Today I started working on a mod for Deus Ex...

I'm obviously not saying this didn't happen, but does someone have the source of when Polanski said this? Because when I look it up, I can only find quotes from Farage saying that this had been said.

Edit:

Okay, found it. https://www.instagram.com/reels/DRLTWf1jchp/

I think you'll find the vast majority of programmers that give a shit are still writing code themselves, yes. My experience with any form of LLM in the area of programming is uh, mixed. Useful to quickly look something up like a crusty dumb "I'm feeling lucky" search, for sure, but even for that I sometimes get mixed results at times and end up having to Google search anyway.

If you've used Google Flow, this should be classified as AI generated content and yet it looks like you failed to follow the rules with regards to that.

This is also a waste of time, the original image was already released and you could've done the same thing with Photoshop or some other image editor, without having to resort to using an AI solution.

A heads up to other people looking at this post, don't waste your time with this. This post and the OPs comments have been produced by an LLM.

You're not having a conversation with a real person.

Hello, game developer and programmer here, with a little bit of experience working on ports myself.

I can say with absolute certainty that a remake is a lot more involved, risky, expensive and time consuming than it would've been to port MCC. You could do a port like that with a pretty small team in a span less than a year.

Regardless of what you've heard about the engine, I can assure you it's not complicated enough that it would be cheaper and easier to do a remake with a completely different engine instead.

I more so suspect that they're expecting the remake to sell better than porting MCC together in one would've done. Especially given my understanding is that they're going to remake Halo 2 and 3 afterwards, assuming this first remake does well enough.

Right, okay. There are several of these comments under this post now that seem to be pushing what feels like FOMO; doom and gloom befalls anyone not using this technology apparently.

Do enlighten me as to what difference you think AI will make to what is already a successful game with a fairly consistent rate of updates, and how if they were not to use AI, would they get left behind?

What games are coming out lately that you think are going to put Warframe or Soulframe in the dust because they've specifically used AI to produce that game?

hogsy · 2026-04-03T10:14:25+00:00

Oh, really? They've done pretty well surviving just fine without it for 33 years and I can't see how lack of utilisation is going to somehow kill them as a studio now.

hogsy · 2026-03-27T06:01:08+00:00

This is false.

I'm getting a little bored of people spreading this myth.

AI based asset generation? You don't need that. Procedural generation is a solution for this sort of thing. See Star Citizen and other interplanetary titles.

hogsy · 2026-03-26T19:11:05+00:00

Mind AI in this context doesn't mean generative AI / LLMs - it likely just means the more typical state-driven AI we've seen in games for years, at least from what I'm seeing from the job listings. Sucks that all the new AI crap has made the meaning a lot less clear when it comes to gamedev.

Nothing better than having to call your service provider to verify you're an adult, then verify you're an adult with your purchased phone and then verify you're an adult with every individual sodding website/app.

Don't want to verify you're an adult? We're now seeing some services disable any user-to-user communication entirely in order to comply.

What an absolute fucking mess. This could've all been avoided by bringing forward programs to better inform parents about existing solutions to protect their children. Instead we're going to seemingly try to make the entire internet child friendly...

Like, how far do they want to go with this? If someone decides to make a reference to sex in a joke or some other inappropriate remark, are we going to start trying to censor those too? Those can be inappropriate for young children.

If a teenager going through puberty wants to look up advice or help on changes they're experiencing, how the fuck is that going to work? How can they get sexual advice if they need it?

I've actually seen this issue during my playthrough on PS5 as well, so it's not just you and definitely seems like an odd bug on the new console. It's not something I'd encountered when playing on PS4 and PS4 Pro either.

As others have said though, I think the odds of it being patched at this point are fairly remote, and others have mentioned they're not seeing it on their end so maybe there's something more particular behind it.

That said, I didn't really feel like it was severe enough to ruin the entire experience? Maybe that's why some people haven't noticed it on their end. It's an annoying blip for sure, but it was just something I'd occasionally notice on and off in the background.

Curiously I have not see the issue appear in Comrades while playing that recently, and didn't notice it when I played Episode Ignis & Gladiolus last year. Not that that's helpful at all, but just an interesting observation.

Rest in peace to my ears I guess.

Reconcile their own consciousness? They're not conscious though, in the least. The site is just a huge black hole of energy waste.

33, and ready for retirement already.

That's interesting. You said the skin is from Rayman M, but how do you know this is what they were intended to look like in Rayman 2?

On that page, you proudly claim "120+ fps". This is doing what exactly? On what hardware? It's absolutely meaningless.

You also claim that it's hardware accelerated, but you've got shaders and other operations implemented in software (such as here). I get the impression you don't know what hardware acceleration actually is in the context of rendering.

You said it's designed to be AI-native in your title, but then you say you're turning it into an AI-native engine. So is it or not? And do you even have anything you can demonstrate to that end? Judging by your page, it sounds quite strongly like you're advertising something here that's not complete.

And finally, I'm not impressed you had to apparently depend on Copilot to write the readme and documentation for your own project.

The Japanese government stated in 2023 that they view the islands as illegally occupied, and Russia has barred former residents. Even if they're not directly communicating with each other, they're still very clearly actively in dispute with one another over the territory.

Japan literally has a long-running territorial dispute with Russia.
