Just cropping / pinch to zoom

I have a Kasa camera mounted to the wall and and a Yi 4k plus streaming over a local RTMP server mounted to the top bracket for the top down view

Also know you can play 2 player local natively built into the story in both games so if you have a roommate or SO it's a really fun time!

Perhaps but I can't see anyone who is interested in creating and communicating fake worlds eschewing the idea too much. If you make a fake world, there's no way you could ever 'get it all out' since you're just one guy. This would open up that possibility to make a world bigger than yourself and what you can get out of your brain

E: Here's a long worldbuilding thread about it -- https://www.reddit.com/r/worldbuilding/comments/186cspn/your_thoughts_on_the_use_of_ai_for_worldbuilding/

Seems mixed.

But not me -- None of them have ever reached my bar except for BG3 -- I care less about video game stories and more about mechanics/freedom of choice to be fair

Maybe now, but everyone was afraid to fund 100MM BG3 because they thought no one wanted CRPG and they want Fortnite or whatever. Hopefully Larian spawns more people who actually care about their users instead of just greed

I agree -- that's why I never saw the games I dreamed of -- Greed. Not some lack of skill, ideas or ability to execute

yes

None of those hit for me like BG3 -- It's the perfect CRPG game.

Yeah -- I just mean their ability to make a system for video games is better than paper adaptation

They do ~6B a year and clear about a billion, so that's actually like 10% of their profit which is a lot for a company that big -- wow!

I think the way video game devs/people are (from what I can see from outside) they are well poised to realize someone making an LLM or a finetune or whatever you want to call it -- that produces master level dialogue/stories/whatever is (will be) a skill just like storytelling/writing is.

If I were a JRR Tolkien or Herbert with a universe in my mind, it would be so much more pleasing to make an engine that generates anything from that world that to just write out a few stories from it.

Sounds cool to me

You only get one BG3 every lifetime though -- It was how I thought games would be when I was a kid almost perfectly, but it is the only one...

100% the future. Like has anyone put all the billion pages of lore from TES into a GPT finetune? Surely that would make better dialogue than HALT! for the 900000000 time right?

Divinity 2 mechanics > BG3 even though BG3 is obviously the ultimate masterpiece. Pumped to see what they do

Wow -- great one I haven't heard this before

Similarly if you shit talk yourself in your head to motivate yourself it really will eventually start to condition you that way even if it does motivate you

As someone who hasn't had to go through anything that hard, finally accepting this one was so important
