NEW VIDEO!
In 2020, Half-Life: Alyx blew me away, but it was also reminding me of a strange Jurassic Park game few people know about, and even fewer have played.

@rafcolantonio During COVID times I got through all of Dishonored 1, 2, and all DLC, and I even went back to check out Arx Fatalis.
A lot of Arkane games are timeless.

@sparkie237 I'm a Halo fan who's only played Reach, CE, 2, ODST and 3 (in that exact order) and nothing else.

Do I count?

@PurpleColonelSP What I mean is that it sounds like something so early that it's less "HL1 development" and more "learning your toolset".

[Mauro Merconchini @Defenestrum]

@PurpleColonelSP Quake 2 came out in 97, if this happened "while they were working on it" it might have even been in 96. It sounds like the Valve crew was just experimenting with what they could do with the fancy they had just licensed, and they sent over a test build/map to id.

@sparkie237 I have absolutely ZERO context for why this exists
but man I'm happy it does :)

[Mauro Merconchini @Defenestrum]

@sparkie237 Excellent progress

[Mauro Merconchini @Defenestrum]

@KanesTheName Oh that's a great composition. Go back in time and stop your former self from moving it! 😭

@Tantacrul Thanks for everything you've done, Martin. The open source creative tool space is forever better because of you and your team's contributions.

I look forward to your announcement of becoming head of product at Adobe

The creator of ChatGPT is named "Altman," as in "alternative to human" and he leads OpenAI, which is completely closed.

His main opponent is the company Anthropic, meaning "human-centered" is led by "Amodei," as in "loves gods".

Then there's "Gemini," meaning "two-faced," from a company that said that it will do no evil.

Brilliant work as always Kojima!

He wasn’t wrong, just early

I'm back from Brussels. No decision yet from the EU Commission, it reminds of job hiring with multiple rounds of interviews. There was a press conference also, it was more an intro to the issue and people involved, the substantive stuff is still ongoing.
