the eurogamer arc raiders review made this the crux of their argument but it really got me thinking of how insanely boring and small-minded you have to be to rob yourself of the opportunity for a voice actor to really make an imprint on your game, community, and legacy

At risk of flogging a dead horse: this whole letter is a reminder that the creative process is an end in and of itself, and vital to self-actualisation. You can’t experience BECOMING, as he puts it, by outsourcing it to ChatGPT.
In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.
KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.
His reply was a doozy.

I think the use of AI in arc raiders distracts from the fact that it is a soulless trend chasing Gaming Product that only serves to Capture a Market

Enshrining continuity and canon in pop fiction was a mistake
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

When folks write things designed to make you panic, you should take a breath and ask - is this designed to make me engage? Or is it actually trying to inform?

Assume all the yes and no votes from Dem senators are strategic and not sincere votes. The party caucus made a decision. No way to know how many were in favor. Then the caucus decided who would vote yes and no based on what would protect each of them politically the most. That’s how this works.

"moderate" fascist enablers are just fascists, even if they're too cowardly to admit it, and belong up against the same wall

the boobs and butt are nice and this might be more indirect effects but transitioning made me more extroverted and just suddenly able to consider myself worth anything and infinitely more comfortable directly messaging people, talking to strangers and generally interacting with people which is WILD
