This is exactly the result. No matter how advanced AI gets, unless the singularity is realized, we will be no closer to some kind of 8-hour workweek utopia. These AI Silicon Valley fanatics are the same ones saying that basic social welfare programs are naive and un-implementable - so why would they suddenly change their entire perspective on life?

I wonder if the cover couple kept some copies for themselves

I did see there would likely be post-launch updates, but I don’t think I have the restraint to wait lol

Anyone else been waiting on this? Rain World has always been a bit of a niche game, but I think it has had a steady creep of popularity, especially with the previous (amazing) DLC release.

Some kind of corpo takeover where every creative and writer who actually created Disco Elysium were forced out, including the lead who came up with the entire universe. It’s not like they can just produce equally good work separately, either; apparently Kurvitz (the writer) needs the right team to focus his creative output.

Good feature to stop you from staying on your phone in bed at night

It’s not bad, the fun stone packaging is the highlight though

System Shock 2 is totally playable still, especially with the HD texture mod - I recommend it to anyone interested. Played it for the first time ever last year.

The main difference between mods and the remaster seems to be that the enemies look strangely “smoother” lol
