GamesBeat: "It’s fitting, in this game that makes you a human playing a self-aware robot, that almost all the playtesting — some 15,000 hours’ worth — was done by a bot pretending to be human. It did so much testing that the developers started referring to it as “him” and gave it a pet name: Bot."
Despite launching back in 2011, Serious Sam 3: BFE is playable on all modern formats. But is it still worth your time?
Interesting bit of news here. Croteam celebrates 20 years of Serious Sam by delivering a powerful suite of free official modding tools and Steam Workshop support to Serious Sam 4.
CG writes: Here is a 40 minute look at the Blade Runner Cells Interlinked 2021 gameplay on PC. It’s a mod for Serious Sam 3 BFE (Serious Sam Fusion). The game offers a single-player Blade Runner experience, and has you escaping from your captors.
Never heard of a dev using a bot to test their games before. That's cool!
Ugh. Can't see how a bot could do better than human testers who can come up with crazy ways to try to break games.
That's cool. Kind of like the robot arms that test the drawers in Ikea.
Slave labour...
Skynet!
But seriously, if I was a QA tester I would get pretty nervous about something like this.
