Literally the first sentence

A few hours ago, reports surfaced that Larian are making use of generative AI during development of their new RPG Divinity - specifically, to come up with ideas, produce placeholder text, develop concept art, and create materials for PowerPoint presentations.


Assuming 5% of buyers leave a review, that would be 20,000 in sales. At a net unit revenue of $10 (after Steam’s cut and the payment processor), that would be $200 K net revenue.

A unit revenue of $10 means your product is going for ~15 base price. I don’t know about you, but I rarely buy stuff above $10 anymore. So like the other guy said, you’re looking at like half of that based on people buying during sales.


Stealing another comment’s update (thanks @[email protected] ), because catfriend1 explicitly says the new maintainer reseachxxl was willingly given the key material, which is how the update was pushed in the first place l:

Update: it seems that as of a few hours ago, Catfriend1 broke the silence and confirmed the transfer to researchxxl:

Therefore, I did hand over all my stuff to my inheritant @researchxxl inluding the com.github.catfriend1* apps, digital signing material and wish them the best to fulfill the mission of carrying on the Syncthing-Fork app. :woman_technologist: We have met in online gaming and developing modding code together for a level that tells the story of a research station attacked by some alien-like monsters. Two players do have to cooperate on fixing electrical devices, a low power emitting nuclear reactor and avoiding a bath in acid. If you stumble upon the game, say hello to us during our test sessions. :slightly_smiling_face:

It’s made by kde, and for kids, so I wouldn’t expect them to release as a TUI interface. Especially for mouse control or touchscreen training.


How does it compare to the first one? It was fun for a bit but quickly lost its charm for me.


It’s the platform that used to be MineTest, apparently


Lol, they willingly work with this fascist regime and others around the globe. Their silence is implicit consent, because a multi billion dollar company doesn’t get to cry fear in the face of the governments they willingly work with.

Stop defending corpos, they’ll gladly sell you to the government and tell your family they’re suuuuuper sorry you got nabbed but there’s nothing they can do.


Microsoft declines to comment

More like ‘Microsoft approves of this imagery’

Silence is consent, be it from approval or cowardice, the outcome is the same.


Then get off your ass and start and promote the petition you want to see instead of whining about what you do see.

Assuming you want to do more than just complain about shit on the Internet while actually doing nothing, that is.






Apparently those titles are as or more valuable than half of the entire catalog, how can you not be excited‽


It’s the Microsoft way. They hide security features that should be standard behind higher subscription tiers. It’s entirely bullshit.


The human employees may use AI to help speed things up or do repetitive/monotonous tasks, but without human oversight the AI will be functionally worthless for most things due to lack of knowledge over instructions. Add on the insecure and unoptimized code AI spits out and it’s gonna be fun watching the dumpster fire.


Sure, they’ll just now promote games where Nazis and religious fundies murder journalists and gender minorities



Hahahaha, Bitchford at it again!

I really liked the first 2 games in the borderlands series, but TPS and 3 are just… Not great. I really want to try the Tiny Tina game, but I’ve heard that it as well is not great.



I just use audiobookshelf for my podcasts. Self hosted, no apps, and it just works.


Who doesn’t love day one Should-Have-Been-In-The-Base-Game DLC?

Complete game, bonus money



Can’t risk hinting that the policies that they push directly lead to the material conditions that cause these shootings.


it’s a real shame MS see security architecture as a nuisance rather than a core responsibility of their business.

I’m pretty sure the reason behind this is that they treat backwards compatibility as a higher priority in a lot of cases. There are so many odd choices I see in my day to day that I can only explain away by backwards compatibility. It’s part of the reason you see them take forever to depreciate old and insecure protocols until they get an encouragement from a vuln hitting the news.


I have ‘for dogs’ on my radio already, but I might put the sausage one on too, that’s great



Honestly, if I had the skills I’d be doing that as an explicit fuck you to the draconian anticheat bullshit they force on everyone, because what better fuck you than showing all that effort was for naught, especially close to launch.

EA can go fuck themselves with the world’s biggest cactus.


Exist when they cared more and had less things to compare it to so that nothing can ever surpass the nostalgia of the game, regardless of quality.


When they say anything that “may damage the goodwill of the corporation”,

Looks like MasterCard is going to have to ban MasterCard because of all the damage they’ve done to MasterCard’s goodwill.


No, the rules don’t (that’s why it’s been fine for 7 years), and you used a derogatory term so cry harder about your downvotes.


Honestly, I don’t care if MasterCard doesn’t want to take responsibility. It was their rule and their intermediaries that caused the situation and they did not intervene when valve tried to reach out directly.

They are responsible through action or inaction, no matter how they try to deny it.


And only 3-4 million bought by scammers to resell! (/s?)


I couldn’t redeem on my phone until I opened Firefox instead of embedded chrome and log into GoG before I could get past the damned Cloudflare hell



Wouldn’t it be nice if the payment processors required more than being really annoying to get something classified as possibly illegal?


“We have investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing”


Conservative fundamentalists and blaming liberals for their own actions

Name a better duo


I picked one up a few years ago and I love it. When I have the opportunity, it’s so nice to chill in a waiting room and game instead of just doom scrolling.

Like the other poster said, I’m happy with the regular deck. Given there’s no news about the 2nd one, I’d grab it and enjoy.
