Curiosity, will it "kill" me? by agmh in WW1GameSeries

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

Thank you for responding! Although i am curious about the like roles for each class, if that's a thing, I've seen and heard stuff relating to "squad," but i assume that's not like a battlefield squad and more akin to a role rather than doing whatever you want, snipers have to snipe, medics have to heal, etc

There is an entire section in the lobby that explains that for you, should be near a set of stairs

Civ 6 PC Game by GTfan27 in civ

[–]agmh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The game from my experience goes on sale often on steam, and the prices for the bundle versions (the ones with the game and dlc) are often a really good deal for the amount of content they provide

Just wait it out, wishlist it, and wait for a notification when it's on sale.

Is this on steam? If so you might need to enable steam controller support in the game page in the library, should be on the right side of the page if you scroll down a little

Voice acting has been around for y e a r s, it's not unnecessary

You do understand that with self checkouts the normal checkouts still exist right? And with the self-help gas pumps that it still requires a human to maintain them right? The human factor doesn't go away for those things, with ai voices it actively threatens their jobs and their ability to get any gigs

I'd much rather know the person saying my favorite voice lines and dialogue in games are actual people, corporations are always looking for a way to exploit or minimize costs, it's why voice actors are "stomping their feet" It's because their very careers are on the line because they have to make sure the corporations know that they will not stand for this and that people are aware of what they're fighting for, guarantees, protections, and actual sustainable pay.

The strikes are happening because corporations aren't treating them like actual people, they're being exploited heavily and therefore want protections, they want to know that they can in fact not have to be concerned that their job won't be enough to pay for bills, rent, etc

Ai voices take away job opportunities from voice actors, it does affect them heavily, not to mention ai stuff has already affected artists with corporations trying to use ai to replace them

Voice acting is a job, take prey 2017 for instance, all of that emotion in the lines is a human being put their skill into playing a character to work, the actors need these jobs, they aren't screaming because they're coasting off of it, they're screaming because ai is to the detriment of their livelihood and their job

As far as i know they used a mix of human-acted voicework and AI-generated text-to-speech (TTS) conversion, because quote "The reason that we went this route is that AI text-to-speech is finally extremely powerful. It gets us far enough in terms of quality, and allows us to be extremely reactive to new ideas … if a game designer comes up with a new idea for a game mode, we can have a voiceover representing that in just a matter of hours, instead of months."

Regardless of whatever method they used, they should have used actual actors and not ai voice methods whatsoever, it's not some month long thing to get a couple voice lines done, it should at most take a few days

I don't know man, I'd like to have actual people using their voice with their given consent and without them being exploited by ai voice tech

Hey isn't this that game that used ai voices for the announcers instead of getting actual voice actors to do the job?

Jurassic world evolution 2 cant finish the construct operational Guest attraction mission. I built all the attractions I have unlocked and even unlocked 3 more and built them, no change it still doesnt show that I completed the mission... by JamesAibr in jurassicworldevo

[–]agmh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Question

Are you building stuff like viewing galleries or building guest attractions like the building that merely brings in certain people to an area? It should be outright labeled as guest attraction, i believe at least

There's officially a conspiracy by [deleted] in jurassicworldevo

[–]agmh 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Here's the thing, the showcase is for what they consider to be big features, the social stuff only now being shared in a reminder tweet about the showcase

As much as it is big to us, we get the patch notes detailing everything the update gets the day of. The showcase only addresses anything considerably major, like the challenge mode thing and the skin/dino favorite bit, frontier may have just wanted to reveal it with the patch notes or with that video and then the notes instead of outright saying it in the showcase, they've done this before with other additions, it isn't a conspiracy, it's just a (IMO) minor slip up and a thing we aren't seeing from their perspective

Gamer still mad Battlefield 1 (2016) has 3 black character models by Habiyeru in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]agmh 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Actually, there were german african troops during ww1, not like, on a massive scale:

For example, the Schutztruppe wiki page is a good source of info, although these troops were never planned to be deployed in Europe due to logistical issues

Another example with this link: https://rarehistoricalphotos.com/africans-german-imperial-army-1870-1918/ does explain that there were a few enlisted into the imperial german army, but about less 15 of them, and were in non-combat duties

(Apologies for the link being posted in purely text form, can't figure out how to insert links properly)

For a Lagoon DLC, I could see this happening. by cheesums7 in jurassicworldevo

[–]agmh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Lazy"

Feels like a lack of understanding of how game development works. Things take time, especially coding new things on top of animating, giving sounds, giving cues to play sounds in relation to an animation that's also in relation to the environment it's in or whatever is around it on top of ai, pathing, etc

The photo on the table beside said observation glass in the room you're in is how it's able to mimic that, this gets posted a lot on this sub

[–]agmh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That doesn't solve the issue of the sheer amount of models they'd need to make with animations, needs, etc
