uh oh stinky
Je suis monte
>>728953893>even the indie game awards gave a game that wasn't even indie an award.>only took it away because of muh AIwas never a serious award to begin with
>>728953974Pardon...
>>728953893Tbf, E33 isn’t indie by the dev’s own admission.People bitching about AI use are dumb since most things use AI now though.
>>728954050Yeah I love E33 but really, really didn't want it to win any Indie awards. An indie studio doesn't have subcontractors
>>728953893Nepobaby awards
>>728953893>Award and website no one knew about did something
>>728953893Not because it's obviously not an indie?
>>728954223So, neither Hades II and Dispatch are.
The fact that everyone turned against E33 and we stopped seeing E33 shilling when the new captcha arrived shows all E33 fans were asmongold losers, bots or indians LMAOOOO
>>728957170OkI didn't want Hades 2 to win anything anyway.
The woke french devs are getting COMPLETLY btfod in twitter, reddit, reset era, EVERYWHERE lmaooo the only place that still likes them is Asmongold twitch chat and r/indiagaming HAHAHAHA
>>728957430>everyone
>>728957758> It barely got any new playersOh nonono HAHAHAHAHHow the fuck KCD2 which is "woke" and you guys claim it flopped got more players than E33???? hAHAHAHAHAHAEmbarrassing. E33 shills are tearing their skin apart.
>>728958006go outside dude
>>728953893the entire game reeks of AI, other than the story
>>728958246You lost.
>>728953893FF7 BROS. WE WON.
>>728953893>it's not indie because... you used the wrong tools!!
Reminder that only 35% of the playerbase finished the game
>>728958415okay
>>728958583Asmongold told his incel army to buy it in mass.
>>728953974it's been so long...
>>728953893>ai usage>not by having a publisherwhat a joke
>>728958583i hate this ugly ass game but 35% is pretty good retention
>>728958969Checking a couple super popular games from my library (P5 and another "indie" darling Dave the Diver) both have 25% so yeah
>>728957643>two people with nothing better to do than hound dog a video game over ai>btfolol
>>728953893YES YES YES YES YES YES GOD I'M SO HAPPYGIVE THE STOLEN AWARDS TO TEAM CHERRY
>>728958583that's actually pretty impressive. for reference, only 12% of people beat skyrim's main story according to steam achievement completion rates.
>>728958583crazy thing is that it's even higher than that. It's nearly 40% which is insane for a turn-based RPG
>>728962295Out of curiousity where does Persona 5 sit at?
>>728962908lol
>>728958583Nigger, only 12% of Bloodborne players even got past the tutorial boss
>>728953893probably because it'd have won without an excuse
it should have been disqualified for not being an indie game
>>728953893kek. the publisher wasn't what got them it was being lazy.
>>728957430Lmao anti e33 posters got proven as pajeet shitskins and ubisoft shills months ago and now you browncels are trying to spin it kek
>>728953893https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUdwTPxIOhI
>>728963168except it is no matter how much you cope
>>728954223An indie studio is the most likely one to have contractors because they can't just hire people into permanent positions to do specialized work.
>>728963767Also, almost every popular indie studio has a non traditional publisher, aka not a company that owns the studio or the game made by the studio
>>728953893
>>728963220can you fuck off, spammer?
>>728953893Masaka...!! E33bros... We're sloppa now?!
Still malding I see
The indie game awards are like 10x more embarrassingly woke than even the TGA. Literally who cares what they do and don't disqualify.
>>728963220trill the haters away, king
>>728953893Never heard of the Indie Game Awards but I guess I'll never hear about them again after this either
>>728953893>insider gaming
>>728953893This is it, transistors! This is how we win! First we revoke E33's awards, then Trump is finished!
Noo!! They're my new favorite studio!! They can't do anything wrong! They literally are the humblest people in the world and walk on water!!
>>728953893Probably because only X trannies and reddit care about Indie Game Awards.And this crowd is malding the hardest about AI in video game dev.
>>728954223If hiring subcontractors means it's not indie, than Stardew Valley was never in its lifetime an indie game
>>728958583That's is crazy good, actually you troglodyte The average game completion rate is below 15%.No wonder E33 mogged so hard
>>728953893>Look at JudgesWELL WELLWELLWELLWELL
>>728953893>disqualified because of AI>not because it's not an indieMental retardation.
>>728965109Anti-AI fags = TranniesThis is indisputable.
>>728963220Based flautist.
