Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

I really never understood why PUBG was ever popular. It already played like a pile of slop without the use of AI.

When I was heavily into the game, that was part of the charm and the source of a lot of laughter and fun. Seeing your buddy's character laser shot into space from the back of a truck was fun!

I just hated how it felt, if felt unresponsive and clunky. Like someone spent about 5 minutes in their engine creating the movement system.

I'm sure it was fun, otherwise no one would have played it. I'm probably in the minority on this opinion. I feel the same way about DayZ

KRAFTON? More like KRAPTON of AI slop in their future.

Is the chief ai officer a clanker?

[–] CubitOom 31 points 1 day ago

We can add any "AI" game company to this.

Poor Tango gameworks. They really tried to do things different and Hi Fi Rush was especially awesome. I weep for the AI churn that will spit out some soulless sequel.

These are the same assholes who screwed the subnautica devs out of their bonuses to fund AI slop. Watching themselves shoot themselves in the foot in real time is oddly satisfying.

Reading that headline I thought they created an AI executive to replace some useless fuck.
