"I would much rather live in an uncomfortable truth than live a patronizing lie." Would you want a game to secretly get easier? Play LUCID: store.steampowered.com/app/1…

While I do think physical media will decrease dramatically, I still hold out hope that it won't go away completely. I remember when the kindle first came out and everyone thought physical books would go away too.
The video game industry may be trying to phase out physical media as digital shops take over, but a whole lot of people still showed up to stores for Ocarina of Time's midnight launch. kotaku.com/legend-zelda-ocar…

Our cats love it when I setting up a new board game because they play with the trash so they come running as soon as the plastic crinkles

What If the Game Is Secretly Getting Easier?
People say this game is too easy and now I'm doubting myself.

the idea of a parasocial relationship is almost essential for audience buy in and storytelling. If the audience doesn't care about the character then no one will care about the story.
This is also why character consistency is important.

My problem isn't that AI can be used to quickly make games, it's the fear that developers will get lazy and "good enough" will become more and more prominent.
