That was my biggest issue with the game it’s a great character action game but a terrible RPG and I bought it thinking I’d be playing an RPG so I was disappointed.
It almost feels they made an action game and then 80% into development they said “oh darn we forgot to make an rpg” and then they tacked on elements at the end.
So yeah this article is right, just do hunts and fight stuff.
I’d be interested to know how and why they use gen ai for reference and effectively jump starting ideas surely using real reference or inspiration from other artists does the same thing and infinitely more useful.
It seems they basically said we are using gen ai to do the thinking for us and then we just create or iterate on that so we can say a human made it.
Missing the point of why it’s important for humans to make it.
I may be missing the point or the context but it sounds more and more like these companies will end up getting ai to do all the creative part and the human will just have to follow and “paint by numbers” just so the devs can tick a box saying “yup done by a human hands”. 😂
I don’t care if you want to make games exclusive but to clearly have a deal in place and then take it away seems so shady to me.
I think the issue is and has always been gamepass, you can’t make these crazy budget games and sell it on a subscription that price. Your revenue needs to come from somewhere else and it isn’t pc as they have gamepass too.
It will be interesting in 5 years or 10 years what the landscape is
The more AI they use the less I will pay for it 😂 If they keep going like this I may as well just go to cex and buy a second hand copy so they don’t see a penny
A slippery slope to review a game again after patches, is MH wilds getting another review after years of updates? (Did you do that for cyberpunk?)
Like where do you draw the line? And why do some games get this treatment and others don’t (or is it a number of patches fast that does the trick, which probably means they had them in the pipeline because they knew the game was not great at launch and sent it out anyway).
Making an article about the improvements is a better option.
Because if this precedent sticks it just goes on to prove dev can make a game unfinished and broken and patch it later and even reviews will be updated so they get to have their cake and eat it too.
Well yeah, also each console kind of has a genre identity I like story driven games and jrpgs so PlayStation has been my home for a while (even though jrpgs are everywhere now but that my base, big jrpgs will usually always be on a Sony console and usually first)
Nintendo and Xbox has their own identity too, if they all were tasked to make the same game (a fantasy rpg for example) the results would be different and skewed towards their general identity.
Nintendo will be have a completely different colourful art style and gameplay mechanics (that probably being their focus)
Sony would prioritise story and voice acting, art direction
And Xbox I feel would do something kinda in the middle of those two extremes (I was never really an Xbox guy but I feel its exclusives tries to prioritise graphics and gameplay… but story maybe not as much especially compared to the production values of Sony)
Which is great I like that each has their own flavour
Overtime isn’t sustainable long term but I’m fine with it IF you compensate properly. People will work OT if you pay them more for it, where it gets bad is unpaid overtime
I'm going to take a guess and say AI hasn't negatively impacted you( yet)😅 If you think it will stop at mood boards you are delusional sir because once it gets better it will be used for more complex things. And instead of needing 70 talented artists they will need 50 and then 30 etc. Especially once it can be trained on larians own art.
My only wish (since it isn't going away) is that I know how it is used so I know whether to support the product or not. (Side bar My biggest hate with gen ai art is prompters try so hard to pass off their art as real...no you are not you are lazy and scum for lying.. but i digress)
I find it hilarious when all these people are blindly saying "AI is the future" and calling people that don't like it "fundamentalists". Then suddenly realise oh energy prices are up (that's happening now), phone prices are up(rising 7% next year), computer parts are up (Nvidia reducing its consumer chip production in favour of AI chip development)and consoles are getting crazy expensive. Oh a bunch of people lost their well paid jobs all at once and the economy is dropping fast because spending is down.
Uh oh the AI bubble crashed and people's retirement are in trouble.
Oh the next generation is dumber and using AI to cheat on everything and school?!
Oh the spread of misinformation is through the roof now since sora is so easy to use.
These are all real possibilities but noooo keep calling em fundamentalists and bury your head in the sand and believe a studio or companies as a whole who want to make money will always have creative integrity at heart 😂😂😂 Those “fundamentalists” will be waiting to say "I told you so" when you complain how things suck right now.
Yes Ai has great uses but it needs regulating as right now its the wild west.
And yeah if you like AI more power to you I get the appeal I actually do but to act like people that hate it are in some way some sort of radical group of naysayer is a bad take imo.
What is an indie anymore? Because 33 had a publisher in Kepler. Is it even an indie? Or did it just get that classification because the IN HOUSE team is small.
Those two awards are the head scratcher for me (and Verso should have won best VA lol)
@Frmknst
Your reply was pointless (but at least you type it yourself so congrats ) yes people are screaming because it’s true we are seeing it play out now.
