How is artificially inflating the price and eliminating competition fair? That sounds almost as bad as where we are now. While we're at it, how could having to pay ANYTHING AT ALL for something that otherwise anyone could get for free ever possibly be fair or just? My ideal scenario for this...

I think following a virtual cult leader would be healthier and safer than following a real one. The AI cult leader isn;t going to steal all your money; at worst it might send you down a Winchester-esque rabbithole of spending money on superstitious nonsense, but it won't outright swindle you...

Most of the stuff that's copyrighted now should be public domain but the big media companies keep bribing congress to extend the duration of copyrights. If it lasted a reasonable amount of time like patents do I'd be with you, but not under the farcical current laws where copyrights can easily...

Yeah that could drive the price up so high it could become as overpriced as human writers and artists, completely completing the cost-cutting benefit of this technology and making bespoke writing and artwork once again the exclusive purview of the rich elite who can afford to throw their money...

So the only thing this will accomplish is screwing over the common man. That is the one and only difference it will make. Why would you want to take something that could be a boon to everyone and turn it into something that only benefits the 1%?

This seems about right for spiritualist kooks. I mean, it's literally automatic writing.

I agree. I think it would be more likely to destroy your ability to enjoy the thing than it would be to make the job enjoyable

It's the duty of the seller to deliver a working finished product. They can make whatever stylistic or gameplay design decisions they want, but technical aspects such as saving, adjusting volume, resizing the screen, etc should be expected to be up to snuff and not rely on obsolete systems born...

The only thing I can think of is if people are allowed to freely save they'll see the endgame enough times to know that it doesnt have any content. That said, that's for the developer, not the player

Yes, but a lack of mechanics inherently eliminates some of the more magical choices such as shifters and changelings

I like most of the races except for halflings and dragonborn, both of which always struck me as kind of lame. I prefer kobolds or draconians when a dragonish humanoid is needed. And also, basing everything around humans always struck me as kind of unimaginative. Also I like the more furry-ish...

Couldn't you also get perfect green by desensitizing the blue and red cones with colored light

I despise when a game has any limitations on saving. Checkpoints are a bother, and so is being unable to save to a new file in the middle of a run, and so is havin a limited number of save slots. Why do so many modern games have a fixed number of save slots as if they were running on a cartridge...

They're still there. They're not needed. People do it that way because that's the way they've always done it.

So like a person who reads a bunch of stories and then is inspired to write their own story

Thank you. It's nice to see that someone else here has actually researched this. We need better STEM education.

I've been saying this for TWENTY YEARS! They were an obsolete middleman the moment that the internet became mainstream.

Exactly! They're a big content producing corporation. Do you all really think that they need scraped content to make you obsolete? The only thing that eliminating scraped content is going to do is ensure that only big corporations like Hasbro have access to AI. They will be all powerful and the...

3.5e mixed with best ideas from pathfinder 1, 5e, and osr, and furthermore also somehow tweaked to achieve the following: *Order that classes are taken in shouldn't matter in multiclass builds; this mainly necessitates a change in the bonus skills at first level and how permanent changes in...

A couple of the things on that list seem spurious. The 2016 Ghostbusters movie had nothing to do with the rest of the series, and The Last Jedi introduced plot holes and also had internal plot holes and it butchered the characterization of beloved Star Wars characters. I think in that era it was...
