Re: "We Will Take This As A Lesson" - Level-5 CEO Doubles Down On GenAI Despite Backlash

I always said how we couldn't trust that Expedition 33 game didn't use more AI than just in those placeholders, but since most people liked that game, they just insulted me.

I've come to terms with AI because if we keep pushing against it in games, game developers will simply learn how to hide it more effectively. Expedition 33 did it. They used AI heavily and everyone doesn't want to believe it because "it's such a good game, how could it use AI".

"They used it only on placeholders!" Yeah, of course.

It's sad, and whatever, but we should become used to this, game developers will start and keep using AI and lie to us so we buy from them.

@Discostew Some third party games being demanding (as in they need to load big assets very fast) are the reason some are choosing Game Key Cards over carts (the internal and SD Express speeds are greater than Switch 2 carts speeds).

If, when, Nintendo themselves make a very heavy and assets demanding game, they'll need to make it a Game Key Card.

@JackieCMarlow Donkey Kong is basically Mario franchise. Also, same development team as Mario Odyssey.

Hyrule Warriors is enough for me as a Zelda fan, but I kind of get how not everyone like it.

So, really not that bad. A lot better what we've been getting, than only 1-2 first party games per year, like some other platforms.

Re: Starfox's Official Switch 2 Box Art, Price And Estimated File Size Revealed

@Aurumonado I mean, 3DS game was based directly off Star Fox 64 and not on the original game. It's called Star Fox 64 3D for a reason.

This new game looks also directly based off the N64 game. So, the original one had only one remake on N64, and everything after that have been reimagined (Zero), remasters (3DS) and remakes (Switch 2 game) based off N64.

My parents didn't like gaming at all. They said they damaged me so they never bought anything even if I asked a lot for my birthdays. They were great parents outside of that.

My first time playing Zelda and Mario was back in the 2000's through emulators. My first Zelda was ALttP.
