Gaben Interview

They meant as a developer.
But that's really fair either.
Nintendo consoles are the apex of shovelware. There are so many garbage GBA, DS, Wii, and even Switch games that boggle the mind that they even got published in the first place.

But when is the Artifact relaunch?

Valve kind of sucks. They are only good at getting mods, throwing a professional dev team at it, and then forgetting about it.

I'm just glad they're actually trying something out. It's always an excuse to say companies don't innovate at the risk of major losses. If there's one entity that can afford to take those hits multiple times, it's Valve. Still a disappointing situation for HL though, that much I agree.

>Do you guys not have brain machine interfaces?

>without trying to innovate
They're making an AAA VR game you twat

Honestly if you didn't realize that the Half-Life series were for demoing new tech by now, you've been living under a fucking rock

In fact, I can't think of any Valve-based game that WASN'T released to shill new tech

Come on nigga, Nintendo only did quality control right on the SNES, then they got to cocky and fucked it up on the N64 and GCN by doing so, Nintendo most certainly doesn't have that image anymore.

TF2, CS:S

I usually don't watch things about people behind the games because usually nowadays they sound so retarded and out of touch or just greedy lying cunts. This interview was actually really good though.

HL games have always been "check out this fucking amazing tech, but it has a neat storyline that justifies all of it"
Portal games were the same concept
This shit comes as no surprise if you look at HL and the tech they each introduced

GAY Station?

>In fact, I can't think of any Valve-based game that WASN'T released to shill new tech
Are your sure about that? Maybe you should think about it for a second. The reality is the majority of Valve's games have had no new tech to shill in them.

>reading comprehension
He's saying Valve has no interest in revisting the IP UNLESS they got some new tech-demo as an excuse. So it'll be like them only bothering with Episode 3 when there's a Holodeck to experiment with.

Is he trying to become Cave Johnson?

>BRAIN COMPUTER INTERFACES

stamp?

im sorry

its like one sentence

Selling digital hats is innovative, user.

TF2 was for hat tech (lootboxes, marketplace)

Portal 2

>it's like one sentence
No? He goes into details about how easy it is to transfer brain motor functions to a computer while it's surprisingly hard to make a person feel cold because of how the immune system gets tied into it etc.

Or is it the gape station?

gabe is 300 years old now with 6 wives and 20 kids and he's still developing a fucking brain device. what are we doing with our lives.

> straight up say Half-Life is only for tech demos
not really what they said is it

Fuck nigga, give me the brain motor function shit first idc about feeling cold. Hell, that would fix the biggest flaw of VR right now.

>Nintendo only did quality control right on the SNES
Wot? The SNES was INFAMly flooded with cheap garbage movie games and cash grab bootleg tier clones. It was as bad as the NES when it came to quality control.

The STEAM community?

The steamer community.

That was interesting. I'd like a whole talk on that. I wonder what kind of thinga we could do, outside videogames, if we were able to control stuff with out brain. Think robots, cars, medical devices, sexbots!

if they wanted me to watch they shouldn't have let me skip past it

hopefully this fat jew gets corona'd

I love how obvious it is that a sony nigger, the most hated fanbase, made this.

>I wonder what kind of thinga we could do, outside videogames, if we were able to control stuff with out brain. Think robots, cars, medical devices, sexbots!
They've been doing that research for decades already, user. They had paralyzed people controlling cursor movement with their brain like 15 years ago. Valve is not pioneering anything new here.

CAN WE PLEASE TALK ABOUT BRAIN INTERFACES HOW CAN THE INTERVIEWER JUST SKIM PAST THAT
reading and writing to your motor cortex has fucking HUGE implications

>Valve is not pioneering anything new here.

