As I've seen other people put it "No genAI *is* the middle ground. Jail time for Sam Altman and all the other execs stealing everyone's work is the other end of the spectrum."

I am genuinely glad you're enjoying FF13. It's always a struggle to enjoy stuff that everyone else has written off as bad (I quite like RE6 for example), and I always support people finding their joy in spite of popular opinion.

I mean, considering there's only like what... 2 noms in the fighting game category that are actually full new games that came out this year and not either early access or rereleases... Like TGA's have always been a sham but they've stopped even trying to look past what they can get ad money from.

People will always find ways to circumvent things to make number go up, but in this case those people are going to have a guide open and there's not much devs can really do to stop that kind of player. Everyone else is going to be incentived to actually engage with the material.

Of The Devil is nothing like Mechanicus. This is a visual novel along the lines of Ace Attorney with the articles and questions in question deeply tied to the world and cases involved. I guarantee that the Mechanicus comparison is extremely not applicable here.

Twitch wants to be TikTok so badly it hurts. But nobody on Twitch wants it to be TikTok because TikTok and Youtube already fill those niches. Let Twitch just be Twitch for fuck's sake!

And that's not even necessarily a reflection on them as a person. My grandmother was very supportive of me getting therapy for my ptsd etc, but anyone suggesting she might benefit or have depression after my grandfather passed was calling her crazy and a personal insult.

I can guarantee you that person has never been in a therapy session just because of the customer remark. Clients are not treated as customers, they're treated similarly to a doctor treating a patient. But they'll never go to therapy because I'm pretty sure that would be seen as a weakness.

As someone with a degree in Social Work, and has worked in the mental health field, and still has friends actively in the field I have to just say... HOLY FUCKING SHIT NO THAT IS SO INCORRECT IT IS TERRIFYING. I'm of the opinion everyone would benefit from therapy, but god... ignore that guy.

I won't lie, I get a little pride when a streamer friend features a clip I made, but... who the fuck needs to advertise that? There's "notice me senpai" and then there's whatever the fuck this is...

Here’s the room where I keep all my things
