@Bharrell1013 @DanielRPK Grief is the backdrop, not the theme. The game is about mutual transformation. Kratos teaches Atreus to be a warrior and a god, Atreus teaches Kratos to be human again. Faye’s death is the catalyst for that journey, not the point of it.

So incredibly disappointed and heartbroken that the #Oscars and AMPAS chose not to include my father, David Keighley, and his immeasurable contributions to IMAX and cinema in the In Memoriam segment in the broadcast.

I will never forget.

@CzechDissOut98 @MichalKvasnica Souhlasím s tím, že se to tam dneska nabízelo a měl to zakončit, ale to s tou neskutečnou střelou z dálky moc nesouzním😃.

@Yes564647442125 @AndreBelluzzo @SynthPotato @grok No, what they said was that the demo was running at 60 FPS with ray tracing. They never said the full game would run like that. That was never promised.

Bloomberg published a new report on Naughty Dog and Intergalactic The Heretic Prophet.

- Naughty Dog staff were ordered mandatory overtime to complete a demo for Intergalactic from October until now.

- The demo was requested for review by Sony management.

- The overtime was put into place due to missing several deadlines.

- Intergalactic is targeting a release of mid 2027 internally and some staff are worried crunch may get a lot worse as they get closer if it's this bad now.

This AI hysteria is the same as when people were smashing steam engines in the 19th century. @LarAtLarian said they were doing something that absolutely everyone else is doing and got an insanely crazy shitstorm.

I've even seen someone accuse us of using AI in KCD2. I don't know anything about it, except that I used Topaz Labs to upscale some of the AI elements from KCD1 and some of the old low res textures.

I'm no fan of AI generated art, but anyway, it's time to face reality. AI is here to stay with us. As frightening as it may be, that's the way it is.

Personally, it scares me the most in the music because you can't even recognise AI there anymore.

On the other hand, you know what I hate most about making games? The fact that it takes 7 years and 300 people and tens of millions of dollars to make. And the fact that Tom had to spend 500 hours in the studio recording completely generic heckling and generic bars.

If AI can help me make an epic game in a year with a smaller team like in the old days, I'm all for it. That game will still have an art director, writers, programmers, graphic designers, but they won't have to do the tiresome and boring tasks, they'll have to focus on the essentials.

I have ideas for lots of games, but I'm fifty years old and so far it's taken me seven years on average to make one game. If AI helps me realize those ideas faster, I'm all for it.

As for the RPG and the actors. Wouldn't it be nice if you could ask ANYONE ANYTHING in an RPG? Like, maybe someone for the road directions? Or what they think of their neighbors? We already have tools (11labs can do it) where you script a NPC, their character, their knowledge and opinions and then they talk to you about anything. For non-story stuff, this is an absolutely revolutionary development from a player's point of view. And you can't record it with an actor because it has INFINITE variations. But what you can record are cutscenes and story dialogue. You dont need an Oscar level performance when ordering a sausage in a pub or when asking how to get to the castle.

Programmers have a problem. The work of most of them will probably not be needed very soon. We will have software architects, and AI will do the programming. Very soon. Resisting this is probably as meaningful as resisting the use of sewing machines in the textile industry. Or going back to riding on horses while we could use planes and cars. How many horse breeders lost their jobs thanks to Henry Ford!?

Who and how will recognize if the game was programmed by a human or AI? And who would want to spend months of work and hundreds of thousands of dollars when the same thing could be achieved in minutes for free?

The whole AI revolution may mean the demise of humanity, nobody knows now, but it may also mean that ANYONE, at a fraction of the current cost, will be able to implement virtually any grand idea. Making a game will be as easy as writing a book. There will be more games. We'll see the return of niche genres. Some games will be better. Maybe just a few. There will be also lot of trash. But who cares? There is lots of average trash in books or music for years :)

It will also be an end of most big publishers. And Hollywood as we know it. Nobody will need their money and resources anymore. What we saw with boom of indie scene thanks to Steam, we will see with AAA games thanks to AI.

Or Skynet will destroy us before all that.

Either way, there's no stopping it.

I used AI to translate this text from my native language :)

Let the shitstorm begin! :)
