Support NeoGAF

I think that faster hardware, better tools, more future-focused game engines, and yes, AI will really help speed along development for future games while still pushing the visual envelope.


Being able to ditch baked lighting altogether some day and to leverage AI for potential geometry/textures/sound/etc.. generation could offload ~40% of development time for these AAA games.

Please remember: the key with astroturfing aritificial support is that you must do it sparingly across multiple threads, so as to appear organic. Obviously it feels good to make your quota before you sit down for breakfast, but you're just going to burn yourself out.

Try not hurting your brain with this revelation, but maybe I've mentioned TLOU so many times 'cause people were replying to my original post where i've mentioned it originally?

Just a thought

But sure, change it to RDR 2 if you want to, the result would be the same

ND and Rockstar, please DM me 'cause the checks arent coming and apparently some people are getting paid

There you go moving the goalposts again.

Nowhere in your original post did you say anything about graphics technology.

You literally replied with, "you talk as if TLOU is the pinnacle of storytelling..."

You're changing your argument now because you can't admit you were completely wrong.

It's a terrible look.

I can't help you if you lack the intelligence/patience to follow a discussion, and read what post I was responding to and the post the person who wrote it was responding to, to understand the full context of the conversation.

Graphics reached severe diminishing returns by 2015 at latest.

60fps base PS4 graphics are all we need to do 99.9% of the shit we need to do.

Better graphics are a nice to have but if they are too resource intensive then skip that shit and just make the game with 2015 graphics and many great studios actually do just that. Nintendo have done amazingly well without even reaching that sweet spot.

We understood this growing up and still do today. A graphics whore was always a thing. The artstyle, premise, gameplay, the writing, even the voice acting can be more important. The AI should be way more important but is often left shitty to focus on the graphics.

Says the guy who can't even follow his own discussion.

I am the fucking posts you were responding to from the beginning.

I'm the only one whose actually following the discussion, it seems. And I'm definitely the only one whose been logically consistent and not arguing in bad faith.

This guy.

God fucking dammit I made a point of not trying to find the thread.

Otherwise, I think the slow strangulation of the games industry is ongoing.

With so many people like you working in it, we can only hope so
