So I've been playing this game called Desecrators off and on since it came out. I'll do a number of runs then take a break from it and play other things then come back to it after some time. It has procedural generated maps, every run is different.

It got me thinking... I don't like A.I. generated crap, but I like this! It's a seed based generation. Why is this OK and A.I. is not for me? I do understand that the procedural stuff in Desecrators is seeded from rooms that are human crafted. The system can tweak the rooms size/shape/etc but it's not WHOLE CLOTH random/procedural. Maybe this is why? Or maybe it's just because it's a casual fun game and not "generated art". Like I KNOW what this game is and it's upfront about it, but gen AI just always feels like a lie and/or a cheat, not to mention very wasteful.

Thoughts? Comments? I've logged 80 hours in this game BTW! I love it! haha.

Setting up "DOOM" to use the Sound Canvas SC-55 MIDI emulator in 86Box and comparing it to the Sound Blaster 16. Another massive improvement! 😉
