The problem with this solution is that there’s been a free solution for over 30 years now, it’s called the difficulty select. If this solution is going to replace difficulty select it should be free. Just because they decide to reinvent the wheel doesn’t mean we should be paying for it.

No difficulty selection option is perfect. Developers need to make the difficulty for each level and for every kind of player perfect, which is not possible. Otherwise we would not have games in the past 30 years (and longer) getting stuck, even if we can change the difficulty of the game. That’s why we have so many game guides for all type of games. Hell it might even be a bug or misunderstanding of the player, not just a skill issue. No difficulty slider can solve this problem.

Letting someone else play for you is not reinventing the wheel, that is something we never had in an automated form. Should it be free? Why? There is lot of tech behind it, and development. I understand if it costs money. I personally don’t care if it costs money or not, its not something I would use. But I think its great to have for those who need it. … let’s just put the Ai problems to the side for a moment, I am talking about an ideal case.

  • 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
  • 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
  • 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
