I hate the online reaction cycle that praises a piece of art a lot and uses it as an example of what’s good about the medium but then the moment it gets awards or enough acclaim or fandom, suddenly we have to talk about how it’s actually not really that good and it’s overrated and always sucked

This really sums it up. For those who haven't watched it, the dialogue on the right isn't paraphrased, those are the lines.

this is adjacent to the point Erin is making but i have always believed that one major reason the war on drugs exists is that a lot of powerful people don't want the rest of us to realize that anything can be a drug
Wow the exact thing genAI creators intended, for their users to become psychologically dependent and chemically addicted to their product, is happening, who could have seen this coming

It's that trend that has worried me a lot lately.
"I don't see what the point of this is when bad people can get around it" is not how you get any progress to happen.
You get it to happen by reinforcing that bad stuff is bad and cultivating a culture which cares enough about enforcing norms.

Seeing more and more Hades-likes crop up lately, and I gotta say I feel like every single one of them misses the whole point.
Sure, having slick and flashy gameplay with gorgeous art is very nice… but those aren’t the moments of a Supergiant game that really stick with me.
