@AbbyAZK id assume the marvel ip is why so many people give the games a try to begin with, then its the game itself combined with the ip that keep people around
i think without the marvel ip they probably wouldn't have gotten as big of an initial boost/exposure, which means lower players
@a2_incognita@Zythe9876@WagaDraws@PZOGame the question is what are you really paying for with a vibecoded project? how can you reliably know how much is human-made/ai? its hard to follow one's personal morals/tolerance on it when its so difficult to tell where the line is drawn, so its easier to avoid entirely
@a2_incognita@Zythe9876@WagaDraws@PZOGame im sure theres more to it than just a single prompt or whatever, but its hard to trust/know how much of it is human-effort vs generated no? either way some people just dont wanna use something if ai was used like, at all, even more so if it's a thing you gotta pay to use
@Zythe9876@WagaDraws@PZOGame i think its more so the idea of paying for something that nobody actually made, you're not paying for someone's effort and hard work that resulted in a premium product, you're paying for something that a computer generated based on prompts with zero effort
@BasedPota18 i mean shit you dont even need the latest and greatest graphical tech for a game to look good, look at games like portal or the arkham games, games from 15 or so years ago that still look good today in alot of cases imo
@BasedPota18 realism is cool in concept until every game uses it and they all look the exact same and theres no style or cool factor and performance takes a hit because their super realistic graphics are poorly optimized
@TDTweets777 crazy that they're already reverting the map change, i feel like a lot of people dont play much before the new season, would've been sick to see it stick around in some way
@PhelleAlt theres something unnerving knowing that this is the starting line for this and its already capable of so much, so many posts about astra have me going "oh sure i guess it can just do that now then" its freaky
@cejetvole conceptually its the sickest thing ever, but in reality it has no cool or fun factor because like, no one made this, its cool yea but feels so meaningless to me because it only exists because someone threw money at some new ai tool because sure i guess it can just do that now
@kaiscomics the black parts are just kind of there for the sake of being there and looking idk, overly realistic or techy? it makes the suit overdesigned, which is why the bnd suit is so beloved, its simplistic and classic
@iSherpool All of the skins now are just gooner bait or another boring swimsuit summer skin that is also gooner bait, like its Marvel, how are we not taking advantage of the hype decades of comic and movie material for skins and leaning into the coolness of superheroes
