I don't follow Call of Duty news, and just go blasted an ad for a new "Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4"
Is this series stuck in a timeloop? maybe someone should help them
with sloppy (but convincing enough) AI vibeclones on the rise, developers now face a future in which a steady stream of pre-release videos, demos, and playtests—the only reliable way to promote and build community—could be their game’s undoing
anybody knows of a cool tool for blender to apply vertex color to vertex selections (not painting) as well as vertex alpha and being able to properly visualize both color AND alpha in the viewport?
And not vibe coded 😩
In the same day Epic announced a complete overhaul of anticheat on Linux and a buggy launcher that they claim is vibe coded. aftermath.site/epic-anticheat...
The fantasy that you will sell 12K+ units at $7.99 for that slop is downright comical! There is NO world where a game as bad as this do these numbers
When will people realize its all a pyramid scheme...no one is creating any value or getting richer except ppl selling you the slop machines
got this email from unity just now, enabling one of my asset pack to be scrapped by their unity spark by default
@unity.com , don't do this????? should be opt in not opt out
If you have free asset store packaged, unity automatically added them to their AI "spark" thing
In typical LLM fashion, it’s opt-out instead of opt-in! You can manually remove them (and you should)
Watching this video really comforts me in the idea that LLM vibe Coded games are not going make good game any time soon
this shit is just hype for shareholders, nothing more

1) LLM companies illegally trained their models on stolen data
2) Vibecoders use LLM to create copies of adobe softwares
If OpenAI/Anthropic stealing is OK... It's all fair game then? Or will copyright and ethical sourcing become the most important thing for companies like adobe?😌
I can see vibecoders doing more and more stuff like this which is "legal" but build with an unethical tech, because it will force companies to face the big contradiction that's coming
Similarly: If the PS5 vibe-coded emulation is ready for GTA VI, it'll probably create an interesting situation
But I think as usual, only big tech will benefit from all of this, while everyone below (including awful companies like adobe) will suffer the consequence of supporting this tech that was build and can only function by stealing data, consuming absurd amount of energy
Je regarde ca de loin depuis le Canada, et je suis dégoûté par les violence policières en France et la façon dont les médias traitent l'info... Beaucoup de respect pour les lycéens et leur revendication légitimes!
I've also got a heap of music on my personal Bandcamp that'll funk you into the next millennium
90% off my full discog too if you want literal days' worth of hot tunes 💖
Support on there helps me loads and I appreciate it greatly!

A survivor with a Windows XP style and its SO GOOD
there are so many great gameplay ideas in there, and the theming is so well done, this is probably going to be my favorite survivor after Vampire survivor!

when you find an incredible looking game an you see a no-ai blurb at the end of the description... hell yeah
Almost wish steam would make a specific badge for AI-free games now
Its pretty good so far! Feels like a very standard action game with upgrade BUT with the great splatoon mechanics and weapons
Not ground breaking but extremely well done (so far!)
When you’re filfthy rich to the point you pay people to remember basic personal information like address and phone number for you
Billionaires really live in another dimension
Ezra Klein asked Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang about AI making kids worse at math and reading. Huang’s reply: “Does it matter?”
Then he said he doesn’t know his own address or phone number. “We’re going to lose some fine intellectual dexterity.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/23/o...
v1.91 out for Steam!
Fixes a bunch of small issues, and most important replaces a duplicate rodent picture with a new exclusive gerbil picture
Mac/Switch/Itch coming soon
I've started watching Spider Man Brand New day, and they have the equivalent of yellow paint for games but for movie:
There is an ai-character voice that explain you whats happening on screen to make sure you understand it
[SPOILERS] Example 1: Spider man's senses are dialed up to 11, he goes to the roof and the cinematography makes it clear that he's overwhelmed
Peter's AI assistance: "Alert! Senses are overloaded."
WE GOT IT ITS OK!! There are other example of this after
[SPOILERS] Example 2: Spider man's eyes turns black, become angry and everything... AI comes to say "Warning: Arachnid hormones increasing"
We got it without you explicit saying it💀
Conclusion: It's Hollywood's yellow paint
For players/developers with a steam game not launching on MacOS27 (OS Error 0):
typing this in a terminal seems to fix it:
softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license
Feel free to share, as it seems to impact a lot of players, but there is no official fix from Apple (yet)
