Did I say something stupid enough that you needed to check my profile?

Good, that was on purpose.

  • I do have a recommendation for a cozy FPS: The Signal from Tolva.

    Basically you’re a robot in an old robot battlefield planet and you’ve got to shoot other robots, sometimes team up with other robots and go around getting upgrades.

    The coziness comes from the environment, which has some strong outworldliness vibe and it feels slightly lonely but in a “journey” way. Plus the guns feel good and it’s probably really cheap right now.

    The cons is that the game doesn’t feel finished, after a while it gets repetitive and then it just ends.

    If I had to describe it, I would say it’s an FPS+walking simulator.

    “Generation Zero” would be my second recommendation, which is a mixture of Red Dawn, Swedish 80s and big robots.

    Note: I haven’t played them except for the 2nd entry, but the Far Cry series feels like it is a mixture between FPS and holiday island.


  • Let’s put it this way: If in our lifetime we can simulate the intelligence of a vinegar fly as general intelligence, that would be a monumental landmark in AGI. And we’re far, far, far away from it.

    As far as the iron age was from the metal alloys used in the Space Shuttle.

    Talking about AGI simulating higher intelligence at the level of a dog or a cat, dear I say a pigeon or a crow is as far fetched as expecting ancient Egyptians to harness the power of the atom.
