Just think about how you can tell if a game is made in Unity or Unreal. Think about how you can feel the Source engine game movement and physics. This is all game programming, and treating it like just throwaway code is making games more bland and boring.

It's fine, IMO. There are many many interesting directions in which the limit can be pushed *other* than graphical fidelity. The writing has been on the wall for a while now!
This. Shit. Sucks. We're gong to enter an age where games stall, not due to lack of push from developers or consoles, but simply due to upgrade and hardware costs. You cannot push gaming limits when 90% of your market doesn't have the hardware to run the games. When will it revert to normal? Who knows. 3-5 years?

Btw, games have been "stalling" in these other directions for at least a console generation, possibly multiple.

Here's MGS2 doing dynamic foot placement 25 years ago on a console with 32MB of RAM, ~300MHz CPU, and a fraction of the budget. I don't care to bash on anyone, but let's keep the record straight, this is not a feature that bloats the budget or causes perf issues.

Based and completely correct take by Sander. This is how you get good.

This, but unironically. You should disable as many features as you can bear. It will sharpen your mind, and force you to keep a more complete picture of your code, which leads you to make better architectural decisions.

LLM's are popular because many programmers don't have any confidence in their own abilities. They are always looking for ways to offload their responsibilities, which of-course makes them less skilled over time and sustains the cycle of incompetence.

What I like about not using LLM-based tools is writing code is so tedious you are looking for solutions to write less code or no code at all and you usually find them. Which improves your project dramatically in a longer run.

Incredible how gaming on Linux have evolved in the last 10 years. From having to figure out exact Wine toggles to it being out of the box with Proton. We take a lot of it for granted, but honestly huge thanks to everybody involved with Wine, and thanks to Valve of course, for supporting and directly bankrolling a lot of it!

Ctrl+C just never works consistently anymore. I just realized that I now default to pressing the combo multiple times, and still don't trust that it'll actually work.
