wow, this blows me away completely. ive never seen a game that seemed like the intention behind it was to be the spiritual successor to riven. and looking around the web there seems to be a healthy base of people who are excited about this game. i just watched an interview with this guy and he is saying a lot of stuff that i have been thinking in the past 5 years myself -- ive been wanting to make a riven-like game. the trailer thats floating around gives me the sense that the game is lacking polish. the designs and renders lack polish and sharpness. when you look at the images that make up riven, it has heavy duty design sense. i guess it makes sense since its just one guy making this in blender. im excited and supportive but the missing 1% is going to hurt this game. just the way it strikes my eye, its slightly off.
i think when dalle-2 came out, i just gave up on the idea of making this game. i just feel like pretty soon the ai will be able to generate images, animations, puzzles and story. its already super close. i feel such regret and bitterness that humans apparently will no longer be able to employ themselves doing this. you know, people who wrote poems, stories and other things thousands of years ago are still being read today and people today continue on writing things in the same way and its a heritage and a common thread that goes all the way back and continues into the very far future. but now it feels like that ephemeral thread has been cut and the things we do now will be lost and dead in the totally new universe of ai.
i dont know, thats just what comes to mind when i see his interviews, talking about his process and his ideas. i wish they could be completely timeless. and i also gave up on making a game like this because i thought there simply was no market for it anymore but i guess i was wrong.