Or should I be more apathetic (like your reply suggests) and just use whatever I’m being shoved in my face and just say “I’ll end up using it anyway ah well”
If we use it in 10 years time how it’s advertised now, we will all be dumber especially the future generations.
Idiocracy is becoming more of a reality now than ever.
Ai continues to create shockwaves that negatively affect average people, whether it’s job security, energy bills soaring, cost of products, the environmental fallout, not to mention the scary ability to spread misinformation with how realistic videos are getting.
All for what to generate art, emails or work we are too lazy to learn to create?
How is that a net positive for the average user?
Yeah there is medical and science benefits but that’s not how it’s trying to be used/marketed (it should focus on those fields exclusively).
This is a race to the bottom for sure.
I predict the wealth gap to increase, high quality jobs decrease and the hospitality, healthcare and gig sectors be the only increase in jobs.
And debt will continue to skyrocket
Replaying it on ps5 (previously played on pc) still doesn’t run perfect, man the re engine should not do open world games
Still like the game it’s fun to just chill and vibe to 😂
SP was in a lose/lose situation as once that joke was out no matter what they did they would annoy potential buyers and lose sales.
(I never bought it so they lost one right there, despite understanding why they did it)
The vast majority of the buyers don’t even know the controversy and are casuals so a boycott was never going to be catastrophic so unless you have a mirror that sees alternate timelines you don’t know how much they would have sold if the joke never happened.
Because 3.3 million in a month is good but not exactly gang busters, ff16 did 3 million in a week.
We shall see if it has legs and for the rest of the team I hope it does well.
@TheEnygma Played about 7 hours and this stuff grated on me so much I stopped playing altogether.
(Stunned bosses still dealing damage if you touch them is BS too)
The HD community man, seems very entitled. I mean don’t they release FREE updates?
It’s like walking on egg shells every announcement.
From the time they cried at the thought of signing up to a free psn account in order to play the game (guaranteed they have made accounts before), and the devs caved. I was thinking these devs are in for a rough ride with this lot.
And I was right unfortunately, good luck AH I hope you are making enough to keep your staff.
“What does need regulating is passing off AI as human, and that's where we can hold to account companies via transparency, which will in turn allow us to close whether or not we support human or AI products. There is where the we can show that we value human input over AI and make companies retain workers.“
That’s exactly one of the things they are fighting for regulations though.
By that logic no profession is technically essential and most if not could be replaced with technology with enough enivitable advancements, but the appeal of creative ventures like writing, art, acting etc. is that humans are doing it just like sports.
If you lose that you lose the appeal, which is the reason they want companies to be transparent (and not use artists work to train their AI without consent)
@riceNpea oh wow sorry to hear that, it must suck to see trades like that have their demand shrink.
“ However, as consumers we do have the power to influence how pervasive AI is in this field. We can choose to not buy AI-driven products and we can seek to support traditional work.”
Yes and this is the exact reason artists are speaking out loudly now if they stay silent people wouldn’t know or talk about it like we are now.
Most artist don’t even want it stopped just regulated properly, because right now it is not and it need to be addressed.
So tiling is the one that speaks to your soul, my point still stand what if that satisfying element was gone or heavily minimised, how would you feel?
“ Nobody appreciates the 'artistry' of a house and how it got to be the way it is”
I bet that can be a bit frustrating.
But this is also the fear with AI taking creative roles though, no one will appreciate it if it’s just something a AI spat out and maybe an artist cleaned it up
So it’s planning with a good eye for aesthetics, sounds like a good job.
I sense a great deal of pride when you mentioned tiling temples in marble, and I agree marble is beautiful.
So if they automated all the more creative parts from your job(didn’t do the job as well but good enough) let go half of the industry and paid who was left less money as the unique skills you have are less needed.
How would you feel about that? (Genuine question not attacking)
That still sounds more technical (like creative problem solving) and less expressive but okay as I am not in that field it would be ignorant of me to try assume.
So would you say designing these electrical installations requires a lot of skill and is the highlight of the job?
AI has a place in technical and medical advancements, but creative things like art needs the human element and a lot of it.
@riceNpea ah so you don’t have a creative job, do you have a creative hobbies at least?
And if you don’t have any really (which is fine) what’s the best part about your job?
I have to disagree, this my friend is not a revolution to me…I usually find the people that say that are people that don’t or can’t create themselves (but I may be off base in relation to you so my bad if I am)
@Flaming_Kaiser sadly I agree with you, it will make the world worse and more creatively bankrupt.
