using AI at any stage of game development is loser shit but the excuse of "oh we only used it during the concept art stage" is always insane to me. concept art is literally the fun part. you asked the robot to do the fun part for you. do you also need the robot to eat dessert for you
I want to see Microsoft itself collapse while the studios it essentially holds at gunpoint are able to get away (relatively) unscathed. I would rather have a games industry with Double Fine, Ninja Theory and Compulsion in it than ever see an Xbox again

disassembled this chromebook yesterday to put linux on it, my hand still hurts from trying to pry apart the clips on the bottom, but it works and was fun! took like 2 hrs because the computer was quite steadfast in holding itself together, despite my best efforts
Every now and then I think about UFO 50 and am reminded that it is one of the best indie games of all time. I don't even hesitate to say that. There's no 'Except' or 'But'. It's just a stone cold classic that really deserves to be ten times as well known. And it's still relatively unknown!