Then where is it? you cocksucking chink epic games store loving insect

this, I WANT IT NOW

>letting an entertainment corporation literally tap your brain

Uh, no. Zoomers can have all the fun they want, I refuse to buy into that form of entertainment.

journalists are fucking morons

>Valve is not pioneering anything new here
Maybe not, but entertainment is a huge driver of things. Imagine where VR would be if it was purely a functional thing for workers, and no consumer market

or graphics cards, shit. Approaching BCI from a medical perspective is fine, but do we really want it to be viewed as a medical device the FDA has to approve and costs $100k? Or a $1k peripheral the pc masterrace drops its wagiebux on

hurry up and die already faggot boomer

Better dead than sucked into a digital nightmare where reality and fun are blurred to the point that you aren't sure what's what anymore.

go lie down

Nigger, reality is already a living nightmare, you're a fucking idiot.

Reading I get. But writing? What would that do? Move your body like a puppet? Or just make you feel tingly like the vibration in a controller?

I'm not joking when I say that you have no idea how bad things could get for the human mind. I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream tier.

fuck, him talking about how people have no idea how close we are to the matrix, if it's possible to read inputs from your brain and translate that to the game and then write back that your body shouldn't move at all that's pretty much a low tier matrix

Like what?

>retarded gay baby AI shit and nu-half life
no one cares fix TF2 already you piece of shit

writing so you don't move at all, essentially read your intentions to put them into the game and write back so you don't move at all. you no longer need to worry about walking into walls in vr

that alone would be good enough for me

Gaben pretty much confirmed every single thing I've suspected

Hard to say without experiencing it, but no i don't think it would be like "moving your body like a puppet", i imagine it would be more like a dream experience / extremely realistic day dream.

cunny is for politicians and rich people.

i really hope we get more information on this and that it's something that we could see in a vr headset soon

I'm getting into boomer age and occasionally I'll pause and think "this is just a videogame, right?" before I deliberately yeet a pedestrian off my hood, etc

its not about immersion or graphical fidelity, its about your brain structure

Physics, Dynamic weapon pricing, etc

>Portal 2
Decal-based properties (the Gels), robotic expressions, multiplayer portals

no kidding, i got hit by a car a year ago and right before it happened i thought whatever this isn't real anyway

This. I refuse to die until this is possible.

Haptic feedback

No, this is just plain wrong. The only reason we have video games today is because computers were such a useful tool for industry. If they weren't they never would have developed nearly as much as they have. The notion the home consumer market rules the development of all technology is utter horseshit. It accounts for only a tiny portion of development at best and most of what it has is trickle down shit. For example, the majority of video game development progression has not actually come from the video game industry, it's come from academia and then trickled out to the industry.

Oh man... It seems like Gabe is losing his mind

>Decal-based properties (the Gels)
How are you calling that "tech" that's like 5 lines of code

Why does Gaben look so comfy bros?

Personally I think Gabe is a pretty cool guy, seems like he more cares about focusing on new future tech at this point instead of games themselves.

>the majority of video game development progression has not actually come from the video game industry, it's come from academia and then trickled out to the industry.
No it's come from industry. There is no such thing as "video game academia". Video games drove the development of graphics cards which are now used for things like bitcoin mining and AI

It wouldn't because you still wouldn't feel like you're moving. Imagine playing a game and 'thinking' move forwards and you move forwards. Its literally worse than using joysticks

>what is half life 1

I’ll take “no shit” for 400 alex

Nah he should just crap out yearly half-life installments and let Facebook monopolize future tech what could go wrong

Attached: 1201123726370.jpg (354x308, 18.32K)

This. Except I think they'll go for something similar to a Gyroball. Less "brain" more "acting against your movements"

i think it would feel different, pushing a thumbstick is a lot different than actually trying to move forward. but i haven't used a brain interface so idk

>Valve doing future tech
He's talking about decade old stuff

No, it's exactly the same as using joysticks. It doesn't have to be better than joysticks it has to be better than teleporting around or waving my arms like a retard. Just use the feedback wee already have, footstep sounds.

>There is no such thing as "video game academia".
Who said anything about "video game academia"? I said academia. They do research into things like developing software for analyzing the physics of animal movement for their own curiosity and then years later some programmers reads the published papers on that and develop software like Euphoria so video games can have procedural animations now. The video game industry is not full of geniuses who are inventing all new things. It's full of people who read academic papers and attend conferences.

k sweetie thats great run along now
