More VFX, this time fire. It's all billboards so it looks pretty flat when I move the camera around. -- #vfx #gamedev #godot

Not particularly pleased with the end result, but its fun doing something within just a couple of hours and call it done.
Fan made album cover for the album "Death is little more" by Boundaries. A human skull covered in a fog like vail looking up towards a solar eclipse.

This is a fucking bloodbath. 343/halo studios effectively shuttered, arkane and ninja theory to be shuttered most likely, obsidian and rare are being merged into other studios which likely means huge layoffs, playground and turn 10 to merge which likely means the same.

Not only are electrical scooters an abomination in itself and a road hazard. But why do they also attract the dumbest people? They either drive them in groups of 2-4, or they look back while driving 20 km/t, or both.

Feeling a bit sad the last couple of weeks, as the company I work for goes deeper & deeper into a AI psychosis. With the new ChatGPT models it seems like my time has come, I wont be replaced by an AI, just by someone willing to use one all the time. ´I want to be a carpenter not a manager at IKEA´

a screenshot from the upcoming remake of Tomb Raider 1. lara croft is looking at her phone in the middle of an ancient ruin, and it's showing her a generic crafting menu, and a png of saucepan of stew that apparently her phone lets her cook for "Damage resistance" if she has 6 potatoes

I think I have come to the conclusion that I most likely wont enjoy working in tech, games or the entertainment industry ever again. I will of course have to do it because I have bills to pay like everyone and no clue what else to do. I am so tired.

Now developers will have to burn the midnight oil and crunch to change the game that the higher-ups at Sony ordered.. Will anyone in a managerial position at Sony get fired? Highly doubt it. Will staff at Guerilla be effected? Most likely..

The most annoying part about working adjacent to the games industry but no longer in it, is that whenever a cool position shows itself and you want to apply you are stuck with showing a portfolio that might show your technical ability, but not be directly relevant to games...🥲

Whenever developers gets fired right after a games release, I know it was planed by the higher ups, no way they have already determent if the game was a success or a failure so quick after release.

Sadly, @arielvaale.bsky.social is totally correct here.
My advice for anyone who wants to get into VFX is that you should prepare to fully understand that 99% of people who talk about VFX on the internet have zero clue what they're talking about and there's nothing you can do to educate them :)

One animator put it plainly: “You have no idea how frustrating it is to see press release after press release touting how much money our animated film made and how many nominations we got; then [the studio] turns to people who have worked here forever and says, ‘We don’t need you anymore.’” Heh.

the problem with the games industry is that it makes money in a sustainable way by creating stuff that people want to pay for this is in contrast to how big capital would prefer to make money, by trying to scale fake numbers to infinity using gambler brained investors lured in by impossible claims
