Video games are weapons grade copium

Using this from now on.

I agree it's really obvious to anyone who plays games, but it's always nice to be backed up with proper research.

Graphics cards will be the least of your worries. Putting tariffs on chips will crash the economy, there's no way anyone will let him do this.

 

This article is a bit broken on Firefox so I highly recommend playing this on anything Chromium, but it's really cool - they essentially turned the article into a webgame to showcase the mental health benefits of a cozy video game.

The image generation is really bad. Image description capabilities seem good but it'll take time to see if it's better than what already exists.

They probably just put it out to keep the hype going.

That sucks, I hope you're doing alright after the layoffs. Hopefully things improve in this industry...

Woah, you worked there? Got any stories on how things went down?

I played it on release and it was a fun time with friends. A few years back Phoenix Labs was bought out by another company, and it was all downhill from there. It really is a shame, Dauntless was a neat game.

 

If anyone was following this fiasco, they basically launched Dauntless on Steam with a major update that completely wrecked the game and removed much of its content. Dauntless was already struggling and went in weird directions during development but this was the final nail in the coffin, and the company seems to have totally gone under.

Just one of its studios, not the whole company.

I read most of it and yeah, the author almost had a point but just trails off for many, many paragraphs.

Goddamn, what an amazing resource. If only Spotify could make something like this instead of trying to push whatever's popular at the time.
