If GenAI was truly “inevitable” and “the future,” you wouldn’t have rich executives putting out statements like this again and again. They know how unpopular it is (even as they’re ignorant of it crumbling around them), and keep trying to browbeat us into accepting it. They won’t succeed.

I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it.
All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference.

Friendly tip for folks. My discord got hacked yesterday and my computer was acting funky ever since. Turns out it was malware installed through a blender file I bought as part of an asset pack on CG Trader. I didn’t know blender files were being used this way, but I figured I’d spread the word.

every single frame of animation, in-house developed sound effect, line of code, visual asset, chart, and line of dialogue was done by a human and done without using generative AI tools in the making of UNBEATABLE. relinquishing creative choices to tools makes your work empty, vapid, and meaningless

Well, fuck. Revoking any and all Peripeteia recommendations (and I wish I could un-back it on Kickstarter) based on the very thinly veiled transphobia from the dev (the first one in the screenshots here).
I hate this.

Acquaintance grabbed these screencaps. Idk if it's getting purged.
"Second stage is people rejecting conspiracy discourse" is genuinely hilarious, I gotta teach em a little about Yakub and maybe they'll change their tune

I haven't seen a credits roll online, either. It would be legitimately interesting to get an interview with the VAs on this, due to how high profile the work is. Regardless of your views on the subject, it would be great info.
But, crickets. It's strange.

Anyway I’m sure there’s absolutely nothing noteworthy about the fact that the consenting voice actors for Arc Raiders aren’t known or named and they aren’t talking at all about how proud they are to be involved with such a popular title.
