I am not interested in this but this just sounds like… well observing Sports. Is something you can play as a person yet you watch someone else play. It also costs enormous amounts of money to perform. I don’t watch sports either.

They keyword here is “someone” in “you watch someone else play”. Watching this is like watching the little demos that play in arcade machines while “Insert Coin” flashes on the screen except it requires tens of thousands of times more energy to run.

Nah. I definitely don’t plan on getting this game but there’s a market for what you’re describing. They’re called “idle games” and there’s a shitton of them.

It doesn’t matter if it’s humans playing, many people just like to see things progress. I liked “playing” WorldBox because it was fun to see who won given the “scenario” I put in place. And long before that, I had Progress Quest running

But even idle-games generally have some interaction. You buy buildings or upgrades or whatever. This might as well just be a 3d animated series with shitty videogame graphics for all the difference it makes.

Edit: gotta admit i didnt read the article. Apparently the game doesnt really have graphics. So… An AI-generated piece of written fiction. And an accompanying map. I feel like amazon is full of those
