How AI in Gaming is Impacting the Industry

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming game development by enhancing how games are made and experienced. It’s not just about making characters smarter, it’s about creating more engaging, interactive, and personalized experiences for players.

Here’s how AI is making a difference:

Smarter NPCs: Non-playable characters behave more realistically, adapting to your playstyle.

Dynamic Worlds: AI adjusts game environments and difficulty in real time for a unique experience.

Content Creation: AI generates levels, graphics, and environments, saving time for developers.

Voice and Interaction: Games respond to voice commands, making gameplay feel natural.

Personalization: AI tailors content, recommendations, and difficulty to your preferences.

Development Support: AI automates repetitive tasks, improves testing, and ensures games are bug-free.

Anti-Cheat and Analytics: AI keeps games fair and adjusts difficulty to balance fun and challenge.

For businesses, AI leads to better games, more loyal players, and faster, cost-effective development. It’s a game-changer for the industry, creating smarter, more immersive experiences for everyone.

Concept: RPG party member whose sexual orientation and aesthetic preferences dynamically respond to the player's character creation choices specifically to make them not attracted to you. Like, not just gender-wise: did you make your character buff? They like 'em skinny. Made yourself skinny? Now they like 'em buff. Just maximally contrary along every conceivable axis of attraction. This even affects how they relate to other NPCs in your party, to the extent that if you're trying to play matchmaker, the optimal strategy is to make your character as dissimilar as possible to whomever want to pair them up with.

Giant hug for everyone who has been onto the game's Steam discussion board and replied with classy snark to people grumbling on there.

I'm reluctant to do that as a developer but when I see you guys doing it, just know that I'm cheering for you.

it's interesting talking to young men on the internet because they are, by a large majority, motivated by a gleeful and unfocused ressentiment towards basically everyone and everything. there is really very little concern for truth but more notably there is a semi-concious rejection of usefulness of action and of making things better.

the appeal of policies, actions or rhetoric is that punishment and cruelty are inflicted, that people and entities are laid low. they are not motivated by a desire for better things to happen, but for worse things to happen to those they resent. And they like being angry and resentful, they like it more than they like any hobby or activity or product.

HEADS UP ARTISTS

The Web Development website Wix decided to join Adobe in the dark side & change their Terms and conditions to "grant [them] a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, and worldwide license" to use your portfolio for AI.

This does not only affect artists using this website to make their portfolios and demo reels, but online shop owners, commission pages, art galleries, game development websites and much more.

If you work in the film art or game industry and you have work under NDA or demo reels with your past works from existing film and games. EVEN IF IT'S HIDDEN, PRIVATED OR IN YOUR DRAFTS, they have all the right to steal your work and guess what? You're probably gonna get in trouble instead of wix for having them on your website.

I've used wix for 10 years but fuck them. It's time to jump ship to another website. Please make sure to remove ALL traces of your work from their site and spread the word.

Something really great about the persona 2 cast is that they all individually fucking SUCK to talk to casually. Every single one of them. They are all infuriating. We have:

Tatsuya, who will stare at you blankly if you try to initiate conversation (IS) and will dip without saying a word afterward (EP)

Batsuya, who will scoff and brush you off/otherwise act dismissive

Eikichi, who might honestly be the best to talk to in the IS crew and that is not saying much, who WILL talk extremely loudly over you (probably not on purpose?) and will not be paying particularly close attention to the conversation beyond whatever he wants to say (gets points for talking about his gf. gets points taken away for constantly talking about his gf)

Lisa, who will automatically assume bad faith and will be rude to you the entire conversation unless you manage to defuse her temper (good luck)

Jun, who is uncommunicative at BEST and requires an encyclopedic knowledge of flowers, metaphor and body language just to get a HINT on what he’s thinking, and who will be extremely polite but completely unhelpful. If you tried asking him what he wants for dinner I guarantee it will be the longest 30 minutes of your life as he goes “oh I have no opinion :) whatever you want. :))” EXCEPT HE DOES HAVE OPINIONS. He has SO MANY OPINIONS. He is Expecting you to be able to pick up on his “obvious” clues. He will be passive aggressive if you don’t. (Jun babygirl you suck so bad I love u)

Maya, who is a delight but will very quickly become grating if you try to talk to her about anything serious as she hits you with the white suburban mom's "how to live a happy, healthy life" lifecoach slogans. You can’t even mention, like, stepping in a puddle or something without her hitting you with the positivity beam.

Yukino is great actually. 10/10. She’s fabulous we love her. Incredible conversationalist, chill and fun and easy to get along with. But she’s from Persona One, she doesn’t Count.

Ulala, who WILL bring up her relationship problems in every conversation within 10 minutes at least once. Any longer and she will start talking about Maya.

Do I even need to explain Baofu. Have you seen him.

And finally, Katsuya, who is a cop and a kiss ass and Very Obvious about these things. Also he can't talk to women. He can barely talk to men. Help Him.

And yet they all work wonderfully as a group. They are so annoying I love them

So i get this one art scam a lot, a person asks if i am open for commisions and then asks me to draw their sons pet, i get these a lot, i actually got another one WHILE i was making this post, but these bots? have been getting way more advanced, so i tried fucking with it a bit.

and like, no real person would ask a pixel artist, who mostly does video game sprites for a drawing of their childs dog? especially if i give them the option to draw a sexy furry dogman. right?

modern au with ais where you're acquaintances, but not really friends yet, and he's sitting near you while you're blasting music through your headphones. he wonders how long it'll take for you to realize he can hear it, letting you sit peacefully for 3 songs before he recognizes one of them. it's one of his favourite bands—one coming to your city soon. so he finally taps your shoulder and doesn't hide a smile when you startle and push one side behind your ear.

"i didn't know you liked that band," he comments and lets you come to your own realization of how loud your music was.

you laugh and apologize to cover up any embarrassment, but he makes no other teasing remark. he doesn't even move, the only sign that he's thinking is when his fingers come up to fiddle with one of his earrings. "did you know they're coming to the city soon?"

and of course you know. you got a stupid notification about it that taunted you, seeming to know you had no one to go with. no one until ais smiles and says he didn't really want to go alone, and asks if you'd be free that friday night for him to come pick you up.

the thing is that ais doesn't actually mind going to concerts alone. he's gone to near a dozen by himself saying he'd rather go alone and enjoy the music than ask somebody who may or may not even know them. but now you're here, and finally, finally, with some kind twist of fate, he has a good reason to talk to you and ask you out.

I have a lot of respect and admiration for KO_OP. You know the saying "be the change you want in the world"? They are that saying applied to making videogames. We need more indie cooperatives like them.
