Leaving out the ethics (which are significant): as a player, I care whether creativity is being enhanced or smothered. Custom enemy algorithms (the old "AI") are creative. But, bad "AI" upscaling actually confused me in the Persona 3 Portable rerelease (that icon is wind?), and LLM output is boring.

Try looking up Python hash randomization. It's a security feature.

The last 2.5 years of Bluesky were a steady build up to "criticism of Jeffrey Epstein's writing ability is ableist." Congrats everyone, we did it.

this is re:gentrification discourse. you can just say “I’m an artsy type who doesn’t like yuppies”, and there’s nothing wrong with that so long as you don’t expect public policy to be oriented around that impulse. you don’t have to use critical theory jargon to dress that dislike up.

heh yes, I figured, but it took someone mentioning a rabbi for me to have any idea what show. Well, for online LLMs to give me a guess anyway

On 2025 Bluesky, I assume this is a baseball reference.

I'm getting no value, so I'm done after this.

I replied to a post about review bombing about price. That's my sole topic. That article doesn't discuss this.

And Capcom also built brand equity, which is one reason Wilds sold so well initially. Yes, many things affect price, including that.

I can't tell what you're arguing against. Did you read my 2/2 ?

And besides, I'm not saying prices don't matter. Prices matter a great deal (see the early Nintendo 3DS!), but complaining about review bombing for prices is NYT centrist columnist thinking. The internet being mean to big companies is the cost of doing business. 2/2

- Nintendo isn't shielded as well as many claim. See the Wii U. I'm citing Nintendo because they are mascots of price increases.

- According to the article you cite, Wilds sold very well (at a high price) but then crashed. Reading Steam reviews, it looks like sentiment about the game itself. 1/2

Tears of the Kingdom was $70, set off a whole round of Discourse, and did fine.

www.metacritic.com/game/pokemon... 3.5 user score, 27 million copies sold.

The companies can deal with the very online.

(And there already are $100 games as "early access" and "special editions".)
