Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

If you use or were considering using SAMMI, switch to a different program.
The new sole developer is extremely pro-AI, has already started using it in the code, and is in support of its use for genAI images as well. Everyone who protested this was told to leave the server and stop using SAMMI.

the best way to get out of an extrinsic game that you find yourself still playing despite disliking is to just force yourself to miss an event in-game. if you're the completionist type it's an extremely fast way to sever yourself from it

TL;DR Guess I'm uninstalling HD2 in solidarity now.
I'm a bit frustrated. If they show accountability, I will probably still go back because I love the game so much, but how can you be so goddamn tone deaf?
There is no middle ground that doesn't empower the theft machine. Fuck off with that.

very smart game devs: in this shooter, we don't want our players rushing into the fray, we want them to be smart and tactical. ensure every choice they make can lead to life or death, and learn to pick their battles.

That's what really gets me about these conversations, people who treat no as a challenge to be overcome, who try to wear people down, telling us it's inevitable, get used to it. There's an arrogance to the genAI proponent that I find truly detestable, it reminds me of those NFT bros stealing art...

Can we do with more nuance? Sure. I've gone to length before describing how AI generated assets can end up in games without even the devs knowing about it, because that shit is like digital asbestos and it's poisoning asset libraries.

I can understand asking for nuance in these discussions, but deliberately muddying the water by bringing up automation tools that people understand are not generative AI and asking for a middle ground is disingenuous. The nuanced position is that people are roundly rejecting the tech, respect that.
