Comment on Xbox’s leadership shift proves it: the gamer era is over, AI runs the show now
fishy@lemmy.today 20 hours agoWould it even matter to a FIFA player though? The game’s mechanics are not that different from generation to generation and I think AI could decently simulate player stats and likeness. They’ll probably lap the slop up and ask for more.

Well FIFA players are mostly just gamblers so that checks out. The contingent of non-gamblers should be big enough to sway the rest of the industry if they really did stop spending though. Unfortunately I don’t think it’s going to happen. Most big games are attempting to shift their players slowly into gambling addiction too. Roblox, Fortnite, Overwatch, they’re all attempting to hook players on gambling. We need regulation to more heavily restrict those games from having anything related to gambling in them before we can expect players to bail (or stop spending) in large enough numbers to make anything change.
