Not a fan, but if it leads to a new OutRun...

Not a fan, but if it leads to a new OutRun...

The ironic thing is that OutRun 2 has been possible despite the hardware limitations exactly because every single asset has been placed and created with meticulous care.
Everything outside of view doesn't exist, most assets don't even have a "behind" side to save resources.

This approach is the polar opposite of what is going on here.

So yeah, it's not AI that will bring you OutRun 3

A dying shit company like Rovio bringing their shit into SEGA.

Which equals more job losses and less opportunities for junior people to enter the industry.

Generative AI * Roguelikes = Sweet Jesus what have we wrought

Gross.

AI is bringing us closer to an industry crash, which might be exactly what we need, long term.
