“Short form videos” - you mean deepfake porn then.

The 10 million here is a civil settlement - which can be discharged in bankruptcy - he’s roughly 750-1 grand in lawyer fees from being out from under this debt if he wanted to do so.

Oh yeah - they are the good ones for sure - the problem of course is that between Microsoft/Sony/EA/and Ubisoft they have all had hits of the heroin that is micro-transactions - the addiction isn’t going to stop - I mean how many rich people suddenly decide that had enough? I mean it happens but it’s the outlier not…

hahahaha they make more off the loot boxes and dlc than any price increase could account for - if you want to get rid of ‘all that stuff’ expect the price of a game to be 200+ dollars.

It doesn’t matter - I never understand these people who want to bend over and excuse anything a corporation does.

If you look at old school prank shows - the way to do these and get people to laugh with you at the end is to make *yourself* the joke - that is set the people up to see the bad thing happen to you - and get their reaction - then let them in on the joke.

Yeah it doesn’t really matter - changing a single thing about a clothing design makes it unique - we already have evidence that this didn’t kill the fashion industry, or designers, or the ability to sell clothing.

“To be clear: AI being used to devalue and compete with actual working artists is a serious issue”

Hrmmm - oddly she’s fine - in fact she’s the best part of the game.  The ... game - is the problem - the combat is meh - the forced walking in places, the odd one path dungeons, I really wanted to like this game and was super hyped for it - paid almost 100 bucks for it and honestly just was so let down with the…

I think the point is the market for most of the past years product has crashed horribly after launch - and WoC has dumped product on Amazon at costs less than they sold to distributors (let alone stores) to dump inventory and keep it from affecting the stock price.
