Good idea. Allows for a large environment to explore while simultaneously keeping manageable boundaries.

I would be happy if the journalists at least stated openly which games are AI written and dev'd.
Are we getting into the time when we should start labeling the human vs AI percentage of the project?
I would still buy a game with 100% human written story and maybe partially AI coded......maybe.

We started boycotting uhaul once it became apparent that they didn't care what their vehicles were being used for. Now I'll just have to make sure to nix any other company that guy is associated with.
If they aren't going to care about our voice then maybe they will care about our wallets.

I lean towards no as I think a vital part of visiting a country is interacting with some amount of its culture, not just witnessing its geography.

Wow. So much to unpack from that.
There is the obvious point that people really are not very wise.
But what I'm more focussed on is that I don't think the electoral college is allowed to vote for a president that is running for a third term, regardless of what the popular vote is.

But of course my paranoid brain is wondering if this is a marketing excersise to determine what content is still viable for them to start publishing again.
Not sure if this speaks to my damage or to the industry's?

But in all fairness
The customer base has become whiny shits who are too easily distracted by marketing and the loudest voice in the room. We've earned our punishment (grin)

Imagine what could happen if even one of the bigger production companies took the long term approach and actually made thought-out, customer focussed, quality games? The lack of competition would be astounding.

I still prep. But it's story prep, not game prep. I have certain opinions on the state of the space that people are stressing about "prep", but I'll leave that to a different rant.
I agree that it's the time shared that has the value.
