Feel love for this game all the time

"Humans should trump soulless machines."

.

Eric Barone, or ConcernedApe, the creator of Stardew Valley, has clearly confirmed that he will "never use Generative AI to make games," whether it is visual work, speech, characters or any creative content.

.

He said in an interview with Game Informer that the purpose of making games for him is to convey ideas, feelings and identities through art, so letting AI create instead is directly against what he believes.

.

"My goal is to express myself through video games, so why should I have AI to replace me?"

- ConcernedApe said.

.

He also spoke about the value of humans, and if they need help, they should allow "real humans" to use their abilities rather than their machines.

"Humans should be given priority before a soulless machine."

The body is clear.

.

Although many game companies are now using AI to help with QA translation or animation, for ConcernedApe, he sees that what is the "heart" of the game should be purely human.

.

At the event, many Stardew Valley fans came out to appreciate it. This is why his game is still so charming and warm that AI can't replace it. 🌱

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัวของผู้เล่น Stardew Valley มาตลอด ผมเข้าใจดีว่าทำไม Eric Barone ถึงยืนยันไม่ใช้ AI ในการพัฒนาเกมนี้ เกม Stardew Valley ไม่ใช่แค่เกมทำฟาร์มทั่ว ๆ ไป แต่เป็นผลงานที่สื่อถึงความรักและความใส่ใจของผู้สร้างที่ต้องการถ่ายทอดตัวตนผ่านทุกองค์ประกอบ ทั้งงานภาพเสียง และเรื่องราวภายในเกม ซึ่งเป็นสิ่งที่ AI ยังไม่สามารถสร้างสรรค์ขึ้นได้อย่างแท้จริง แม้ว่าเทคโนโลยี AI จะช่วยลดเวลาการทำงานในบางส่วนของอุตสาหกรรมเกม เช่น การแปลภาษา หรือการสร้างแอนิเมชันเบื้องต้น แต่หัวใจหลักของ Stardew Valley คือความอบอุ่น เสน่ห์ และความสัมพันธ์ระหว่างตัวละคร ที่ต้องมาจากความรู้สึกและประสบการณ์ที่แท้จริงของผู้สร้าง นี่คือเหตุผลที่แฟน ๆ ยังหลงรักเกมนี้อย่างต่อเนื่อง การที่ ConcernedApe เน้นย้ำว่า “มนุษย์ควรสำคัญกว่าเครื่องจักรไร้จิตวิญญาณ” ยังสะท้อนมุมมองที่ลึกซึ้งเกี่ยวกับค่าของงานสร้างสรรค์ ที่ไม่ใช่แค่เพียงผลงานเชิงเทคนิค แต่มันคือการแบ่งปันความรู้สึกผ่านศิลปะ ซึ่ง AI ไม่สามารถแทนที่ความรู้สึกนั้นได้อย่างสมบูรณ์ สำหรับคนที่ชื่นชอบ Stardew Valley การรับรู้ถึงความตั้งใจนี้ทำให้เรารู้สึกผูกพันและให้คุณค่ากับเกมมากขึ้น และทำให้เห็นชัดว่าทำไมงานของ ConcernedApe จึงมีเอกลักษณ์และยั่งยืนทั้งในแง่ของเนื้อหาและความรู้สึกที่อบอุ่น

The book cover for Rachel Reid's "The Long Game" features two male hockey players in uniform, facing each other on an ice rink, holding hockey sticks. The title is in white against a teal background, with a quote from Sarina Bowen and the author's New York Times Bestselling status.
🏒Book Review: The Long Game by Rachel Reid🏒
The Long Game by Rachel Reid is an emotional, character-focused hockey romance that leans heavily into angst, long-term relationship struggles, and mental health. It works best if you’ve already read Heated Rivalry, since it continues Shane and Ilya’s story years into their relationship. ⭐ Overall
