My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.
Other communities:
Kind of a strange bet to make when AI use has been going down in large companies lately. Hope EA goes down as well.
This is assuming people will pay money to play AI slop. These companies continue to vastly overestimate the value of AI produced content. It might be passable on like, bags of candy, maybe even occasionally passable on like free webcomics. And low quality website design. Maybe some simple cash grab mobile games that get taken down after a couple weeks due to the obvious scams.
But paid video games? Which theyre already charging absurd prices for? No. This bubble will burst and companies that continue producing actual games will come out ahead. Companies that are foolishly going all in on entirely unproven technology will crumble.
It's probably AI videos games made by AI for AI to play. People need to do stuff like mining and growing organs, they can't do anything nice anymore like play games
Game quality from this company will be absolute dogshit ai slop
How many EA games require you connect to their servers just to play? How many have ToS where you need to install any updates before you play? How long before these PE folks figure out they can push updates to even older games that add data mining capacity?
At this point EA is a slur and is not allowed in my home
Also, a bet on consumers being willing to pay AAA prices for slop
They already do, the only difference is now the slop will be made by AI instead of underpaid developers in Romania.
Hahaha sure, let them do that.
I always hated them anyway. Good riddance.
They’re also betting on people buying this crap. Hopefully they don’t.
Maybe private equity will do to EA what they did to Toys'R'Us!
I will gladly take the customers EA loses
EAAI
Well now, I'd already basically given up on EA, glad I made the right choice
good, let them fail more.
Just sitting here playing the long game, waiting for EA to finally implode and get sold off for parts so we can finally get a new Command & Conquer.
Vibe coding is one thing, but I am curious about the state of using of AI tools to reduce the cost of generating 3D assets, animations, and textures. I assume they are introducing this into Ignite and their other build tools, for more rapid prototyping if nothing else.
My first thought was they'll probably use it to generate endless slop assets for The Sims, since people seem to pick up whatever they put out for that.
For 3D model generation, I've played with Hunyuan3D, Tripo and Trellis. The models they make are impressive, but not production-usable. You'll spend enough time cleaning them up that you may as well make them the old fashioned way.
Most of the benefits of generative image models are already baked into Photoshop. While helpful, not something that's going to give them a competitive advantage.
