Malas noticias, #inZoi es malo

No juguéis a #inZOI, el nuevo clon de Los Sims.

En resumen:
- La compañía (KRAFTON) tiene intereses en el mundo de la IA generativa (tiene una división dedicada a ello).
- El juego tiene funcionalidades de IA, que no son necesarias para jugar, pero el propio juego está hecho usando IA, como la propia compañía ha reconocido.
- KRAFTON dijo que la IA que incluye el juego está basada únicamente en datos libres de copyright y de propiedad de la compañía, por lo cual no hay problemas éticos. Esto es, casi con total probabilidad, falso. Sería complicado conseguir eso incluso para una compañía del tamaño de Disney.
- KRAFTON ha reconocido en diversas ocasiones usar IA en todo el proceso de desarrollo, para cosas desde concept arts hasta generar diálogos hablados, pasando por modelaje 3D, textos (y, no me cabe duda, código). Lo hacen, según ellos mismos han reconocido, para ahorrar dinero en pagar a trabajadores. Según ellos, el 90% de sus empleados usa IA para su trabajo.

InZOI looks like a video game made by someone who's never played a video game before.

InZoi’s early access misses its shot to launch the definitive Steam Deck life sim - https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/inzoi-steam-deck-early-access #MultiplayerCompetitive #SteamDeckAcademy #LifeSimulation #SinglePlayer #Thirdperson #Simulation #SteamDeck #Hardware #Krafton #inZOI #PC

W weekend sprawdziłem te nowe Simsy - inZOI i jestem pod wrażeniem. Graficznie wyglądają świetnie(Unreal Engine 5, duh!). Opcja widoku third-person i ogromne możliwości personalizacji postaci, ubrań itd., daje tej grze spore możliwości. Brakuje trochę przedmiotów i świat jest zbyt pusty(za mało w nim ludzi), choć możemy chodzić po sporej części miasta. Nieźle jak na Early Access. No i najważniejsze, to nie jest gra EA #giereczkowo https://store.steampowered.com/app/2456740/inZOI/ #inZOI

Se me habían quitado bastante las ganas del #inZOI con eso de que utilizaban IA para generar texturas(1), pero después de ver este gameplay es que me ha quedado claro que está el juego sin acabar directamente:

#inZOI, the #AI-driven life simulation game I posted about a couple months ago, is out today (well, early access). And as predicted, these graphics are amazing. Also as predicted, there's no way my PC will run it. :P https://gadget.co.za/inzoiearlyaccess235f/?utm_source=MastodonAfrica #videogames

Why would you use obvious soulless #AI slop to promote your game?...

A little #Denuvo DRM news:

#Atomfall incorporates 3rd Party DRM: Denuvo anti-tamper.

#inZoi 𝘸𝘢𝘴 meant to ship with Denuvo, but the director released a statement saying that they're listening to the community and not implementing it.

#Mandragora Whispers of the Witch Tree similarly drops Denuvo ahead of its launch.

From everything I’m hearing thus far of Inzoi early access is that people will probably walk away appreciating the Sims 4 more ..

Curious to potentially give the game a spin myself

InZOI's system specs make me want to see this handsome Sims killer running on a pocket calculator - https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/inzois-system-specs-make-me-want-to-see-this-handsome-sims-killer-running-on-a-pocket-calculator #MultiplayerCompetitive #LifeSimulation #SinglePlayer #Thirdperson #Simulation #Krafton #inZOI #PC

I was excited for InZOI until I learned they used AI (LLM in disguise) generated content in-game. So that's a hard pass for me, as I like my life simulation games being handcrafted by the developer team...

Not some LLM generative tech doing most of the heavy lifting in terms of content creation.

inZOI allows players to create immersive life stories with Co-Playable Character (CPC). Built with NVIDIA ACE, Smart Zoi dynamically adjust their behaviors according to their traits and the situation they are in, resulting in diverse and personalized characters.

Offensively good-looking Sims challenger Inzoi hits early access in March 2025 - https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/offensively-good-looking-sims-challenger-inzoi-hits-early-access-in-march-2025 #LifeSimulation #Krafton #inZOI #PC

While I may not play this game due to it’s reliance on generative AI, I do like the Unreal facial capture tech that it features.

My son does, too.

Also, der #inzoi Character Editor aus dem Windows-Steam-Store unter Whisky unter macOS auf einem M1-Macbook Pro startet zumindest. Die Framerate wackelt zwischen "ok" und "3 frames pro Minute"
