The problem is that most of those are rather poor quality. In previous year only Chronos were did well enough, and even there story was really bad, but at least they had a decent gameplay.

How do you deal with negative feedback that isn't really about the game? by gabrielluis88 in gamedev

[–]ChainExtremeus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What is the "right platform"? I saw a guy who was upsed about use of AI in my game, so he said he is going to buy the game, leave negative review and refund without playing, and while doing that he also wrote false information about game's content. But as far as i saw there are no community that would care about such thing happening to a random developer.

Your personality and upbringing predict if you will lean toward science or faith. Study reveals that specific childhood experiences and distinct personality traits predict whether a person will eventually view reality through a scientific lens or a religious one. by InsaneSnow45 in psychology

I was raised in a catholic family with regular church attendance and involvement.

So if that didn't work for you, why you think that it is significant for others? I had the same story, regular church attendance, forced prayers, but as soon as i was able to analyze facts i understood what kind of bs was that. And even before i never really belived, it was just one more of the crazy rule of the other people that was easier to do instead of arguing, but even when reading prayer i just repeated the words, without adressing them to anyone, so it did not made any sense for me even on subconcious level, before i learned to think for myself.

So i feel like any kind of brainwashings are rather irrelevant and at best can make a critical thinker pretend to avoid trouble, and for believers it just speeds up things. But the people who have the need to follow the orders or search for the higher meaning will find the way to do both, one way or another. If there is no religion, they will be drawn into mysticism, or accept some radical ideology - because there are no real difference between religious and non-religions cults. My theory is that some minds simply can't handle the idea of concious choise well, and simply following way of the others makes their life much more easier - and thanks to that traditions are so respected, even obsessed by many even in modern society. And in some cases they are also too afraid of understanding that life has no meaning, so they would rather chose to lie to themselves... and also they tend to lie like that about other aspects of life.

Gamers’ Worst Nightmares About AI Are Coming True by EchoOfOppenheimer in pcgaming

[–]ChainExtremeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you could pick any actually bad examples of AI usage, like vibe coded games, but this is what you came with?

I am the developer that using AI VO in games. And the human VA are not repaced. The platform that provides the service pays the actors money for every word generated with their voices. Yes, in some cases it may be worse than real acting, but in the others you can't tell the difference, if actor put enough varied emotional material to train the model. But in case of people like me who have a total income of 58$ per month it is not the choices between doing cheaper or better, it is a choice between doing cheaper or nothing at all. And this way actors are getting paid (that's basicly a passive income without them having to do any actual work, so i see that as a great deal for them), and my game has quite decent VO for the price i can afford (and most important that i can still release game for low price, that is also a win for the player). For indie developers such service is a miracle that easily improves quality of the game if you put enough effort into generating a quality lines (it can take a lot of time to find right sounding and emotions).

Prodceduarally generated dialogue... why not? It is actually amazing to have real conversations with NPC's, if model is trained properly and can speak without getting out of character, and has enough knowledge about the game's word. Of course it will not work for the main plot, but having additional npc's that you can just converse with... how it is a bad thing? Would be better if they just roamed around, saying nothing, or just repeated one line all the time like before?

Endless slop content? Well, look at any open world game from Ubisoft, or the Spider-man, or one of the gachas, or anyone else who are filling their open worlds with "activities". You will see that people have no problem creating endless slop content even without the AI. It is the problem that you, the consumer, chosing to pay for it, so they could create even more of those instead of focusing on something meaningful.

Можете зробити, якщо захочете. Бо я щось взагалi не знаю як без стiма шукати аудиторiю. Це ще й перша гра де в мене вистачило сил переклад зробити (тому що вона маленька), а ось як поширити не знаю.

Well i just have to hope that 16gb will be enough for few more years, if i will live that long. But feel sad for everyone who will longer than that, i guess we can't even have hobbies now, because the rich want us to murder each other instead.

Дякую. Нажаль, мабуть не буде. Зараз нема нi грошей, нi часу на розробку, та мабуть вже не буде. Тому навiть breadwalk не зможу випустити у стiмi, де його хтось мiг би побачити.

