At this point they should just hire the Heroic devs, I doubt anything they could build themselves would compare in terms of quality.


You should be a Luddite because they were right. My point wasn’t that we should embrace AI (trust me, I’m one of its most dedicated haters), but that just because technology produces lower quality goods doesn’t mean it won’t catch on. It’s going to take more than jeering mockery to stop capitalist embracing something that lets them deskill workers.


I’m about half way through Blood in the Machine by Brian Merchant, a book about the Luddites, and one of the things he’s emphasised quite a lot is the complaints of people at the time about the lower quality of automated textiles compared to artisan-made ones.


He bought the company to bolster his lawsuits against Apple and Google, only to fob it off to Songtradr a few years later in the middle of the staff unionising. Songtradr then sacked half the staff (coincidentally all the ones who were part of the union) and still refuse to recognise the union to this day.

Corp. logic truly is something else.



True. I need to go back and replay NV again, but I do remember Lonesome Road being one of DLCs I enjoyed the least.


I really enjoyed the show, it was good. I just wish it didn’t take place in California. I hate that Bethesda’s idea of Fallout is a wasteland in never-ending strife, one that can never move past the scrappy survivor stage of the post-apocalypse.


I’m not saying that these, or remakes generally, are bad(I’ve even been thinking of picking up the DS remake). I just don’t think they should be contenders for GOTY.


Why are two remakes on this? It’s not like this year has been short on good releases.
