@PinballBuzzbro to be fair I don’t think he is or should be obligated to hire someone to do the work for him. Given the attitudes I have seen from a lot of these ‘artists’ since people started dabbling in AI I’m not surprised some folk want to limit their support and time spent dealing with them.
@combywomby if only I had wasted as much of my life as this chap has, who knows where I could have been right now - slow news day article on a niche interest website at the very least no doubt.
While I don’t doubt there are genuine examples out there it still feels like ‘preservation’ is the latest buzzword and for the most part it seems to be most used as justification for people to do whatever they want more than anything else.
The feels when my two young children beg me to play Mario, Donkey Kong, Kirby, Arms or Legend of Zelda. My daughter at almost five shows a real ability for 8/16 bit Mario. Judging from there reaction to the Sushi Strikers sushi sprites I feel I'll be adding Pokémon to the list.

Re: Retro Indie Title "Moons of Darsalon" Is Headed To Consoles, Complete With Icky AI Art
No problem with the use of AI in this case and the game itself looks neat with a nice art style - I’ll probably give it a go when it releases.

Staggered that anyone cares this much about it to be honest.

Re: Poll: Did You Know That GoldenEye Had A Dual-Analogue Control Option On N64?
Me and my friends thought it was a multiplayer control scheme for the single player so would play levels cooperatively using it.

Re: There's A New Intellivision Coming, And A Trio Of Former Nintendo Staffers Are Helping Launch It
Fair play for giving it a go. Will probably end up getting this for the novelty but can't imagine I'd use it much.
