I had to stop playing. It was a great game but good lord was it bleak.

That’s not what they meant though. In this case people are paying extra to GET the game 2 days early so they get a head start. I agree with your thoughts though.

I wish this would get pinned to the top of this thread. It really reframes every word he said in the original article. Thanks for digging and sharing.

Picked up Anno 1800 to play with a friend. It’s been really fun so far.

“The game did not have core features that have emerged as requirements to be competitive in today’s hyper aggressive market,” she wrote. “The game was just fundamentally out of touch with emerging player tastes and not aligned with the portfolio strategies of any publishers or investors.”

That is incredibly depressing to read…

I started playing Transport Inc. Now I can’t stop

You just described this entire site.

Except Pinterest is good if you know what you’re looking for. Quora has always been bad no matter what you do.

They already have toys that interact with porn so we’re on the way!

Nah, you need more numbers in your passwords. That’s why mine is always 123456789!

Oh we’re in agreement here. AI isn’t coming for us, the bosses are.

I agree with you but this argument is never gonna go away.

I can tell you now that AI won’t come for UX/UI teams, at least not in the near future. Clients rarely are able to really articulate what they need out of software and until AI is smart enough to suss that out, we’re good. That being said, I’m sure there will be companies that try to go that route but I doubt it will work, again, in the near term.

How can a competitor handle Google dropping ads and/or pricing and run at a loss until the competitor is bought or destroyed outright? Google has too much money and existing infrastructure for someone other than say Amazon to compete with YouTube and god help us if that’s the alternative we get.

‘We can’t trust anything our CEO says’ isn’t a good justification?

I’m baffled by people that are freaking out about this. We’re doing a great job all on our own of bringing on the end days.

It’s hard to deal with at work right now. Every client is demanding AI as if it’s some robot brain we can just plug in and it will do whatever they want.

Yeah. I agree with the assessment from a superficial level.
