Replying to @thebestiespod
@thebestiespod re ai as a game dev tool (as someone who can't use ai for work due to using a proprietary engine and who hasn't touched unity in years so grain of salt, etc.) Tldr ai is great for learning / a tool for rough drafts but it won't let you ship a game by itself

It's great at getting you started quickly but if you don't have the skills to fix the bugs yourself your probably gonna get stuck. So again it's a tool rather than a replacement for knowledge. But that can change very quickly as it's already improved so much in a year.

There's also a ton of work that goes into getting even a janky game up and running. Jankiest thing I played recently was dark and darker - which had ai, networking, 1p melee combat, meta progression - so I was impressed it was even running. Ai prob can't build that for you. /End

Weird day because it's April fool's and also my last day at sledgehammer. So grateful for everyone on the team that made shipping vanguard awesome and took a chance with me on my first AAA game. Also the office mw3 mountain dew exploded creating this nightmarish obelisk.
If you wanna join the gamestonks, you can deduct up to $3000 of stock losses from your tax returns. As long as you can afford that money being on layaway, just dump $3000 in there. it's a "free" way to help stick it to hedge funds with potential upside.

Apparently I'm wrong and there's a difference between exemption and deduction. So it's more like a 30-40% reduction in your loss.

I appreciate them being there, but if this isn't the most silicon valley way to protest, idk what is

So the response to blatant police brutality and the state violently shutting down protests is: to trust that the state and the police will fix it... What?
My statement on the death of George Floyd:

If Bernie doesn't attack Biden / threaten to pull his base he's failed us. Even then, he maybe already has. The plague is spreading, planets dying, Trump's gonna get reelected; how can you continue to call him your friend and play within the system

Depressed that people are so fucking stupid

I have seen my first goto in the wild and it is truly terrifying

as a studio co-head, genre 'creator', and 12-year industry veteran with a background in art, programming, and production, i think it's important to consider that when it comes to unions it's a complicated problem because we have to unionize the fuck out of this dumpster fire asap

I implemented sun shafts even though they don't really make that much sense in From Light. Pretty happy with how they look after a few hours though.

Hopefully this means I don't frantically force quit unity anymore as I click on one of the 3 identical unity icons on my taskbar and begin reimporting all my assets in the wrong version teapawt.net/mikegeig/status/956211…