>>728965110Indie is almost entirely meaningless these days. All those gay woke storyfag indie games are subsidized under government grants and exhorbitant "donations" from megacorps. This has been the case since the days of Fez btw so it's not entirely new
>>728965368>Sloppa is... le good now!!Fuck off
>>728960054it is a good % but comparing to Skyrim is retarded
>>728960054Nobody is playing Bethesda games for the story. I have 400 hours in Fallout 4 and no idea how the story ends. The only Bethesda games I ever finished are Morrowind and Fallout 3.
>>728965368yeah anti-ai people are just people who suck ass at their jobs. They also have jobs that don't matter at all.The same people who scoffed at workers losing jobs to robotics. They deserve it and the best part is there is nothing they can do about it because either America replaces them or China replaces them. In both cases, they get replaced.
>>728965643Find a new buzzword chimp
>>728953893disqualified for placeholders?
>>728957643>reset erano one gives a damn about that place, really, not sure why even mention it at all, irrelevant as fuck.
>>728966514I think the glaring problem is that antiAI retards think that some pervasive AI agent is going to make a game entirely on AI assets with no touching up or human element whatsoever, and as such some shit like a fucking gen AI newspaper texture slips through the cracks and now "THE WHOLE GAME WAS MADE WITH AI ITS RUINED!" they can't even verbalize what precisely it is about AI that they hate so much without someone first having to tell them that "This thing is AI and AI is bad therefore this thing is bad"
>>728958006it got more new players in one day than KCD2 did since the game awards lmao
>>728966578they're not placeholders if you ship them.
>>728953893due to AI usage? Not because it has a major publisher finding it and the fact it's literally not an indie game by definition, but because of some AI generated textures and shit?that's some faggot melty logic
>>728953893Blue Prince chads how we feeling now?
>>728953893Nice.People gassing this slop up for months has been annoying to say the least.
>>728967373>ESL doesn't know what the Indie Game awards are>Agrees with the two fat basedjaks who run it simply out of contrarianism.How Brown is your skin?
>>728967470I'm a scandi, thank you for asking.
>>728967521Ah so spiritually Brown or one of the 'new Scandinavians?'
>>728967568The racist ones.
>>728953893So... "not using AI" was in the rules of the competition?>Check rules>No rules talk about the use of AI.hmmm.....
>>728967630Ah one of the 'New Scandanavians' As-salamu alaykum, we of the fat and bald welcome our bulls.
>>728953893>AI usageDidn't they just use AI to create some placeholders that got removed from the game before or at launch?
>>728966837one day AI will full spit out novel games. their fears arent unfounded. It is just funny that this all comes from the perspective of them being no longer needed. voice actors? soon to be the past. Artists? Most of them not needed. Programmers? Most of them not needed.It is just a creature of the past faced with its extinction.
Why does AI make leftists crash out so hard?
>>728967286I sincerely didn't get the hype for this one
>>728967732Oh yeah fair enough I think those ones are more racist than the ones I'm part of. The Klu Klux Klan of drunken eunuchs.
>>728967801Or, greedy ass corporations can not go full retard and not use it as an excuse to cut corners and instead let it be a tool used by creators.
>>728967841Because the retards developing and funding AI keep saying shit like "AI and robots will make it so humans aren't needed for jobs"
people are acting like they threw a prompt into chatgpt and had it make the entire game for them
>>728968164It made the story and soundtrack
>>728967286celebratory dirt cake moment
>>728967286>jewish cabal promised it'd become GOTY>it doesYeah nice (((indie))) game you got there
>>728965109>trannies>leftist>communist>jewish mediayawn..
>>728953893>Excrement 33 is AI slopI always wondered why the game looks so fucking soulless and gay.
If we ever get another case of a massively failed boycott attempt in the future, ala Hogwarts Legacy, it will have to involve some frivolous AI usage. I guarantee it.
>>728953893>>728964228hate to link a reddit post but this is what the search returned so here:https://www.reddit.com/r/IndieDev/comments/1j2wpg5/how_did_sandfall_interactive_clair_obscur/Although wikipeda just says:>"After inking a partnership with Kepler Interactive, which was officially announced in early 2023, and securing funding from said publisher..."in any case; point being, this game was an investment. it's easy for rich people to follow a dream project. sure this is no AAA budget but it's still far more than any other indie game had without crowdfunding. even with crowdfunding, only Star Citizen and some random ass rpg (i guess a wannabe ultima clone) surpassed it.oh and yeah, crowdfunding is the usual indie way to gather money in case you forgot.everybody seems to think there's only AAA and INDIE and nothing else in between. hate to bring up politics but this reminds me of the american braindead left-right opposition.ps. this game looks gay as fuck anyway. maybe just because it's french (they're just genetically faggot-y or something), but all I've seen about it is gay fantasy drama and glorified quick time events in a turn based rpg (what a revolutionary mechanic) not to mention how the music makes me physically cringe.I wish it flopped and made some rich nepobaby loose some of his daddy's change. instead you pigs ate it up like the UE5 AI slop it is.
