I’m tired, boss.
While the Skyrim example is more creepy than anything, as it gives all the characters this unnerving, dead-behind-the-eyes look
I dunno, I think it’s an improvement. Have people really forgotten that Skyrim already had an “unnerving dead behind the eyes look”? It’s an old game. This technology looks better than most “HD texture packs” and model pack mods that many players consider mandatory…

Elder Scrolls games have always been peopled entirely by uggos, and by Jiub it always will be.
“Improvement” my ass.
Looks like the fucking press secretary. Thanks I hate it.
Reminds me of Amy Schumer lolp
Thx I hate it
I guess they felt videogames didn’t look quite enough like soap operas or instagram “models”.
Cloud looks like Scarlet Johansson, I can’t unsee it.
Cloud looks like they’re transitioning. Good for them.
All examples look samey in the worst way.
i mean, we don’t know what the training was like for this version. if it was trained on a limited subset of people (like NBA players for NBA 2k) that could easily explain why. In future games that want to support this, they could train it specifically on the actor/models they used.
Cloud “Marshall Mathers” Johansson.
Shit! Me neither now T_T
“Hello I’m david bowie.”
look, I’m not in favor of ai slop and DLSS 5 used without creators’ consent or input is fucked…
…but another title for this story could be “unfinished, unreleased product deemed not ready for release” …
Like, you just slapped an unfinished version onto whatever game they had been tinkering with and then roast them for the uncanny valley effect? That’s some manufactured outrage
Control looks great with it, because it has a realistic art style.
Control does look more realistic. It’s not just making everyone into supermodels, but adding imperfections and flaws you see in real people. Whether that’s your preference or not is subjective, but it’s less like an Instagram filter than the last demonstration.
It takes any personality away and averages out to something that looks like in anything other. And then does not even fit into the art style and world of the rest of the game. Still image are one thing, moving and eventually speaking or making facial expressions together with other characters in a scenery is a different thing.
This might improve games that were vibed together with Ai in the first place. But not artistic strong and beautiful games crafted by good artists.
