OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 13hRan across this, and it's something I've thought a lot about. People get excited about GENERATING stuff, at least at first, but they have no time for the things that other people generate. I think that comes as a shock to a ton of people who think that this is going to make them rich. It won't. 110

OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 14hAgain, sorry, but I really don't fucking care how many you times you post on Bluesky about DRUMPF BAD If you're getting deep into this LLM shit you're feeding every single dipshit who "did his own research" about how horse dewormer is a vaccine Kennedy is just straight-up stating that 000
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 18hI didn't actually realize this was due to them switching to a kind of post-training that's faster to implement, but doesn't have humans in the loop to say "no fuck off just don't" Near as I can tell it's due to DeepSeek bullshitting about how they stole the weights and OAI being too dumb to realize 000
Reposted by OrangeSkybarleybap @barleybap.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Also, don't @ me if you're not calling this bad boy Tales of Eternia in the year of our lord 2026. There's a 24 year old game called Tales of Destiny 2 that's an actual sequel to Tales of Destiny, lads. Having one game called Tales of Destiny II and one called Tales of Destiny 2 is actual savagery. 4324
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Finished Robotics;Note, and it was the first of these "science adventure" VNs that felt, like, normal instead of a weird MC torture chamber Liked it more than Chaos;Head, less than Steins;Gate, mostly because the cast was good but not stellar like the labmems were in SG 100
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 29/09/2026More and more I feel like it's that game design thing where you have to NOT give the player an iwin button, because they'll push it even if it'll fuck things up for them If you create any kind of art, reportage or commentary, you need that shit off your phone and preferably blocked in your browser 120

OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Yeah I'm at the point where I absoluely will not buy a Square game on Switch, even though it's my favorite platform at this point, because they're being such HUGE dicks about the Switch 2 upgrades "50% off"? Cool but 0% of the savegames transfer so that's still a no-fuckin-go my dudes 000

OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 29/09/2026It's still funny that there's a very specific kind of Bluesky crashout that you ONLY get with a high-follower bluecheck account They spend like six hours on tried and failed quote-dunks on everybody in their replies, doing "CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS PERSON" to readers just thinking "uh, actually yes" 110
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Note that pretty much every single government response to Meta is "we'll thwart this Zuck guy by making it legally mandatory to give away your personally identifying info" "And also ban VPNs because netflix asked us very nicely" 000
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Sure, if you tune the difficulty and frequency right, many devs simply don't And if you don't, then whoops the players also quit entirely, and you really just chose one flavor of "fuck this I quit" over a different one where players actually have the agency to alleviate the problem 130
Reposted by OrangeSkyRyan McDiarmid @ryanmcdiarmid.com · 28/09/2026I try to hammer this home in the unfortunately many conversations I have with non-creative normies about the state of games, animation, etc. They have all been lead to think AI is replacing us, and it’s just not true. The money people have by and large just tossed us aside for a shiny new toy! 36928
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 28/09/2026One of the weird parts about this whole situation is how much of it relied on the total breakdown of American governance During the Obama or even Bush years they would have come down on Anthropic, OpenAI, and their weird thieving cultists like the fist of an angry God 110
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Yeah this is an impact that I feel isn't being addressed enough. Because investors are chasing the (psychotic) dream of billion-dollar businesses with zero workers, they're pretty much only putting money into AI projects. That's why EVERYBODY is pretending they're AI-related, even if it's a lie. 100

OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Yeah the only good thing about this mess is that the idea guys finally got their chance And it turns out that, yes, the idea guys suck exactly as bad as everybody would have expected Loudmouths cobbling together the worst shit you ever saw then just abandoning it when the clout dries up 000
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Looked up some stuff on google involving a shipment and oh boy is it REALLY bad now The top five sites were really obvious slop that was just rewriting other unnamed and dubious sources...and the Google AI summary was very openly drawing on them exclusively It was an ouroboros of bullshit 000
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Seriously every single time I hear one of the LLM glazers on this site start witnessing the glory of claude or astra or whatever, im just reminded that their filthy cult has destroyed everything else Can't even buy a computer now and you're going off about the Singularity?

OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 27/09/2026The routes in Steins;Gate at least sorta made sense but Robotics;Note is just...what Like I GET it, sorta, but this is really making me appreciate the way that Uchikoshi handles this stuff 100
Reposted by OrangeSkyauthorblues @authorblu.es · 27/09/2026The reason we have all these Claude-built recomp/decomp projects is because the AI dorks couldn't figure out how to shoehorn LLMs into games that were made 20 years ago so they all got together and had their agents do a little brainstorming and came up with a strategy to ruin yet another good thing. 521161
OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Notably the subjects of the story are making it extremely clear that they consider it blatant libel 0113

OrangeSky @spacetalk.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Yeah no shit, that whole Discourse was genuinely so psychopathic that it was an excellent reminder of why the women in this position might have anxiety to begin with Boomer-brained shit, modern version of "second hand smoke is a myth" and "I drive better after I've had a few" 1100
