Google's new video generator has gone all out, I don't know you, but my feed is Full Examples of what it can (sometimes can't) do. I've covered how it has deep YouTube YouTube content, half-cooked Michael Bay Bulls **T and ridiculous pharmaceutical ads, but I haven't talked about another category yet, and it's probably more influential than its previous uses. Sorry, gamers, but WEO 3 (and other possible video generators) may collide with your AAA game course.
VEO 3 video games are very good. Just like you can already explore a new world.
The prompts are:

One area of VEO 3 is surprisingly playing with fake game videos of AAA games, and if you can let me turn my brain off for a while, it's fun. The above is the result of the prompt that requires weo 3 to generate third-person open world games in different settings, including some reality Grand Theft Auto– Style generations, some sci-fi, some fantasy, one that looks bad Our last one. Copyright concern aside, it's neat!
Given that Google may have provided endless gaming content via YouTube, it makes sense that VEO 3 will be able to spit out some kind of AAA game fax. That's not the part that really attracted me. It is people who have occupied these generations and run with them. Here is an example from a 3D designer who wrote Lovis Odin on X, demonstrating how to integrate the output of veo 3 into a workflow that absorbs the text-to-video features of the AI video generator and makes them more detailed.
Google VEO3 creates beautiful basic videos, but what if it's not enough?
I've built one @comfyui Take its further workflow:
🏗New structure with flux (Lora Arch)
📦Use Hunyuan3d 2 to become 3D
🔁Integrate through flux, control network and redux+re

Odin uses some other tools that go along with VEO 3, taking the initial video prompt, and then adding a structure that is rendered into 3D, which is then completely customizable. Of course, VEO 3 can add objects by itself, but as Odin pointed out, what distinguishes this workflow from a typical text-to-video prompt is granularity. Just as good as text-based tips, they also have a bit of a huge pain on the butt if you want something Specifically, This makes them lower the true professional workflow.
It is clear that Odin's workflow is not only focused on the game, it is something that can be applied to anything that generates videos, but it is especially useful for game development. Think about it: you have an idea, use veo 3 to generate appearance, customize it with other 3D tools, and then (although this part is not included in Odin's workflow) you bring it into the AI-generated code. Obviously, the last part is the biggest part of the puzzle, and the generated AI is not yet able to correctly encode AAA games, but that doesn't mean we are not moving in that direction yet.
People are already well on their journey to a simple game of “Ambient Coding”, but something tells me that it's just the beginning. Google itself has come up with the idea of general coded games in 2023 and said in a blog post about generating AI and games that “creating content is one of the (if not the largest) Expenses that games can generate.” The blog also said: “Under the UK’s CMA, blockbuster games may have a development budget of over $100 million…AI allows developers to leverage this new technology in a way that respects intellectual property rights while protecting their own proprietary data.”
To sum up Google, if I could, game development was expensive and time-consuming, they thought there was a lot of potential to reduce the cost of the game’s labor and copyright would be damned. Is that surprising? No, not at all. AI, if we believe in hype, seems to be a labor-reducing force in many industries, including games. Surprisingly, however, progress in this direction may be faster than we thought, and if it is indeed here, this could be bad news for those in the real, extremely tiring gaming industry, and it could be bad news for the game itself.
The potential of AI Slop is as great as that of enhanced AI, but unfortunately, there is nothing special about the gaming industry that can prevent this slope-like ripple from taking effect. I learned not to give alerts too early, this happened in the tech world and they happened very quickly. Maybe in the not too far future we will wake up and realize that the whole AI is just a popular one, but if one thing is certain, it is that we may find a lot. Fortnite steal.
