There’s a difference between coding your game in high level code + making all the other stuff like assets, levels and music
and
asking thiefgpt togenerateplagiarize assets and music for you. - Comment on Valve dev counters calls to scrap Steam AI disclosures, says it's a "technology relying on cultural laundering, IP infringement, and slopification" 6 days ago:
I don’t think LLMs will survive for so long

Yeah it’s crazy how people who don’t like a tool don’t use it

Yeah, they don’t understand that the process of learning, of making mistakes and hitting dead-ends as you create your work of art is fucking important! Failures can lead to unexpected changes to your initial idea, and they might improve your work or at least make it iconic (the classic example of the fog in Silent Hill that was added to offset a technical limitation). You can’t have that if the entire process of creating a piece is automated.

I don’t know a single self-respecting artist who would use AI though. Artists are literally the most harmed people by the LLMs lol.
Other than that, I agree with what @spawn7586@lemmy.world said - if you don’t know how to code, LLMs will generate the most unplayable game in existence.

YEAH
KILLPUSH THE SKELETON!!!Here’s a screenshot for my first “game” on LOVE2d:
imageThe creature just follows your cursor and can teleport if you press a button lol

Because AI-gened voices and graphics are terrible in their own right. They’re super unnatural and casually wander into Uncanny Valley.
Also I’m not paying for a product that wasn’t human-made. I don’t want to support those who waste their time talking to a chatbot like a moron.

Indie gamedev existed for years before AI. You can just sit down and make a game. And if you don’t care enough to actually work on it, why would people even spend their money on “your” product?

It doesn't help that all of the OG Doom developers except J. Carmack left id software years before Doom 3. No wonder it's so different from its predecessors.

And darkness. Thanks for the most useless flashlight in history!
And Doom 3 isn't even that fun gameplay-wise...

I recall having trouble killing Artorias with spells back when I reached him for the first time, years ago. From Software loves boosting magic defenses for enemies and bosses from DLCs for some reason... My magic-only run in DS2 has stalled when I tried to beat DLCs - it was waaay too grindy for me.

(Counts) Yes.

The problem with pyromancy is that it is low on uses - and there's so much fodder in the Archive, I'm afraid it will feel more like playing Resident Evil in Dark Souls (= avoiding most enemies because ammo is too precious).

I mean any magic, not just sorcery, yeah. I want to believe it's doable.

This is why I absolutely loved classic Doom: finally a shooter with no cutscenes, dialogues or stupid animations that blocks my sight. Neither Doom 3 nor modern Doom are capable of achieving this power!

The sad part is, video games age so much quicker compared to other forms of media. It's been only 20 years but Morrowind already so clunky that even those who like the game would rather play literally any other RPG over it. 2d games suffer less from this but the lack of accessibility options, unusual controls, technical limitations and their influence on mechanics (e.g. life system) are all still a big problem that gets only worse with time.
Retro games can be enjoyable but whether they are worth the struggle is questionable.

I agree that I can't talk about genres I'm not familiar with, like platformers and action games (which I guess are the best contenders for retro gamers). With that said, even when I played through widely acclaimed as one of the best RPGs - Ultima 4, I still couldn't enjoy it. I'm curious how common this experience with popular retro games.

Of course. I am a big fan of the original Doom games (Heretic and Hexen included) myself. But still, I feel like these are exceptions, not the rule.

Finally got around to playing Ena Dream BBQ. Damn, this game sure has charm! Playing it in short sessions because it's very tiring to play (too hyperactive).
