Good news! You’re allowed to skip them and instead play the hundreds to thousands of older games you’d surely love, but that slipped under your radar at the time. Plenty to hold us over until publishers and studios learn their lesson.
There will always be passionate developers eager to put down the work and make good games. There will be a lot of shit they will try to shovel down our throats, but it’s just as easy to ignore it.
I think it will go the way of the NFT. People who don’t understand tech will hype it beyond belief and then the actual developers will go “this is useless” and not use it.
Well, maybe not exactly like NFTs because NFTs were actually useless while AI looks like it might have some actual niche use.
honestly for most people i feel like AI has already a solidified use, “the magic thing that answers all your questions and generates pretty pictures*”
compare that to NFTs which had strictly no use for the average person. i think what we’re seeing with AI is quite different
will the hype maintain itself when the AI bubble bursts, the VC money dries up, free options get removed and paid options significantly ramp up in price? that remains to be seen
*(the fact that the answers and pictures are often garbage is irrelevant. as long as they’re good enough often enough, it has value to many people)
Once the VC funding is gone and AI companies need to become profitable, I don’t see myself as an individual paying for some LLM, at best I’d try to setup a free LLM like deep seek on local hardware, but maybe corporations might pay for AI access for their employees if they think it provides some benefits, even if that’s not really true in the long run
We are going to have a new generation of games that are really gonna suck!

If it’s AI, don’t buy.

I don’t really mind if AI is used in a crafty sort of way. But let’s be honest here, that never happens.
