[VVGtv] Minecraft NOT Suing FortressCraft

VVGtv reported allegations from DJ Keemstar, a seemingly reputable source that works right with the developer of ProjectorGames.

The source was unreliable, and it has been confirmed that Mojang is NOT suing ProjectorGames.

Minecraft is -not- suing FortressCraft.

VVGtv was misled by a rumor that was started by FortressCraft's very own DJ Keemstar. Apparently this was a scheme to stir up the press.

VVGtv apologizes for reporting an erroneous rumor that was believed to be news but was in fact false.

So, who is this DJ Keemstar relative to the project? I thought he was the programmer but found out later it was someone else.

He's just some annoying asshole that picks on people not mentally capable of defending themselves on Xbox Live. He has a large following of 12 years olds.

Wow black ball them immediately.

DJ Keemstar is the "PR person" for FortressCraft... sadly.

I checked FC out, not really my kind of "game", but interesting.

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.

Einhander197225d ago (Edited 25d ago )

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.

I_am_Batman26d ago (Edited 26d ago )

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.

Number1TailzFan26d ago

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

helicoptergirl26d ago

Takes "hand holding" in games to a whole new level.
