At this point he has whined about it so much that everyone’s going to know the game uses AI, even if they don’t disclose it. He would have genuinely being better off shutting up about it.

There’s a real economic cost to [blah blah crybaby way of saying AI disclosures]
Yes. There is. Because informed consumers vote with their wallets. As it should be. Moron.

The Epic Store has always been anti-consumer so it’s no surprise he defends that kind of practice.

Every 10th item on rhe epic store is soft core FMV fantasy girlfriend porn.

I’m not sure what your point is because Steam is absolutely flooded with porn games, especially since the rise of genAI.

It’s not about availability, it’s about marketing. I don’t stumble across porn games on steam, but I regularly do on Epic.

It gives consumers free games and takes a smaller cut from the developers than steam. All corporations have mutually exclusive interests with the consumer tho.

Wow, amazing. Nevermind that most those giveaways are on sales for peanuts anyway. And you get them on garbage launcher.
and takes a smaller cut from the developers than steam.
Great, they take smaller cut. At a low, low cost of being a black hole of exposure. But hey! They do take a smaller cut from the two copies you do sell.

They do that to try to gain marketshare. They should try to just stop being shitty instead and improve their client. And get off Xitter.

This is every single action any entity which exists to extract profit from you that isn’t immediately increasing revenue or decreasing expenses/wages.
They should try to just stop being shitty
Once again, this is done to gain marketshare
It’s weird as fuck to see people with loyalty to one corporation or another.

I notice slopcoders often maintain that “slop code is just as good as code written by humans- in fact it is better!” while also absolutely refusing to clearly label their output as slop.
