Violence is a product of one of the most primal emotions known to humans – that of anger and rage. For more than a century, entertainment media have given us plenty examples that celebrate or abhor actions borne out of such emotions – be it War and Peace in literature or A Clockwork Orange in films. No culture has been a stranger to violence and such books or movies have utilized it to entertain or enlighten us for decades.
Microsoft recently revealed its plans to incorporate Copilot directly into video games, with Minecraft being the first showcased example.
F*** AI
"Hey Copilot, what's a good meme to prove I dislike AI".... https://giphy.com/clips/sou...
Two trillion dollar company that just can't wait to put as many people possible out of work as fast as possible.
It feels like every single thing they do is making gaming worse and destroying the industry.
....you know it takes people to program the AI.... right? It isnt like it is sentient. We haven't reach skynet level of situation or anywhere close to the matrix just yet.
That's next Thursday.
It takes a people to program the AI then that AI is used for who knows how many games eliminating countless jobs which only grows as AI is used for more and more game creation functions.
What you're saying is so ridiculously short sighted and truly larking any kind of understanding and foresight.
Why all the hate? Im actually excited about this! Always wanted this kind of immersion, and an AI companion with me all the time helping me out knowing the status of my skills/inventory/progress and giving me tips on the best approach or how to craft something specific is game changing for the industry.
Hate all you want about AI, but this is just the start and I can see the potential already. You wont be complaining in the next 5-10 years about this, but rather complain if a game hasn’t implemented it.
Yes we can't wait for the work of others to be used without the need to pay them so that MS can profit even more from the people they fire.
There is no chance I'd ever use something like this, especially if it's not part of the core game design, but a layer on top of it. It's way too much handholding. Many games already feel like busy work, because they don't let the player figure things out on their own. Having a real-time interactive guide defeats the purpose of playing the game in the first place in my opinion.
If this were to become the standard like you predict, we'll see more and more video games get away with bad design, because people will just be used to ask for help from the AI companion anyway.
Well Nintendo don't need this with some of their games these days, with invincible characters, items, easy bosses etc.. they do the hand holding built in
The Microsoft Store has hinted at the upcoming release of Minecraft: Bedrock Edition on Valve's digital distribution platform, Steam.
1 major advantage to this will be launching it straight from SteamVR. You have to make a custom shortcut to get it working right now in VR.
This is good news. It will be much easier to get it installed on my devices without using workarounds.
The Minecraft 1.21 Tricky Trials update's combat and technical aspects make it a fitting choice to bring in one missing crafting recipe.
If violent video games created violent individuals then GTA would have created 10s of millions of violent felons. It did not.
If violent video games created violent individuals then Japan and Canada and Europe would have far more violent felons (seeing as they play the same violent games and watch the same violent media as the US)
Its both but more illusion. This is because sick ppl are delusional but their acts are realistic. Anything can inspire and be a trigger, games, movies, books, home life etc.
Which came first:
WWII or Call of Duty?
Violent video games don't cause violence. There is some evidence to suggest that it can stimulate aggression...to the same degree that sports or music or movies or even talking to people can incite similar emotions. It's honestly a ridiculously insulting vendetta that these parents and politicians are pursuing and it takes attention away from the real issues behind these shootings.
Still, if the industry's reliance on violence isn't actually damaging to society, it IS at least getting a little stale if you ask me. It's sort of become like a crutch for developers to fall back on because they're unwilling to explore territory that isn't proven.
do people even need to ask?
how many Gamers are there in the world and how many fatality's are due to gamer?
seriously has everyone on this planet lost there common sense