The most inspiring thing about acting, voice acting, writing and art is that people creating or performed it. If an AI did 80% of the creation it’s the AI’s “creation” and it loses all appeal it’s not impressive, inspiring or anything it loses its magic.
Could you if basketball for example just had one player on each team and all they had to do is pass the ball to a robot arm to shot for them.
@riceNpea that last paragraph about what you’re bothered by has nothing to do with the topic so i will ignore that little random rant at the end.
The issue is simple all those examples don’t disprove the worry, the issue isn’t that jobs in general will be gone it’s that the need for that skill set will dropped a lot.
Why have 10 artists when now you only need 1. Will the economy be fine? Yes. will this generate new and different jobs? Yes. will people lose their jobs? Yes
You are right it will open doors but that is not what they fear, their fear is the specific door that is closed(or harder to open) Creative door. And it affects waaaaaaay more discipline all at once, actors, writers, artists etc. And the job that it will introduce are far less appealing to a creative (it really gets the creative juices flowing being in a team of two fixing a generated content).
So glad I’m not in the H2 community, I’d hate to work on the game also. But this is what happens when you give in to their demands (which was the dumb reason to review bomb in the first place) give them an inch they take a mile. Now if you do any little thing they don’t like they know how to get what they want.
The fact that you overly simplified what I said ( I was giving EXAMPLES to anime in general MHA for example and I was trying to give understanding between people in the comment section… tall order I know) proves that you are being overly defensive and are missing my point.
Feel free to read my earlier message again in your own time.
I won’t reply to you after this don’t worry 😂
(Also who said I see every generic anime character and see little girls?! It’s the ones they purposely design to have a more child appearance which was my whole point which you chose to miss…Did you not read my comment right? Seriously read it again)
Okay let’s be real here, you can like something without defending everything, there is a very obvious visual choice made.
they draw younger characters in certain ways (Height being one of them).
Stating characters are voiced by adults is a terrible come back, children cartoon characters are voiced by (mostly female)adults too (probably Tara strong 😂), but in cases like this they make them sound super young it’s odd.
And also let’s not get it twisted, anime has a weird side when it comes to depiction of characters.
Like having child like proportioned characters being 1000 years old couch fire emblem is an example.
OR being over sexualised and they are still High school
Again like what you like but this isn’t the mountain to take the high ground on haha
Respectfully disagree, I dont thinks it’s bad by any means but I definitely don’t think it’s anything mind blowing it doesn’t even feel remotely “original”
It does make me wonder in an alternate reality would it be as hyped if it starring a “blander” character design with only one less form fitting outfit (no judgement really, but I do wonder as people try and side step that’s a massive part of the appeal)
For me it’s rebirth so far no question, shocked a bit none of the staff picked it.
We clearly do not share the same taste in games because I found HD2 boring and repetitive (I know all games are, before anyone come at me with that I mean I was conscious I was doing the same thing over and over because the presentation and game itself wasn’t immersing me)😂😂😂
And Stella blade was basically just fun combat and eye candy (decent music though)
This game is balanced so oddly, from bosses to weapons it’s all over the place it’s laughable (cough perfume art if war) 😂😂 The main reason I can’t give it higher than 8.5 so many busted things around it’s combat that are not satisfying(crazy cameras on some bosses, busted builds, the last boss second phase is just not fun).
The atmosphere and level design is doing so much of the heavy lifting for me, they are at the top of their game in that regard at least.
A trial is a good move, the game can be polarising due to some interesting design choices so this is a great idea
(Especially after the update just dropped)
I agree with helldivers guy though not everything is for everyone(the irony isn’t escaping me that hd2 bench the knee because of steam reviews but whatever)
But in the same breath they have to accept that some people will buy their game and hate it and review it poorly because they find it frustrating (frustrating as it may be for souls fans you can’t expect people that are annoyed by the game to just to shut up, so your favourite game can get even more praise, that also entitlement guys it works both ways 😂😂😂)
All the devs have to do is stick to their vision and accept that it will be review decisively.
I am 50/50 on their games
Some I like and some I hate, as I’m in it for the level design and atmospheres primarily.
I think the bosses and enemies are the weakest part for different reasons
The field enemies for the most part range from very stupid ai to a decent challenge.
And the boss designs are usually good but the controls in all fs game aside from maybe sekiro are the drawback that i fight with every single time, all I wish (which they will never do) is have a more responsive dodge not that half a second input delay that’s literally the only reason these games are “hard” to me and that is more frustrating that anything.
In older souls where the enemies are slower it’s okay but Elden is rough 😂😂😂
I know others don’t find it an issue but daaaamn I hate it
That’s why FS games are the masters at level design but poop at combat (to me)

