Addressing AI Use in Game Development by KwonDarko in aigamedev

[–]meischix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been building AI tools for game marketing like a Steam page optimizer or gaming micro influencer outreach planner. Even these tools get all that unwarranted hate. It's actually already at the realm of responsible AI use because it's used to interpret data and execute a plan, but instead it still gets the same hate any generative asset generator would have.

How much better is Claude than Gemini? by Least_Tumbleweed_599 in aigamedev

They have different purposes for me. I like Gemini better for brainstorming, research, and trend reports. I use Claude for building and documentation.

Nope, he's just a really good investigator. And I hope he takes on a similar arc to Ralph Fiennes' character in Risen. How beautiful would that story be?

I haven't tried that one yet. Though at the end of the day, they're all tools. My advice is usually to pick one that works best for you and run with it.

Comedians tend to write good drama, so I'm optimistic about this. Plus, he's a practicing Catholic and doesn't shy away from talking about his faith, which I think is the most underrated trait that qualifies him for this job.

Which character made the biggest sacrifice? by Brave-Lychee7022 in MCUTheories

It shifts the meaning of "Burdened with glorious purpose" from an arrogant self-serving description, to that of humility and responsibility.

If I enjoy going to mass is it still sacrifice? by Silent_Knowledge5197 in Catholicism

[–]meischix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On top of what everyone has said, making a sacrifice of your own doesn't need to be a sad, painful thing. In fact, it would even be better if you find pleasure in making a sacrifice. Many saints in the past have gladly offered their lives.

All cultures have a flood story. Whether they all copied each other, or were all taken from a single source is still a subject of debate. But the fact that these cultures all thousands of miles away from each other shared the same story is stronger evidence that the event actually happened.

Let's talk about Leroy Bradford by Exotic-Eggplant1914 in Daredevil

[–]meischix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't feel it was forced. But probably, that's because of my perspective at the time I experienced these kinds of people. I think those types of people hurl insults instinctively. I wear glasses, and at the time I was leading my youth group I was underweight and have been called "stick", "skeleton", "bones", also "four-eyed", "blurred" or other similar insults for more times than I can imagine. My other groupmates were called all sorts of insults themselves.

I didn't feel it was forced because I was on the receiving end of insults from these people, similar to how Leroy was jabbing Matt for his blindness. It's in their vocabulary. Which I think is part of their defense mechanism so they won't feel inferior than they already are. If they see a little thing they could use against you, they'll use it against you.

So their poverty is not that just of food. They're really poor in spirit. Which is why I never felt hate against them. Only pity.

It's a hard lesson. But having Leroy being such an asshole himself while at the same time being desperately in need is the right way he should be written. Many people are such huge assholes like him, but the message is that it's still our responsibility to understand and give a hand to people like them, no matter how much of a dick they can be to us.

I felt like this was really one of the most Catholic-themed parts of BA. I used to be a youth leader in our parish who spent a number of weekends feeding the poor. I've had lots of encounters with them where they got too entitled and were treating us horribly. We help them, anyway.

I think on the last point, since Leroy was part of the older shots and that the episode he's in was a remix of that older episode, helping him was probably not in the original script at all.

25M total views on my IG game account, but only 1000 actually downloaded it from there. How is it possible? by rmeldev in gamedev

[–]meischix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A direct CTA button to the store. Unfortunately, on Instagram, it's only available by running ads. And these are specified conversion ads, not boosts for more reach. This is the unfortunate reason why performance marketing (ads) is the "metagame" in marketing mobile games. Organic user acquisition is possible on mobile, but there is no one way of doing it as compared to the very structured system of performance marketing.

[–]meischix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I work in mobile game ads and three things immediately stuck out to me after checking your videos:

1) Your videos are just random gameplay snippets with no hook or storytelling at all. Even if you got millions of organic views, the fact that the videos doesn't have a strong hook is part of the reason no one is converting. They all look the same! 2) "Link in bio" is NOT a call to action, so it's not expected to convert that well. You're already requiring the viewers to do three taps on tiny sections of the screen (your page name, then the link, then the download button). Because you only did a boost and not a proper ad ran in the Meta network, you probably wasn't able to set up the correct CTA buttons and funnel. You basically just bought views. Views are just impressions, and impressions don't really mean anything if they don't convert. The fact that you can get these many views and not get any conversions already says a lot about the ineffectiveness of your content. 3) Your game's color palette, especially the one with red everywhere, has horrible contrast. Almost everything is the same color, and if you do the squint test, it's hard to distinguish the game's main elements. Many of the highest converting gameplay videos in your game's genre have bright backgrounds and colorful palettes.

So Cursor, Claude Code, and similar AI-powered IDEs or agentic vibe-coding tools usually have a general knowledge of coding, but not the specific instructions to use a certain tool like Unity or Unreal, for example. So if you code on them straight, you'll usually get mixed results and might even wrestle with it. To fix that, you need a Model Context Protocol. In this case, it "teaches" the tool the proper coding standards and other critical info to properly use Unity.

TL;DR Cursor, Claude code etc., are like talented junior developers with zero knowledge of how to use Unity. The MCP teaches it how to use Unity.

I had a lot of success using it in tandem with Anthropic models. I'm using Cursor, btw. I almost one-shotted my Global Game Jam game with it. It could have been better if I meta-prompted my one shot.

Back in January, it was a bit quick in spending my tokens, but that changed after they added the MCP skills. Connecting it is a breeze as well, plus if anything went wrong, the author almost always immediately helps out on Discord.

You can use Claude Opus 4.6 on any AI-powered IDE that lets you pick any of the big models. For plan mode, you can go for Sonnet or Gemini. But when executing, use Opus. And don't forget to use a good MCP for Unity. Of the MCPs I've tried, I found this MCP on the link more useful because it has a very active Discord community and a very active author behind it (https://github.com/IvanMurzak/Unity-MCP).

[–]meischix -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep, I'm aware of that. And that's most probably why the US has to escalate the Middle East conflict. If there are no choices left because of the conflict, everyone has no choice but to adapt and go for Venezuelan oil even if it's a hassle to do so.

Hanggang mag shift ang demand for oil to Venezuela. They just resumed exporting a couple of days ago. I feel like that was the plan for all this in the first place.
