This bit has me both 🍿 and 🤣 :
An integrated AI guide will add a truly personal touch. Using the One PowerTM technology recently announced by iwot productions and D1srupt1ve, players will be able to unlock and interact with sentient characters and creatures, adding a captivating RPG-like dimension to the gameplay experience. The One Power provides a foundation for endless, immersive storytelling possibilities and will be a game-changer for the trading card genre. Players will be able to experience AI gameplay for free, but extended use and access to the full suite of features will require a One Power subscription. Additional details about One Power will be provided in a future announcement.
Then again, I’m a huge WoT fan, so eh, I guess I might just keep an eye on it.
The Wheel of Time and licensing their IP rights to hack-frauds, name a more iconic duo.
Music, video games, comics, the Canadian TV pilot… I don’t like the Amazon show, but at least it was actually you know, produced.
The old WoT video game was surprisingly competent, and if you’re willing to forgive its FPS nature that turned the One Power into guns, there was a lot of love for the IP, with every “gun” referencing a specific quote from the books.
Definitely not what I’d expect from a WoT game, but far from a hack/fraud.
Oh yeah, making it an FPS was a weird choice. But that wasn’t a dig at the 1999 game, but at Red Eagle Entertainment, the group that announced and never made several video games over the years. Also responsible for the lousy attempt at adapting WoT as comics (which took 5 years to release 8 comics)… oh, AND the Winter Dragon TV pilot.
Never mind, my comment was almost entirely aimed at Red Eagle.
Oh, didn’t know they also announced video games and were responsible for the comics adaptation.
I mainly knew them for the wonderful Winter Dragon pilot. I can’t help but like it, in a so-bad-it’s-so-good way lol
Canonically, the True Power (of the Dark One) was granted only to those who served him, whereas the One Power was open to all channelers. This makes a “One Power” subscription very funny to me.
Wow. Some of that announcement was serious buzzword salad.
In concept, as a fan of WoT, I’m definitely interested. And this is a use of AI I feel is not terrible. But a subscription? Probably not gonna work for me.
…is god just chatgpt? It is sure starting to feel like this timeline is being written by a shitty AI
sentient characters and creatures
Of the first AGI is a companion app for this card game I’ll eat my hat
