Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we revisit our 2017 series on 1999's Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver. We're interviewing Riley Cooper, a former colleague of Tim's who had a long career at Crystal Dynamics and worked on the title in level design and combat design roles. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Podcast breakdown: 1:01 Interview 1:07:10 Break 1:07:40 Outro Issues covered: the Universe coming together, getting in, making terrain layers in Photoshop, moving to the next thing, working on the combat, the parts that had to be there, incorporating lateral movement for combat, applying fighting game discipline, not inventing from whole cloth, rebuilding a camera system, design as open source, defensive patents, jamming so much into levels, spectral morphing and lack of follow-ups, blind ambition coming from Amy Hennig, being two weeks from ship for one to two years, time to market vs time to quality, people simply not knowing, jumping between genres, the victory of European labor laws, knowing how to build what you're building, a vacuum of upper management, being able to just make the game, the tension between business and creation, wanting to design without interference, execs who want to play with the toys, "problems down solutions up," wanting appropriate ownership at every level, getting the same letter at the end of two different projects, the feeling at the start vs the feeling in the middle, thoughtful refactoring, starting from the right constraints, locking yourself in a room with a design problem to find the solution, gameplay goes at the speed of thumbs, a sports game that's a video game first, good places to be from. Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Lord of the Rings, LucasArts, Solar Eclipse, Legacy of Kain (series), Tomb Raider (series), EA, Need for Speed (series), Sony, Atari 2600, Dave Morse, 3D0, Saturn, Noah Hughes, Amy Hennig, Silicon Knights, Denis Dyack, Seth Carus, Street Fighter 2, Super Mario 64, Jim Conrad, Andrew Hynek, Roberta Williams, Daniel Chayer-Bison, Pete Lake, Microsoft, X-COM, Fallout, Populous, Sean Vesce, Richard Lemarchand, Naughty Dog, Uncharted, Hitman, Hakan Almer, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.

404 Coyote vs Acme Lives Wolverine Carnage Dolly Parton Tim Curry Peter CullenDoom Scrolling IntroThe Foos are back after a night at The Glass House seeing Spineshank and (hed) p.e., complete with an aging-but-still-functioning mosh pit, brewery stops, stouts, cider, and late-night al pastor burritos.Then the fast-food nostalgia wars continue. The Hello Kitty x Godzilla McDonald's collection is almost complete, Burger King is coming after millennials with Dragon Ball Super toys, Jack in the Box may have a Simpsons Treehouse of Horror takeover coming, and Krispy Kreme already got them with Pokémon. Apparently adults with disposable income are the new Happy Meal demographic.Before Geeking Out, Joe and Steph pay tribute to three icons lost this week: Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, and Peter Cullen. They look back at Dolly's music, philanthropy and surprising Buffy connection; Tim Curry's legendary roles from Rocky Horror and Clue to Pennywise; and Peter Cullen's unmistakable Optimus Prime voice and the touching story behind how he created it.Geeking Out starts with Coyote vs. Acme finally making it into theaters after nearly becoming a tax write-off. The Foos revisit the bizarre road that nearly buried the completed Looney Tunes movie and why its survival became bigger than the movie itself.Then Marvel's Wolverine turns the violence all the way up ahead of its PS5 release, with dismemberment, brutal combat and Logan behaving exactly like Wolverine should. EA's long-missing Iron Man game also resurfaces after unfinished gameplay leaks online, finally proving the project still exists.Star Wars gets tactical with Zero Company, a turn-based Clone Wars-era game that Joe immediately compares to XCOM. Steph also dives into the newest extended look at GTA VI, including Vice City, Jason and Lucia, preorder bonuses