Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

I'm in the minority, but I liked The Witcher 1 also. I thought the story and world building was pretty cool, the combat is a little different, but easy to get along with. It's not as expansive and dynamic as TW3, but it was still fun.

TW3 was just great. I still need to do the expansions, but the writing, world building, etc were all so good. Agree that it's one of the better RPGs in the past 15 years. The combat isn't as fluid as Dark Souls, but it also isn't as high consequence either if you screw up. I find it a lot lower stress to play.

TW2 was the weaker of the three IMO. It felt like there were parts of the story you'd miss if you didn't read the books and the whole thing just felt really short for some reason.

Boomers test my soul every day, not all of them but always boomers

We are used to it thanks to Ms Chatty

Actually I am too old to be a boomer.

I would still prefer you over anyone who is post-milennials

"Activision should hire all the devs who were grossly incompetent and spent the last 15 years running Halo to the ground"

Who comes up with this ***???

Had my first talk with Walmart's AI phone support bot. Couldn't do a damn thing about actually processing my refund, but held a conversation and figured out my problem without missing a beat. The human I was transferred to did the rest.

So at the very least we removed the number tree of support options!

I heard whatsapp is going to charge business per message.

Maybe this way they can employ better models to chatbots.

Last support service that I contacted via whatsapp were utterly garbage.

It should not even be called AI. Feels more like a script running grep instead.

Have a small typo and they yell: I cant understand, please call again!"

Unlocked this achievement and felt personally attacked

What's the game. And why attacked. Unless you feel bad at being over 40 (you shouldn't).

AI told me that it is "Blade Chimera".

Ghost in the Metal Gear Solid - got it.

Are you doing a heckin GenAI slop??????

I'm not playing a game called "Blade Chimera", get real.

Today I watched a video about a guy who makes funny random video, and that video theme was: I will buy EVERY game launched on Steam today and play it.

Most were AI generated.

And being honest... All of them were utterly failure.

There was one who was só disastrous that even the trailer were running at 2 fps. The game barely started, and nothing could be done.

The good information I got from there is the guy himself was a game developer, and he said out of all game engines, Godot was the one most integrated with AI.

It is also the actual "free" engine, beginner friendly and the one I read at least a bit of it.

Prepare for my future game AI slop coming.

Right after my AI music generation.

And just to not seems like I just throw things without care, I actually started my music design online college. Classes start today, but every day I watch at least 1h of lesson to get used to it faster.

It doesn't feel like it will take that long before I can make some sounds.

Stay tuned for more

Blade Chimera

It was a joke about the game sitting for so long in the backlog

Team Ladybug (Japanese indie dev) make really smooth and pretty metroidvanias. I played their Record of Lodoss War one (named "Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth"). This is their latest game, and it's been fun so far.

Its friday, and I dont feel like doing anything today

Anyone recommend some budget headphones with good noise cancellation? Have to demolish and rebuild part of the house and it's going to be insanely loud for a couple of weeks.

Good morning, my buds.

Hope you all doing great.

Anna Ruthvanga sounds a lot better than Anna Ruthven

Guess I'm not done with Elden Ring after all

Santafernando sounds a lot better than Pantafernando.

Or perhaps Pantagruel.

Look it up.

Lanterns kinda pull it together in the second half. If they hadn't started with that silly ***people might've stayed for the whole thing.

(bad press is good press, I know. you get people mad enough to hate watch it and maybe it works)

After two years in storage I finally had gotten some of my displays setup for dragon ball. I kind of hopped around but the cell one took me so long to setup... it was a nightmare.