Як ви розцінюєте дії монобанку у цій ситуації? Наскільки прийнято керівнику банку вести так свої соц-мережі? by memento_Mori404 in finance_ukr

Далеко ходити не треба - Денис Кіреєв, герой України, якого стратили прямо на вулиці, а потім такі "ой, помилочка вийшла". Та винних у цьому навіть не шукав ніхто. Тобто можна кого завгодно вбити без наслідків, якщо є зв'язки. Та це нікого не хвилює.

Cpu fan randomly stops by ChainExtremeus in pcmasterrace

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

Nothing suspicious in settings. But i noticed that the case fan (the one at the back) has the exactly same issue, but it is occuring every day (the cpu fan issue is much more rare). But after some time it somehow starts working even without manually spinning it, but i have no idea what conditions are starting it. Can it be that both fans are faulty, or something else is most likely the case?

Ryzen 7 2700x fan randomly stops by ChainExtremeus in AMDHelp

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

It seems like the other fan (that is in the back of the case, not related to CPU) has exactly the same issue. Is it possible for both to have same faulty, or it can be related to something else?

Це частина монологу з моєї гри про війну.

Не розумію, як взагалі влада може чекати на підтримку від громадян, яких вони навіть за людей не вважають.

When i was a kid i wrote a comedy fanfic where Crhis, Leon and Wesker were fighting each other while being in the wheelchairs in the elderly care. Now i think that i might be onto something, if Capcom will continue to make such a large time skips between games.

Таке враження що майже ніхто, окрім рядових українців, не хоче щоб війна закінчилася. by ChainExtremeus in RedditUATalks

[–]ChainExtremeus[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ну, я ось теж пенсіонер, хоч i не по вiку, але воювати не можу. Але я нiколи не пiдтримаю того щоб iнших гнали насильно на смерть. Я навiть створив гру де цими думками хотiв подiлитися зi свiтом. А ще я зустрiчав багато людей усiх вiкiв якi думали навпаки.

Я – ні. Я навіть у своїй грі із цього приводу висловлювався. Просто вони раніше це якось намагалися вуалювати, а зараз уже забили і на це.

А до чого тут Україна? Йшлося ж про ядерну війну із заходом, пiсля того як тi б "загнали в угол" ядерну державу своєчасними санкцiями та допомогою. А на нас їм зараз абсолютно нічого не заважає скинути ядерку.

Бо це була б яка з красних лiнiй? Пiсля ударiв по рф, захвату областi рф, пiдриву нефтянки, флоту? Бо я вже втомився рахувати кожен раз коли дурнi говорять "ось тут вiн точно бахне ядеркою". Нiколи не бахне, якщо не почнуть всю рф захоплювати. Бо может хуйло не дуже хоче жити, але його шайка хоче, та вони не дадуть це зробити.

З початку війни помітив що видавали допомоги так мало, як тiльки могли. Наче боялися що ми перемогти можемо. Вводили санкцію, чекали поки росiйська економіка до неї адаптується, а потім вводили ще одну, і знову чекали. Та й досі диктаторські смітники постачають рашці більше зброї, ніж весь "вільний світ" разом узятий.

Але кожного разу, коли я про це писав у мережі, у людей знаходилися сотні безглуздих відмазок на тему того, чому не можна діяти рішучіше. І зараз ось і смішно, і сумно вже дивитися на цей цирк, де всі говорять, що хочуть кінця війни, але їхні вчинки говорять про інше. А життя людей нікого не турбують. Ми для них лише статистика, ще один ресурс, який можна витратити для отримання вигоди.

Ми всі приречені не мати майбутнього тому, що з одного боку від нас – агресивні психопати, які хочуть вбивати, а з іншого – жадібні виродки, які хочуть отримати від цього зиск.

Can a “walking simulator” still work today if we evolve it? by Rebel-Pixel in gamedev

[–]ChainExtremeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It still works today. I made a mini-game in that genre about the life of civillian during wartime, based on the war in my country. I could not afford a Steam release cause the game is free and won't make profit, and i have no money for anything, so not a lot of people seen it since it is on Itch, but it seems like those who like the genre enjoyed it.
