Why make a new game when you can make money from micro transactions in your current one.
You are being facetious, but the question demands an answer: there IS no good reason for investors. It’s very likely Rockstart genuinely would not have made as much money developing new properties as they did exploiting their established ones. And if they did, it would have been a gamble vs a virtual sure thing.
The demands of capital are not compatible with art. These companies don’t serve our needs, they exploit our desires. Don’t buy art from corporations, buy it from artists.
When I came across this (not for the first time) a few years ago, I was staggered. It was like I saw a kid shooting hoops when graduated from elementary school in the 90s, came back 30 years later, and saw the same kid still shooting hoops with a beard around his knees. I really aught to see what three decades of development produced…
No don’t look it up, simply assume that you know what it means without ever seeing a definition because your brain is just better than everyone else’s.

Introduction
Open source doesn’t just mean access to the source code. The distribution terms of open source software must comply with the following criteria:

I think you are reading in the “designed by humans” part. Even when that is nominally true, the whole point of procedural generation is to create a level of complexity and emergence that the outputs are surprising and novel. Things no one expected are desirable. I think the distinction being drawn is not meaningful; in both cases, it is entirely possible and likely that no human being understands how a given output was arrived at.

So, normal people having a bad day. We must aggressively treat people having bad days, even if they don’t consent to treatment, because normies are a violent threat to public safety.
Less ironically, I don’t agree with your distinction. When people say that “mental issues” cause people to shoot up a school, I think they are talking about serious psychological disorders, not a transient state of mind that might happen to anyone. They are unconsciously looking for an “other” to blame.
How quickly you retreat to sophistry. I said what I meant. Everyone can see it right there, you cannot twist it, no matter how you try. The vast majority of murders and other violent acts are committed by people who are not dealing with any mental disabilities. Contrarily, people with mental disabilities commit violence far less than the general population. When you said, “People with mental health issues shoot up schools,” you might have merely been speaking imprecisely, but then you doubled down on it. I suggest you do some research on the subject before you stigmatize mental illness again.
In 2024, years after his disbarment from practicing law, as well as his notoriety with gamers fading with the passage of time, Jack Thompson had appeared to have denounced his disdain for video games. On an interview with the My Perfect Console podcast, Thompson praised video games for helping out disabled people with their interactive nature.[50][51][52][53][54][55]
WELL AINT THAT SOME SHIT
We all knew it was performative.
NO, people with mental health issues are less likely to commit violence than the general population. Violence is fully within the normal human gamut.
