- Comment on Oracle wants to bill you for every AI task, not just every seat 1 week ago:
I want a working society. That requires taxes.
Only a brain dead libertarian would be against taxes just because they are are taxes.
- Comment on Oracle wants to bill you for every AI task, not just every seat 1 week ago:
lol bill me for something I don’t even want.
- Comment on 220,000-signatory petition to "save Mass Effect" doesn't mention BioWare, suggests giving Mass Effect 5 to somebody else 2 weeks ago:
Rockstar has had some very good writing since GTA4. They don’t have the baggage of customers seeing their quality drop with each new release for 20 years like BioWare did.
It’s almost as if Rockstar and BioWare have been in opposite trajectories for those 20 years.
- Comment on 220,000-signatory petition to "save Mass Effect" doesn't mention BioWare, suggests giving Mass Effect 5 to somebody else 2 weeks ago:
lol you’re comparing GTA to mass effect. One is a cultural event while the other is having online petitions to have someone, anyone work on it.
When was the last time that Biowate was a market leading developer?
- Comment on 220,000-signatory petition to "save Mass Effect" doesn't mention BioWare, suggests giving Mass Effect 5 to somebody else 2 weeks ago:
Even with 10,000,000 signatures and 5,000,000 paid pre-orders there’s less than a 5% chance it’ll be good.
Quality art comes from inspiration. You cannot buy inspiration.
- Comment on Paralives' first major update slips to next year, but when it comes you can expect some pretty meaty improvements for all of its main features 2 weeks ago:
You don’t have to.
- Comment on People are vibe coding their way to better TVs 2 weeks ago:
Can ballistic missiles also find me a good pozole recipe without having to view 100 horrendous difficult to follow websites or even worse apps?
- Comment on People are vibe coding their way to better TVs 2 weeks ago:
AI is just a tool. A tool is only bad in how it is used.
AI companies like trying to pretend that it’s the solution to everything and that it is true intelligence. It is not.
AI companies absolutely did massive copyright infringement in building their models and the people involved should face the same penalties that a pirate business would.
- Comment on Solo developer rebuilds Adobe Creative Suite in Rust using Claude, releases it free to all — targets 100% parity in one month despite piracy claims and safety warnings 4 weeks ago:
I would rather have a Windows 11 copy without all the built in spyware and bloat hogging up performance, RAM and storage.
- Comment on Amazon kills Alexa’s ability to control Echo speakers' AUX input 4 weeks ago:
Why kill the ability? I thought Alexa’s AI could have no problem dealing with it.
- Comment on Hideo Kojima doesn't know if Physint will be released on PS5, and he hasn't decided if it's going to use Sony's Decima game engine 1 month ago:
Using the engine will give Sony money. That’s like paying your old boss after they fired you.
I would think that this would help morale at the studio.
- Comment on "I thought people would leave": Hideo Kojima offers his account of Physint's switch from PlayStation to Xbox, as his studio insist they're in a "healthy, profitable state" 1 month ago:
MBA don’t care about profits. They care about more profits than last year every year.
- Comment on [Opinion] If Hideo Kojima Games Aren't Safe, No Games Are Safe - Aftermath (Luke Plunkett) 1 month ago:
It’s crazy that he likes expensive actors in his games because all they do is spout endless mumbo jumbo that barely has anything to do with anything. I’m sure he would save a lot of money using less expensive actors to say exhausting amounts of nonsense.
Gameplay in his games is usually good and unique which means I’m a huge fan.
- Comment on Rockstar had a mole in the union worker Discord server "for over two and a half years", GTA 6 company reveals during legal battle 1 month ago:
Who was the mole?
His/her name should be well known in the industry so that no workers would ever trust that person in their friend group.
- Comment on Angry PlayStation Fans Propose PS5 Blackout in Protest of Sony's Disc Decision 3 months ago:
Cancelled PSN. I will only buy preowned disk games for the console.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
You’re referring to robots that do not exist and therefore have not been designed or have been found to have a use for. Kind of hard to have a business that is supposed to sell a product it does not design, own or exist.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
Robots already exist. They’re used in manufacturing worldwide. Tesla doesn’t sell any to anyone. They are not even competing.
- Comment on Chinese memory ban would cut off RAMpocalypse relief 3 months ago:
Just another way the Trump administration will be making America much less competitive worldwide.
- Comment on 4 months ago:
Sony wants to use old single player games as rentals tied to the PS online account. Can’t force people to pay for PS Plus if their game collection is on disk.
- Comment on Rumor: XBOX Is Making Their Own Destiny Like MMO, But With Halo 4 months ago:
It is hard when the talent is long gone.
The only ones left are yes-men and people that lost interest long ago.
- Comment on Former Dragon Age lead says product placements could help combat "overreliance on microtransactions" and I agree because every game should make you pick a watch colour 5 months ago:
Former Dragon Age developer seems to be a common job title. Maybe there’s a reason for that.
- Comment on Sony to no longer bring PlayStation narrative single-player games to PC 5 months ago:
They were just getting people primed for future live service games. Did Sony port game franchises that didn’t have some lsg in production?
- Comment on Sony to no longer bring PlayStation narrative single-player games to PC 5 months ago:
They all make money on console sales. Not a lot of money.
Higher games sales is not a win if it encourages consumers to use a non-Sony device. Sony is thinking long term viability of their platform instead of trying to make half a dozen live service games that nobody wants.
- Comment on Sony to no longer bring PlayStation narrative single-player games to PC 5 months ago:
Seems like Sony is no longer prioritizing the multi platform live service market expansion that only encourages people to buy less PlayStation consoles.
- Comment on Game Consoles Are Pricing Themselves Out of Relevance 5 months ago:
I 100% agree.
Visuals since the PS4 generation have only improved marginally unless we spend $1000-3000 on hardware.
Game developers should limit themselves to PS4 level visuals to keep costs down and to have their games run well on hardware most people can afford.
- Comment on Game Consoles Are Pricing Themselves Out of Relevance 5 months ago:
Try building a gaming PC.
The AI apocalypse coupled with the Republican tariffs and Republican Iran war are driving inflation to insane levels.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 months ago:
Trump and his family have made more money this year than they have in their entire lives. He fucked around and is cashing in because capitalists love authoritarians and fascists.
- Comment on CNN: Republicans release AI deepfake of James Talarico as phony videos proliferate in midterm races 7 months ago:
Because the government is full of corrupt people that want money.
- Comment on [TheGamer] Marathon Is Reportedly Played Primarily On PC 7 months ago:
Not for long.
- Comment on Video game romances need to evolve beyond lore dumps 8 months ago:
Seems like this person wants to play a dating simulator that simulates a real relationship.
Be the change you want in the world.
