Pokopia using the dragon quest builders formula with a pokemon paintjob is not exactly my idea of a system seller (people mistakenly liken it to animal crossing or Minecraft when it’s literally made by the same people who made builders) but everyone should experience dragon quest builders in some shape or form. Second game was a masterpiece that way too few people gave a chance to. Glad to see the dev finally getting the recognition they always deserved.

It got to a point where commitments made to Overwatch League and its "billionaire investors" started to interfere with work on Overwatch itself, or at least, the part of it the public played. This included the development of Twitch integration, spectator camera control, as well as skins in the form of team uniforms. In other words, the money people kept promising features that soaked up development resources.
"What ultimately broke me and my Blizzard career was I got called into the CFO's office and he sits me down and he says—he gives me a date which at the time was 2020 and was going to slip to 2021, but at the time it was 2020—and he said: 'Overwatch has to make [redacted] in 2020, and then every year after that it needs a recurring revenue of [redacted]' and then he says to me 'if it doesn't do [redacted] we're going to lay off 1,000 people, and that's going to be on you.' And that was the biggest fuck you moment I've had in my career, it felt surreal to be in that condition."
And this is why nobody invite you guys to the parties, A/B!

Reqiuem just keeps selling!
In a similar vein:



It's not quite the same, since that's including installations via Game Pass or the like, but it's good to know survival horror fans have been eating good lately.

So whatever this is doing to the characters looks fucking horrendous


Its just "designed by fans"ing every character
I’ll be honest, Hogwarts Legacy was the only one that it didn’t do anything for. The art style doesn’t lend itself to whatever the DLSS is doing. But StarField and Resident Evil? I won’t call it an improvement but it’s not a detrimental change either.

It's like they are staring into my soul, and behind their terrifying gaze there are none to be found. It geniunely reminds me of "my face is tired from dealing with everything" face from ME: Andromeda.

It doesn't even add anything amazing to environmental aestheic either.

I will stick with DLSS4, thanks

We are calling it AI slop because of how atrocious the rendering is, ruining the artistic direction that the developers had originally envisioned.

.....You also just contradicted yourself, because what you describe sounds exactly like generative AI.

People are joking about this purely because *it’s AI* but if they weren’t told which is which or better yet, the “ON” took more human effort they’d all be saying the DLSS5 is better.

I mean ffs. Unless they’re making the left image look washed out and lacking detail on purpose, let’s be real here.

How many legs does a dog have if you call its tail a leg?

Four, unless that dog was generated by AI.
