So genAI in development confirmed?

@Theamazing1 you're very welcome!

@Theamazing1 (#12)

Games made by real people!

Too bad it comes with AI-voice-slop mimicking humans.

Buy physical for more value ❤️

@Gbarsotini (#33) I will abandon new releases, then. I have a collection of games that could last for the rest of my life. If that's what the industry "needs" moving "forward" (read: fill CEO pockets) then I'm out. As of today I won't even consider buying a PS6 when available. That's my statement to all the genAI devs.

@Gbarsotini (#30) this is comparing apples with Apple NTFs: It's not about how the art is created. It's about that the tools that it's made with are stolen.

To say it's "necessary" and "inevitable" is pure commodity fetishism. Thanks for the heads up to never buy Level-5 ever. This is what willtrigger the next video game crash because the market will be even more greatly oversaturated with games that none of them will have the chance to break even. All folks looking forward to more simple consumerism of genAI-slop:
Enjoy! 🫶

Why is there even a game nominated that used genAI in it's creation?

@dskatter (#4) enjoy!

The shabbiest nostalgia bait ever. Whoever made up that price is enormously out of their minds.

@Czar_Khastik have a wonderful christmas time, mate! ❤️💋

@Can-You-Believe-Sith (#34) "Good riddance!"

@KundaliniRising333 (#12) 😂😂😂

Looking forward to Code Violet with fingers crossed regarding the quality 🤞
Merry Christmas, folks!

@Artois2 @Bracing_space (#31 & #32) these as well 💯!

@PuppetMaster (#27) this, 💯!

@RoomWithaMoose (#20) it's about them lying in their application form itfp. Awards suck azz, but the IGA are entitled to do what they did.

@Logonogo (#16) This does not apply to you, obviously, but have you seen the amount of people that defend corporations online for simply having made their "favourite thing"? They give out a carte blanche to them, whatever the accusation may be (e.g. Rockstar Games: crunch, unpaid overtime, union busting, racism and sexism in the office structure).
Worse yet is when they don't care.

The right thing to do. As ever, there will be people watching their releases under a microscope to verify their claim. All the AI friends on the web should remember that not a single company in existence is your "friend". Whether they produced your favourite consumer good or not.
I will not ever play Clair Obscur because of this. Maybe their next title, but definitely not on day one. Obviously.

@PuppetMaster (#111) Exactly this. But at least they can be at home more often playing the slop games lol

Too bad it's made with genAI, otherwise I would be interested in it.

@GraniteFraggle (#91) this, times 1.000.000.000.000!

@Runex2121 (#98) that's an astonishingly low bar.

@PuppetMaster (#60) exactly that is my underlying issue with this. I am so firm with that opinion that I won't ever buy a single product that ha genAI used in it's development, if known.

@PuppetMaster These bullshi¡t awards only makes the exec board give out more money for any further games. It's an industry thing gamers should not even care about. Fukk Sandfall for lying itfp and now trying to spin the narrative. F Swen Wincke as well, I might add.

@kyleforrester87 (#49) I wish you that you must never ever are one of those disgruntled workers. You would be devastated. You're a worker nonetheless, whether you like the fact or not!

@Drago201 (#24) it's about generative AI, the one that creates visible things in video games. That's what the general problem is, and you know it. People keep jacking off to these pointless awards and unleash fury when their favourite games don't get these. Maybe you too, which is why you presumably distort the argument.

@dskatter (#46) certainly not, but they use it to exploit workers even more to hoard bigger riches for themselves. Enjoy your slop!

@SterlingEyes (#16) good, I will spend my time on the backlog, then! 🫶

@dskatter Seems like you're a fan of billionaires!

Good luck trying to wind yourself out of this one, Swenni. The amount of people willing to pay for slopgames is sad, tho!
Money talks, and my money will go where cultural value is made. That isn't in the efficiency department.

The old meat grinder hamster wheel turns round and round and round. I'm so fed up with the AAA gaming industry. Naughty Dog can keep their game.

@wilky2988 (#70) Beware: Companies are not your friends.

@Burnish1619 (#77) biggest pro-capitalism and contra-working-people statement today. What a load of rubbish

I'm looking forward to what the game will become and if he stays true to his word. I also leave it to the tech afficionados and the YouTube creators to pick apart what's AI and what's not.

What the interview DID do is garner attention to Larian and Divinity in general. Every publicity is good publicity. Applause to the marketing team, Schreier and Wincke.

I hope they won't bite off more than they can chew. These delusions of grandeur backfired immensely in the past.

@elvisfan1 (#13) whatever floats your pompadour, king.

@RainbowGazelle (#37) I switched off the notification for them and it's pure serenity.

@RZ-Atom (#46) Exactly. I think it's engagement farming by the authors. Such non-news.

Why is this even news? Who tf cares that much about this pointless external validation that much? A platinum here and there with current titles? Okay. But ancient games without them?
LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE!

I wonder if they're AI-made.

If it's unions you hit, about your game I won't give a s***.

Too bad it won't get a fully playable disc version.

@Gremio108 (#35) Unacceptable!!!

@Fiendish-Beaver (#4) my sincerest condolences, friend.
