I have been meaning to write about this for a month or so now but it breaks my heart. AI has infected every hobby. Everything is noise. It's hurting existing communities and trudging through the slop is exhausting.
Every single hobby I love has has been infected by slopped up and unserious software. It's exhausting. aftermath.site/ai-slop-hobbie...
I’m enjoying the newest expedition in No Man’s Sky- it’s basically a retrospective on the game and all of its major content over time, with @nomansbsky.bsky.social doing commentary about them all, sharing little stories along the way. After all the depressing gaming news today, this was lovely.

I think if you needed any more evidence that the cuts are shortsighted and focused on cutting as deep and as fast as possible with little regard for the future, this is pretty definitive. That engine felt like magic in some spots. A colossal waste of talent and resources.
THIS STUDIO MADE THE FAMOUS IDTECH ENGINE AND YOU'RE FORCING THEM TO USE FUCKING **UNREAL**??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? FUCK YOU

Vampirium: 1997 🩸 is something I'm both excited to announce and can't wait for folks to check out! A vampire assassin immersive simulator with a strong aesthetic. If that sounds like something you could sink your teeth into, wishlists and retweets super appreciated! (And helpful.)

our friends @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social comin' in hot on what the the ESA should be doing as the game preservation crisis accelerates: "Everyone agrees this is a serious problem but the ESA has repeatedly opposed the efforts of cultural heritage institutions to reform digital copy protection laws."

the perfect jungle track is RIGHT THERE thanks to Uncharted 2, train and EEEEEVERYTHING
I have never forgiven Naughty Dog for not doing kart based spinoffs to Uncharted and The Last of Us like they did with Crash Bandicoot. YOU CAN CALL IT UNKARTED, THE NAME IS RIGHT THERE NAUGHTY DOG. YOU MAKE 3 GAMES AND THEN A KART RACER, THAT'S WHAT YOU USED TO DO

I'll save you a click- it's money. Hey- remember all those celebrities who went on Fallon to talk about the NFTs (that they were gifted)? How'd that turn out?
In just the past few weeks, several major Hollywood names have been openly talking about the AI projects that they have up until this point been working on quietly. How did this change come about?

It’s exciting to note they haven’t figured out exactly what’s causing the hallucinations and also that it’s like CONSISTENTLY little dudes.
With most psychedelic drugs, you never know what you're going to get. But this mysterious mushroom from China - without fail - causes users to hallucinate tiny people: crawling up walls, popping out from under furniture and marching under doors. www.bbc.com/future/artic...
