re: the big walk AI controversy, like I think the fully anti-AI view has to be to abandon the vast majority of modern gaming, right? like nintendo has gotten praise for coming out against AI on the assets side but I highly doubt they're treating code the same way, for instance

I genuinely don’t think I’ve seen anyone say you can’t play it, or that anything bad should happen to the devs aside from not getting a subjective award, but suddenly becoming a little pro-fascist tool because you feel a bit uncomfy about enjoying a game is, by definition, not very punk rock of you

Younger me would've been so stoked for a Platinum Naruto game that went up to Sasuke Retrival Arc Now older me is mad that all their staff left and what remaining staff they have is working on a second TMNT game

Majora’s Mask feels like a work so intrinsically tied to its Moment (1 year dev time, Miyamoto as an omnipresent herald of misery, the national anxiety around North Korean aggression at the time, the Nintendo 64’s sales woes, the contemporary rethink of RPG systems in games like Moon) that i really>

If you are anti-remake but pro-“every game should get infinite sequels” Then you need to reflect a little bit more
