It has come to Jake's attention on Twitter of late that a segment of gamers is angry at Death Stranding getting a “very-easy mode”. Jake gives his take on the whole game difficulty debate.
It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.
Death Stranding is coming to streaming in the form of a new animated series.
Death Stranding creator Hideo Kojima wants AI to handle "tedious task" in order to cut down on development time and cost.
Cool, as long as no one is losing their job while already rich people make more money.
I feel that this is the position of every sensible person. However, we face two prominent issues:
1. There are nefarious actors (like Microsoft) who want to prohibit AI regulation. Some US states have some regulations in place, but it's very patchwork at best.
2. Without strict quality control and human review, AI is very likely to hallucinate in embarrassing ways.
I’m all in favor for faster developed games.. that’s been the Achilles heel this gen.. taking 5+ years for development. If it can help with building vast landscapes then let it be. A win win if it doesn’t endanger the jobs of current team. They can help in other areas.
I don't doubt kojima that he has good intentions and would use AI without compromising the creative process, but you know for sure other development will say the same and have AI make the whole game for them.
Yeah and whoever he works for or whatever AI models he chooses to use will train on his data and work to replace Kojima themselves.
I can't imagine any other creator in gaming that demands the salary size of Kojima.
What I wonder about, let’s say five years from now. Will an individual be able to make a triple A title using A.I…If so what would be the need for others? I hate to say it but eventually people will loose their jobs. Because I hear no talk about the ethics of using A.I. among the big companies.
Difficulty settings are a welcome option, not a requirement.
Its there to be more accessible to a wider audience which isnt bad. What would be nice is if there was an incentive to do harder difficulties like increased rewards and whatnot.
No one does. People have an issue with gamers INSISTING devs include an easy mode.
I personally can't speak for other gamers but I personally like making fun of incompetent game journalist who are unable to understand basic functions and gameplay when it comes to playing video games.
