Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis previews show Unreal Engine remake at Gamescom
Use of AI taints everything else around it. For instance, the more I look at this Tomb Raider salad, the more I wonder if this was an AI asset that won’t end up in the final game. Someone could have made it, but it just looks uncanny to me now I know they used it *somewhere*.
“A crisp, tangy salad of red onions, tomatoes, and herbs, with chili for a spicy kick - perfect with hearty campfire meals.” I see weird cucumbers and whole chilis in a leaf mush. No red onion, no tomatoes. In an older game an artist would’ve just drawn it on a flat surface and I’d have been happy.
'Tomb Raider Salad' sounds like an insult I can get behind.
I've had this exact conversation with a few colleagues after that preview. The food is so uncanny valley but even if there isn't any genai in there, the association has tainted the whole game
It looks like a salad rendered by something that's never seen salad.
I was so excited about new tomb raider games, and then so devastatedly disappointed to learn they used ai. Like, lara is a character that is very important to me, and i'm gonna have to skip this game because of this.
"We're only using AI for placeholder assets!" Back in my day we had magenta squares and ALLAN PLEASE ADD DETAILS and that's the way we liked it!
tomb raider is a resident evil game, not an uncharted game. It is this that has been misunderstood all these years
Let Natla have the T-Virus to a lady gaga soundtrack imo
God I would fucking kill for a Tomb Raider game made by the current resi team
A creative TR team could engineer a reason to have a neo-Nazi eaten by a t-rex, I think
That's the comparison that was escaping me, I remember playing Tomb Raider 1 for the first time a few years ago and was shocked at just how horror it was.
tomb raider is the easiest series to get right ever, even angel of darkness has its fans, how do they consistently fuck it up in brand new ways
Like, can I be real for a second? I don't know much about peruvian cooking but I do know that Peru has a gamut of potatoes, literally thousands of varietals. You're telling me that the six potatoes Lara Croft grabbed out of inexplicably conspicuous burlap bags are ALL Yukon Golds?
Easy: the guys in charge are nepobabies that hate video games
Its like a race to the bottom
