Market self regulation assumes informed consumers that are smart enough to know what things mean. Also it assumes healthy competition and companies that are competing to make the best product at the chrapest price. It ALSO assumes brand lotalty isn’t a thing, and consumers are judging things purely objectively.

Like, i understand the idea, but in practice there are a ton of caveats.

Reminds me of this scene.

That’s why all the AI are trained on six fingered people- it’s Inigo still looking for his father’s killer. It’s like some kinda terminator spinoff.

It’s really telling how their shiny new games are so lacking in substance that they are afraid of retro games. ‘Surely it can’t be that out generic mmofps crafting shooter collectathon battle Royale clone game is bad. It must be that damn Tetris game stealing all our sales!’

Nobody said Firewatch yet?

I’ll also add To The Moon as well. I could list more, but almost any game where narrative is the main focus and gameplay is secondary.

I was never really social to begin with, so I just resumed being my normal introverted self.

I still get hit hard from just the trailer.
