@gkrnours @eniko they can just do what capitalism has been doing for the last 15 years (or more, that's just around the point it's noticeable to me!) and rehash the same thing over and over and over and over again forever!

"Western" culture has been doing a 1980s revival for longer than the real 1980s have lasted

@hazelnot @eniko yeah but rehashing the same thing as before requires to pay people who can do the same thing as before or compromise on quality. Using AI to make games is an attempt at the later

@gkrnours @eniko Yeah but if you're a capitalist you don't care about the quality as long as people keep buying it, especially if it saves you money

The thing some people are worried about (other than the fact that a lot of artists are going to lose their livelihoods over this of course) is that this is going to become the only kind of stuff available unless you're willing to stray quite a bit away from the mainstream, especially with huge corporations constantly pushing smaller competitors out of the way/buying them and making it harder and harder to find and access stuff that isn't from them

@hazelnot @eniko I think full AI game will remain a niche because the quality will be too low for people to keep buying. Game are a feedback loop of progress and reward. If you traverse a corridor, look behind yourself and it's a whole new thing, it's not a place where you can progress, it's a fever dream. Which sounds interesting but not battlefield interesting.
I hope the industry actor manage to survive the AI craze :(

@gkrnours@mastodon.gamedev.plac Everything is enshittifying without losing out on profits, I'm not convinced the same thing won't happen with all kinds of art, from music to movies to video games 🥲
