everyone's suddenly up in arms about them being shut down. I'm not for it either but they can't act like Bluepoint was some beloved studio and not a remake/remaster merchant.
I think it's worth mentioning because it's not like he'd publicise it but the artist of Vac Woman/Design K was outed as a sexual assaulter about 10 years ago so it's best to keep that in mind when voting for them.
@Shad361 Because it's not their art? It's an algorithmically made piece of slop that's stolen and reworked from hundreds or thousands of actually talented artists. There is no ethical way to use AI for art unless the people whose art is being scraped actively consent to it which in 99.9% of cases isn't what's happened.
@ZeroSum The rules clearly stated not to use AI so if they actually had artistic talent or some actual integrity they would have tried with their actual talents instead of using a tool that actively steals and copies the hard work of others.
@Shad361 You wouldn't because it would be someone actually putting effort into their art and trying. Someone using AI isn't effort or talent it's ***** and that deserves to be called out.
As long as we don't get any Pro exclusives I really don't mind sticking with my base PS5 because the pro just isn't something I can even think about affording now or anytime soon amazing performance boost or not
@Medic_alert it's a kid's game and they sell best on the switch is probably all I guess? the pull to their platform will be people who like this and want more from the same series and then logically have to go to a Sony console for it
@Kanji-Tatsumi that's kinda insane to me honestly like the entire thing looks amazing but because there are no trophies it's enough to make ya go "actually no I won't enjoy this anymore"
@rjejr yeah showing off the boss fights in a series that's famous for it's iconic boss fights it's indicative of the entire dlc! that makes perfect sense!
It's kinda insane that the info just gets dropped like this outta the blue like this seems like exactly what they should have announced on the podcast thing a week ago! Excited nonetheless! I can't wait to play hi-fi rush!!
@VaultGuy415 Bloodborne also shipped with terrible load times, frame drops and entire progression halting bugs. Comparing the two games at launch is crazy you just really want to hate on Elden Ring for some reason clearly
All this has done is put pressure on the studios of those 4 games to announce something soon or spend ages getting hounded in their comments by people who want more information

Re: Shuttered Dev Bluepoint Wanted to Remake Bloodborne, FromSoftware Blocked It
@ButterySmooth30FPS this is what I'm saying! the game is perfectly fine as is all this talk of it needing a remake/remaster is so stupid.

Bloodborne doesn't need a remake it would be pointless. It's just barely over 10 years old are we seriously at the point where we have to be remaking perfectly good PS4 games instead of making new stuff.
