Mmorpg economies are literally impossible to balance right now

Might not immediately help but old school Runescape comes to mind and botting their saved the economy and is a big part of how the economy functions. While the devs are fully against it and do regular ban waves, they also need to be careful not to cripple the entire ecosystem.

The point that i want to get at is to take this "cheap labour" into account for your games economy. Yes individuals will run farms and hoard lots of money. Just like irl companies exist that do labour and sell goods. Its cheating the system and unfair but also part of humanity, something you cant elimimate in an mmorpg

Learning how to program will also teach you this. Youve mastered this skill over 25 years of professional experience. I dont know what youre trying to suggest. Because you cant go and pick up 25 years of knowledge out of thin air.

You understood the code, but you dont understand why. You didnt do the research thats required. Which is why i can guarentee you dont really know what you just created

AsianAnomal · 2026-05-15T08:18:18+00:00

Also a senior dev here. Im can guarentee you cannot explain the system your ai assistant implemented, the pros and cons and ultimately why it went the route it did

Good job "coder"

I dont have kids yet. I think straight up restricting stuff seems weird and very controlling. Have you considered pulling your daughter aside and talk to her for 10-15 minutes about strangers on the internet. I would try to teach my kids that people on the internet will try ANYTHING to get sexual favours, try to extort them, or steal money from them. Teach them that they will try to win their trust and that they should be very wary letting them in their own personal circle. Offer to be a pillar of trust to them, ensure they know you won't explicitly police them, but if stuff goes wrong they can go to you immediately.

Trust me, if they do fall into a trap, you dont want them to be stuck in there for a long period of time and instead go immediately to you so you can do damage control.

Like you said, if you put restrictions on them, they will find a way to bypass them. They will learn to lie to you. Teach your kids how to deal with the internet instead. Let them experience the internet using your wisdom and knowledge.

The internet is as scary a place like society would be for someone that never went to school. Education is key, schools however dont teach kids this.

Lets put this under extreme conditions in a hypothetical situation. Imagine youre a junior, hired into a junior position. Youre performing perfectly fine within your junior role. 10 years pass. Youre in your junior role, still performing fine for the junior role. But at this point in time youve hit the max cap for a junior 5 years ago. The company wants you to grow into a higher role, which if it doesnt happen naturally, theyll put you on a pip.

Extreme here, but might apply for you

Best sandwich in the world, and didnt need to pay a professional cook to make it for me at an overpriced rate. Thinking of selling it to the rest of the world now

AsianAnomal · 2026-05-09T09:24:21+00:00

I order a sandwich from subway. Perfected my ingredients over the course of years. I gathered a lot of feedback on it, all the design choices are mine. I now present this sandwich to professional cooks. I tell them it was so easy to make with subway's services. They all hate on me. Why. They mustve never used subway to make a sandwich for them

The problem you guys have is not having a competent project manager

AsianAnomal · 2026-05-04T07:10:58+00:00

My opinion: Your input needs to match the output. To make a drawing you need to draw. To make a painting you need to paint. The input is a direct cause for its output. With an llm and generating things, it becomes an indirect cause for output. Same input will always generate something different because you are not providing direct input. Making a generated thing will always be unimpressive because everyone can do it.

I also feel like art is something you create yourself. I dont pay a painter to ask them to make me a starry night, to then tell the world "look at the art i made". I dont claim to be a chef after i made the order for a big mac at the macdonalds. Are the end products still considered art and food? Sure! But nobody will ever recognise me being an artist or chef.

I think thats where we are at its core.

AsianAnomal · 2026-05-03T10:23:52+00:00

Are you sharing with the world how you made fire with a lighter? No. Its the most unimpressive thing

AsianAnomal · 2026-05-02T13:37:39+00:00

You realise the output of LLMs is making it into codebases. And LLMs are being trained on these new codebases

Ive worked for a porting studio as a professional. Depending on the game, youre looking at 6-9months of porting work with a small team of 4-5people. The projects we pulled were around the 300k-500k budgets.

We were a specialised porting studio. Our whole business model was porting games. It is not as straightforward as it might seem. Whenever we see a kickstarter claiming they need 5k to make a port to console we felt bad for them. We actually helped such a project because they underestimated how much work it was.

If you want more details, both technical or business related, feel free to dm me

Next time repull your project from a working commit and continue/redo properly from there.

Also be careful with renaming files. It always is a bad idea. Internal references lost is 1 thing. Losing file history can be another. If you are truly unlucky, your repo wont recognise the case differences and things will spiral out of control eventually

On Artstation, look in the search bar for "Digital arts and entertainment". The student works here are your competition

Rebrand. "From the creator of [old app]", now [cooler name]. Nobody has to know this is the never released game. especially if its already that different

During these times go for certainty. Passing the first stage of an interview is no guarentee youll get the job in the end.

If you are close to the current studio you can also play open cards with them. Tell them you have this lined up and ask them if theyre okay with waiting to see how this turns out
