I find it amazing how few companies don’t even give people a chance. I’m tech-inclined, but the only thing I have to my name is a Comptia A+ cert. However, I’ve also done a lot of things that are well beyond that skill set in a multitude of ways, and I also learn quite quickly. It’s tough to put ‘Hey, I managed a MYSQL database for a modded Minecraft server and I set everything up myself.’ on a resume. Nobody even bothers to read that because it mentions Minecraft, never mind the amount of actual work it takes to run a public-facing server like that with hundreds of active players logged in at once. It certainly isn’t ’just playing a video game’.
Nobody seemed to complain about buying studios when Sony was doing it years ago. Or EA.
It’s hard to find talented studios to make AAA games, especially on short notice. Far easier and faster to just buy an existing company and its talent rather than try to lure said talent away to join you normally. Sony did just that many years ago, and look at the awesome games they come out with! Why _wouldn’t Microsoft do the same thing to try and compete?
I’m not saying it’s a good thing for gamers, but it makes sense from a business perspective.
I think in that case, no. ‘Style’ is one thing, directly using someone’s art in your own work is something else entirely. However, we’re talking about a person here, not a program developed by a company for the express purpose of making as much money as possible in the shortest amount of time. Until AI can truly demonstrate that it is truly thinking and not simply executing commands given, I don’t think the lines are blurred nearly enough to suggest that someone learning to paint and an AI trained on hundreds of thousands of pieces of art for the purpose of making money for the company that built it are remotely the same.
In what way? I rephrased my original comment.
Using copyrighted material for something you aren’t gonna make any money off of? Cool, go hog wild. If you’re gonna use some music or art that you didn’t make in something that will make you money, the folks that made whatever you used should get a cut. Not the whole cut, but a cut.
…then maybe they shouldn’t exist. If you can’t pay the copyright holders what they’re owed for the license to use their materials for commercial use, then you can’t use ‘em that way without repercussions. Ask any YouTuber.
At least rehost them elsewhere, geez.
In the very least, we should be ensuring that any animal bred for consumption should be given the absolute best life possible, not crammed into spaces like sardines and forced to exist in their own shit all their lives.
Yes, let’s blame all the early issues with the game on the narrative director. 🙄
Probably because they were all cheap crap and not made up to the standards of the device they connected to.
Deserves every bit of praise it’s gotten.
Poor thing doesn’t realize you weren’t attacking them without the braincell.
I AM A DOG AND I’M DIGGING A HOLE.
What they should be is broken the fuck up. No company should have their hands in so many different pies.
My immediate thought was to have a more jazzed up character portrait for D&D.
I am not a clever man.
You’d think, but the geriatrics running our government barely know what a computer is, much less a virus.
And not even a particularly great city builder at that.
