First the lolcowlizers, then the artists and now VAs are being replaced with AI. Is it Christmas again already?

When blue collar jobs were at risk due to automation it was ok because you cant stop progress and people needed to seek other work fields. Now that AI is targeting 'artists' and other white collar fields its the end of the world and AI is too dangerous.

Don't be dense. Most artist are blue collar people trying to get by. The funny thing here is that white collar jobs do the tasks that AI would be really good at doing but since they're the ones making the decisions, that won't happen. The perfect example was with the screenwriters, AI is still very far from being able to write a proper script but it could easily replace movie execs.

A blue-collar worker is a working class person who performs manual labor or skilled trades.

The term was adopted because of the darker-colored clothing these workers wore. Some fields that fall into this category include construction, manufacturing, maintenance, and mining. Blue-collar were once perceived to be less educated, low-skilled, and of a lower social class but that perception is changing.

relating to people who do physical work rather than mental work, and who usually do not work in an office

And the c0ns00mers will happily continue to c0ns00me. If you spend money on entertainment in 2024 you are an idiot, plain and simple.

All DRM developers deserve to be put against the wall. No mercy.

Total DRM Death

We pirates keep on winning. Once downloaded, no need to fear DRM. Once downloaded, no need to fear 100 Gbs of update. Once downloaded, just enjoy the fucking game.

"Japan does x better" is a meme of course but with voice acting it seems to be the actual case. To my understanding it is a well respected occupation there and I haven't heard any real negative news about Japanese VAs and they don't go on Twitter smelling their own farts.

Don't worry, Japan is westernizing itself too

The internet is so fake and gay now I can't tell if this is ironic or someone's fetish.


Halo infinite has been turned into a tactical RPG using Forge. Almost want to make a thread on it.

I think this is Baalbuddy, so it's a commission.

So it's a parody, but it's still hard to tell since it has weird shit associated with coomies and the mommy dommie crowd too.

Im imagining the possibilities with AI voice, if you add some scripting you could do away with Mass Effect canned lines and dialogue trees and have a simple word query string/google search and have the NPC's fully converse on topics. Then the shenanigans of making them say absurd things and the coomers making degenerate mods, but we stopped locking up freaks and wierdos so thats the world we inherited. A future where voice actors get hired to read a string of nonsense words so that the AI can cobble together and get paid for one hours work while the codemonkey make fully voiced 40 hours cinematic experiences and having an install size that isnt 100GB.

Seems more of an indie thing than a triple A thing. Indies can get huge mileage out of AI lines and have lots of voiced dialog they other wise wouldn't. While Triple A just don't give a fuck. I would be surprised if it was done on a company basis instead of a third party licensing their trained voices. Like how everyone would use Havoc in the past rather than doing their own physics engines. Will be interesting to see how licensed voices work. Instead of sound alike Obi Wan get the scottish prick to babble away for a few hours and use that to voice young Obi Wan and pay a flat fee per thing going forward.

The solution to voice acting being too expensive is not to have voice acting.

Reading > listening.

Reading?! might as well buy a book!

On a more serious note, trying to play a game in a language I am not fluent in did give me the slightest bit of sympathy for the "reading is hard" crowd. There are probably a lot of people out there who read a lot slower than the speed someone speaks at, and who are bad enough at reading that doing it for long periods of time counts as effort. This is a pretty damning observation on the state of education, but it seems like a pretty large segment of the potential customers, especially for AAA.

But that itself in a way is working against one of the few positive things games have going for themselves, being a driving motor for education. I'm pretty sure half of the users in here found the motivation to learn English by playing games with a dictionary by their side.
