Using sound as bait in RetroSpace. Enemies always chase to where the sound disappears instead of where the player made it, some of them also have cool AI behavior (moths find light to heal, pigs sniff blood for food), so it creates dynamic possibilities to bait them into death.

Finding "needle in a haystack" in a haystack of "needle in a haystack"s? What about finding an immersive sim on this page?

The real scent trail I need:

Saw some “Focus, G” comments about the *new* Garrett voice lines. “I can pick that guy off with an arrow, but if I miss, I’ll give myself away” is an unused line for the original game’s tutorial. Nightdive most definitely used it for trailer purposes.

The next Deus Ex should be about how AI hallucination / deliberate AI deception started WW III.

Looking at the freedom SeverLink aims to provide, it could be a cool immersive sim-adjacent game if you’re more into Splinter Cell, Hitman, Metal Great Solid styled stealth.

100 upvotes in 1 hour. The general belief is that most immersive sim developers and players are cat people.

Cat people, unite! 🐱 The Citadel Project, a dark fantasy stealth game, had to release early due to a massive €6,000 vet bill. A red-light runner fucker hit their cat, Snoopy, and fled. Miraculously, Snoopy survived thanks to his incredible strength and will to live.

In NewDark 1.29 for Thief, now you can open a door halfway and hide under the dynamically created shadow (you can also enable guards to notice the player's shadow).

Yesterday was the 5th anniversary of the release of "DEATHLOOP" It's a very special project. I shifted my role from level design to direction. I crafted things that challenged me in ways I'd never considered. I grew with my team I became Dana Nightingale 🏳️‍⚧️ Thank you for all the love & support

Randy is right. Microslop indirectly contributed to Looking Glass's closure, mismanaged the production of Redfall & Perfect Dark, closed Arkane Austin & divested Arkane Lyon to kill institutional knowledge, and DX:IW & TDS being on 1st gen Xbox console hurt their immersive sim design.

This is officially the most liked developer post at r/immersivesim. Intriguing title, concise trailer, sincere communication, well-placed links, they make so much difference. I hope the numbers can go up for more posts and more different developers.

A recently released Thief FM that included AI-generated assets has sparked significant controversy at ThiefGuild and TTLG, and even drove some members (e.g. skacky, one of the creators of The Black Parade) out of the FM scene. It created a huge schism in the community and it's sad to see.

Dark Messiah with DLSS 5. The modder is frustrated that r/immersivesim doesn't appreciate the "vast differences in shadows, ambient occlusion / global illumination, and reflections done accurately to various textures, and all these in real-time".

Imagine some sort of an intensity slider for DLSS 5. Al bros try to convince you 5 looks good (it doesn't), most people crank it to 10 (nightmare fuel) to dunk on it, those who do a 1 are the real danger. It scares me, without a side by side comparison, most would choose the generated frame.