and the question everyone still has: is this game actually going to release?They close Geeking Out with the sad news that Tippett Studio is shutting down after 35 years, marking the end of another major piece of practical-effects history tied to Star Wars, RoboCop, Starship Troopers and more. Plus, LA Comic Con costume planning begins with April O'Neil, Casey Jones and the increasingly dangerous possibility of Joe showing up as Raphael in a trench coat.Here's What I Would Do brings two career dilemmas: Marcus in Pasadena finally lands his dream job, only to learn everyone he trusts says the company is miserable to work for. Anthony in El Monte faces something even heavier — his family expects him to take over the restaurant his grandparents started, but preserving the family legacy might mean giving up the career and life he actually wants.ChaptersDoom Scrolling IntroSpineshank + (hed) p.e. at The Glass HouseGodzilla Hello Kitty collection + Dragon Ball Burger KingSimpsons Jack in the Box + Pokémon Krispy KremeFatality Dolly PartonFatality Tim CurryFatality Peter Cullen Optimus PrimeCoyote vs Acme finally hits theatersMarvel Wolverine PS5 brutalityLeaked Iron Man game footageStar Wars Zero CompanyGTA VI extended lookTippett Studio closes after 35 yearsLA Comic Con costume planningHere's What I Would Do Dream job with terrible reputationHere's What I Would Do Taking over the family restaurantOutro + Doom Scrolling OutroCoyote vs Acme, Marvel Wolverine, Wolverine PS5, Iron Man game, Star Wars Zero Company, GTA VI, Tippett Studio, Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, Peter Cullen, Optimus Prime, Dragon Ball Burger King, Hello Kitty Godzilla, The Foobar Show

It is with a heavy heart that we share that the XCOM and Star Wars mashup, Star Wars: Zero Company, seems pretty good. You have another video game to play this year. At least, that's what Rob told Patrick and Chia on this episode of Remap Radio, where we chat about turn-based Clone Wars, Twitch's shockingly honest admission about AI, why nobody should work at Saber Interactive, the great time Patrick's having repairing electronics in ReStory, and more.Links: Saber Interactive CEO Responds to Accusations, Twitch Makes AI Training Opt-Out.

¡Que pasa locos!Marco se nos cayó a última hora, pero Alex se sumó a la fiesta para salvar la tarde con Joaquín y Gringo. Empezamos con el clásico momento de ICG Vault jugando al Zoom Out, pasamos a rajar a gusto sobre la actualidad de la industria y la jugada de Microsoft dándole un nuevo Fallout a Obsidian (¿el fin de la era de Tod Howard?). Alex nos abre su corazón para guardar un minuto de silencio por ese XCOM 3 que jamás verá la luz y le damos un repaso a las luces y sombras de Hell is Us, el juego que ha conseguido que el "Joakin Zen" vuelva a transformarse en el destructor arisco de siempre. Para cerrar, analizamos lo mejor de La Velada del Año VI y abrimos un debate loquísimo sobre el impacto brutal que está teniendo la IA en la creación de videojuegos y el día a día. ¡Esperemos que os guste!

¡Que pasa locos!Programa de veranito, de esos en los que el calor aprieta, las noticias escasean y nos apetecía sentarnos a rajar de un poco de todo. ¡Que también se agradece!Empezamos calentando motores con un poco de salseo de internet y la última polémica del Xokas con Burger King. Joakin Dead sigue en su línea budista pero analítico, mientras le echamos un ojo a los comentarios del canal para hablar de grupos familiares de Steam, XCOM y esa loca idea de un Star Wars por turnos.En el apartado de novedades, saltó la sorpresa: Bethesda confirma que Fallout 5 ya es una realidad y que vienen en camino las remasterizaciones de Fallout 3 y New Vegas. Por su parte, Marco "El Tibio" nos trae sus primeras impresiones tras darle tres horitas a Pragmata... ¿sobrevivirá al filtro de no abandonarlo antes de un mes?Y para rematar el programa, abrimos tertulia futbolera con invitado en el plató para analizar la final del Mundial, el triunfo de la Selección, el juego marullero de Argentina y el show mediático de Donald Trump entregando la copa.¡Esperemos que os guste!

