It's purely managers wanting to live in a world where ideas guys write a prompt and a fully-formed game comes out of the machine (and people buy that slop because their ideas are soooo goooood of course). I don't ascribe it serious motives. It's coming from a place of hating creatives, period.

Executives definitely think that, and of course, there's always The Racism and The Misogyny.
One hell of a cocktail.

So hey let's talk about this briefly. @galeannehurd.bsky.social mentioned that the execs complained Tremors didn't explain where the creatures came from. I nearly burst out (but thankfully contained myself) that I HATE IT WHEN FILM OR TV CONDESCENDS TO THE AUDIENCE. THE AUDIENCE ISN'T STUPID.
So many horror movies have the situation be dangerous because the characters are too foolish to survive but Tremors manages to both keep the characters thinking clearly and the danger high. I'm grateful for the USA network for playing it every weekend when I was a kid

This is exactly how I hopes Outer Worlds 2 reviews would go too. Having a satire of evil corporations in a capitalist hellscape seemed like an insane game for an evil corporation in a capitalist hellscape to put out, and so few reviews seemed to engage with that fact. It was fuckin crazy to see!
