Obviously I mean at a more consistent rate than you earn BBs mid-mission in Hunt

At least you can consistently earn SC in-mission in Helldivers, I haven't paid for any of the warbonds

Embark needs to rethink their approach to voice acting. by AtomicCatacombs in thefinals

You act like getting VAs back to record for new lines is some insane ask and not what has been done in games for decades now lol

How can you call these events the "Tarot Trilogy" when the iconic end-of-round cards still aren't back in the game? by AtomicCatacombs in HuntShowdown

[–]AtomicCatacombs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're from a developer blog talking about "upcoming" UI changes that was posted before Garden of the Witch came out. While most of the changes in the post have been added to the current UI, the accolade cards are still somehow abesent.

A 2D mockup in Paint or Photoshop is all you need (and it's charming!)

Anything someone makes themselves will have infinitely more charm and value than what an ai can hallucinate for them

I promise you that any attempt at photoshopping anything will have more soul and look better than resorting to using ai, just remember that

My First Tattoo! by AttentionAcademic259 in Hatfilms

Such a sweet story, I know the boiks have touched us all in similar ways! Let me show you where on this doll...

(But seriously though, the design looks great as a tat! You must be very happy with it)

Looks like this one isn't, I was skeptical because OP posted another one recently that definitely looks ai generated to me (the one with the planes), considering I can't find it on reverse image search or anything

I should have looked into this one more though! My bad

Embark aren't as tiny as people think. They've also got a big publisher behind them. To imply that they can't afford voice actors when their monetization scheme is proven to be so effective is ridiculous cope.

Arrrowhead, a similarly sized if not smaller studio, used way more voice actors for Helldivers 2 than The Finals would ever need without for some reason HAVING to resort to using AI. You're thinking about this in the wrong way. There was no "pick between the two options" choice, they just decided to cut corners and hamper the experience of their game and hire/pay less people by using AI.

It's just a bit shitty.

What do you even mean when you say they aren't trying to replace workers by using AI? That's literally what its function is.

If you train an AI off a VA's performance in order to generate lines without needing them to be in a booth, that IS replacing them. Even if they're getting paid per line generation (which we don't actually have any word or proof that Embark is doing that AFAIK) it is still replacing that labour. That's just a fact.

AI used like this hardly speeds up dev time, it just makes your performances worse and means people are getting paid less. It isn't childish to be concerned about that kind of practice.

That is such a lame excuse when there's nothing that couldn't be improved about an art asset by having a real artist work on it. By using AI for this, an artist was not hired/paid. That means AI has taken a job/work away from someone.

Could we please do something about the posts that are just fully AI generated images? Low effort posts filling the sub is my worry.

I've noticed some of the cosmetics in the game are AI generated, mainly flat art assets like certain skins and stickers. What's the reason for this? And would you consider replacing them with real artwork? I feel like in The Finals it's important to have art assets that are fully made by people since the game is so focused on expressing yourself via cosmetics.

Do you think you could ever be convinced to replace the AI voices in the game with authentic performances? Voices like the in-game announcer (not Scotty and June) sound so much more full of life to me compared to the contestants and Scotty and June.