Moon and Sun! Caves of Qud returns for our summer music episode, as I grabbed some time with the composer Craig Hamilton! Since Qud is a dramaturgical triad, we couldn't NOT do a third episode talking with the creative mind behind the creative sounds of the game. We're talking Digital Audio Workstations, sci-fi literature, flamethrowers, traditional roguelikes, and so much more! The torsion of an external crank drags a rosin-slathered wheel against a metal cable, whose protestations emerge from the wooden case in a low, melodic groan. Part 1 of our Qud Qoverage focusing on the story and soundtrack can be found here Part 2 focusing on the gameplay and mechanics of Qud can be found here Other topics discussed: https://www.craigoryhamilton.com/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1247760/Caves_of_Qud_Soundtrack/ https://stumpyfrog.com/sfr24a-caves-of-qud-3lp/ https://eggplant.show/into-the-depths-caves-of-qud-finale http://www.decklinsdemise.com/mordor.htm https://store.steampowered.com/app/224500/Gnomoria/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultima_Ratio_Regum_(video_game) Custom RSS Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Music Transcript 00:00 - Intro Premable 2:17 - Interview Start! 3:14 - Craig's Musical Origins: Uncle's Yamaha Keyboard & Early Life 6:22 - Mixtapes, High School Bands & College Hardcore Synth Work 10:10 - Childhood Dream: Astronaut, Video Game Maker or Musician 11:50 - Childhood Gaming: Diablo 1, XCOM & Cinematic Music Influences 17:38 - Film Score Influences: Arrival, Blade Runner & Disney Jungle Book 19:00 - How Craig Got Hired: Dropsy Tracks & Caves of Qud Audition 24:24 - Composition Process: Flavour Text Prompts & Dev Collaboration 26:43 - “Onward”: Multiple Versions, Melancholy Quality & New Keyboard 33:53 - Diegetic Sound Design: Golgotha Flamethrower & Theme Park Composition 38:45 - Craig's Favorite Track: “Arrival” & Interstellar Inspiration 44:46 - “Bey Lah Heritage II”: Western Aesthetic, Harmonicas & Hindren Influence 47:36 - “Attack on Grit Gate”: Desperate Blown-Out Battle Sound Design 52:34 - Favorite Game Soundtracks: FF7, Nuclear Throne, Katamari Damacy 1:05:31 - Craig's 40 Hours of Qud: Exploration Style & Mutant Builds 1:10:47 - The Caves Music: Danger, Oppression & Caving YouTube Inspiration 1:15:14 - Cozy Art Lulling Players Into a False Sense of Security 1:18:36 - Gnome Moria, Ultima Ratio Regum & Procedural Generation Discussion 1:25:21 - Show Wind Down Next episode: BALL x PIT Contact us at grogpodzone@gmail.com! https://grogpod.zone Intro music: Caves of Qud OST - 3rd Spore Phase Outro music: Caves of Qud OST - Of Chrome, and How (Sultan's Song)

Didi Braguinha e André Rumjanek recebem Rodrigo Manique para uma conversa sobre jogos de miniaturas, usando o recém-anunciado jogo de XCOM como ponto de partida para explorar um universo que vai muito além dos board games tradicionais. Entre histórias sobre Warhammer, Star Wars, Halo e outros sistemas, o trio discute o que realmente define um miniature game, onde ele se diferencia de um wargame e por que esse tipo de hobby desperta tanta paixão nos jogadores.Ao longo do episódio, eles também conversam sobre campanhas, evolução de personagens, construção de cenários, colecionismo, FOMO e a experiência única de acompanhar miniaturas que acumulam histórias ao longo de várias partidas. Um bate-papo para quem sempre teve curiosidade sobre o hobby ou quer entender por que esses jogos conquistam fãs tão dedicados.Para saber mais sobre este episódio e os jogos mencionados: ⁠Jogos de Miniaturas vs Wargames: Entenda as diferenças⁠Se você ainda não conhece ou faz parte, fale conosco no nosso ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fabuloso Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.E para as redes sociais: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fabuloso Podcast no ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fabuloso Podcast no YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fabuloso Podcast no TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Para comprar camisa do Fabuloso (e outras):⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Deselegante⁠⁠

