Whatever production time and cost was "saved" by using AI for one of the most human-dependent disciplines in game making was actively obliterated by the act itself, overshadowing the hard work of every single other developer on the project and making this situation impossible to right. WHO KNEW.
For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore.

seeing a lot of people posting up a nice looking media promo pack for (game) which includes a cool polaroid camera and walkman, but (game) uses AI voices which apparently aren't even done well so i'm gonna give it a big shrug and buy something else instead

I wonder how many of the photos used in this montage by a prominent media outlet were taken with the consent of the sitter, maybe that’s a societal evil worthy of some investigation rather than whatever this is

have experienced a mini-miracle: all of a sudden, my hearing is back to normal, deafness in my right ear has vanished, the popping every time i tilt my head has stopped, it's just....gone. fixed. and my tinnitus has gone from 7 or 8 noises simultaneously, to a quiet hiss on its own. 10/10 recovery

Funko admits “substantial doubt” it can continue as a going concern amid crashing sales and mounting debt.
The Pop! maker warns of potential loan defaults without fresh funding or a buyout, after a 14% sales drop and $250M in obligations.
