The reason why I like Dungeon Lords so much is that its design is super anachronic.

Made by one of Wizardry's devs, it's a 3D Action-RPG from 2005 designed like an 80s CRPG. It has random enemy encounters in town, maze-like dungeons, riddles, traps, brutal status effects, unidentified items, etc...

been thinking more about making a 3d platformer and wanted to see if I can capture a different style with my textures. I think I'm onto something

The fun thing is that there's actually A LOT of these mega-obscure independent RPGs in the 90s & early 2000s.

Usually only sickos played them. But then again, these tend to be exactly the people who go on to make cool games lol

That No Clip documentary on Dwarf Fortress was really heart-warming...

... but it now bothers me that I skipped Tom Proudfoot's games in the CRPG Book. I was aware of Natuk and Nahlakh, they have a cult following at the RPG Codex, but I ended up not incluiding them... 💀

damn digital foundry putting halo infinite on the guillotine to make a point about how art and world design and curating what distant LOD models to render can make huge differences in how attractive an open world can look regardless of hardware

Other additions: a search by magazine and a still embryonic page on movie poster artists and VHS/DVD illustrators. Only film posters also used to illustrate video games are included for the moment, but I'll be adding to the artists' pages as I go along.

I've also added a page listing the profiles of female video game developers and artists that I've put online. The list is still short, but it will grow very soon.

I've added a number of sections and galleries to my site over the last few weeks, starting with a gallery on physical game art, with, as usual, the names of the artists (or, failing that, the company responsible for the work).

On February 10, 2000, one of the visual highlights of the PS1 -Vagrant Story- was released, created by 2D graphic designers who were making the transition to 3D.
(it was also one of the games that more or less accompanied the launch of the PS2, which had very few games when it debuted in March)

I really don't think I've ever seen a technology that is so singularly effective at taking a pre-existing form of rot or brokenness in institutions and lighting it on fire.

We are in so much trouble

don’t have much room to ponder over the result.” Even when time was not constrained, knowledge workers often lacked incentives to engage in critical thinking when it is perceived as not part of their job responsibilities (11/319). P232, who used ChatGPT to write the company’s marketing campaigns: “verification and rewriting is handled by another part of the team. The team is able to verify, sense check and modify the content of the landing pages as they see fit.” Ability barriers. Participants face obstacles to enacting critical thinking, specifically in verifying and improving GenAI output, even if they are otherwise motivated to do so. Participants report barriers to inspect AI responses (58/319), such as not possessing enough domain knowledge. As P290 noted: “in cases where you don’t know the specific topic [e.g., translation and math problems], it’s hard to determine whether the AI is giving the correct answer or not.” Even if knowledge workers identify limitations in the GenAI output, they encounter barriers in revising queries and improving the response (72/319). For example, P239 received negative feedback from colleagues for a document that ChatGPT helped her write, but “I’m not sure how I could have improved the text that ChatGPT wrote.” Also, GenAI tools can be “stubborn” and do not follow through with users’ revised prompts, as P208 shared when asking GenAI to fix an error in his code: “it repeatedly recommended the wrong solution despite asking for a different suggestion.”

The whole paper is an absolute nightmare funfair ride through the behaviours that have become almost instantaneously widespread through the professional world - something Microsoft have invested billions into accelerating and worsening no matter the consequences.
Integrate partial response (36/319). GenAI excels at generating large amounts of information that appear relevant, and not all of it is useful. Participants viewed the process of selectively incorporating the relevant parts of GenAI output into their tasks as critical thinking. For example, when P188 used ChatGPT to help her summarise her past work as an auditor for her resume: “some of the information provided did not particularly relate to my role and even to the country I was working in. So rather than copying over everything, I had to critically evaluate what would apply, the regulations mentioned - do they apply to the country I work in.” Modify style to be appropriate for the task (45/319). Finally, participants reflected not only on what to incorporate from the response, but also how to incorporate it. They might add a “personal touch”, or adjust the tone to align the response with their intended style. For example, when P210 used ChatGPT to revise his paper abstract, he had to rephrase the output with a scientific tone because “often the AI writes awful stuff like “our groundbreaking and fundamental analysis shows...” that sounds too emphatic and does not fit the scientific style.” Participants also attempted to make the GenAI output read less “AI-generated” and more personal, as P254 noted: “I did make sure it [email composed by ChatGPT] read properly and made sense and did sound like an email that I had composed myself and that a colleague would send.” Complementing our quantitative findings, knowledge workers’ trust and reliance on GenAI (83/319) doing the task can discourage them from critically reflecting on their use of the tools. Users often adopt a mental model that assumes AI is competent for simple tasks. This was influenced by users’ prior experience with GenAI tools, where the AI had proven trustworthy for specific tasks, as P289 noted: “With straightforward factual information, ChatGPT usually gives good answers.” For instance, P275 remarked: “It’s a simple task [make a passage professional] and I knew ChatGPT could do it without difficulty, so I just never thought about it, as critical thinking didn’t feel relevant.” This mental model, however, can lead to overestimating AI capabilities. Some users, like P185, believed the information provided by GenAI tools was always truthful and of high quality, while others (e.g., P143, P236) assumed the outputs would consistently and accurately reflect referenced data sources. Complementary to the perception of AI as being competent and capable, some participants expressed self-doubt in their ability to perform tasks independently, such as verifying grammar in text

Microsoft's own research confirms something that was already pretty obvious: relying on a text generating machine to come up with answers erodes critical thinking, and is a method favoured by those who never liked doing critical thinking in the first place
