…you refused internet in your apartment complex?

That’s in the best scenario, which we rarely get. I feel like so many people says it will make development easier (I lack a better word here), but I’m fairly positive most indie games and small teams will still stay pretty vanilla in their development method...

AAA will use this tech much more than small developers,…

It won’t create compelling dialogue, ever. It will always be nothing more than a Rorschach test. You can see something in there, but only what you put in. It has no real meaning.

I saw someone make an excellent point that the fundamental issue with the AI generated dialogue is that it lacks intent. Like an author when writing those kinds of scenes has a sense of context and how those interactions are supposed to contribute to the larger whole, even more so if the NPC has meaning for the plot.

is this one of those “yeah art is just a way to waste time” things? or do you really think video games by definition are valueless beyond pure dopamine pump time suck?

That Hyundai key looks like an MP3 player from 2003

When I was a kid I was fascinated with the crystal key that Chrysler used for a couple of years. I think it reminded me of the fortress of solitude crystal stuff from the first Superman movie.

Only disagreement on this list is the “the ice blue buttons look very premium when paired with the brushed aluminum-look” part. It definitely has the “futuristic Y2K-era electronics” look. Hell I think I had a stereo in that color scheme.

You mean you don’t love a key design that was foisted off on some of the cheapest DaimlerChrysler era stuff?

I had this key on my ‘speed6. I don’t think I ever put it in my wallet. This was my first thought when it came to weird keys.

The BMW diamond key was a pretty elegant design. Not only did it retain a fairly normal size and shape, the buttons were well integrated and the key battery was charged wirelessly when inserted into the ignition.

Wow can’t believe this list didnt mention one of the best weird car keys of all time, the credit card key that Mercedes and Mazda used to be put in your wallet

While it was by no means fancy, the 1st gen Dodge Neon had a glow-in-the-dark key, which was kind of neat and original. I owned one, and believe me when I tell you it was the only remarkable thing about it.

So few are actually keys. I love how language changes over time. 

Then you’ll be the coolest car out there.

What if you have Joystick drift?

The shit people will do to feel like they belong to something.

Or tax the living shit out of the cruise ships

What US do you live in where they ban dangerous drivers after they kill people? Because here in the USA we even let drivers who kill somebody drive home from the scene.

Imagine if we used the efficiencies modern ICE engines have achieved in concert with cars that weighed what they did in the early 90's.  Your average Camry would get absurdly great mileage.