Künstliche Intelligenz hält immer stärker Einzug ins Tabletop-Hobby – von Kampagnenideen und Lore-Texten über Artwork bis hin zu Turnieranalysen. Doch ist KI nur ein praktisches Werkzeug oder verändert sie die kreative Seele unseres Hobbys?In dieser Folge sprechen wir über die Chancen und Risiken von KI im Tabletop: Wie nutzen wir KI selbst? Warum sorgt KI-Art für so viele Diskussionen? Welche Auswirkungen hat die Technologie auf Künstler, Content Creator und die Community? Außerdem werfen wir einen Blick auf Trench Crusade, KI-Moderation, zukünftige KI-Agenten und die Frage, ob „Human Made“ bald zum neuen Qualitätssiegel wird.Eine spannende Diskussion über Kreativität, Technologie und die Zukunft unseres Hobbys.Heute mit : Martin und FabianKEYWORDSStarcraft, Gothic Remake, Warhammer 40k, Warhammer, XCOM, Modiphius, KI, Künstliche Intelligenz, Tabletop, Tabletop Hobby, Wargaming, ChatGPT, Midjourney, Tabletop Community, Homebrew, Lore Writing, Kampagnenplanung, Rollenspiel, Miniaturen, 3D-Druck, Turnieranalyse, Kreativität, Zukunft des Hobbys, Trench Crusade, Content Creation, Szenario-Generator, Regelzusammenfassung, KI-Tools, Illustrationen, KI im Hobby, Human Made, Meta Analyse, AI Slop, Fanart, Prompting, Chaosium, Greg Stafford, Spektrum der Wissenschaft, RuneQuestWir sind der Podcast aus dem (Ruhr)Pott mit interessanten Themen und Gästen rund um das Thema TableTop, Brettspiele, Gesellschaftsspiele, Miniaturen, Geländebau, TableTop News.Weitere Informationen auf ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tablepott.de⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  oder in unserem Linktree : ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/TablePott⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠------- Links -------Webseite ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.tablepott.de ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Linktree : ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/TablePott⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠------- Folgen-Shownotes ------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- Spektrum der Wissenschaft 6/2026: https://www.spektrum.de/inhaltsverzeichnis/wird-ki-uns-ueberfluegeln-spektrum-der-wissenschaft-6-2026/2289569 - Interview mit Katharina Zweig:https://www.spektrum.de/news/wird-kuenstliche-intelligenz-uns-ueberfluegeln-katharina-zweig/2293055 - Spektrum Edition „Künstliche Intelligenz“:https://www.spektrum.de/pdf/kuenstliche-intelligenz-spektrum-edition-9-2026/2287156 - Spektrum Podcast mit Katharina Zweig: https://www.spektrum.de/podcast/wird-kuenstliche-intelligenz-den-menschen-ueberfluegeln-katharina-zweig/2293816  - ORF-Gespräch „Weiß die KI, dass sie nichts weiß?“:https://oe1.orf.at/programm/20260206/822475/Weiss-die-KI-dass-sie-nichts-weiss https://spikeybits.com/gw-ceo-said-no-ai-then-this-space-marine-art-dropped-with-6-fingers/?fbclid=IwY2xjawSWnl1leHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETF5RHFvcnlzQUR2R1l6aGpGc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHm-94U2ARd2xqCALVvnsVBER7RxKVfaOSCDRftPhd00saknJUAsDZoBZCXEF_aem_JrDFDq2rg4PFhqR5R4nLnA ------- Disclaimer -------The following music was used for this media project:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/TablePott⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Depuis son rachat par Elon Musk en 2022, Twitter, devenu X, a connu une transformation radicale. Nouveau nom, réduction des équipes, politique de modération remaniée : presque tout a changé. Mais la rupture la plus visible reste sans doute la coche bleue. Autrefois réservée aux personnalités et organisations dont l'identité avait été vérifiée, elle est devenue l'un des principaux avantages proposés aux abonnés payants.L'objectif affiché par Elon Musk était de réduire la dépendance de la plateforme à la publicité, en développant les revenus tirés des abonnements. Et X semble désormais prêt à serrer