I have two creatives inside me: the one who wants to keep things secret until it's ready to be shared, and the other constantly craving to spoil everything about it before I even start working on it

LRT genuinely really sad about this. Was looking forward to the new Layton game a ton but this is so incredibly dissapointing. I have so much love for these games SPECIFICALLY because the art feels so special and unique. It won't embody that same charm when it's vomited out of the slop machine.

“Love it or hate it it’s here to stay” is a crazy thing to keep saying about a technology. If people don’t like using something it doesn’t have to stay we’re not talking about bad weather here

I love artists. Please keep creating things with your hands and whole soul. Make things that are imperfect, have fun with the process. Creating something yourself is so fulfilling.
Painstakingly draw every little detail, write your worlds.
I'm constantly inspired by the creative people in my life

Creative solidarity means:
If you're a writer, do not use AI "art" or AI "voiceover"
If you're an artist, do not use AI "writing" or AI "references"
If you're a streamer/actor, do not use AI for backdrops, thumbnails, etc.
Never help AI steal another medium
No excuses, no shortcuts, no surrender.

My brain still gets hooked on individual pieces of concept art from #DragonAge or #MassEffect, because they weren't just a Cool Image for the sake of cool imagery: they were an additional window into the world of the game, created by someone who understood how that world could grow.
The fact that the games industry is so dead-set on disregarding Concept Art as being part of the game it helps make is eternally frustrating to me.
If the slop machine extrudes a design for you that you then force an artist to make "real", that still means there's AI generated content in the game.

Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.
