Andrew Wilson had some bots, EA AI O.
That line right there is comedic journalism gold.
This is the second old mac Donald post I’ve seen in a row
Was the other the Celine Dion one?
Yeah
Quickly, invest in old MacDonald memes
I now explicitly trust this writer and take his word as gospel.
The Pulitzer should give out some other prizes, and this should get the Zinger award.
Absolute cinema
I will never understand how EA went from the game company everyone knew and quoted with that “Its in the game!” slogan to a laughing stock and poster child of shitty studios.
Capitalism. It corrupts everything eventually.
Sure, I’ll concede that in the beginning you get innovation but we’re not in that place now. They actively stifle it. Look at Hollywood, you don’t see mid budget movies anymore and nobody wants to take a risk on a creative endeavour if they can make X-Men 66.
You just have to look in the right place. The mid budget film became high-end TV shows on streaming services, which are allowed to innovate and experiment like crazy.
For one season.
Or worse, the creator is promised multiple seasons and writes accordingly, but the show is cancelled and you’re left with an unfinished product.
For this reason I have completely stopped watching a thing new. I’m sure I’m missing a lot of great shows ut I’m just sick of a great show ending on cliffhanger thT will never get resolved
Sadly, that era seems to be drawing to a close as well.
For now
Dune part 2 just came out and is a highly creative endeavor.
Edit: If you all don’t think that the version of the Dune world these movies created isn’t immensely creative and unique then you are stuck up snob. Especially part 2.
Dune part 2 just came out and is a highly creative endeavor.
It is a sequel to a remake of a remake of an imitation of a Jodorowsky book.
I think you meant a Frank Herbert book. Jodorowsky had nothing to do with it other than being attached to a different adaptation that never made it off the ground.

We’re talking about movies.
I claimed Steven Lynch’s film was an imitation of a Jodorowsky book and I meant it.
I claimed Steven Lynch’s film…
finger to ear
I’m being told his name is David.
Steven Lynch makes songs Kazaa labels “Weird Al”.
What’s creative about it? The silly walk they invented? The ‘fuck tonality’ music they came up with? Shiny blue eyes? Sand?
Sand?
I think that’s it. And a bucket, too
Ultimately the issue is greed. Capitalism is just a manifestation of that.
What happens is Innovation at the start focuses on making the product better but at some point the focus changes to make more money and that’s how we get there
I feel it’s logical, there is a break point where quality can’t be reasonably increased to turn profit and that’s when you get everything shitty with capitalism
My ignorant take is that if we could somehow do away with shareholders and also put a cap on how much money an individual can earn, we might be able to have companies that stay good. I dunno tho.
I’m very ignorant too but from what I see
There are measures in place to tax the rich and try to regulate from some countries but the oligarchy has grown too strong there is no way to take down Google or Amazon for example
We will have to slowly take down huge empires before adding any effective regulation it will take decades and it will probably need to be group effort
Governments, like the EU, have shown regulations can be made such as with the Digital Markets Act.
… But that requires a willing and informed government body.
I mean, EA has sucked for a very long time. They bought a bunch of game studios back in the day, gutted them, and shut them down, including Origin, the studio responsible for the Ultima series, whose name EA then used for their Steam wannabe. And they ended the era of competing sports franchises by convincing multiple leagues to give them exclusive licenses.
I’m still pissed that they bought and shut down Westwood Studios.
That developer gave National Treasure Tim Curry the best line reading in history, and EA took away any chance he’d get to reprise the role:
That grunting before “SPACE” is basically him barely able to keep his laughter.

Betrayal!
BETRAYED ME!
EA has been shitty nearly forever, even when every game started with “Its in the game!” You probably just didn’t realize it because you were a kid, but they’ve been hacking out shitty games and shuttering great studios for decades. They were never a mark of quality, they were the mark on the games you could find in the bargain bin at Walmart.
They might be a laughing stock, but they absolutely print money with FIFA/EAFC. They can probably afford to not give a shit about anything else.

We need more headline energy like this and Rolling Stone calling out Kissenger
Finally, a reliable news source!
Needs to be immortalized among the likes of “Headless Body in Topless Bar”
THE MAXIS WILL WRIGHT AGAIN!!!
Ah yes because we need a million additional versions of the same game we already get every year.
The absolute state of games journalism
Epic gamer move