davantage la vis pour pousser ses utilisateurs gratuits vers l'offre Premium. Selon Engadget, la plateforme a discrètement abaissé les limites quotidiennes imposées aux comptes non vérifiés. Ces utilisateurs ne peuvent plus publier que 50 messages originaux et 200 réponses par jour. La différence avec l'ancien plafond est spectaculaire : celui-ci permettait jusqu'à 2 400 publications quotidiennes. Pour les messages originaux, la baisse dépasse donc 95 %.La modification n'a pas fait l'objet d'une grande annonce. Elle a été repérée par des internautes sur X et Reddit, après une mise à jour de la page d'assistance officielle. Lorsqu'une personne atteint l'une de ces limites, la plateforme doit afficher un message d'erreur indiquant précisément le plafond dépassé. Derrière cette décision, la stratégie commerciale paraît assez claire. X cherche à rendre l'usage gratuit plus contraignant pour mieux valoriser son abonnement Premium. La formule la moins chère coûte trois euros par mois, ou trente-deux euros par an. Un tarif d'appel qui doit convaincre les utilisateurs les plus actifs de sortir leur carte bancaire.La plateforme peut toutefois avancer un autre argument : la lutte contre les bots, ces comptes automatisés capables de publier d'énormes volumes de contenus, parfois pour diffuser de la publicité, manipuler les conversations ou mener des campagnes de désinformation. X avait déjà introduit, en octobre 2025, une rubrique « À propos de ce compte », permettant notamment de connaître le pays d'origine associé à un profil. Mais la mesure suscite beaucoup de critiques. Sur X comme sur Reddit, certains utilisateurs y voient moins un outil de modération qu'un nouveau péage numérique. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

But what use is an invisible planet? It's not like material planets could aid us in realizing the lore is a Piccolo Situation, sealing off dimensions, returning a secret planet every 1000 years, referencing other ages of heroes, determining who/what has been "born," refusing to accept reality, realizing our hero is out over his skis, depending on Chaz to fight, rejecting an order from god, accessing Luts' memory piece-meal, meeting another talking sword, referencing past protagonists, and creating a future free of terror. To tell you the truth, I don't know what's going on. 00:00:00 XCOM 2  00:02:27 Intro 00:04:20 The Age of Fables 00:33:59 Esper Mansion 00:37:18 Elsydeon 00:43:55 Dezolis Spaceport 00:44:58 Real Net 00:51:02 Outro  Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we continue our series on Dungeon Keeper. We talk about the weird mix of genres this game presents, and the unique problems that presents to level design and for the player. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: To level 8 (B) and 10 (T) Issues covered: the genre mix, complexity, narrative genre and setting, Murphy's Law (vs Moore's Law), pulling from their own conventions, balancing difficulty, not knowing if it's scripted, requirements for creatures, needing to read the manual, not knowing what the rules are, explaining things to the player and getting over the hump, what some of the rooms do, knowing when to go, using level design for flow, having a clever level with four wizards, grim places the game visits, dungeon crawling, the impact of audio design on RTSes, a little discursion into dynamic music, musical choices, hearing what your units are getting done, understanding game state from audio, favorite codes from back in the day, implementing cheat code systems, giving players options. Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Overlord, Civilization (series), Evil Genius, Chris Corry, StarCraft, WarCraft, Populous, Republic Commando, Dungeons & Dragons, Blizzard, Homeworld, John Carpenter, Russell Shaw, X-COM, mysterydip, Konami, Gradius, Contra, Starfighter (series), Belmont, Penny Arcade, Daron Stinnett, Jedi Knight, Outlaws, id Software, Troy Mashburn, Adventure, Kaeon, Hitman, Bruce Lee, Majora's Mask, Nintendo, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.

