So this is the future?Just navigating through piles and piles of AI slop hoping for 1 decent game?
Oh look it's another AI thread
ive lost all interest to games released after 2024 due to ai slop, oh well..time to clear that backlog and find new hobby
>>733730252Only people who are mentally ill care about "muh AI". If a game is shit then it's shit. AI is completely irrelevant.
>>733730974>dude they will make good soulless games
>>733730974AI shills deserve the cursed world they are slowly creating.
>>733731096Yeah? Obviously the AAA studios replacing all their artists to maximise profits are going to make soulless trash (as they would have already, just worse), but random hyperfocus autistics that are too insufferable to work with a team are now able to make their own personal dorf forts because AI can do all the art and sound assets.
>>733731376If you have a good idea you don't need art and sound assets in the first place, people will buy your game with mspaint or ascii art.AI art is trying to hide even worse slop beneath it 100% of the time.
>>733730252>steam userswhich ones?
>>733731509If you grew up in the original dungeon crawl stone soup era maybe, nobody under 40 wants to look at ascii or spreadsheets or walls of text
>>733730252Yes and it will only get worse
>>733730252Trannies really thought their reddit downvotes would do anything
>>733731096You do realize most developers have been using 3rd party assets for the past 10 years and almost all developers are using 3rd party game engines? Games with a "soul" have stopped being a thing since 2010.
>>733730252Even slop shills admitted this was going to happen years ago when they had already retreated to saying that this would be no worse than how things had already been.
>>733730252The Steam store is filled to the brim with shovelware. AI slop will be right at home next to the hundreds of dogshit titles created to siphon 20 bucks from porn addicts.
>you can't complain about a river of sewage from a busted pipe>because a few homeless people were shitting in the street last year
>>733730974This. There's good AI art and there's shit AI art. Just like there's good normal art and shit normal art. If it's good, it's good. >b-b-buh muh soul-You don't even realize when it's AI, if the person making it is halfway competent.
>>733730252Yes, just check the f95 catalog to see our future
>>733732601>food analogyhow is AI cover art worse than literal asset flips that have been investing the steam store for more than a decade now?
>>733730252It's always a new slop. Remember the shovelware with green light? Or when Godot got popular? Or ue. Or unity?Always something to complain about. And this time it different than last time?
>>733732775>good AI artno there isn't>You don't even realize when it's AIyes, I do, you can always tell it's a generic mishmashrealistic videos have become indistinguishable from reality, which will have way worse consequences, but art is always going to be arta program can't do art
>>733732089Oh fuck off. Most devs use chairs and trees and shit and still tweak them.The soul is not in the game, it is in you, and its long gone, my friend
>>733732856>food analogyPatel...
>>733732856> sewage> "food analogy"> ai is of the future, be of the acceptingsaarmaxxing today are we
Indieslop has always been a sea of abysmal garbage, with or without aithere's rarely a good indie, and for each good one there's thousands of shit ones
>>733731096>>733731224>>733733030Do you think digital cameras killed painting? I really hope you smashed your phone's cameras otherwise you're spewing nonsense which you don't actually believe.Did you shit your pants when Photoshop was invented? How about when Paint.exe was made? Artists use digital tools all the time without knowing the underlying mathematical or physical meaning behind those tools. You're acting as if the existence of digital art tools means that every single person is just doing a bucket fill and not giving a shit about the resulting image. There is a difference between someone with a vision and someone who just makes a prompt saying "create a cool character".Please return to only looking at caveman hand paintings if technology scares you.
>>733730252Kek I called it when everyone was dabbing on Tim Sweeney for saying an "AI tag" makes no sense. Every game is going to have AI in it soon, whether it be through art or coding or something else.
>>733730974>uf a game is shit then it's shit.Exactly.Except soon there will be a functionally infinite supply of them to sort through.
>>733733342Add in crying about luddites and a horse and car analogy and this'd be an AI shill stock phrase bingo
>>733730252All they have to do is put a generative AI tag for people to filter. It's literally that easy.
>>733730252use AI to sort through the garbage and filter out all the AI slop
>>733730252Sorry tranny you lost now instead of your unity horror game we can play a good game that isn't about axewound seething
>>733730252lmao steamtards I thought gabe cared about you faggots
>>733730252remember when people got pissed off at tim swindle about valve labeling ai shit then greedy gabe bent the knee, the futre s NOW
>>733733514>functionally infinite supply of them to sort through.This is already the case and has been the case for over a decade.
>>733730974I saw someone flip out because a solo dev used AI to make item icons for their game. People are weird about AI usage.
The internet died in exchange for fake videos of Sam Altman shoplifting. Was it worth it?
>>733733342>car replaces horse and cartNice, who needs horses anyway>AI replaces the need for human thinking and creativityNice, who needs humans anyway
Steam needs a quality control so bad. 19k games were released last year alone and i fear this year might be +30k. When decent AI coding tools become available, shit is going to be 50-100k games per year.
Neat.
>>733730974AI is the definition of low effort. Why would I pay money for you not to do work?
>>733730252AI will increase everyone's output 10x. So there will be 10x more shovelware but there will be 10x more good shit too
>>733735954The ratio will be like 10x more games but only a small amount more good games.Like look at indie shit. 100x more games, maybe like 1% more good games.
Digital distribution was a mistake. We need to go back to physical releases only.
>>733737568This.
>>733733342>scaresThere is an ocean of difference between being scared of something and thinking something is gay/retarded.
>>733732775If AI art was good you wouldn’t be able to tell it’s even there.
Searching for games released before 2018-2019 successfully filters steam from that pile of shit for you, thank me later
>>733730252I don't even bother with Nextfest, it's nothing but trash.>>733730337UH OH, MELTY.
>>733735954>there will be 10x more shovelwareCorrect.>but there will be 10x more good shit tooIncorrect.I've seen more slop images than I can begin to define yet I can still count the number of slop generated memes that made me smile, not even laugh just smile, on one hand. There's no reason to suspect that video games will have a more favorable ratio of passable slop to horrid fucking dogshit.
>>733733342Retarded indians always comparing slop to past advances in tech is so tired and overdone at this point, get new material ranjeesh
>>733738185AI art objectively raised the average quality of released art and you're a lying faggot if you deny this. Many of the funniest memes in the past several years were AI generated too, not to mention AI bringing classic memes to life.
>>733730252This is actually a good thing. Now you don't even need to look at the game to know it's garbage.
>>733737568starforce and securom lmao
I hate India and Israel
>>733737810That's exactly what he said, retard
>>733738284That's incorrect because there isn't any slop in existence that's worth anything.
>>733738284This post is the grimmest indictment of the quality of the board these days, jesus christ.
>>733738284average anakinfag lol
>PC is the dedicated slop platformNo shit, anyone with a brain already knows this
anyone defending this literally eats shit in the ganges
>>733730252just play the games released before 2022 or earlierdon't see the issue
>>733738284denounce /v/ishnu
We must return to physical media. It's the only way to stop this.
>>733742786>Platform where everyone can make and post whatever they want has more bad games than platforms that are absurdly monitored but that have infinitely fewer gamesNo shit, anyone with a brain already knows this
>>733743000none of the people complaining were going to play any of those games anyways. It is purely performative.
>AI jacked up computer costs>AI flooded my porn sites with glossy samey slop>AI is enabling low effort shovelware spamI'm about ready to start hurting AI shils.
>AI made poorfags seethe>AI lets me make great and enjoy great new art>AI makes autists seetheI'm about to smile.
