Claims that genAI speeds up PC ports of classic games are either "false" or missing the point, says Banjo Kazooie: Recompiled developer
A developer behind the unofficial PC port Banjo-Kazooie: Recompiled argues that claims of generative AI speeding up classic game PC ports are false or misguided. DarioSamo states that the true value lies in understanding and preserving how games were made, a process that AI shortcuts, leading to less polished and understandable code. He emphasizes that the effort to get a game running is just the first step, and the subsequent polish and sustainability are what truly matter.
