oh yeah, private games are perfect. also worth mentioning that the campaign is basically a Saturday morning cartoon but it pulled ugly tears out of my scrunched up face like the goddamn exorcist removing a demon

Armored Core is famously serious and artistic but it lacks very engaging multiplayer. Basically just 1v1-4v4 deathmatches but they can be as interesting as you are creative with the mech customizations

amazing game, great robots. Just know that it’s also a fps for meth addicts and the multiplayer is essentially a series of death screens until you can pick up all the tech everyone is using

is it really not cheaper to just stop paywalling parts of the game?

not hard to do, I played it muted and with the captions off to spare myself from all that quirked up millennial dialogue.

pretty good like that, honestly

I just linked two old accounts to a private sub to test this. they’re not disseminating the Ai summary tool to everyone so I can’t tell if it will read deleted posts or my Redacted comments.

just a funny thing on the side though. the test post I made on my private sub got shared twice and viewed 26 times. whatever that was about

getting ready for my next fell-for-it-again award 🧛

who is actually buying these? I thought having disposable income would preclude someone from thinking a live service grind that’s dead in a couple of months is a good use of time

man these canaries keep dropping dead for some reason, I’m not sure why we had them

why would anyone work in that industry?

video games in their current market might be one of the only areas that I’m tentatively okay with ai work.

Stasis Bone Totem had some hideous applications of it but the studio was using it to fill out supplemental art for puzzles and items that could’ve eaten up their budget. it kind of gives smaller studios a way to punch up when their vision is exceeding their budget for things like piles of gore on the ground or bundles of wire.

that said I only make that particular defense under late stage capitalism which is proving to be poisonous to art. not to mention that for every Bone Totem there’s 108 employees that Ubisoft is going to lay off because they think ChatGPT can do their job

Could have been worse. My first initial on reading the title was that some enshitification factory like Fandom. com or Microsoft had bought it

edit: wait nevermind. Chosen apparently is a literal enshitification company