>>728968671Already happened
>>728953893nobody ever heard of the indie game awardstheir judges are just a bunch of danger haired women and troonsthey're literally just attention whoring by "disqualifying" E33 for AI use even though it was known since the game launched that they had AI placeholder textures in the gamefake and gay engagement bait
>>728965109>latin american games>sea games>black voice gaming>woman-led games>dames 4 games (dei focus)>Laura kate (troon)KEK, at this point it's almost better to no be nominated at this shitshow.
>>728953893Of all the reasons they could have used to disqualify E33, they picked the most retarded reason. They may as well have disqualified it for using Unreal Store assets or having a team size larger than 29. I'm almost certain they didn't DQ it for having a small publisher, because other Indie games up for awards probably also have publishers, and the hypocracy would be all too apparent. AI is a tool that allows for smaller team and budget, it equalizess things for the little guy developer self publishing on steam or wherever. I bet it's a bunch of seething booty blasted artists screeching about their job security that are responsible for this, and I sympathize, but E33 did have a lead artist, and writer, and musician, and coders. They just used some AI to cut costs.
>>728963186Bro, the game had a budget of like 10 million. It would have been 15 million if they had to hire more people to do grunt work or delayed release to keep working on it. It's not about being lazy, it's about efficiency.
>>728970327So you're saying E33 could have hired more indie devs but we're so greedy they opted to use Ai instead. I CAN'T AFFORD GROCERIES YOU PIECE OF SHIT
>>728970327And I should care about their budget because...?
>>728957170yup those also arent indie
>>728968447what the hell is wrong with him?
>E33fags desperately defending AI nowI always knew you guys were fucking jeets. "White man's game" my ass
>>728971328The game's literally made with clashing copypasted UE assets. Literally hire this man tier shit
>>728971282he is me
well they lied to the judges its fair they lost it because of the rules
>>728953893All this will do is make me look up who this award host is and file them on my shitlist
>>728967286Funny cause this game is actually filled with AI
>>728972090nopeIt took seven years because he let his buddies make all the assets
>>728965109Let's not pretend like TGA judges are somehow any better
>>728953893AI could free artists to work on whatever they want. The issue is capitalism won't transfer the benefits. Instead of crying about AI, we need to come together to overthrow the system itself
>>728958006>It barely got any new players>went from 12k daily to 30k with peaks of 50kNigger, open your eyes, holy shit.
>>728957643>twitter, reddit, reset eraThe fact that you're cheering for the three most cancerous websites says a lot about you.
>>728965643Its simple you absolute midwit, people that like to screech daily that they are Anti-AI are just obnoxious and retarded just like the ultra AI simps, majority of the population knows that AI is not gonna change the world but is here to stay.
>>728972090I bet a lot of game devs are using AI for basic shit like textures or smaller details and just aren't saying they are.
>>728957170silksong is the only indie game ever made
They hating because they're jealous
"Indie" has always been a bullshit title based on a bullshit sense of moral and artistic superiority with arbitrary rules made up by champagne socialists so yeah, that makes sense. Also it's why fuck indie.
Indie devs would be stupid to not embrace AIYeah ok spend months, years even, learning and mastering particular skills you have no interest in just to be in the good graces of ignorant terminally online people who reject technological advances because change is scaryInstead, focus on doing the parts of game dev that you want to do and use ai to help co-develop the parts of gamedev you aren't as interested in
>>728953893of course this slop was made by AI.
>>728953893>indie game awardswho gives a fuck lmao
>>728958006It's time to take care of your health.
>>728965368Why do conservatives tend to be vocally pro-AI, and leftists anti-AI? Obviously not all, but the most vocal ones online. Shouldn't right leaning people want to conserve traditional art?
>>728973483This is a lie. It was mostly made by random crap from the asset store.
>>728976112Chuds are fucking retarded and have convinced themselves that ai wont be biased towards their political views and wont censor them.They do this because they a dumb as rocks and don't know they are getting lied to and can't even imagine that ai will start spamming them with ads within a year or two.
>>728976112>Shouldn't right leaning people want to conserve traditional art?Bold of you to assume the common rightoid goon would care about traditional art. They're very anti art and anti intellectual if anything.
>>728976285>calling people dumb>makes spelling mistakesits over for leftism
>>728972264Yeah and they still used AI
>>728953893I didn't even know there was an "indie game awards" and honestly with each passing year it's getting harder and harder to give a shit about Geoff"s VGA's as well. There's something about awards shows that seem so gay and pointless to me that I can't really put into words.
Not for realizing it isn't indie, but for using AI. LOL
