I think this came up in nwn2 and a few times in discussion over the years and it's always funny because nobody can ever justify it in the slightest besides 'uhhh supergod said so'

we've mechanised dreams, and in so doing discovered that such halucinations aren't worth that much.

that last being the more extremely alienated version that nothing is a significant input cost I suppose, but labour is the big one shared between them

I think between this and burrito taxi stuff we can identify one of the core elements of 'consumer leftism': the belief that labour is not a significant input cost. a view completely alienated from real production that takes the entire price of a commodity as a penalty 'execs' have decided to impose

some then pivot to talking about unionisation and better labour practices in the industry. that would be very good both for game workers and for games themselves. its effect on prices would not be to reduce them.

'the cost of making games has gone up, the price of buying games has gone down, the market has only so much space to grow, this may not be sustainable' is a completely anodyne statement that people interpret as a conspiracy against the public

it's not surprising or irregular that the real unit price of a commodity has declined over time, particularly one where the costs are overwhelmingly R&D rather than unit manufacturing in an expanding market; conversely the insistence that this is a moral imperative is a little bizarre

"Return of the Obra Dinn" is seven years old this week.

For this not-particularly-special anniversary, here's a re-cammed and narrated timelapse of (nearly) all character creation, object modeling, scene posing, and general 3D work for Obra Dinn from 2015 to 2018:

"constructing the best possible opposing argument" is a completely normal exercise that you should want to be good at.

you do need to have some justification for doing it. people with no or bad justification are probably disguising polemic as intellectual exercise

(games media folks, it can't be something you were assigned to review; this has to be something you subjected yourself to of your own free will)

any intriguing moral ambiguity vanishes in favour of lady macbeth chewing scenery, etc, etc. baffling way for things to go

the resolution of the overarching mystery is boring and stupid and the collapse of the jinshi waveform makes him boring and creepy. none of the virtues of the early show survive

please read this thread of fake ads for a magical private military company

When filling out the background of Phantasm Arm a thing I really enjoy is making up fake ads. The loose theme of the thread is 'reading through a magazine you might find in the setting.' This was the first introduction for most people:
