>*Is white and has 0 jeet DNA in him unlike the frenchies in you're path*
There's a 400+ post thread on /v/ right now with anon after anon believing that Blue Prince used AI off of a The Escapist article.
>yet another instance of AIDS
>>729039662>JOURNALISTS BAD>Except if they shill AI
>SuggestedMeanwhile, the article before it got edited out>Ironically, Blue Prince used generative AI for its art assets as well. This includes small stuff like various background pieces, nothing core. But it still used it.>In fact, Blue Prince developers didn’t even claim this AI was “patched out.” This means that Blue Prince still has AI assets in the final product when it was being judged by the performative and self-righteous Indie Game Awards.
>>729039480What about Routine? Can we get confirmation it did not use AI?
>>729039480AI jeets would resort to libel rather than admitting that they eat up slop
>>729039662A mix of contrarians and literal shillsIt's in the (((companies))) best interest to try to force acceptance of this as soon as possible.
As a guy that mostly plays indie games anyways, I unironically agree with these trannies definition of indie.AI = AAA sloppaNon-AI = Indie
>>729039730Correct, AI is AIDS lolThis clever acronym of yours works in the favor of anti-AI chads.
>>729039480based
>>729039480>>729039824So they just straight up lied? Without any reason to believe they were right?
>>729040396There are too many fucking retards on the internet now that are so sure if are looks like a specific style visually it MUST be AI. Everyone became so fucking annoying over night with this shit.
The Escapist was always shit. Only reason anyone ever went there was Yahtzee.
>>729039480Indie teams can't afford 8 years development cycle (especially if the end result is blue prince), this isn't an indie and probably has rich people backing it
>>729040526art* looks like a specific style
>>729039480Journalists crying wolf on AI like with this and Larian is only going to make people not give a fuck once we get games actually using AI.God damn, journalists are fucking retards.
>>729040396seems like how most ai derangement victims operate
>AIjeets were bragging that Blue Prince used AIWhat is their goal?
>>729039480Video game "journalism," everyone.
>>729040631>muh journosthey only have the power you brain dead knuckledraggers give them. if you didn't reach right for the pitchfork every time some random person said "MUH AI", this wouldn't happen. you are all a part of the same wave of shit
>>729040631Except Larian actually is using AI, retard.Blue Prince didn't. They're just trying to throw Blue Prince in the bucket to try to make what Larian is doing more acceptable.>Inb4 "I use AI to come up with concept art for my game but I would NEVER EVER have anything AI in the actual product. Pinkie promise."
>>729040724>BOTH SIDES ARE BAD!!!fuck off you midwit retard
>>729039480who even works at the escapist now? isnt it just a fulltime clickmill?
Indie games (Actual indie games, not psyopped shit like Sandfall) will continue being our salvation for the next decade just like they have been for the past decade.
Some other gems from this article before it got edited out>But let’s be real: All games use AI in some way. From NPC behavior to object texture to coding to tracking developer tasks, all games use AI. It’s just the way it is now.Tee hee>>But again, all games have used AI in some way. It’s no jab at Blue Prince – it’s a jab at the Indie Game Awards. This reminds me of my friends who tell me they refuse to use Amazon because Jeff Bezos is an evil billionaire. It’s true that he is, but they’re texting me that from their iPhone while wearing clothes made by some sweatshop workers and listening to Spotify, which apparently supports ICE. When does it end?lol
>>729040976The irony being that AI could write a better article than this dude.
>>729040532This is the first time I've heard about the escapist in years, and it's just to see them shit the bed KEK
>>729040618IIRC the dude ran the MTG Mythicspoiler website and used the ad revenue to support the costs of Blue Prince.https://www.mythicspoiler.com/
>>729041095Based draftGOD game
>>729040976The AI jew really won by setting the terms of engagement to begin with. Now people pretend LLM is the same shit as enemy AI. Swindle of the century.
>>729040532And even all those shitters left along with Yahtzee so the website is a joke of itself now, and it was never a serious website to begin with.
>>729040396>Journo lied to get more clicks on his retarded articleWhat a shocker
>>729039480KWAB
>>729040396Considering it's known to just make stuff up, maybe he asked AI to write the article
>AIjeets can't imagine a game being made without AI even though this has been common practice for decadesWhat the fuck is their major malfunction?
