If you want to call “modern publishers” any triple-A studio, then yeah. Fuck them. Fuck the corpos. Tell them to pound sand. You want passion-driven? Go buy indie games.
Why are these dullards keep printing articles over and over again about yet another AAA-studio plant seeing the light and realizing that maybe, just maybe, their billion dollar corporation doesn’t understand its own industry?
Sure, Deus Ex walked so Cyberpunk 2077 could run
No, Cyberpunk 2020 walked so that Cyberpunk 2077 could run. We could have lived in a world where Deus Ex did not exist at all, and Cyperpunk 2077 would still be borrowing from the same source material.
Hell, Deus Ex should be thanking the Cyberpunk universe, not the other way around.
But, yeah, I still really liked Human Revolution. I’m glad I passed on Mankind Divided.
Yes, very much so. I mean, that only gets you the protocol specs, but it’s a start.
The original point is that we shouldn’t have to fucking do this. If they want to end the game and shut down servers, open source the source code and let other people use it.
Then buy a pre-built PC.
That’s Steam’s secret: The Steam Machine is just a damn pre-built PC.
As if Sony is the only player here. We’re literally in /c/pcmasterrace.
Consoles became irrelevant when they were no longer the graphical leader a few generations ago.
It’s also a dumb fucking argument in general.
LLM models are not magic. They don’t store the entirety of human history in a 10-20GB file. That’s a fucking stupid idea. They look at something, process some weights, and move on to the next thing.
It’s like going on Google Image Search, and seeing all of the copyrighted images on your browser. You didn’t “steal” those, just because it was downloaded. That’s not how copyright works.
Please stop parroting this stupid fucking argument.
That was back when AAA studios were the only choice. We have options now, and the passion-makers choose to create on their own, or form mid-size teams when they get disillusioned with their former AAA jobs.
