⚡️HoYoverse is set to pour up to $14.6B into building its own AI ecosystem

Over three years the studio behind Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail will go full‑stack: infrastructure, automation, content generation and next‑gen AI NPCs, Petit Planet is already slated for AI NPCs. Co‑founder Liu Wei admits the bet is risky and calls it a «firework» if it fails, but the company aims to become a tech powerhouse rather than just a game stud...

At some point, someone will get angry enough to choose #violence. Maybe a #player #character, maybe an #NPC. Even if the fight halts before any serious casualties occur, #consequences still may be #catastrophic.

As I write the major #NPCs in this story, I find interesting #tension between them. Between husband and wife. Between brother and sister. Between rival families. Between #villain and #thrall. The #party must have the #opportunity to find and use those tensions to steer the story.

This adventure is an #intrigue of two intertwined mysteries, one of which comes from a #player #character's #backstory. There are different #NPCs with different information, not all of it correct, in different #locations. I should #prepare these #locations so that the party may visit them in any order. (Well, almost any order; the #villain's #lair must be last. 😉) It's not a #linear #structure at all. It's more of a #sandbox.

I get to submit some NPCs to the (hopefully delivering soon) Masks: Duos KS project. Here’s one based on the villainous version of my Innocent character TikTok. Name changes to avoid TM issues.

Hindsight (He/Him Ace) — A speedster from a post-apocalypse future. He came back in time to prevent it. Repeatedly. After countless failures he’s an angsty teen in an artificially aged body. He’s bitter, jaded, and just enjoying himself.

⚙️ Going Medieval isn't done after launch, in the latest Medieval Monday Talks the devs said the game will keep getting content updates, improvements and fixes even after the 1.0 release.

The current push is on building, resource systems and settler behaviour: better pathfinding, smarter task ordering and clearer build/disassemble logic so NPCs stop getting stuck and wasting time on BUGS, some fixes are already available in an experimental...
