I wish Valve had some sort of monetary incentive to fix this. If this happened to the cash cow that is Counter Strike this would have been fixed already. It’s sad to see this going on especially with the resurgence TF2 has been having lately.

“hey christians! do you sin? now you can buy your way out of hell!”
What’s the fucking point of court if the worst corporations don’t even have to show up? That’s just fucking stupid.
Just look up Sam Altman on job replacement my dude. He doesn’t give a single fuck about anyone and just keeps going for the sake of progress. All he does is avoid questions and use buzzwords just like the rest of them. He sounds like Elon Musk 10 years ago before he stopped trying to hide the crazy.
You should watch some of the interviews with these non profits. They sound like cartoon super villains.
Two morally bankrupt companies pooling their resources to make the most controversial and often shady tech we’ve seen in years. What could go wrong?
I mean, every company making AI these days is morally bankrupt. It’s just the idea of any of them teaming up in the first place that gives me a bad feeling.
Honestly, as a dude, I’m 100% down for male birth control. Can’t wait.
I’m a PC gamer and have been since I was a kid. It’s literally my number one thing I do when I have free time is get on some games and hang with the boys. It’s a big part of my life.
As game companies go, I don’t trust Microsoft, EA, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Bethesda, Sony, Epic Games… It’s a long list. Valve is the only company I even kinda trust (Which isn’t even that much these days). If Microsoft bought Valve I’d probably never buy a PC game again. Because all the companies selling them would be companies I don’t wanna give money.
But it’s not true that they were buying it so it’s a moot point. Just wanted to rant. :)
Honestly, I love windows 10 and windows 7 even more. I have had very little complaints with them and I miss 7 every day. But when support runs out for Windows 10 I’m switching. It seems every single day they come up with another stupid plan or “feature.” Whether it’s AI that’s barely helpful or forcing me to use their software and services, I’m exhausted with the obnoxiously aggressive tactics to get me to use them.
It’s almost like LLM’s aren’t the solution to literally everything like companies keep trying to tell us they are. Weird.
I honestly can’t wait for this to blow up in a company’s face in a very catastrophic way.
I can’t wait for the article saying how we’re gonna solve world hunger with AI.
I get that. But at the same time speed running is stale as a concept. I feel like it’s just the nature of the genre since there’s only so much you can talk about. I love speed running but I could never watch someone stream it for hours on end.
Edit: This was meant as a response to another comment but I goofed. I do love this video. Oops lol
Can never go wrong with summoningsalt. He’ll get you invested in things you never knew you had any interest in. If you want a good example of that check out his video on Wii Sports speed runs. If that sounds like something you aren’t interested in, give it 10 minutes and you’ll be in so deep you’ll start thinking about getting into speed running yourself.
Brings me back to when EA was buying up companies just to milk them until there’s nothing left to give and then close the studios. It’s okay though. It’s not like these companies had employees with bills to pay, livelihoods, families, bills again, etc. it’s not like there are actually people behind the games we play that are struggling just as much as we are. That would be madness!
Good boy.
While I agree over-breeding of pets is a very messed up practice, they already exist in the here and now. Might as well be their friends and tell them they are cute since they are here.
Besides novelty, the majority of AI I have used has just added extra steps to my work process instead of making it easier. Can we just stop already? It’s not a tool for literally everything and I’m tired of companies thinking it is.
Well, I have two of those. I guess I’ll just go fuck myself than, huh?
I’ll just go play the first Cities Skylines. I didn’t have many complaints with that one and still love it.
Except for traffic. That shit is a nightmare.
While I agree with a lot about what he mentioned. The thing that always irks me when people talk about this is the cost. I understand that there are a lot of factors going into this that make it more expensive to make games. Like inflation, new technology, employee wages, and more actual work. All of these have gotten more expensive and that makes sense. But at the same time I’d say 60% of AAA games that have come out within the last 4 years have been anywhere from mediocre to hot garbage. You dump millions upon millions of dollars into games that nobody wants to play (with a few exceptions, of course) and act all surprised when you don’t make $300 million back. You can’t tell me you didn’t know, at any point in development, that Halo Infinite wasn’t going to sell like hot cakes. Nobody could be that oblivious. There was a good game somewhere in there. The “higher ups” decided to fuck everything up. And those “higher ups” include you, sir.
It’s crazy how fatal falls can be for ANYONE. Seriously. I’ve seen people fall off a 4 foot ladder and have it be fatal. Or slip on ice. Or just trip on something. I’m also a kinda tall clumsy person so I think about this a lot too. Plus I’ve taken OSHA classes on fall protection which only made it worse. :)
