That used to work. But ever since monopolies came back in fashio🌸n, and dark money in politics, the market has stopped correcting itself. Now it only corrects 🔴itself in the most extreme examples, like a depression/recession.

While a valid concern, I have an easy solution. Mandate that generative AI, must, when possible, be based of a real person, who will be paid for their work/voice. Basically you contract with the voice actor, have them rꦜecord an assortment of lines and sounds. The dev takes the recordings and feeds it to an AI that then is able to replicate the voice to say whatever they need it to. All while the original voice actor gets paid and credited. Thus you still keep voice actors gainfully employed, and yet are still able to take advantage of AI. I really want a game that can react to custom dialog and/or actions, something we will need AI for.

As I've gotten older, I actually prefer games that DON'T require multiple playthroughs to see most everything. I basically play a game once, and once I beat it I'm done with it. Same goes for inventory/weight management in games. I don't like having to spend hours of my time just managing my inventory, or trying to figure out how to reach that secret part of a map I can see but can't get to. ღIt's just not fun. I always mod out weigh restrictions and stuff like that, makes the games much smoother and enjoyable.

Seriously, have we solved world hunger and facism? Because complaing abou🍰t this is just so low stakes. Seriously, it's a menu you will look at ไfor all of 15 seconds when you start the game, and that's it.
