another important part is Suda pays tribute to Tatsushi Fujita, who was an environment artist for Grasshopper as far back as killer7. It's super awesome for Suda to pay tribute not just in this message but for the release of Romeo and the new game. It reminds everyone that games are made by humans.

Call me old-fashioned, but I think it’s incredibly crass to demand certain (controversial) story beats from your writing team, fire that writing team, then throw that writing team under the bus for decisions *they didn’t make* while marketing your new thing.
Very crass! Very ick!

Reading this, all you have to remember is that OpenAI itself reports 800,000,000 weekly users, of which apparently 0,15% are having conversations related to self-harm, and OpenAI is aware that its systems can and do fail in preventing further harm. It's just too profitable to stop, I guess.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

The year is 2035. There are three game studios left. Each one produces a game every 10 years, killing 250+ developers in the process. They all accidentally make the same game because they used genAI in preproduction. They sell 500 million units each, missing quarterly targets. Everyone is laid off.
