The fall of the roman empire. I think the idea of a bunch of warring states fighting over what they can carve of the crumbling frontiers, taking tributes from rome for temporary peace or even war with eachother, and seeing the last gasps as the south of italy depopulates would be a crazy good setting. Hopefully they dont take the easy way out and make (you) play as the decadent romans

AI is currently costing more money to run than it makes.
Microsoft copilot for git-hub for insistence is 19$ a month but its estimated it costs Microsoft 30$ a month per user.
The more processing power you give to AI the harder it hallucinates (Makes shit up). So more money we dump in to it the worse it gets somehow.
Generating one 10 second video costs Sora AI 5$ and it usually takes 10 videos generated to get like one actually good one.
GPUs in data centers will need to be replaced evry 3-4 years. Meaning its not a long term money investment.
The AI bubble will pop. Only actually useful AI that will remain is AI meant to make boring or tedious tasks more efficient and Upscalers for graphics.
As these are literally the only instances of useful AI.
Most companies are already begging workers to come back over how bad AI currently is.

Only people who still think AI is the future is CEOs coping and Pajets who believe they will get good jobs because they know how to write prompts.
And retards who dont value the human element of art.
Most likely when the bubble bursts they will just take the money from the US people using taxes and other funds to bal out the corporations that wasted billions.

I do admit thou AI makes some rely fucking good furry porn thou.

This is a trvth nvke.
Trillions of dollars are going to be flushed because people are so stupid that they think serial liar chatbots are some kind of infallible digital gods.

Its mediocre at coding and can't be used for anything serious because without actual technical skill whatever it makes is too vulnerable to attackers. It can't do customer service properly because it hallucinates like fuck and gives out fake discounts and more. It can't do legal stuff because it keeps derailing legal cases by literally making up events, cases and laws that never fucking happened. Funnily enough despite how shitty AI art looks most of the time its better at art and music than just about anything else since in most cases a bad picture won't tear apart your company.

Will ChatGPT at least still exist or just the general thing that shits out information for your or analyzes stuff?

It did actually help me at times when it came to putting some thoughts I had together surrounding history and just refining dialogue and ideas for some stories I'm writing... not as in, actually copy pasting from it, but just checking some stuff like whether anything could be improved or worked on in some way, taking it what it says, then usually considering something or just dismissing it the moment it seemed to deviate way too much into trying to make it sound like weird and, poetic sounding sl00pe you would see in those mass produced garbage.

If you want something that was inspired by that, check out Tactics Ogre if you haven't already. It's in a medieval setting but still pretty focused on the ethnic tensions.

The Byzantine Empire's intricate mosaics of Orthodox intrigue, imperial schisms, and defensive warfare against Arab and Slavic incursions offer untapped potential for narrative-driven strategy games that blend political maneuvering with visceral sieges, far beyond the cursory nods in titles like Assassin's Creed. Similarly, the Mali Empire's golden age under Mansa Musa, with its trans-Saharan trade networks, architectural marvels like the Great Mosque of Djenné, and scholarly hubs in Timbuktu, could inspire exploration-focused RPGs emphasizing economic empire-building and cultural diplomacy in sub-Saharan Africa's vibrant medieval landscape. The Khmer Empire's hydraulic engineering feats, temple complexes such as Angkor Wat, and cyclical conflicts with neighboring Thai kingdoms deserve more representation in open-world adventures that highlight Southeast Asian monsoon warfare and divine kingship, providing fresh alternatives to the overreliance on European or East Asian historical backdrops.

I get too schizophrenic regarding historical wars and not agreeing with historians on anything that happened within the 20th century. That being said I would like to see more Vietnam war games. It's an interesting setting regardless. It's just getting the Oliver Stone sort of interpretation of things is what I loathe. I can be entertained by something but can strongly disagree with its portrayal of events. I mean I believe Hollywoods portrayal of that war in general isn't far off NVA propaganda itself.

I want a game with realistic pike block tactics. First person, you have a spear and a shield and you and your crew go up against enemy pikemen. Dodge arrows, deal with cavalry, prevent getting flanked, find openings and stab your way to victory. Realistic injury mechanics so you die or get crippled easily and you can take over friendly units.
