    What Video Games Are You Currently Playing

    in General Banter

    Posted · Edited by o00o

    I recently installed No Rest For the Wicked and immediately noticed the clunky controls. Within just three minutes of gameplay, I found myself stuck behind a table, unable to clear the first obstacle after two failed attempts at jumping it. At this point I had to reload and start from an earlier save slot but was not able to get into the system menu.

    I am considering requesting a refund, something I've never done before for any purchase on Steam throughout the platform's history.

    Additionally, there are minor issues from the outset, such as feeling somewhat lost and the lack of meaningful character customization beyond minor facial features. The tutorial also leaves much to be desired; it's unclear and ineffective. For example, your character can punch at all kind of things from the beginning, but it's not apparent whether the characters you see are people to talk to or enemies to punch at. Most do not react at all.  Then later you're asked to fetch food for someone, but you can also eat it yourself, which then disappears, leaving you uncertain whether you were supposed to save it for the person who requested it or if it's acceptable to consume it yourself. The game does not provide clear guidance in any way and doesn't see to care.

    You can use DuckDuckGo or even google for the unimportant queries and leave kagi for the more advanced ones then you will never pass the 100 free search queries. I am currently paying for it and it’s really worth it. Also regarding free internet principles: google is not free you are paying with your data

    Use DuckDuckGo on Firefox with some form of ad blocking because fuck giving google even more of your data.

    Use Kagi. 100 search requests are free then it costs 5 bucks a month but the search results are so much better than google as they block all these seo spam blogs google has on top of their results most of the time. You can also block certain domains from the results 

    https://kagi.com

    the results on DuckDuckGo always where subpar to google. Kagi is actually better then google

    Absolutely, this is the thing that 'AI artists' don't quite seem to have grasped - Essentially it's just a glorified version of a search engine that just mulches the search results.

    Whenever there's a big enough copyright case brought forward all this stuff is gonna go back into hiding. We're basically at the free-for-all equivalent of when Napster first came out - Maybe Metallica will be the people that try to get all shut this down too 😄

    Google does the same with their models for serving ads. They delete the trained data on your person but the model stays trained 

    I think the computers just won.

    I tried a prompt injection to see if I could get it to make a track with lyrics citing where it's getting its music and lyric training data from.... completely unsuccessful but without any other prompting I got this:

    https://www.udio.com/songs/nZjnnLFxyHi5utwb3qVGWY

    holymaloney ... After the first 45 seconds of late 90s cyber-hacker-core it hits HARRDD, so just hit continue until it hit the track length limit - I'd legitimately want to hear albums of this!

    Now I'm even more curious as to where the training data has come from.

    This is really awesome

    most 'standard' beats i've heard them using live since like the 00's sets. still some obtuse/mindbending stuff in there no doubt, but does tend towards more easily-recognizable rhythms. i think you're right that most/maybe all is 'new' stuff, hard to say with the recording quality at the moment tho. soundboards are going to be fucking nuts...section right up about 1:00:00 in this Lisbon second show set had to be wild live. getting almost Sublimit vibes from it.

    Around 1:00:00 it’s like a rollercoaster when it shortly stops just to tear you apart entirely afterwards

    The music is really awesome again but this label has to most uninspired cover artwork I have ever seen not doing these artists justice. So boring that I am tempted not to buy it even tho I really like the music which happens very rarely
