I will be boycotting the Super Mario Galaxy movie. Nintendo have proven themselves once again to be cowards for skipping Super Mario World because they are afraid of giving us Oogtar. Shame on them.

Super Mario World has an extremely eclectic art style whereby many enemies are drawn in completely different ways. Development files reveal Mario went through many stylistic changes; it is possible that all the enemies were made to fit Mario, but at different points in time.

I don't like when people refer to media as "content" because it makes it feel like a show or a game or whatever is meant to be watched and then tossed away without a second thought. It's shallow, very much anti-art, in how it strips away meaning

but The Super Mario Bros. Movie feels like "content"
the new Mario Galaxy movie doesn't look good but I can't put my finger on why it and the first Illumination give me such an ick

The Joyce Carol Oates and “books written between 1890-1930 are so ALPHA” thing struck home because it showed how many elites nowadays lack the ability to be moved or find meaning in art beyond what we did watching John Wick and going fuck yea this rules and that explains why they believe in AI art

It is a staple mantra in the games industry, "Our pay for [X] is comparable to the industry's average wages," to which I would reply, "when you're raking in record profits, it's pretty lame to justify substandard pay with, 'that's what everyone else does.'"
Even on projects that don’t feature AI, it’s often difficult to justify how little voice actors get paid for work on projects that sell in the millions

So it’s fascinating to see folks say “they were compensated fairly” repeatedly on this occasion where we don’t even have the voice actors credited.
The argument I'm hearing about it is "the voice actors got paid for it so it's all good"

We don't know how much they got paid, or if they get royalties every time those lines get used.

It's a slippery slope being brushed off because "game good"

if Arc Raiders had plagiarized art, would it matter?

I secretly think that about ALL the “classic” franchises clogging up the cultural broadband these days.
Have they thought of not making any more Bond films

I feel like devs and CEOs need to accept that a consequence of using gen AI is that a lot of people won’t like it. That’s just the case as it is and the risks you take

“I used this controversial and unethical thing that there’s loads of dialogue around and vigilance about and now people are calling my game controversial and unethical :(“

I'm well aware a lot of the media I dislike I probably hate more than I normally would because of The Depression but also like. Man some games really are just boring
