Disclaimer: did not use Unreal Engine in ages - but in general I sense that there is a tradeoff with very detailed geometry and immersive collision detection. For me, immersion is broken when a character's feet just glide over the (complicated) terrain rather than touching it realistically and adjusting the posture accordingly. So it's great to see that (at least) the tires react realistically!

[@LV-426...]

Couldn't agree more.

[@notme5844]

Everything is slowly culminating towards a game that none of us will be able to distinguish from a video of reality.

[@juneru2]

I've noticed that alot of hyper realistic games also get first player movement wrong. Like, the camera either bobs way too much, or not enough, it's hard to get that sorta thing right. And usually the player has no limit to how fast they can say turn around for example. Of course you want your players to have good control, but if they can flail their heads around by darting their mouse or turn 360 degrees in an instant, that's not very realistic, is it? Realistic games are basically missing the restraint that occurs when moving in real life, well besides VR games of course. But VR has it's own set of limitations when it comes to hyper realism.

Text to video-game might even work better than text to video. The problem with text to video is shown in the corridor digital video that the ai needs to keep the images consistent between frames which is increasingly difficult with humans. I think an ai inside a rendering engine and then exporting that to a video or a video game in this case would work better because the ai can work with the existing models inside the engine. All the AI needs to do is program those models to behave how we want to.

Now suddenly the game can understand what you are saying so no matter how you phrase it, the AI will understand. The prospect of saying something and suddenly an entire world apears is just mind blowing, from the days when a prompts were the gameplay to a world where a prompt creates an entire game, I take back everything I have ever said about modern games, I conceed, this truly is the golden age of gaming.

Random but, your plosives are coming through like percussive clicks and pops sometimes, and when you cut mid sentence you aren't adding fades to the audio signal, also causing pops. And it sounds like you maybe have compressor settings that are a little bit too fast/hard, which also causes popping/pulsing sounds. Would recommend a pop filter if you aren't using one already, please add fades to the audio all of your cuts, there's likely some function that does it automatically in your software. 2:03 for example: "It'll" pops because there's no fade, "procedural" from the "p" (too much air hitting the mic at once), "that". And like, 1:47, the sibilance (s sounds) are really sharp, would recommend a de-esser, maybe slightly less reverb, or at least roll the high end off the reverb itself ("darker" echo). And I could be wrong here - but it feels like the volume is subtly, constantly pulsing on your voice, if so that would be the compressor as well attack/release/threshold settings etc. Would look up some tutorials for editing spoken word a bit - maybe unnoticeable to you, but with bassy headphones on, moments like 2:03 are almost unlistenable!

Now instead of hearing the exact same dialogue from an NPC every time you interact with them, it’s something new and different and pertinent every single time.

@@jasonyesmarc309 Polygons are usually stored in the gpu memory for most of their lifetime. Also if the polygons are just simple triangles I think its around 71 * 4 (floating point size) * 3 bytes each which is around 850 mb (ofc, this does not take into consideration normals, textures, lighting, etc...).

@@bogdyee Idk, but are you thinking about Textures maybe? R8G8B8A8 texture would still be 4bytes for 4 channels. Whilst the most basic vertex with only the position (should also have Normal and UV) would be a vector with 3 floats in it, representing its position in a 3D plane. So, with just position, a single vertex would be 3x4 = 12 bytes and a triangle would have 3 vertices. So, 3x12 = 36bytes. And that’s without Normal and UV. With normal it would also be 36bytes more and with UV would be 24bytes more. But then it gets complicated, since Triangles can share vertices. But two triangles should have at least 1 unique vertex, otherwise one of those triangles would be redundant. And lastly, there should also be internal fragmentations because of padding between elements and stuff.

I'm waiting for a direct link to the imagination of humans. That renders video, photos, and video games based on a direct imagination helmet with no more effort than is needed to think.

It becomes scary when you realize that all those professions that you wanted to choose for yourself have either already been replaced or will soon be replaced, or will be so easy that these professions will become unnecessary...

[@bilalbaig8586]

Most of those professions will no be replaced. The efficiency of the workers will be multiplied and the job will transform into something else. For example the locomotive took away the jobs in the caravan such as loaders and animal drivers and replaced them train drivers, coal miners, locomotive engineers, train station staff and managers, train schedule managers, maintainence personnel, etc. The objective of the work won't change. Just the way it is done will change while efficiency and capacity will increase dramatically.

"Text-to-game" is scarily close. We've got a chatGPT to unity tool that takes a description of what you want to do and then does it for you, like "Add a bunch of cubes over the terrain"

[@theconfusedllama]

I feel like I'm getting pushed away from technology with every AI advancement. Despite being a programmer, I hate it. Limits and boundaries on AI need to be placed now. Not later.

Youre already too late. The demand for these AI advancements far outweighs any protests against it.
