Some images from ChatGPT using my own renders as a base

I wouldn't use AI art for a game anyway. I mean, I might use it for reference images and such but not directly in a game.

Most of the joy of releasing a game is the knowledge that people are playing something that YOU created. And if you didn't really create it then is there any point? Why are you doing it?

Matty

Are you saying you've never purchased assets in any of your games? What's the difference? I do actually create the underlying image in Blitz3d using assets I've purchased and created, then ask ChatGPT to enhance them. So it's not entirely the AI tool's work, though a lot it is.

Here's some more:

But to answer your question, why am I doing it (using AI art tools) - simply because I enjoy the pictures it creates. That's all. I like art. Fantasy art. Sci Fi Art. And it does a better job than I can at bringing my ideas to life.

I like the Sci-Fi fantasy art. I had a book full of it when i was a kid. Used to look at it for hours and imagine being in those worlds. Now you can get the art for free! Cool that.

Still we have RPG Dead Space, MAss effect, Halo just to mention a few.  :D

@Baggey - if you want to look at books of sci fi or fantasy art the Expose series is great although it's only sold in specialist bookshops and online - I have most of the first 12 or so editions. Another one is Spectrum (another art book) but this is less digital and more oil on canvas sci fi and fantasy art.

Then there's a tonne of books you can get that have your favourite games, such as those mentioned above, their concept art and other art - if you go to the right shops. They generally don't sell in your standard bookshops, you have to find some of the more unusual shops that cater especially to sci fi and fantasy content.

Waste of effing money, cancelled subscription immediately as as result. (models create/texture but the process hangs on pressing 'download' just sits there with the spinning wheel forever..waste of time and money)
