Very sad.
I’ve seen so many people be like “this will make quest infinite!”
Like congrats your gonna be doing generated fetch quest like settlements in falllout 4.
Y’all thought Starfield was barren and boring, now wait for every new Microsoft game to feel the same in 5 years.
The end goal must be an entire game made solely by AI. Don’t have to do much. Do players wanna buy a game made entirely by AI with adaptable elements using an engine that uses AI?
No shit, so is everyone else.
AI has a very bright future in gaming if used correctly. I just played a whole DnD campaign by myself on ChatGPT, and while some areas were repetitive and it didn’t really follow the rules, for being an AI text prompt service that wasn’t designed or optimized for DnD, it was surprisingly good.
On one hand, the concept that you could bring in a bunch of awesome voice actors, have them record a few hours of lines, and then from there an AI can freestyle with the voice and do whatever lines come up in the game, that sounds like an amazing concept in gaming. The idea that you could say, blow up a building in GTA and the AI would react in a way more than the random screaming voice lines, but might actually say “Oh my god he’s blowing up the Jeep dealership!” That sounds amazing. On the other hand I do worry that it would be used for purposes of cheapening down stories, characters and the artistic parts of gaming. I don’t want to live in a world where the execs are microsoft studios just type in “Chatgpt, write me a plot for my fantasy game” and then do whatever it says.
I mean chatgpt can write a better story then these lazy devs can.
