Inzoi's launch is going better than I expected with 'very positive' reviews and 87,000 concurrent players and everyone is almost being normal about it (www.pcgamer.com)

Will anyone even need this with Tomodachi Life 2 just around the corner?

I’m sure a lot of people will enjoy…ahem…making their ideal lifelike woman.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I downloaded it last night and plan on playing it tonight for a while.

I was totally stoked for this game until I learnt they use genAI then it was an instant no thanks from me.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I boycott any games that make use of AI, digital art, computers, or the printing press. If it's not carved into a cave wall I don't play.

In what way are they using generative AI?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Per Steam page:

AI Generated Content Disclosure The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Players can generate unique textures for character outfits and various items based on text input. They can also create 3D objects from image input, which can be used as interior decorations or accessories, and add distinctive motions to their Zoi using video input. Additionally, the actions and thoughts of Zois are controlled through sLM technology, enabling more engaging and intuitive interactions.

That actually makes me want to play it more. Solid use of technology.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 week ago

Honestly, this is close to an ideal use of it, IMO

You still have human devd making the game, but if I had a specific bed spread I wanted in game, this gives me a bit of power

I know Lemmy hates AI in all use cases, but that does sound pretty cool to me

[+] [email protected] -8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I am opposed to genAI in its current form for a number of personal ethical reasons. I can still admit that it sounds cool, but in its current form I cannot support genAI.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago (4 children)

That's definitely a you problem. I think this is a cool use of it. It's like the person that thought the TV was just a fad.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well there is the part where all AI is controlled and developed by a group of fashist billionaires that primarily use it to spread false information and further their power, money and influence while destroying democracy, self expression and art. They are developed by stealing, exploiting and destroying the environment.

It is completely reasonable to hate AI in its current form even when presented with a cool and actually useful use case.

Looking forward to it further down the road in development. I do wonder why these dollhouse sims are so rare, since they're so popular.

[–] [email protected] 40 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (11 children)

I've read its hard to make one of quality, with all the interactions that have to happen between systems and entities.

[–] [email protected] 52 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Best dollhouse sim is clearly Dwarf Fortress

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 week ago

I hate that this isn't just not wrong, its 100% accurate.

Never heard of this game until now and looked at the trailer on Steam. It looks like a modern version of The Sims minus building houses. Everyone liked The Sims so I imagine this selling well too.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

You can build houses!

[–] [email protected] 45 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I think the more important thing its missing is EA.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

But it is in EA.
