I have no choice but to assume being the head of XBox somehow gives you mind control powers, sites cover XBox the way real news covers Trump

I continue to enjoy the Call of Duty games. Modern Warfare 2 has the most pathetic plot of all time though. How do you literally do Red Dawn shit in 2009. We are never the underdog, guys.

the trump admin went 'we don't need soft power' just like every executive went 'pfft, we don't need to MAKE things' and now every american company is broken forever and america is about 18 months from no longer being the dominant global superpower

the trump administration mirrors the executive class so strongly that it's actually kinda wild. both have no understanding of how anything works but think they do and go around pulling out foundational aspects of how things function and then get confused when shit doesn't work

It's very funny Joyce Carol Oates looked at AI and instantly assessed what it was going to be used for and who it was going to be used by and got closer than 99.9% of people online

Or to put it more briskly: This is the natural end result of applying 'the customer is always right' to art.

there was a quiet compromise reached between corporations and the mass market where it was fine to devalue, censor and generally pummel and harass creative into submission if they never had to feel sad, confused or angry about something in a movie or game or show

This makes complete sense when you look at what projects dominate pop culture, is an machine that spits out slop according to a checklist really that big a difference from a highly corporate movie or game that has 100 different middle managers making sure it follows 100 brand guides?

end result of a decade+ of corps treating art like Product and fine-tuning it to this end, many don't view art as a thing made by another person as a form of communication, they view it as a product like milk or eggs, ergo if you can have a machine endlessly produce things to your tastes, good

IN FACT this was the intention of people like Bobby Kotick from the start. Remove the creative process. Figure out a formula that basically anyone can repeat. That puts all the power in executives and makes creative roles expendable

who cares who made it so long as its the brand you recognize, and A LOT of people have fallen into that way of thinking

frankly, corporations have been pushing this for decades brands are important, not artists sequels to games, movies, etc., are often made by completely different people and companies do their best to hide that
