"but what if they can't draw" here's hideo kojima making level blockouts for metal gear solid 1 and 2 with LEGO

I am begging AI bros to use their brains for two seconds

Having gone through this whole song and dance multiple times in my 15 year career online, if you're worried about alienating your audience then don't. ALIENATE THEM. ALIENATE THE SHIT OUT OF THEM. YOU DON'T WANT THEM THERE.

@rodger.bsky.social said it best

It made me so viscerally uncomfortable. It was clearly intentional - the ENTIRE trailer was one long shot of a guy getting immolated & sex & revelry. Like congratulations, you win most graphic content I've ever experienced in a trailer? Yay?

It sucks that you had to make this decision, but, hear hear. I've been feeling similar convictions about the game myself. & I really appreciate your nuance of giving yourself permission to make decisions later w/ new info, too.
Take care of yourself, bro!
