The game credits are 14mins long, get your shit together when you write an article. Most of the game was outsource to over 1000 people, stop trying to make it sound like it's almost an AA game and diminishing the creativity, talent and artistry of your external contractors.

Star Wars: Galactic Racer was made by a core team of 75 people. "What we wanted to do was keep that core small, smaller than perhaps you might have done in the past, and scale capacity and capability with what we call distributed development." https://bit.ly/4hT02qg

Haha #Epic! System tray restore time? In ms? Don't you wanna compare your times on maybe... per game forums? advanced dev api for your game? discovering games on your harddrive? emojis? stickers? modding/workshop tools? screenshot and community features? reviewing products? cloud saves?...

And i don't know how the f they did these measurements, my Steam does not take 10secs to do a cold start. This shows how zero argument they have to sell their store. If the only thing you can say is "my store launches faster than Steam"... you should really think about improving the hell out of it.

I was watching something about the Fortnite biz model yesterday ( devs and companies banking on the content creation ), and I had forgotten that Verse was in there since the beginning... ...and suddenly it made more sense why #Epic is forcing Verse for #UnrealEngine6 that much and depreciating BP.

...which will allow them to move the team responsible of the blueprint dev and maintenance for UE to Verse. The ultimate goal being to have most of the devs working on UE benefiting directly the Fortnite money printing machine. Even if the move is not beneficial for game studios using the engine.

That's obviously a subjective take on the matter, and some other factors might play a role in that decision. But knowing the history of UE evolution... the idea is somewhat plausible and probably not that far stretched.

At some point, if you looked at the features updated, bug fixed or new techs incoming in UE4 and UE5, you could generally pin point to something added in Fortnite. Even tho the UE is also getting improved for the VG industry and cinema... a non-negligeable part of the drive was/is Fortnite

All this to say, that Verse is probably not getting that much attention for UE6 because it's better than BP, Epic is probably trying to gaslight devs when the real reason behind is not having to maintain blueprint and Verse simultaneously...

To make this (somewhat) a long story short, most UE devs know that I think, but Unreal Engine stagnated quite a bit over the years. The moment the engine got some new stuffs (and faster updates and bug fixes) was at the moment Fortnite started to get some traction.

It appears that Bobby Prince has died. Doom - Quake - Rise of the Triad - Duke Nukem. So SO many more. I can say this is someone who composed a song just for me. Not many people can say that. Dude's a legend. RIP my old friend. www.legacy.com/legacy/rober...

Ho. Youtube just added a very very (very) small "AI" icon below the title of videos fully generated with AI. Proper first step, now we need this like "in your face" when the video starts. Thank you.

It's interesting to dive down the creation process itself and not the Wwise/FMOD process (which is often what happens with music breakdowns in the VG industry).

I just pissed myself... this is the movie he is mad that people are calling slop... I demand you watch with the sound on... it is so much worse than you think it is going to be...

You're sick of techbros and bullshit AI in the video game/music industry? Here's a fun anecdote: aside my passion for VG and composition, I also garden a lot (I'm pretty much self sufficient during the summer for vegetables)... since maybe a year... 1/6

And just for fun, gardening or whatever the subject, I'm now reporting every single of these crap as spam/scam. 6/6

( pardon my frenglish, I saw a couple of mistakes and you can't sadly edit like on Mastodon : '( )

All this to say... the "safe haven" I had with gardening to clear my head of all this tech stuff, is also getting infected by all that crap... and probably stealing audience from actual passionate gardeners. (ho yeah, they also steal the content from big channels). 4/6

This is probably not limited to gardening, I'm pretty sure any subject is bound to be polluted with these content farmers. But damn... the future is dire. Every single search from now on is gonna require a massive attention span to ensure you're not looking at frikkin' generated bullcrap. 5/6

...it is pretty much impossible to search for meaningful and interesting content on Youtube without having a video out of 3 being a fully AI generated, and devoid of any serious information. But... they do use trendy keywords, and show very basic, somewhat credible information. 2/6

In the last 3 months, I've seen the trend accelerate. I'm seeing some channels popup with over 400K subs which are not even a year old. I'm convinced they get traction (besides the fact they buy subs) and some clueless (not in a mean way... in a "can't see it's AI way") definitely fall for it 3/6