Lords: Chris Fabian https://fgiesen.wordpress.com/ Topics: Oops, my 3D printer became a hobby GTA's AI is not trying to screw with you with its sudden lane changes and T-boning you at intersections, it's just oblivious. (Probably.) Esper says: "I can confirm the traffic AI in Cyberpunk 2077 is still hilarious. I set my car to 'auto drive' and after maybe 30 seconds it took a hard right into the ocean. Maybe that's lore accurate, who knows." Alberic Whale and the Enigma Layer https://thespinoff.co.nz/the-best-of/31-12-2018/summer-reissue-the-mystery-of-zach-new-zealands-all-too-miraculous-medical-ai https://thespinoff.co.nz/society/13-01-2020/rip-zach-probe-finds-serious-wrongdoing-over-miracle-medical-ai Between What I See and What I Say…, by Octavio Paz https://www.wisdomportal.com/PoetryAnthology/OctavioPaz-Anthology.html Microtopics: A coffee shop that exists here because of the port of Oakland. Popping unroasted coffee beans into your mouth like peanuts. The worst tasting and most caffeinated cup of coffee you've ever had. Your local library. Things that should not be businesses. Three possible purposes of universities. Finding a new hobby (derogatory) 3D printing a selection of action figures for your wedding. That one person you know who's really into 3D printers. Why having a broken 3D printer counts as a hobby where having a broken refrigerator is just a situation. Yanking out some gunk with pliers in hopes that that'll fix it. Your 3D printer breaking halfway through your wedding figurine project so you have to make the other other half out of milled aluminum. IBM Selectric Typewriters shipping with a repair guy who lives in your spare bedroom in case it breaks. Amazon sending an Amazon warrior to repair your 3D printer but since you only paid for the cheap extended warranty she's allowed to attack anybody including you. Whether Balatro is trying to deliberately find weaknesses in your build. Higher fidelity graphics coming with expectations of higher fidelity traffic modeling. Car AI in open world games being as dumb as the developers can get away with, except for in Cyberpunk 2077, where they're dumber than the developers can get away with. Whacking at it until it's good enough to ship. Traffic tuning in GTA Vice City. Playing games with really smart, effective AI, like Chessmaster 2000 and X-Com, and realizing that actually having really smart AI is no fun. Skating around with rollerblades on your elbows and knees. Everything's a tuna can. Three car accidents in six weeks. Conscientiously objecting to military service so they insist you get a driver's license instead. Driving through a haunted house to train the braking reflex in response to being startled. Whatever happened to ol' Alby Whale? The AI assistant named Zack turning out to just be a dude named Zack. Adorable tiny food delivery robots who turn out to just be remote controlled by a guy hiding around the corner. Waymo cars blocking major thoroughfares for hours at a time. Multitasking between all the most stressful, confusing driving situations. Self-driving cars (allegedly) turning self-driving off half a second before impact so the impact is blamed on the human operator. Several hundred tons of liquid nitrogen cooled supercomputer. Blaming your spelling errors on The Enigma Layer. Having seen more proof of your AI assistant than you have of god. It's scammers and hucksters all the way down. Whether DLSS is taking away game developer jobs. What happens when you go from a three word Markov model to a five word markov model. A giant prank with no particular end-game in sight. Acts of speech. Poetry as synesthesia. Trying to explain in words why that cat is acting weird when the cat doesn't think in words at all. My Psychosis, my Bicycle and I, by Fritz B. Simon. Trying to figure out how football works when you can't see the players, only the referee. Feeling some type of way. Trying to take musical ideas and apply them outside of the realm of music. Creating words that dance around concepts. Getting stuck forever in your cringe phase. Opportunities to write the same program over and over again. A melancholy linked list implementation. Passive-aggressive C code. Java Enterprise Abstract Singleton Proxy Factory Bean. Remember printed manuals? The international obfuscated C code contest. What made the 3D accelerated demo scene interesting again. How much code you can fit in 64k if you don't link to anything. Secret Topics.

