A government could also just seize the studio and do that, no need to give any more dollars to the house of Saud. In fact a government could do this for every studio and transfer it to be collectively owned and governed by the workers. For every business even, not just game studios! O:

this is what Ive been talking about I want to see games developed for older, cheaper systems. a ps5 game does not have better gameplay than a ps2 game (ie: thats not the constraint) lets ditch these RTX raytrace boxes and get back to the real shit, fun games that dont require 500 person teams

this is why AI users should not be in charge of anything. Imagine fantasizing about a Dreamcast 2 and the first thing you throw out is the iconic off-white matte finish. or not understanding that any modern system would need 2 joysticks to survive in any game ecosystem I shake my head at thee

There is no such thing as art without a human on one end of the line and a human on the other end. In communication with each other.

Everyone's incredibly angry now. The people you're angry at are very far away but close to you are many soft bodies that are easy to injure if you choose to lash out. I can't tell you how to use your anger. But I need you to at least follow the fucking link & check if it's bs before going off abt it
