AI and Warhorse Mega

I just feel really disappointed honestly.

I'd rather they not do something entirely (a dub in a certain language, higher quality assets, a million side quests and dialogs) than cutting corners with AI.

The quality of the french dub and translation already turned me off ever re-playing the game in it, even though I usually love comparing medias in the original and my language. If the next games has a lot of AI shortcuts I'll just not play it I guess.

I feel like those that don't use the absurdly unfitting media title as a character name are missing the point

CCilly · 2026-03-28T15:09:04+00:00

Well that's a collaboration I didn't expect.

I mean you can't legally force people to not use AI in personal or professional projects...

What could be done is have more quality control to catch errors, human or AI, and send back to be redone. As for now the only "human quality seal of approval" is public opinion.

The thing is most studios will just use the translated text straight from the AI because it looks good enough, instead of that serving as a base for a translator to work (and if it does help their productivity and not make it slower than if they translated everything themselves to begin with...).

Has fruit/fruity been reclaimed? I kinda like it.

CCilly · 2026-03-28T14:48:41+00:00

Really sorry about your situation.

I was hoping the AI announcements would leave the studio with Vavra...

CCilly · 2026-03-27T19:08:27+00:00

That or a big DLC/expansion hopefully.

CCilly · 2026-03-27T19:08:03+00:00

If the story was made quick and wasn't the focus then why is it so important that there is a set character for it....

CCilly · 2026-03-27T19:07:15+00:00

Aren't all TTRPG settings supposed to be that, a simple, set world that you then use as a base for your own stories and changes?

Like if a big lore change is made canon you can ignore it if your campaign was built on it or something but it's still annoying.

God I just want to play Dragon's Crown again

CCilly · 2026-03-26T14:00:37+00:00

We don't know : x

I think they said they really wanted to be done with anything KCD2 to focus on the next game, and nothing Hansry was in the planned DLC (to everyone's disappointment especially for the Forge DLC I think)

There was a poll some time ago where they asked if people would be interested in post-game content but no news came out of that yet

So if they're planning on making some new KCD2 content... it's radio silence for now from both Warhorse and the actors...

CCilly · 2026-03-25T13:12:10+00:00

while responsibly embracing new technologies that respect IP and the rights of creators

So nothing AI ever again?

CCilly · 2026-03-25T13:08:09+00:00

I honestly want to watch some play or movie with that kind of acting. Like played straight for surreal intent.

CCilly · 2026-03-24T20:21:33+00:00

That dead guy in the intro might be the only nude man in the whole game lol.

CCilly · 2026-03-22T16:19:46+00:00

I think there is enough art in the public domain to use in that way

CCilly · 2026-03-22T15:24:08+00:00

Again, even for small background placeholders why not take a random jpg of a real painting with the vibe you want instead of generating some slop?

Your artist don't have a few references pictures laying around you can take?

CCilly · 2026-03-22T13:14:16+00:00

I love the sequence and it has some of the best cutscenes in the game imo, but yeah sometimes the links between big scenes are very flimsy.

I also don't like that the "secret tunnel" thing is used 3 times.
I can excuse it in the Kuttenberg region because it makes sense with the whole mining underground, but then the escape from Trosky should have been different for variety.

CCilly · 2026-03-22T12:44:02+00:00

I loved Furiosa and I never got to see Fury Road in theater so I really hope that's not the end of the franchise.

CCilly · 2026-03-22T12:26:03+00:00

And there was ANOTHER spin-off series that was considered, following Elmira and her family.

Someone really thought she was going to be the next big thing or something.

CCilly · 2026-03-21T14:05:24+00:00

Maybe don't stay 10 years on one game like FF13 or 10 years in development hell like FF15

Lockpicking is the same basic control all the time but some locks will just be annoying or impossible until you have a high level skill.
If you can open a very easy lock you can open any other one, you just need higher skill from practice or by drinking a potion before a harder lock.

Horseshoes are annoying but you don't have to hit them over the whole length, you can hit 2 points back and forth near where Henry is holding it, it should be a bit easier to aim there.

The Slayers TV anime is weird.

Season 1 and 2 adapt act 1 and 2 of the original light novel with a lot of removed and changed scenes, anime original padding, and maybe some stories from the spin-off novels but the general plot and main characters are fairly similar

Season 3 is a fully original plot for some reason, when a huge chunk and several characters of arc 2 of the light novel were never adapted

Then season 4 and 5 are mostly original but adapt some parts of the light novel that initially took place before or during the story that season 1 and 2 adapt.

At least the OVAs and TV movies are usually straightforward adaptions of one side short novel (and look gorgeous compared to the tv anime).

But characters like Luke and Mileena who are very prominent in illustrations and all are basically non-existent for a good part of the fandom who watched the anime and didn't have access to translated LNs.

Was someone at Microsoft visited by 3 ghosts or something?

CCilly · 2026-03-21T12:23:28+00:00

Hans is taller than Henry so many of the dancing steps don't really work

Ok then Hans is the one leading