Le 14 décembre dernier, une attaque terroriste a endeuillé la célébration de Hanoukka à Bondi Beach, à Sydney. Quinze personnes ont perdu la vie. Mais dans les minutes qui ont suivi les coups de feu, une autre machine s'est mise en route, implacable : celle de la désinformation sur les réseaux sociaux, et en particulier sur X.Très vite, un homme d'affaires pakistanais, parfaitement innocent, s'est retrouvé projeté au centre d'un déferlement de haine. Son seul tort : porter le même nom que l'un des terroristes. Sa photo a été massivement relayée, accompagnée d'accusations infondées. Il a reçu des menaces de mort, sa famille a été harcelée. Une erreur d'identité banale, mais aux conséquences dramatiques. Et malgré l'existence des Community Notes, censées corriger les fausses informations, le mal était fait. Selon le Center for Countering Digital Hate, près de trois quarts des contenus de désinformation liés aux élections américaines de 2024 n'ont jamais été corrigés. Et lorsqu'une note apparaît, il faut parfois attendre plusieurs dizaines d'heures.Or, sur les réseaux sociaux, le temps est un luxe. Une étude du MIT montre que les fausses informations se propagent jusqu'à six fois plus vite que les vraies. Et sur X, ce phénomène est désormais encouragé par le modèle économique de la plateforme. Les créateurs sont rémunérés en fonction de l'engagement généré par leurs publications. Peu importe la véracité, seule compte la réaction. Plus ça choque, plus ça rapporte. Résultat : une vidéo de feux d'artifice de Noël, organisée de longue date par un club local, a été présentée comme des « célébrations arabes » après l'attentat. Des millions de vues avant d'être démentie. Pire encore, l'intelligence artificielle Grok, intégrée à X, a inventé de toutes pièces le nom du prétendu héros qui aurait désarmé un terroriste. Un nom fictif, issu d'un site frauduleux créé le jour même.Pendant ce temps, le véritable héros de Bondi Beach, Ahmed al-Ahmed, un Australien d'origine syrienne qui a risqué sa vie pour sauver des inconnus, est resté largement invisible dans le flot médiatique. Il a fallu du temps pour que la vérité émerge, pendant que le mensonge, lui, faisait le tour du monde. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we continue our series on Fez. We talk about its platforming and how it fits to taste, game style, and rule escalation. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: More cubes! Issues covered: platforming feelings and taste, inspirations and how they play out here, additional move set, floaty physics, a mental game with mostly generous platforming, a game that takes place in your head rather than in your fingers, seeking high highs, sloppiness and guiding the player, no longer seeing the whole world but only the tells, the pleasure of figuring things out, checking out the achievements, how many people get everything, the craft of the game, wanting to feel capable, finding a solution that was not the intended solution, dominated by the puzzle side, those moments where you give a big "no way," extending a simple idea and iterating on it for a fleshed-out game, iterating ideas, a chain of implication, not making the leaps of logic too large, ladders that line up and teach you how to think about the world, not knowing whether you can do a thing yet, not wanting to diminish the revelations, puzzles games Brett hasn't finished and why, editorial from the publisher and Key Performance Indicators, finding a tribe for your indie game, side games, smaller and more cohesive teams, a choose-your-own-email, having an experience, leaving endings open. Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Hollow Knight, Indie Game: The Movie, Phil Fish, Nintendo, Mario (series), Little Big Planet, Guacamelee, Super Mario Galaxy, Demons's Souls, Dark Souls, Kena: Bridge of Spirits, Tomb Raider (2013), The Matrix, Deep Thoughts/Jack Handey, MYST, Pierre de Fermat, Megaman, Resident Evil, The Witness, Braid, The Talos Principle, Obduction, Cyan Worlds, Super Meat Boy, Fallout, X-COM, mysterydip, Mass Effect, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Twin Peaks, Half-Life, While We're Young, Noah Baumbach, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.  Next time: More Fez!

After over 70 hours of sitting at my PC fighting aliens, I can safely say that XCOM 2 isn't just one of the best tactical RPGs I've ever played, but one of the best games I've ever played, period.If you've never played it, XCOM 2 is a tactical RPG, like Fire Emblem or Final Fantasy Tactics. You move your soldiers around on a board game-esque grid, and take turns with the computer, who's doing the same with aliens and robots. But in between missions, you're traveling the world gathering resources and using them to upgrade both your troops and your ship. Aliens have taken over the planet, and it's up to you to take it back. It's a little tough to pick up out of the gate, but once you're over the hump, it's addictive as hell.My guest this week is the winner of our Extra-Life charity auction from last December, Robert. He picked this game and now I can see why. We get into the meat of XCOM 2, talk about the superb War of the Chosen DLC, talk about our favourite soldier/ability/equipment combinations, and laugh at the bulshit that is missing a 94% shot with your ass on the line.And before we save the world, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week, we HAVE to talk a little Switch 2.
