So I’m not into megs man, platformer shooters are super not my thing. But after loving Paradise Killer I think detective games just might be. I’ve never played any of the Ace games, any suggestions on which is a good entry point to the series? Is there an overall story of are the games self contained?

HA!

I feel like I should be annoyed at the headline, but honestly it’s clever. Veganism isn’t just a diet, but an ethical framework on minimizing harm so this fits all three aspects in the articles.

• I support artists who had their work stolen as part of dataset, it’s largely the same reason I don’t eat animals, it’s all about consent. Being harmed without consent is always wrong.

• Likewise the environmental footprint of meat and AI are massive and unnecessary. The carbon footprint between meat and plant protein is massive, just like the difference between building more data centers and supporting existing artists.

• AI is bad for your mental health, we don’t really have complete research on what exactly AI does to our brains but I’ve seen enough people thinking they “unlocked sentience”, became “digital gods” and started AI “relationships” to steer clear for my own protection. Not dissimilar to the studies that show a plant based diet is better for your heart and immune system. I’d still be eating plants even if it were bad for my health, I care more about the ethical side, but existing research very much shows it as a net positive.

Neat concept.

Temtem. Like I’m not trying to be a troll, but Tem has so much more going on in its world.

Just curious, what was the male version?

Finicial authority beats moral everytime.

Don’t pick me. This is just inspiration to do like my… 5th-ish playthrough. Fantastic game and a real treat for any new farmers!

But, the real question is… when ya gonna haunt them chocolates ape!!!

It’s pretty clear that you wouldn’t approve of any cop show that tries to work through these issues

Well I definitely wouldn’t say that, I’m a big fan of The Wire and We Own This City. All three are different flavors of copaganda, I just feel B99 lampshaded systemic issues instead of confronting them.

However I do agree that there isn’t use in arguging, and since we both made our opinions clear you go have a good day. ♥️

You just listed the exact reasons the show is copaganda.

American Police are not lovable goofballs full of historically oppressed minorities realizing they are the bad guys. They are not “tackling issues”, they are lampshading and white washing them. Take the episode where Peralta meets the old detective from the book he loves on and is like

“Oh wow, old school police were racist… glad they aren’t anymore!”

The copaganda show … as chaotic good?

No. Heck no.

The Good Place is a much better fit.

Some are sure, but there are many different ways to make vegan cheese that produce wildly different results. IMO the cashew based ones are best. If you can find it at your local store, Myokos mozzarella for pizzas is absolutely divine.

That’s honestly heart breaking, all three gave exceptional performances. I hope in time people will understand the artistic merit in both voice acting and video games as a medium, but these people deserved to skyrocket into their own franchises.

WARNING : Playing excellent, well told, thought provoking puzzle games about AI will make you so much madder about the silly folk that say “I turned AI sentient” folk. 🙄

Great game, solid sequel too.

Oooh I was thinking of grabbing Steins. I know I watched the anime several years ago and enjoyed it, but only have hazy recollections of the plot. Doing the VN seems just enough same, just enough different to be fun.

Just finished Tyranny and Pilliars of eternity so I’m picking up the sequel Deadfire. Checked out the price history last week and seems like it’s regularly 75% off during seasonal sales so I’m pleased to see it at $10.

Attack the arguments, not the person.

I mean… Piratesoftware certainly went after the person.

Adam ruined reddit.

(Go with me on the joke, reddit was ruined long long time ago. Adam did an endorsement of Orb a few weeks back, got called out and did an apology.)

I’M STILL BLAMING CONOVER THO

Bastion and Transistor, sure. Without a doubt, imoactful clever stories that were well delivered.

Pyre always felt like a buggy mess tho. I tried multiple times to get into it but it’s just not on the level of the first two.

It’s a niche masterpiece, but my 600 hours of play time agrees I am in that niche

“Stacey was up front and the video itself…said it was AI generated. We were very careful to make sure it was clear that these were the words that the family believed Christopher would have to say,”

“I love the beauty in what Christopher, and I call him Christopher—I always call people by their last names, it’s a formality of the court—but I feel like calling him Christopher as we’ve gotten to know him today.”

Can’t have it both ways. If you understand this was fabricated AI then you did not “get to know him today”. The facts of the case were already self evident for guilt, but this needs to be a mistrial. We can not have a standard of fair justice when generated AI is treated like living breathing people.
