This is an excellent thread on the differences between game decomps, recomps, and ports-- and even putting the ethical problems aside for the sake of argument, the practical reality of why AI misses the mark on all of them. There ARE still projects worth supporting that reject AI!

I still see a lot of confusion about what decompilation, recompilation and ports are and what level of effort is involved in each type of project. It's important that people understand the difference, as recompilation took a drastically different meaning that when it was originally introduced.

We have not, do not and will not use AI to ever work on these projects. We've already made it public for quite a long time we're interested in doing Tooie at some point. The game requires a lot of love and care to do a proper port.

Just a warning for everyone, since Video Game Slopterica keeps being the most irresponsible YouTube Channel to exist these days. The Banjo-Tooie Recompilation is NOT associated with us. It is entirely AI-generated. Both Zelda: Recompiled and Banjo: Recompiled have very clear No AI stances.

A Wind Waker """recomp""" was posted and their Github actually says this. It's such an AI-generated port, they were so hands-off with it, that they didn't even bother testing most of the game. The retro space is in hell and I hate these fucking people
A Github readme screenshot that says: 
"Tested areas: the opening and prologue, Outset Island, sailing the Great Sea, Windfall, a late-game Hyrule save, menus, and saving and reloading. Later dungeons and boss fights are still largely untested; if you find a problem there, please report it."

The scope of that Microsoft patent is actually far worse than I expected. I thought it was just for using deliberately designed in-game hooks to serve ads & "reward" with playtime. I didn't know it was ACR and constantly monitoring all your audiovisual activity for ways to inject ads in everything.

Posted about it on Twitter, but I figured I should talk about it here, too. CQ Act 2 is underperforming to a really disappointing degree. I'm considering my options moving forward, but it's looking very grim for my ability to continue working on games going forward.

The best part of being an artist is that you can just draw whatever dumb idea comes to your head at 1am
A scene parodying the Neon Genesis Evangelion scene of Asuka and her Eva unit getting pierced by the spear of longinus. In this scene, Linguini and Remy from Pixar's Ratatouille take the place of the EVA unit and Asuka respectively. Linguinis eye is pierced by a fork version of the spear and Remy is depicted in an inset where he is grabbing his eye and screaming like the anime. There are anime subtitles at the bottom that say "AHHHHHHHHH!"
