There would be absolutely zero pushback if Steam mandated a disclosure of what game engine the game used or what modelling program the models were made with.
But suddenly it's a huge deal when they have to disclose if they've used a fraud-funded plagiarism machine. Hmm, wonder why.
I'd probably push back on requiring model disclosure. Tons of games use purchased assets, and a full accounting of all the relevant software in that chain seems challenging. Additionally, any user-generated content is going to be very difficult to audit for similar reasons.
Meanwhile, it seems like this would make for a relatively easy way for spiteful individuals to attack developers for "failure to accurately disclose" sorts of things.
This one has none of those problems.
Tim Sweeney is such a little pissdrinker.
Tim's weeney
This guy has got to be the worst Tim ever.
We're going to need another Timmy.
Tim Weenie, or maybe Tim Teenie Weenie
I never met a Tim in my life before, that is worst than this manifestation of Tim. So from my personal experience, I agree with your statement.
I had a boss named Tim, and he was the worst person ever.
Tim Willits would like a word
cant believe the guy who is placing a big emphasis on the AI integration features in Unreal Engine 6 would be upset about devs needing to disclose if they used AI or not
It's the Streisand effect. Microsoft felt it too: "Don't call it slop" the web now calls it "Microslop". Tim doesn't want the disclosure to be seen, so what does the web do? Off course they develop a plugin to make the disclosure even bigger. This is how things are done in real world. Tim is a baby and does not know how reality works. :-)
Its not even reality. Its fucking discourse. You centered the discourse, Tim. It's real fucking simple.
It would become his main income and business. xD
Try as you may, Fortnite money doesn't shut him up.
First half of the headline implies legitimate criticism. But considering Sweeney's history, I think it would be easy to expect it to be an agenda of attacking Valve however he can.
It’s OK. He’ll stop once he drowns in his own tears.
