Awful. Just awful. A parent of mine just recently passed away and I miss them every day. I would never do this ghoulish thing.

Herself. Did you read the article?

You know the monitors don’t get paid, I hope.

Everyone : If you want to give them more how about paying them better while the game is in development? Former Blizzard president : No, not like that.

Feel free to come up with your own thesis for the behaviour then. Why do you think a bunch of discussion has formed around a falsehood where all the parties of that discussion seem to agree and yet none have discussed the subject matter at all.

How can you possibly know if an account is or is not a bot in this age of LLMs?

And the value is where it’s always been - astroturfing.

Are you paid to craft distraction posts? The headline and article are clear but your post (clearly upvoted by bots) is now the point of discussion (likely some responders are also the same bot accounts).

How much do you earn in service of corporate interests?

LLM AI doesn’t learn. It doesn’t conceptualise. It mimics, iterates and loops. AI cannot generate original content with LLM approaches.

I don’t consider it a principled stance, quite the opposite. I think Keighley is mercenary. The point is that the article repeats and solidifies those concerns - it accurately calls him out for both his silence when people are suffering and his faux interest when he can push a product (in this case a recruiter) who benefits himself. My point raised about Kojima is that he complains about things when he’s safe to do so and then will even go beyond complaint to grandstanding using the full weight of his awards to make it seem like he has a concerned moral position to share.

He didn’t just give Kojima an award in absentia, he very directly and deliberately complained that Konami would not let Kojima attend to receive the award. He makes comments and has strong opinions when it’s safe for him to do so.

You’re not wrong about his press-as-marketing nature but in no way does this mean he shouldn’t be criticised for his actions in this case, in fact I would think these actions bolster the critique.

Do you find it at all strange that you have a strong reaction to something given you know you have little context for?

So you did no research, gained no understanding, didn’t follow any of the linked resources and instead decided that you feel uncomfortable.

Keighley has a history of standing out in front of larger issues, only a few years he literally castigated Konami at his awards show for how it fired Hideo Kojima and then celebrated the man in his absence.

This article makes clear the nature of his so called convictions- they are for sale. If that doesn’t make you uncomfortable but a cited article written by a respected journalist does then I would say you might want to think more about what makes you uncomfortable and why.

How generous of you, except that those who you align with aren’t so generous and your claim that this should be state by state leads to the literal rape victims going to jail for losing a pregnancy through no fault of their own. In short, you have no business in these discussions because yours is untrustworthy opinion.

How about you just admit that you’re anti-abortion instead of trying to frame this Russian propaganda as interesting.

Amazing how you completely contradict yourself in one sentence. Much like Erdogan.

Gus Sorola was always a complete piece of shit in my humble opinion and this was never more clear than his lame attempt to attack Jeff Gerstmann over Fallout 4 while hosting what was clearly a Bethesda funded podcast.
