I have no idea why people and companies still trust Google. When I did work on GCP we had mandatory maintenance every 2 months because some core service was changing. Hell I just got a notice last week that they’re shutting down another API.
Lol just watched a video that I agree with, that shows again and again that you can build a big world, but it means nothing if you don’t have the creativity to fill it.
So I’m sure Ubisoft would use this. Super. It’s not going to be able to make the next red dead or cyberpunk.
More like the local store suing Walmart for putting them out of business, but only after they pushed away all of their customers with bad ideas and flashy gimmicks
Man good thing they’re coming out with so many new games. I’d be worried about the long term health of these big companies if it weren’t for the solid pipes of great new titles rolling out
And they’re punishing dispatch devs for their shit choice. They’re not returning the consoles or refusing to buy Nintendo, they’re returning the game that Nintendo censored.
I honestly don’t know how they’re so disconnected from reality. To in the same statement within 2 paragraphs say they both want to be more focused on the gamer, and immediately then say “More GenAI, more recurring payments, more Games as a Service”. I just, I don’t know man. I don’t want layoffs but man they really just don’t get it do they?
Yeah so, we know gamers have hated our stuff because of these horrible shitty practices - but, and hear me out, what if we did that stuff even more, don’t even mention things like great stories and fun worlds or anything gamers have been asking for, and also laid off most of our staff and forced return to office too?
Ubisoft founder and CEO, Yves Guillemot, said the company must pursue a “radically new” value-creation model and become a more “gamer-centric” organization to find its footing in an increasingly competitive and selective triple-A market.
Good! Realizing it needs to be about the gamer again not just shareholder value.
“The new operating model will further empower the execution of the Group’s strategy, centered on Open World Adventures and GaaS-native experiences, supported by targeted investments, deeper specialization, and cutting-edge technology, including accelerated investments behind player-facing Generative AI,” reads the document.
Lovers in a dangerous spacetime was a ton of fun! Very adorable, simple mechanics, plays on one screen, and not too hard. Also came out over 5 years ago so win win
Don’t. I think it honestly has a place. Now that place is vastly different from what business bros think it is, but it does have a place. I think writing tests is a great reason, and it’s a good double check. Writing documentation is good, and even writing some boilerplate code and models. The kicker is that you need to already be an engineer to use it, and to understand what it’s doing. I would not trust it blindly, and I feel confident enough to catch it.
It’s another tool in our belt, it’s fine to use it that way. Management is insane though if they think you’ll 10x. Maybe 2x.
God I’ve tried three times to enjoy no man’s sky and I just can’t. It’s just endless grinding, no real reward for it, and no way to automate any of the tasks so you can move onto more fun things
