  1. The industry wants #LarianStudios to fail 👎

    The only make me preorder #Divinity 🤣

    I don't care if they use #AI or not. I want a good game, which means being done by real people without hidden agendas.

  2. Yesterday he admits to using LLM's for coming up with content/ideas. Today, he is complaining about RAM prices. It doesn't take an economist to understand the concepts of supply and demand and cause and effect.

    I will simplify it for them:

    Do not use LLM's if you don't like the price of RAM and SSD's going up. By using LLM's to create your slop you are creating the demand for more RAM. :NoAI:

    Swen Vincke says the price of RAM and SSDs means Larian will be doing lots of optimisation in Divinity's early access 'that we didn't necessarily want to do at that point in time'

  3. 🕹️ Larian’s CEO Swen Vincke pushes back on claims that generative AI is cutting jobs or boosting dev speed. He says the tech hasn’t improved efficiency and that human actors remain essential. The debate sparked by Bloomberg and The Verge raises questions for open‑source game devs. Curious what’s really happening at Divinity? #Larian #GenerativeAI #SwenVincke #Divinity

  4. Analising the #TGA on cold, I believe it's the best.

    All #TheGameAwards always had one big problem, one big elephant in the room. Too many ads? Too large monologs? Too many ads? Too much non-gaming stars? Did I say too many ads?

    This year is was very well packaged. There were ads, but at least nothing to drag the show. People were concise, and the greatest monologue by #SwenVincke was on point.

    5/5

  5. Larian CEO Swen Vincke laments short-sightedness of game publishers

    "Greed has been fucking this whole thing up for so long, since I started," Vincke said, while collecting the GDCA Best Narrative award for Baldur's Gate 3.

    [..]

    "You can make reserves. Just slow down a bit. Slow down on the greed. Be resilient, take care of the people, don't lose the institutional knowledge that's been built up in the people you lose every single time, [..]"
