heartbreaking: you discovered a really cool indie project too early in development and now will have to wait years for it to come out

Visual novels are a fantastic medium to work in, and I don't think Slay the Princess or Scarlet Hollow would hit the same if they were anything else. We hope our work inspires others to make their own VNs, and to play great games they otherwise might not have ever picked up!

More and more people—in tech companies, consultancies, regulators, universities, among others—are saying this and proving it to be true: AI does very bad work and creates more labor for humans. crikey.com.au/2024/09/03/ai-…

“When the AI provided an incorrect result, researchers found inexperienced and moderately experienced radiologists dropped their cancer-detecting accuracy from around 80% to about 22%. Very experienced radiologists’ accuracy dropped from nearly 80% to 45%.”😮

This is how you know that the "AI" bubble is 100% a scam and is gonna crash
Peter Molyneux reckons AI will "be a real game changer" in the future of games, and it'll "allow anyone" to make an entire title with a single prompt vg247.com/peter-molyneux-rec…

The takeaway from all of this is: people hate creative people so much that they'd rather destroy life on earth than pay them to make things

That's because I've been fighting this battle, mainly against religiously-motivated censors, for a long, long, very long time. The methods change, but the agenda is always the same: to kill ideas any ideas they don't like or agree with.

Please for the love of god business majors need to stop pushing games as a service business models on game devs. There are only a handful of those that ever work and you think you will be one, the profane ego on you

there need to be more scenes in scifi where characters try to look up plot-critical information on a chatbot and it gives them confidently wrong information that leads to them wasting 45 minutes of screen time
The weirdest thing about reading scifi in 2024 is that even relatively recent work like the 3 body problem series fails to account for the incredible progress in AI that we have already today, and starts to feel anachronistic.

People are whining that this isn't game news... Dude, thousands of Brazilian game devs, artists, journos and critics are about to be blocked out of a major global platform. All because a spoiled billionaire bought it to promote the far right and thinks he's above the law.
The judge Elon Musk bizarrely called 'Brazil's Darth Vader' gives Twitter 24 hours to comply with court order or get shut down by the full power of his legal battle station. trib.al/8WPeua6

Sony shut down Japan Studio, who made like 90% of their most recognizable franchises, and this was supposed to be their first big show of what they can do without them. Nearly a decade of dev time and millions of dollars later, and it's boring and ugly. No shit we're gonna laugh.
The eagerness to grave dance on unpopular games has become a bad habit: trib.al/e9mdETH

The fact that twitter/X is being banned in Brazil because Mü$k pushed fake news and misinfo to the top of Brazilians feeds to pretend that elections in the country were fraudulent should also be included in these headlines.
JUST IN - Brazil's Supreme Court orders X to be banned nationwide.

store.steampowered.com/app/1… - Has a slew of options, both for who your character is as a person, and who you can romance (if you want to). The game's a total gut-punch to the heart too, which I personally loved.

store.steampowered.com/app/6… - lets you romance any of the human characters, but also has non-romantic options and a cat for people who aren't interested in smooching their swords.

Seeing as this post has become a runaway train, I'm gonna share some games with legitimately great romance options and/or representation. Starting with Haven: store.steampowered.com/app/9… They actually updated the game with gender options after launch, just to be inclusive.
