- Comment on Stop Killing Games' proposals would make online-only games "prohibitively expensive to create", argue EU lobby group 1 day ago:
Aren’t they only being asked to open source the servers at the end of a a game’s life?
- Comment on 11 Bit confirm that they used generative AI for The Alters "in a very limited manner" 1 week ago:
I don’t really care that much. I’m quite happy for AI to be used to create more content in my games wherever it’s appropriate. If a company can use AI to create all the mundane background content that nobody really wants to make then who cares? It doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re going to fire people, it might just be the same people making more content.
- Comment on We are not the same 1 week ago:
Who’s ask Grok?
- Comment on Mario Kart World Faces Massive Backlash After Update, Online Racing Experience Ruined 1 week ago:
It’s not even clear what changed.
- Comment on The end of Stop Killing Games [Accursed Farms] 2 weeks ago:
I get the sentiment but there’s probably bigger things that we should be campaigning for than saving NFS: The Crew.
- Comment on It's a good thing they don't actually think lol 3 weeks ago:
Are we anywhere near being able to run this in a car? I want to hooky it up to loads of stuff in my car and have a computer control it like Star Trek.
- Comment on Nexus Mods Sale Sparks Concern in Modding Community 3 weeks ago:
I’ll probably keep using it and see what happens. To be honest I’ll just go where the content is, and if the new people fuck it up it’ll likely go elsewhere.
- Comment on The Telegraph has deleted the seemingly made-up article 1 month ago:
I actually know a couple of teachers at private schools and they say the people being hit hardest aren’t the rich twats but the families who scrimp and save just enough to try and give their kids the best opportunities.
- Comment on Durability of children 1 month ago:
My daughter’s #2. She’s also trying to do ballet in a pink dress right now.
- Comment on Grieve with me 1 month ago:
I tried this and had limited success. Then I just got a wireless charger and it’s fine now.
- Comment on Netflix puts AI ads in paid tier: pirate EVERYTHING at this point... 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️ 14:55 1 month ago:
I like how they say that viewers pay as much attention to the adverts as they do to the content.
- Comment on 89 million Steam account details just got leaked, so now's a good time to change your password 1 month ago:
89 million accounts with creds don’t get sold for $5,000. It’s probably just email addresses.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I’m not against some political stuff but there’s so much circlejerk opinion pieces that get posted. It’s just a bunch of people posting stuff that confirms their own beliefs, which is not better than what happens on the likes of Xitter. It’s just a different kind of echo chamber but people are okay with it because it’s left rather than right.
- Comment on Day 297 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing 1 month ago:
I didn’t want to say this but I can’t help myself.
It’s addictive, not addicting.
- Comment on Half-Life 3 is reportedly playable in its entirety and could be announced this year 2 months ago:
That’s the source code leak. The leaked announcement came from the magazine.
- Comment on Half-Life 3 is reportedly playable in its entirety and could be announced this year 2 months ago:
It’s hard not to get excited remembering how we found out about Half-Life 2. It was announced in a magazine that some random guy accidentally got sent a copy of early, then he scanned the pages and leaked it online. I think I was browsing some dodgy Russian website when I found out about it.
- Comment on Rian Johnson Says ‘I Don’t’ Agree With Netflix CEO Over Movie Theater Model Being ‘Outdated’: I Want ‘Knives Out 3’ in ‘Many Theaters For as Long as Possible’ 2 months ago:
Films used to be such a big deal, now I just watch a brand new one every night. Pre-internet is just end up watching the same films over and over just because I had a copy. Going to the cinema to watch a new one was exciting but now I don’t care.
- Comment on Day 289 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing 2 months ago:
Is everyone posting about Oblivion simply new to it? Seems weird to me that everyone’s so excited about it but it’s probably just because I played it to death the last time it came round.
- Comment on Google is excited about money! 2 months ago:
I think we’re moaning over nothing again here.
- Comment on Nintendo confirms $90 price for full Breath of the Wild experience on Switch 2 2 months ago:
I’m not as against this as everyone else. If you want a AAA game without microtransactions, in-game advertising, and all the other byllshit you get nowadays you’re gonna have to expect the company will want to make that money up in other places. Games have been like £50/$60 since I was a kid and we’ve been lucky that the prices haven’t risen with inflation.
- Comment on Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2? 2 months ago:
Imagine if you could go on the Nintendo store and buy a game you couldn’t even run, or had to check a third party website to see if it ran acceptably and let you use all the buttons.
- Comment on Don't know if the right place but is there a TOMT Tip of My Tongue community? or a big ask lemmy community? or an AMA community? 3 months ago:
To be fair, I struggle with the search function. I don’t find the UI on the website very intuitive and I feel it misses things. I don’t trust it.
- Comment on Following the nightmare footage of AI-loy, Horizon actor Ashly Burch shares her stance on the whole debacle 3 months ago:
Honest question. Why does the whole internet seem to be coalescing around the relatively small number if artists who might lose work over AI when there’s probably millions of people, if not more, who stand to lose their jobs in other sectors? AI powered voices could add a lot to a game, it could be great having completely dynamic speech.
- Comment on What can I actually do with 64 GB or RAM? 4 months ago:
I just hit 230 on my phone.
- Comment on Sounds like a problem for them, not me. 4 months ago:
A couple of months ago my manager pulled me aside and very nicely told me off for not taking me annual leave. She said she wanted to see it all used before it reset.
- Comment on Sounds like a problem for them, not me. 4 months ago:
Is this a normal thing in the US? I live in the UK and I don’t think I’ve ever had a vacation request denied in my whole life, even when I submit them with less than two weeks notice.
- Comment on Dell is making everyone return to office, too 5 months ago:
I don’t know why people don’t want to work in the office. I spent a week working from home and it felt like a prison.
- Comment on James Cameron on 'Avatar 3' Potentially Sparking Fan Backlash 5 months ago:
Avatar 2 was like a 50 minute movie and 2 hours of swimming.
- Comment on GTA VI Might Inspire Other AAA Developers to Price Their Games at $100 5 months ago:
I have paid full price for a game in 10 years. GTA6 will be late to the PX party anyway. Looks like I won’t be playing it until 2035.
- Comment on EA will shut down the Origin app on April 2025 — company asks users to migrate to the new EA app 5 months ago:
It’s not clear, am I going to lose games if I don’t do this?
