I think it's good actually that a gaming outlet in 2025 is standing up for human labour over the latest get rich quick scheme that's ruining lives and livelihoods.

Leaving aside the use of "political" as a delegitimizing term...yeah, actually. If there's a compelling reason why something might harm someone's experience, it's fair to mark a product down for that.

And that's before getting into boring discourse about art, politics, and review scores.

No, because if we give an inch to people who use machines to replace human artists they'll take the whole field.

We need to come down swift and hard on people who do not value human labour in other parts of game development, whichever part of that it is: writing, voice acting, art, programming, etc

I'm guessing the latter because it sounds similar to Ross Douthat's "Women ruined the workplace but maybe 'conservative feminism' can help"

No, you'll just send eight of your safest lackeys to do it for you.
