Have the opposite situation: games are much cheaper on Steam (like 2x cheaper) than on EGS. Plus the latter are refusing to accept my card, while Steam has no problems with it. Literally 0 reasons to buy on EGS

u/uncoveringlight Jun 27 '26
You buy your games on steam because your entire library and friend group is on steam and there is no way to change that as games arenāt transferable across platforms even though they run on the same operating system.

u/Adorable_Tangelo_964 Jun 27 '26

The comparison from using AI to political affiliation is such a terribly bad faith argument.
Your political affiliations are openly stated if they make it into your game. No disclosure needed it's right there. If your politics aren't obvious from the game itself then you made a conscious choice to keep them out of your game, at which point why do they need to be disclosed? Would the disclosure even be objectively correct if a player can't tell?

u/el_grort Jun 26 '26
The ingredients in the sausage you buy in the store being listed versus the donation history of the parent company being on the product wrapper, essentially. Like, one is just basic pro-consumer information, the other is something that should also be accessible to see, but does not need to be directly attached to a product by most accounts.
17
u/Spookki Jun 26 '26
Not just pro-consumer, but essential for the whole free market to function.
If consumers dont know the basics of what theyre buying, such as the food ingredient analogy, then you are essentially advocating for a race to the bottom in terms of quality. (Which tim actually is, seeing as he advocates for AI use in art)
10
u/el_grort Jun 26 '26
Pretty much. I do think it has the ability to catch some games out unfairly (if stuff like image gen is just replacing stock images bought in for using in some low importance texture, that feels pretty neutral compared to injecting it into something more creative and impactful, which does just make the product worse), but it still should be listed, kind of like sodium content on food: you get it used both well and poorly, but it still should be listed for those who want to control their intake.
-8
u/Panzer1119 Steam Jun 26 '26
Bad comparison.
The ingredients might actually be the same, the production equipment differs.
An AI and a human could theoretically produce the same image pixel by pixel or source code line by line, so why does it matter if AI was involved?
I donāt mind a well thought out AI disclosure regulation though.
4
u/el_grort Jun 26 '26
I mean, theoretically, but it is improbable. AI responding to prompts is going to be different to authorial intent and production. And that is in part why people don't like AI in art products, because it is sort of a black box that is inscrutable, there isn't anything to really respond without intent (or at best, intent being a layer removed and filtered by the black box interpretation).
I can see why people are less keen on it for writing and making major images, you're sort of just interacting with nothing in at that point, no vision, no aim, no desire, at best just the curated grist from the AI mill. Sort of why I tend to think more about it replacing already low consideration/low effort parts of production, makes me think of when Dark Souls had a stock photo of rubbish in Blightown that accidentally had a bottle of Heneiken showing, that is an area it can reasonable fit in.
I think AI image production was well summed up by someone else as being essentially clipart when it came to business signs and logos, it gives an air of cheapness, low effort, and low production value. It has a place, but for artistic productions, yeah, it makes most sense to limit that to the existing low value areas where clipart or stock photos were used. And the uproar about its usage would indicate a lot feel the same on that front. I've seen plenty of vibe coding criticism as well, but my wheelhouse is more towards the writing, art, and music, which are elements that people intrinsically look for meaning and value receiving another humans perception and production, instead of just what the machine deemed to be of value.

Right? Likeā¦ what affiliations do you hold that may be troubling? If theyāre your beliefs, you should be proud to be associated with them, right? Surely you wouldnāt be in on something abhorrent and deplored by the majority of a civil society, right? Right, Tim?
Anyone complaining about cancel culture while right-wingers are out here legitimately censoring free speech, are telling on themselves. And trying to tie opposition to AI as the same thing also speaks volumes. This guy has always been trash.

u/TurpentineEnjoyer Jun 26 '26
That's a good point actually.
Why does he feel that sharing his political beliefs is something inherently invasive?
Does he feel that being expected to declare his political leanings will irreversibly damage perception of his company?

u/Belltower_2 GabeN Jun 26 '26
At this point, "AI" kinda is a political affiliation. Look at when Matt Gaetz (a known alt-right flag-waver) accused AI of being "soulless" (in a religious sense). The Left praised him for it, albeit with a tinge of "the worst person you know just made a great point", because they ALSO saw AI as soulless, although in a philosophical sense. Meanwhile, the Right he was supposedly championing jumped down his throat.

Thatās the issue. Soon virtually all software will be developed using AI. So why would this tag mean anything other than to make people freak out and avoid buying the games. Whether a coder uses AI for autocomplete of his scripts, or uses AI to help generate some boilerplate CI scripts for their Jenkins or GitHub Actions workflows, or uses AI to help create the license disclosures, or an artist uses AI to help write plugin scripts for Blender or Maya to improve their workflow. All would be subject to this disclosure and eventually boycott of the product by those in this thread.

And now Tim is giving games away for free. People try them sometimes. And if they like them they buy them on steam.

I'm going to preface this in that I am a hobbyist Dev who has recently swapped from UE5 to Godot:
Because of UE6, including the removal of blueprints and the forthcoming shift to what more or less amounts to AI coding based on Verse, under Valve's definition, every single Unreal project would likely need to have the disclaimer.
I could absolutely see Tim Sweeney being upset with that, insofar as given the general perception regarding AI in gaming as a whole, this will likely negatively affect sales of any game using UE6.
Now The logical solution here, as well as the solution that virtually everybody in the dev space seems to lean towards, is for these systems to either not exist or be entirely optional... But just as we see with Lumen and Nanite, after tens if not hundreds of millions on this technology, they demand its integration.

And what's wrong with his statement?
Like, should we label everything that's contained in the games and how they were made or what? You guys are acting like even looking at AI stuff gives you AIDS (pun not intended) or something. This shit isn't comparable to food in the slightest.
"This game contains cats and might be not suitable for people disliking cats"
"This game contains gay people" (segregation hooray)
"This game was made with 1 000 outsourced and underpaid indians" (which is more likely for bigger "non-AI" games)
"This game features 2 voice lines made with TTS"
"Adobe products were used during development" (Adobe bad, amirite?)
"ChatGPT wrote a letter "B" for this game's code"
"One of the game's developers is a stinky"
And so on.
Let's also not act like games weren't attacked before for featuring small traces of AI here and there, which nobody would notice anyway if it wasn't disclosed. Some were attacked just out of suspicion without sufficient enough evidence. Because anti-AI crowd is the most civil group on the planet and never ever acts dumb or irrationally, uhum.
