@RaminNasibov Star Wars Galaxies - first few hours just wandering around completely immersed.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@TourSwingsTommy And?

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@DMC_Ryan @CaseyDHudson 15-20 hours with branching narrative would be absolutely perfect. Hell even 10-15

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@unusual_whales @JezCorden Yes - don’t use it for that. Use it to automate boring monotonous repeatable crap.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@levie Actively doing this today at PlayStation Studios 🎯

Search is full of ads and wrong answers. Every other email is an ad. Prime Video charges you and shows ads. Paramount? Ads. Peacock? YouTube? Hulu? Ads followed by more ads. Netflix full of ads. Meta and X, every other thing is an ad. Pinterest is nothing but ads. AI is in everything. AI finishes sentences incorrectly and won’t stop. AI reads your email and search history to target you with more ads. Every time you open an app or visit a site there’s an update making it worse. In a hurry? First, click here to agree to terms you don’t have time to read and must accept. You need an account to do that. Change your temporary password. Enter your 2FA code. Check your email and enter that code. Now use a passkey. Your password is too simple to remember. Change it. No, not like that. Now log on. Enter your 2FA code. Check your email for a code… Welcome back! We’ve updated our terms of service and privacy policy (you have none). Subscribe to the site. Subscribe to Netflix. Subscribe to toilet paper. Subscribe to these groceries. Pay a membership fee for the right to subscribe then tip your driver who delivers the subscriptions your membership lets you subscribe to. Time to work? We’ve got to update your laptop and will slow down everything you do until you agree to update. But first, click here to agree. Update installed — your laptop’s broken now. It doesn’t matter, since your boss just replaced you with AI. Go to your phone to complain on social media. Wait, your phone needs an update so we can add more AI. Click here. Oh sorry, your phone can’t handle this update. Now it’s useless. Go get the newest phone. Here’s a text from a friend, an email, a voice mail they left three days ago but you didn’t see until now because of sync problems with the cloud. It’s their GoFundMe. Their MLM. Their Patreon. Never mind, you didn’t respond to their text within 9 minutes and now you’re no longer friends. They blocked you. Make new friends. Download this app to find people in your area. In your neighborhood. On your street. Two doors down from you. Do you know this person yet, we think you’d get along. You need an account to use this app. That username is taken. Enter a password. Not that one, you used it on another site. You need to be connected to WiFi to download the app. Allow the app to connect to other devices on your network. Allow the app to access your contacts, know your precise location, store your credit card details. Oops, sorry, we got hacked now all that info is available on the web. There’s a class action suit. You can join. It’ll take a decade to get your $3.73 share of the ten billion settlement. We’ll send it via PayPal or deposit it to your bank, just tell us those details. Oh no, another hack. That info is circulating now, too. Here’s a spam call, a spam email, a spam text. Why are you angry? Why are you talking about getting rid of your phone? Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???

@sweatystartup This dude is the master tweeter. Every tweet is pure rage bait 😂

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@Xbox_Nostalgia Best game of all time.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@zuess05 Right take is somewhere in the middle. But as a senior dev I tend to agree devs are obsessed with artisanal code.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@dave_christison Busiest course in Utah. No tee times ever. Range us 3 people deep in every bay every day by 4pm.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@Govindtwtt At least we’ll have a job 🤷😂

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@Cromwelp KCD2 Was GOTY. CO:E33 was massively overrated.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@zuess05 Knowing what to build and how to actually put it in production and make it work without breaking all the time is the actual job. Coding was just a tool that engineers used to get there. All AI does is change out the tool. The layoffs aren’t due to AI.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@koralinadean This must have a good script because they've got some ball players in the cast.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@imbobswaget It’s Real real good

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@JezCorden Those people worked on Marvel Midnight Sons and are now on Star Wars Zero Company!

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@MightyKeef 100%. My new most anticipated game.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@PaulTassi @Forbes If it’s good no one will care. Plus it’ll have way more content than the films.

But yes it’s still a bit weird.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@Cromwelp Second had smoke in an airport is the perfect analogy. Lol.

[Cameron Warren @masssgeneric]

@KahliefAdams Not the genre - the specific games on that list. Circana has shown that people do not change their live service game of choice - basically ever.
