wake me up when AI will unlock my switch 2 instead of nintendo so I can use the hardware I bought
Wake me up when women in games stop being ugly

>>748867220>The two consoles where I love the idea of playing on them but the reality of playing on them is much more boringIs it just that they have some interactive bullshit on the controller that causes this? I swear I love these consoles until I'm actually playing them
>>748868873Too late
>>748866921AI will kill the games industry as well know it in general. How do you justify spending $400 million on a videogame when someone can clone it in a month?How do you justify spending any amount of time and money at all when you're competing with 1,000 games being released the same week or even the same day?I honestly think the entire industry as it stands today, from indie to AAA, is finished. There's going to have to be a radical rethink in how games are developed, published, and distributed. People will only make videogames either as soulless churned-out slop or simply for the love of videogames, nothing in-between. It probably won't be something you can do as a job anymore, at least not for a while. Not until society and the world economy figures out how to cope with AI in general. Maybe lots of small 1-4 person artisanal studios that put out games several times a year for a dollar.
>>748869479>1,000 games being released the same week or even the same daySteam could easily stop this by raising the entry fee to $1000
We're not seeing anymore anything.This is the end of this iteration of human civilization. Brinze age collapse 2.0.AI is going to kill gaming and movies several ways, first the silicon backorder will cause a shortage in all devices that can even access media (no more personal computing, no more cheap phones), next it will be able to replicate any human effort causing a flood of polished garbage that drowns out the earnest human ones, which will diminish interest in every medium.Then the current war with Iran and trade war with China will break down (has already broken down) global supply chains for oil and cheaply manufactured electronic goods, meaning even if AI pops we're looking at a dark decade or more of consumer tech stagnation ans backsliding.Then after we've burned through enough fuel and human lives to get past this hurdle (famine would have killed many of the workforce of the undeveloped global south), subjugated the AI/tech oligarchs and Israel, restored world peace and global supply chains, we will roughly be in time (2050 or so) to see global warming and climate change impose a hard cap on human survival on the planet. Oil based economies will be outlawed if there is any global cooperation left, it will be switch to green energy or we go almost extinct.The only way this doesn't happen is if the regime currently ruling US and Israel who caused the wars and breakdowns of supply chains and the big tech AI development is overthrown tomorrow.Otherwise it's over. We might get a half-hearted PS6 releases but everything after will be Nintendo Labo cardboard tier.
>>748869753Could we not have ended on kino?
>>748869753*Bronze age collapse*oil and fertilizer*AI bubble popsMy grandfather played with sticks and stones, my father played with sticks and stones, I played an N64, my son will play a PS5, his son will play a PS6, but his son will play with sticks and stones.
>>748869957My kids will play with a ps5. And their kids will too.
>>748866921How is AI killing old consoles?
>>748871139I meant it'll change the future.
>>748869538"could"
>>748866921Starting in 2018, games started utilizing AI-assisted development.Playing anything from 2024 and later is a AI humiliation ritual.
>>748869753Enough games have already been made that we can all play a new game every hour and not run out. And if I can Holodeck-prompt whatever I want from now on then who cares I don't have to wait for trannies to make it for me every 5-10 years? >muh climateIf that was real Germany wouldn't have shut down their nuclear plants. It's all a grift. Only China and India have any say in how much pollution is created anyway. The only thing anyone can do to meaningfully cut their carbon footprint is kill themselves, so why don't you create the change you want to see in the world, faggot.
My AI made this game
>>748869479Also, how do you justify spending $400 million on a video game when it's going to die in a week because the publishers are bean-counting retards?This shit is EXACTLY how the previous game crash happened- even though there aren't an abundance of game consoles to pick from, there's a massive oversaturation of games that's already been getting far worse, whether it's AI-generated games that barely function, endless copy-pasted mobile games, endless console game remakes (because creativity is dead) or PC games that require prohibitively expensive components.The current crash is because gaming companies keep jerking themselves off about how woke and diverse they are while hiring very few people that ACTUALLY play games or have any connection to the community, and spend so much time and money on development to completely dumpster the game after it predictably fails to perform. There's no way these companies aren't doing this shit on purpose at this rate unless there's something in the water in Commiefornia that makes them this braindead.Nintendo (a company that was largely a trading card game company beforehand) was extremely fortunate that Super Mario Bros. became the saving grace for the gaming community. But I don't think anybody's coming to save us this time around. We're completely and totally fucked.
