AI will take away pretty much all the coding and creative jobs in the next decades. I think Nvidia's Huang put it a bit drastically but he is not completeley wrong.
Of course he wants you to believe that and drive his stock price. I have coded with github copilot, chatgpt etc. and in the end I was always faster if i had just googled. This is NOT AI because there is no intelligence. The output is not based on comprehension but rather on "sounds probably right".
You might get away with it in very very simple use cases, though.

Was interested in this one but was not sure about Steam Deck compatibility. Seems to work now: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/7486#issuecomment-1936143720

Might buy and refund if there are too many problems.

I installed the playtest that was running on the weekends but never found any games to join.
The movement and handling in the tutorial brought back some good memories, though.
Would love to try this again with actual players online.

Just don't forget that you have to manually upload your save file to the cloud from within the game if you want to use cloud saves.
I started it on my laptop and wanted to continue on the Steam Deck. I expected it to auto-sync like AC: Mirage but you have to upload it from the save menu.

Happy to report that it works great on the Steam Deck if you add Ubisoft Connect via this script

I'm curious as to what they count as "AI".

Every game with computer controlled opponents has "AI". That is almost every game except PVP-only or single-player puzzle games.

I think most of the real controversy is about a few specific types of AI-generated content.

Computer controlled opponents don't fit into either of their categories.

Generative AI is what is talked about here and where this policy is relevant. As generative AI produces new content based on older content, and that is a legal quagmire. First step would be to have an accurate terminology displayed on store page if generative AI was used or not and if yes, what was generated.

No, it isn't a legal quagmire. Copyright doesn't apply if the work is transformative - which it is. The only people suing over this are "artists" who don't understand that. This will end up before the SCOTUS and they will rule exactly that. I'd bet any amount of money on that.

Probably the worst thing in my 18 hours of Starfield were the constant loading screens. When I think about going back to it I always remind myself that every door is a loading screen. Uninstalled.

Pretty good game. The lack of planets too explore really hurts the game. I'm hoping a sequel is made though.
For me, quite the opposite was true. I found the anti-Starfield approach way better for me.

Valve declares Steam is pro-porn games, anti-blockchain games: anything goes unless you're trying to scam people via blockchain and crypto. Epic declares EGS is pro-blockchain games, anti-porn games: anything goes unless it's sexual in nature.
That reinforces my stance to not buy games from Epic. With the Steam Deck and what Valve is doing with Proton I am really becoming a Valve fanboy.

I played through the original version and recently completed another playthrough on the steam deck. Both times I was underwhelmed. Three hours into Phantom Liberty and I am already hooked. Better late than never.

Bought this on the series x yesterday and now I want to pause Spiderman 2. The first chapter was very slow but did an amazing job setting the stage.

Fired this up today on my Zephyrus laptop with a 3080. First I thought that I had switched to the internal gpu because I was getting only 30fps on an empty city. Then I read it‘s Unity engine….

Would consider buying it again if they gave a larger discount for existing owners of the battle.net version.

Still pissed that the Series X version is 30 fps locked. Just add a performance mode with unlocked framerate and increase resolution scaling.

Baldur's Gate, Starfield... Great time for the gamers who either want a very deep CRPG (BG3) or something a bit lighter on the RPG side but with lots of content and some of the best mod support, too (SF).

Best to get them both. You will have months of good gaming with both games.
Armored Core 6 is the perfect game for a BG3 / Starfield break. Despite the typical From Software boss difficulty I find the linear mission structure kind of soothing

I'm really bummed that this is only 30fps locked (no performance mode available) on the Series X.
I'll gladly trade some fidelity for 60fps.

Interesting since this was designed for AMD hardware on the PS5. Anyway, this was the first Ratchet and Clank title I played (PS5 version) and it was quite a nice surprise.
