So they lied about Larian then?
why do people pay any attention schrier
>>728989850I'm not watching that.

yes
Obvious chinese guerilla marketing story. Not buying BG3. Not buying DOS.
>>728989927attention
>>728989850Said who?Asmongold already said that larian support ai so i believe him
>>728989850>shilling Larianunc went woke
>>728989850Kinda. Larian does use AI but the jew said that they're "pushing hard" on it in typical sensationalist urinalist fashion.
>>728989927>why do people pay any attention schrierSomethin somethin, journalism, somethin nepotism.
>>728989850According to your favorite faggot YouTuber, yes.
Man only knows how to lie, you know why
I will not buy AI slop games
I will now buy AI slop games
>>728989850Not they. Be specific. And Smash JT is not the best source for this. Jason Schrier lied that Larian Studios was "pushing hard", and that he doesn't have the warrants for that. Schrier posted the interview section, but refused a retraction. Schrier also made sure angry tranny concept artists at the company were in on the article, which is why you had that coordination there. >>728990616>>728990949The lie is that Larian is doing anything that other AAA studios aren't. In fact they seem to be doing less.
>>728989850Schreier isn't dumb enough to directly lie. What he did was, if you read the transcripts, highlight and emphasize things that he likely knew were controversial, and that could give a false view of reality.>>728990182Just read the transcripts.
>>728989850"Pushing hard" was editorializing by Schreier
>>728989850I think the interesting thing is that Schreier very intentionally left out any mention that Larian even bought a boutique concept art firm.
>D:OS2 and BG3 tourists only now learn that Larian are lying fucks and to never trust whatever they say.
>>728991332>Inb4 Sven puts jewboy on the naughty list like Todd did for all future TES and Fallout (lol) games
>>728991420I've played Larian games for close to two decades at this point. Can you explain to me what exactly Larian lied about? From your comment, I'm meant to deduce that this lying behavior is even more widespread. What exactly is the Larian lying epidemic?
>>728991332He did more than emphasize. His industry friends absolutely know what the fuck is going on at the various studios with AI, and how some of them, particularly the screaming artfags who are getting fired are dealing with it. It's more than just reckless. It was absolutely a hit piece. >>728991387That concept art firm isn't his friends. >>728991420Of course, but "big tits are for pedos" dude here is far, FAR worse.
Schreier is literally a jew. Case closed.
>>728989850Explain how
>>728991592Here's a more neutral source.https://www.gamesindustry.biz/larian-ceo-clarifies-studio-is-not-replacing-concept-artists-with-aiYou can compare the original interview with Jason's transcript. Larian never said it was pushing hard on AI at all. In fact, they're hiring when most shops are firing.And of course some of Shrier's partners/hangers on are taking the chance to swat at the company.https://www.resetera.com/threads/zo%C3%AB-quinn-and-multiple-game-writers-come-forward-about-larians-hiring-practices-unpaid-writing-tests-you-have-to-make-playable.1386028/>>728991546More than that, a stereotype of one.
>>728991938Swen acknowledges there is pushback from employees though and he even admits using it isn't faster. If it is as optional as he claims then there would be no pushback. One could definitely interpret that as pushing hard.
>>728992134> If it is as optional as he claims then there would be no pushback.That makes no sense. The artists have agency and they can and sometimes have decided they want to push against AI. We can also verify this from Jasons friends that just happened to have anti AI art shit ready to go with the article.>One could definitely interpret that as pushing hard. He's claiming it's optional. No specification on tools used, performance, or standards. There's no way in hell you can justify. Point to the part of the transcript that justifies "hard". Jason absolutely knows this is a hot button issue from all the angry artists getting fired, and I don't believe him at all when he said he had no idea that this would be controversial.We know many artists are pushing hard AGAINST any AI use.
Let me guess. This will be an another 400+ replies thread because it's Larian?
>>728992134That’s the biggest fucking stretch I’ve heard all year.
>>728992358Wasn't there a story about some QA workers and a junior environment artist complaining about being forced to use AI? I think that was at Larian unless I'm misrememberring. This was pretty recent.
>>728991420Retard. Schreier made up a headline to fool complete idiots like you. Sorry, Tendiebro, yet another failed attempt at shutting down Larian. Zelda will never recover from bear cock, or Lizard cloaca in 2030 when Divinity wins GOTY.
>>728989850Larian literally admitted they use gen AI to "explore" ideasthey're so fucked they use AI to tell artists what they want them to draw
>>728992632>extremely low level positionstheir leads probably just told them “you should try this out” and they got triggered over it.also AI has been used in QA and bug finding for years at this point, it’s hardly controversial in the same way art is.
>>728992632Former employees, and they are not saying AI was required, they are against any use of AI. None of them have specified any tool requirements. And they're including "people who interviewed for positions", which include, and I kid you not ZQ.More importantly though, Schrier didn't use the claims of the employees in his article to justify the "hard push". Didn't verify the claims or go through the normal press confirmation process, didn't allow Larian to respond to the claims. Just from the interview, he claimed it was a hard push.
>>728992918Strange then that they're hiring humans while everyone else in AAA is firiring.
>>728992918>they're so fucked they use AI to tell artists what they want them to drawno what happens is>director/writer/designer tells art department what they want art of, possible directions/inspirations>concept artists create an image board for reference while making concept art>the company, in the interest of exploring new technology and speeding up dev time (their last game took 6 years to make) has generative AI as an option for these idea boards.>director admits this tech hasn’t improved efficiency much
>>728989927For (you)s.
>>728989850It kinda feels like people already stopped caring. You think the Reddit AMA will finally calm everyone down?
>>728992583So big that anon there isn't even claiming he supports it. Just "one COULD" see it that way.
>>728993287I don’t think that’s reasonable. Even if it was genuine he would have changed his wording after receiving criticism. But he didn’t because honest journalism wasn’t his goal.
>>728992989Schrierer goes off word of mouth and corporate emails. If a lead suggests or demands using AI tools then it's probably not documented. The way Swen talks about it does seem experimental but also quite sweeping in its use across a lot of departments. Using it to write company emails, concept art, scripting, etc. I can see employees not liking so much experimental suggestions even if they are optional (for now). Let's hope Larian doesn't turn into Microsoft.
>>728989850>Swen admits to using AI>Swen doubles down on using AI>It is all Jew McJewface's faultThis makes no sense.
>>728994569Have you heard of the word nuance?
>>728993460Does not fucking matter. Schrier didn't cite those sources at all, and when got called out, he refereed ONLY to the interview. Highlighting a difference of claims between the former employees and boss would actually be an interesting article, but that requires letting Larian respond to the claims by the former employees. Jason himself categorized Larian's statement like that and when challenged, he claimed the interview and only the interview was enough to justify it. This is on par with the sleaziest shit he did in the Kotaku days. >Let's hope Larian doesn't turn into Microsoft.They literally bought a concept art company. Microsoft is doing mass layoffs of artists. Bigger risk is if they get bought.
>>728994569McGayDwarfface didn't just say they were using it, but that that the larian boss was pushing hard for it, when it seems they're using it significantly less than other AAA shops..
>>728989850>early life person>lies
>>728989850damn, I thought I wouldn't fall for jewish tricks anymorelarian is still wokeslop though
>>728994569those were all lies