>>748866921Switch 2 might be my last console. I’m just not having fun with new vidya anymore.
>>748872219>But I don't think anybody's coming to save us this time around. China will make cultivation games and save us
>>748871525>Enough games have already been made that we can all play a new game The problem is all those games are stored on Valve-rented CDNs.Remember how all those computer games from the late '80s to early '00s became essentially lost media? When computing hardware becomes expensive or impossible to replace because of global supply chain breakdown, the first thing to go will be global access to said CDNs which will immediately remove access to large portions of the internet and every game on Steam. So unless you've backed up all those games you won't be playing anything.>If that was real Germany wouldn't have shut down their nuclear plants.Where have you been the last decade. The last decade has been Germany lamenting their choice and general admission that they were tricked by the US/NATO into shutting them down. It made them extra dependent on Russia oil, and with Nord Stream being destroyed by US it made Germany's energy crisis even worse, having to depend on US natural gas.This was generally regarded as a massive mistake.Wrt to pollution, the US is still at the top:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_carbon_dioxide_emissions_per_capitaCanada #12, Aus #15, US #16, collective European countries much higher, China #25, India #124.Also these metrics are current emissions not counting historical which would mean western countries would be even higher when you count the total.
>>748869479How the hell do your justify spending the current costs on 500 man teams with 6 years of development, when all the best games were made by less than 40 guys in 2-3 years?AI used to make an actual commercially viable product costs more than competent developers.>How do you justify spending any amount of time and money at all when you're competing with 1,000 games being released the same week or even the same day?How do you justify making any new games when you are competing with a corpus of work spanning the last 40 years? It's an amount that no one can reasonably play through and includes some of the best games of all time.>I honestly think the entire industry as it stands today, from indie to AAA, is finished. There's going to have to be a radical rethink in how games are developed, published, and distributed. AAA died in 2011, but yes the industry has been finished for a long time and needs to rethink its paradigm. The only reason it kept dragging on after the early 2000s is because it was a memestock with what was seemingly a boom and bust cycle.
I wish they had made more 3D games for 3DS. It doesn't have that big of a 8+/10 library and many games didn't utilize the 3D properly.
>>748874523I suppose it's because the effort requirement was big but effect was small or purely cosmetic.At least 3DS games made by humans even if asset flips.
>>748875337In the Mario game the 3D effect helped a lot in calculating the long distance jumps because you could gauge the distance better with depth vision. I noticed it when I sometimes turned the 3D off to rest my eyes and the long jumps turned out like shit without it.
>>748874523Which games actually do properly use 3D? I don't think I've ever seen any.
>>748874184There's always be pirates to buy a dedicated pirate machine from unc. (There already is.)
Shut the fuck up, you keep spamming this board with nonsense. RapeApe killed this site.
>>748876336says the election tourist.
>>748876220In one of the 'Mario & Luigi' games, enabling 3D made it easier to dodge that circle goomba attack. Or at least it did for me.
>>748874184Nigel they just shut down their last nuclear plants a few years ago and it was being pushed by their own Green party not the US or anyone else.
>>748874184Also whatever chart you're reading is fake and gay. It's China at #1, India at #2 (appropriate), and then every Western country way down at the bottom barely registering, basically a rounding error. And THIS is the one place where you niggerfaggots choose to apply "per capita"? Not on crime statistics though, right? Pollution is one place "per capita" is irrelevant. I can live alone in my own country and burn a forest down at every mealtime and my country will have the worst per-capita in the world but as a country I'll be irrelevant in terms of actual global pollution output. In that situation, I'm not the one causing a problem, it's the billion people living just west of me, each burning down HALF a forest at every mealtime. By your definition they're only half as bad though and I need to clean up my act before I destroy the planet!By the way, tell your friends that California almond farming uses 100x as much water as every datacenter ever built combined.Literal actual unironic book-definition retard.
>>748876975Not that guy but if you hypothetically turned China and India into a bunch of smaller countries like Europe but they polluted the same amount would that be okay? There is no China or India to blame. Each individual country would pollute less than a western country of the same size.