>>729042652
blue prince would've been 100000000x better if it was just like myst. idk how a game whose core design philosophies are so fundamentally dissonant from each other could possibly win an award
>>729042797Creator used to work at Forbes I believe so it's another case of journalists jerking off their own.
>>729039480true or false, it still underscores the nature of the AI salem witch trials that are happening right now.
>>729040532Yahtzee and all the other guys who left must've driven 90% of their traffic. I don't know how they're still around especially with this level of incompetence.
>>729039480Blue Prince is legitimately shit being glazed by shit taste.
>>729039730AI is indeed dumb shit
>>729043137Yahtzee in particular was the biggest draw of their site. Which is also funny because he needed them to. Once he left, they went to shit, but Yahtzee himself lost all relevance.
>>729044514He is still making videos that get hundreds of thousands of views which is way more than you can say about the escapist
>>729042652It's a literal cult ,dude.
>>729039662Dall-E shills
Blue Prince is better anyways.
Should have been silksong
Welp, it turns out /v/ is easily fooled.
Is blue prince actually good? Anons were saying it was shit in obra dinn threads
>>729047893It is not good at telling you it has permanent upgrades. People complain about the RNG but that's just the game's mechanics you have to learn. It's basically a puzzle box that you have to twist and turn to get stuff out of. It has good puzzles but not all puzzles are great. or finished.
>>729039480Serious question, I got to the end of the atelier. is the True Will the actual finale?
>>729048201yeah
>>729047082https://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/728972328/#728982121>/v/ is easily fooled.Only the stupid ones.
>we went from studios apologizing for having character casts that are too white a decade ago to apologizing for using AIProgress?
>>729041218This is why I don't like the term "AI" to begin with. For starters, it's a misnomer. It also makes it sound more high-tech and advanced/futuristic than it actually is, to make it's adoption sound more inevitable and like an important advancement of technology when it's really just a lazy crutch. And yes, it allows bad actors to intentionally sow confusing between LLM and the type of legit AI that's always been in games.I'd like them to be called "plagiarism algorithms", which is really more acurate and honest than calling them "AI".
I played a few days but it didn't grab me right away, is it worth getting into?
>>729047893It's a slow as fuck RNG fest with some interesting puzzles. Speedhack highly recommended if you want to play past the first few runs.
>>729048641The misnomer is on purpose and it's the tech billionaires pushing it. Using "genAI" instead of "AI" clarifies it a bit more.
>>729047893>>729048827Seconding this. Unlike most roguelikes Blue Prince feels the need to have Animal Crossing tier speed animations, which can make a day where you don't even explore that much still take a long time. Your run speed is also horrendous, and the game feels the need to pause and show you what an item you've picked up 10 other times over the course of your runs does in case you forgot. Also don't be ashamed in quitting when you feel satisfied with the amount of stuff you've done, the reveals for solving the increasingly cryptic puzzles are increasingly underwhelming.
So everyone that "doesn't use AI" is just going to say "trust me bro" and that's it?
>>729048603Yes. That is progress. The latter is objectively bad.
>>729049843>Bro, they're totally all using it, trust me, saarYes, anon, that's what they have to do. Especially since AI doesn't actually make things more efficient outside of maybe coding.
>>729039480Based. AIfags get rekt.
>>729049843Swen literally admitted that AI makes things harder for them and they're just trying it out for the sake of following a fad.The reason they're even admitting it is because they just want to please the investors by saying they use it and they think they can tank the jeet reputation.
>>729039480Gaming journos lolNot even once
>>729039480AItard bros...
>>729050136>and they think they can tank the jeet reputationThey're right. Most consoomers don't give a shit and the ones that have been doing it for the sake of following the social justice herd will relent very easily.People like you and me are a minority and will become an even more irrelevant minority within the next decade.The normalcattle will eat up the slop.
>>729050060I don't know, Blue Prince lies pretty extensively about the kind of game it is on its store page so I don't find it that unbelievable they'd lie about other things.
AI is the future. Seething about it is no more effective than seething about card or cellphones.
The cat is out of the bag!
>>729050793>AI is the futureThat's what they said about JPEG XL or HD DVD.
The train doesn't stop/
>>729040862Kek Blue Prince literally had a publisher. 1000 indie game come out on steam every week and no one gives a shit.
