It is simply not plausible given how this tech works that you could take old footage from an old video game and have a 'model' 'run' the game on new hardware, and only a fucking idiot would believe that.

For Naginami and the Crimson Thread, I focus on fluid motion. To playtest, I use a trailing line that visualizes movement—if the line flows smoothly, so does the gameplay! #gamedev #indiedev #playtesting #platformer #2Dplatformer #indiegame #gamedevelopment #gameanimation #UE4

So making these kinds of responsive narrative systems is where my passion lies. I was lucky that Civ had a ton of good data for me to build off of, and I shaped our approach around what we had. I’m talking more about how I did this at GDC this year for people who are interested!

In gamedev, we joke about how we shouldn't care so much because "we ain't curing cancer" so chill, right? But you know what? These last few weeks reminded me that the Arts, esp accessible Art like videogames is incredibly important because games have a big place in sculpting cultural norms.

Years before Rockstar's Bully, in Italy, we had Tabboz Simulator. A free game released in 1997, it was a simple Tamagotchi-like "white trash" simulator where you could fight metalheads (and get beat up), find a girlfriend, modify your scooter, and especially buy loads of furry clothes.