Re: Gamers Still Pick Consoles for Exclusives, New Data Finds
Well yeah, also each console kind of has a genre identity I like story driven games and jrpgs so PlayStation has been my home for a while (even though jrpgs are everywhere now but that my base, big jrpgs will usually always be on a Sony console and usually first)

Why have 10 artists when now you only need 1.
Will the economy be fine? Yes.
will this generate new and different jobs? Yes.
will people lose their jobs? Yes
You are right it will open doors but that is not what they fear, their fear is the specific door that is closed(or harder to open)
Creative door.
And it affects waaaaaaay more discipline all at once, actors, writers, artists etc.
And the job that it will introduce are far less appealing to a creative (it really gets the creative juices flowing being in a team of two fixing a generated content).
Out of interest what job do you do?

Not sold on it yet, the art style of the characters in particular look odd.
They all look really smooth.

So glad I’m not in the H2 community, I’d hate to work on the game also.
But this is what happens when you give in to their demands (which was the dumb reason to review bomb in the first place) give them an inch they take a mile.
Now if you do any little thing they don’t like they know how to get what they want.

@Carck
The fact that you overly simplified what I said ( I was giving EXAMPLES to anime in general MHA for example and I was trying to give understanding between people in the comment section… tall order I know) proves that you are being overly defensive and are missing my point.
Feel free to read my earlier message again in your own time.
I won’t reply to you after this don’t worry 😂
(Also who said I see every generic anime character and see little girls?! It’s the ones they purposely design to have a more child appearance which was my whole point which you chose to miss…Did you not read my comment right? Seriously read it again)
Re: Boba, Bare Feet, and Bins Headline Honkai: Star Rail's Big PS5 Update
@Carck
Okay let’s be real here, you can like something without defending everything, there is a very obvious visual choice made.
they draw younger characters in certain ways (Height being one of them).
Stating characters are voiced by adults is a terrible come back, children cartoon characters are voiced by (mostly female)adults too (probably Tara strong 😂), but in cases like this they make them sound super young it’s odd.
And also let’s not get it twisted, anime has a weird side when it comes to depiction of characters.
Like having child like proportioned characters being 1000 years old couch fire emblem is an example.
OR being over sexualised and they are still High school
Again like what you like but this isn’t the mountain to take the high ground on haha
Re: Talking Point: What's Your PS5 Game of the Year for 2024 So Far?
@DarianStarfrog
Respectfully disagree, I dont thinks it’s bad by any means but I definitely don’t think it’s anything mind blowing it doesn’t even feel remotely “original”
It does make me wonder in an alternate reality would it be as hyped if it starring a “blander” character design with only one less form fitting outfit (no judgement really, but I do wonder as people try and side step that’s a massive part of the appeal)
Re: Talking Point: What's Your PS5 Game of the Year for 2024 So Far?
Two Stella blade nods, I wonder why 😂😂😂
For me it’s rebirth so far no question, shocked a bit none of the staff picked it.
We clearly do not share the same taste in games because I found HD2 boring and repetitive (I know all games are, before anyone come at me with that I mean I was conscious I was doing the same thing over and over because the presentation and game itself wasn’t immersing me)😂😂😂
And Stella blade was basically just fun combat and eye candy (decent music though)

Re: Elden Ring's Difficulty Destroyed By New Shield Weapons, as Players Call Them 'Absolutely Busted'
This game is balanced so oddly, from bosses to weapons it’s all over the place it’s laughable (cough perfume art if war) 😂😂
The main reason I can’t give it higher than 8.5 so many busted things around it’s combat that are not satisfying(crazy cameras on some bosses, busted builds, the last boss second phase is just not fun).
The atmosphere and level design is doing so much of the heavy lifting for me, they are at the top of their game in that regard at least.

True but SS was a full 70 pound game not 35
So a bit different, the barrier to entry is much lower
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Gets a Free Trial for a Limited Time on PS5
A trial is a good move, the game can be polarising due to some interesting design choices so this is a great idea
(Especially after the update just dropped)

Re: Helldivers 2 Director Defends Elden Ring Difficulty: 'Always Cater to a Select Audience'
I agree with helldivers guy though not everything is for everyone(the irony isn’t escaping me that hd2 bench the knee because of steam reviews but whatever)
But in the same breath they have to accept that some people will buy their game and hate it and review it poorly because they find it frustrating (frustrating as it may be for souls fans you can’t expect people that are annoyed by the game to just to shut up, so your favourite game can get even more praise, that also entitlement guys it works both ways 😂😂😂)
All the devs have to do is stick to their vision and accept that it will be review decisively.
Re: Helldivers 2 Director Defends Elden Ring Difficulty: 'Always Cater to a Select Audience'
@Korgon
I am 50/50 on their games
Some I like and some I hate, as I’m in it for the level design and atmospheres primarily.
I think the bosses and enemies are the weakest part for different reasons
The field enemies for the most part range from very stupid ai to a decent challenge.
And the boss designs are usually good but the controls in all fs game aside from maybe sekiro are the drawback that i fight with every single time, all I wish (which they will never do) is have a more responsive dodge not that half a second input delay that’s literally the only reason these games are “hard” to me and that is more frustrating that anything.
In older souls where the enemies are slower it’s okay but Elden is rough 😂😂😂
I know others don’t find it an issue but daaaamn I hate it
That’s why FS games are the masters at level design but poop at combat (to me)
