    I knew that "No AI used" is going to become a huge selling point for many products. And I think this is just the start.

    The reality is software engineers will use AI or will find themselves out of work as they won't have the skills to get hired.

    Customers may never know if AI is used as a tool in game creation but it will always be part of any software and development studio.

    Using AI for music or design assets is totally different from using it for the code base and blanket statements don't improve the situation

      "It's about saving the planet" - KeenFlame.

      It isn't about saving the planet. They never said it was about saving the planet, they don't think GenAI is destroying the planet (see excerpt) The saving the planet thing came all from you.

      It's about marketing, and it's working, here you are saying ecco the dolphin is saving the planet. Unless you were telling me the plot of ecco, and yeah I suppose, but that's a bit out of context. Haven't bought into the hype? What more hype is there than saving the planet.

      What's the most over hyped game you know? Where were people saying it was saving the planet? Great graphics, incredible gameplay, get to watch an acorn grow into a tree in real time... But saving the planet?!

        Annunziata has been talking about a new game for decades. I'm sceptical he'll produce a single pixel tout court.

            I made a post about thia exact thing a couple of weeks ago! I will give my money to people not using ai bullshit, and if theyre liars, they wont see a cent from me again. People need to stand up and have some damn principles about this.

              I'm so fucking pumped for new Ecco games. I loved the original on Genesis and it's about damn time we get some fresh stuff in the series.

              Even better with this statement

                  It really, really does.

                  This song (All Good Times, by MelonadeM) isn't from a game, rather it's one of the demo songs included with Furnace, a chiptune tracker. And it goes so fucking hard:

                                  The game can run faster than the refresh rate; you just won't be seeing more frames than 60 a second.

                                        The Yamaha chip (YM2612) really gave it a super grunge sound, perfect for games like Comix Zone.
                                        That said, it still felt at home with new age music like Ecco's.

                                        The fact that we had a synthesizer playing live music is still mesmerizing me.
