  • I feel like if AI is gonna be used in games in the future, they should implement it in the opposite way. Use it to make different stories and characters to populate a world someone actually created.

    The Mantella mod for Skyrim is what I’d want out of AI video games in the future. That thing is kind of a beast imo, as you can use it to generate completely brand new stories and quests. This General Sam video where he plays through Skyrim with the mod, talking to any and all animals he comes across, really makes it feel like an entirely new type of game. I mean, he goes into a bear den after some town guards killed a different one, convinced one of the cave bears to follow him to town to get revenge for killing it, and even had a conversation with the bear over which healing spell “felt” better.






  • They not only removed the campaign the game originally shipped with, but also those first two expansions we bought. So many people defended Bungie when they straight up deleted the content, but everyone was still stupidly hopeful that it would make a return someday. I knew from the beginning of the “vaulting” that there was no “vault,” and they just actually deleted huge chunks of the game from everyone’s systems.









  • I just got done working a comic convention this weekend. You might be pretty surprised by the general lack of clothing most people wear to those things (calling it a “costume”).

    Just this weekend alone, I saw at least five guys walking around without a shirt, and I don’t know how many women wearing things that showed basically everything. Like so tight and thin I could tell what kind and color underwear they were wearing.

    And this was in Indianapolis, far from a beach or lake, right in the middle of downtown.
