Playing this AI-rendered version of Quake II feels like a fever dream in the worst way
It's Quake, Jim, but not as we know it.
Developers have been prodding at concepts for using generative AI in gaming. One of these concepts involves having the AI generate the entire game, which is just as weird as it sounds. We've seen people do their own take on this concept by feeding an AI tons of visual data based on a game and then allowing players to play in a generated world. Microsoft has released its own take using Quake 2, and while it's surprisingly playable, it still feels like something I'd dream up while running a nasty fever.
