Quoting: eev

Regardless of any thoughts on it one thing remains clear - the more AI generation is used for the little things "it's just this, it's just that!" - the more it will be accepted, and the more it will replace actual people. We'll see less actual art, less real intentional character in what we see - and more slop with melting consoles.

Gotta be real with you, this sounds hollow when you constantly promote ARC Raiders. Regardless of wether or not the actors signed off on it, there's nothing in there that needed it and it's just a severe cost cutting measure that'll lead to lower quality voice work the more accepted it is.

I'm still going to report on things as they evolve with generative AI, regardless of my feelings - that's the point of that.

a significantly reworked installer, which also now includes bootloader selection

I can vouch that CachyOS installer included a bootloader selection screen since I've first tried it (more than a year ago). Maybe even earlier. :)

I'm not too clued up on it, but it seems it was done differently before. Direct from their blog post "bootloader selection has been moved directly into the installer".

Quoting: mr-victoryMaybe they contacted the recently expelled team member? They worked on hardware & handheld support.

Going by further comments, nope, they used a shared mailbox.

If they're closing their studio it will be likely an income and tax situation, if they kept selling the game someone would have to continue doing all the taxes and general admin on behalf of anyone involved.

Quoting: Cley_FayeIs that a new info box at the bottom of posts? Nice.

Not new exactly, but the visual style was recently tweaked to look a lot nicer.

Quoting: Liam DaweThis is normal stuff for us. There is nothing odd about it. This is what we do.

That's totally fine. But I will keep finding it odd.

I'm just at a loss as to what is "odd" about it. The entire purpose of the website is to highlight gaming on Linux, working or not.

Quoting: Liam DaweWhat's odd about it?

It's an article informing readers about a title that could be the next big popular multiplayer game, and how it will likely not work.

Again, it's my job to inform people about gaming on Linux. That is why we exist. That includes times where a potentially massive game will not work. For all the people reading, emailing, searching on Google and asking about it across social media and everywhere else. This is normal stuff for us. There is nothing odd about it. This is what we do.

Quoting: pbWhat an odd piece of information to publish on GamingOnLinux.

What's odd about it? It's an article informing readers about a title that could be the next big popular multiplayer game, and how it will likely not work. This is pretty standard stuff for us.

I have fond memories of the audio just being really creepy when playing it on Amiga. The atmosphere was unmatched.
