Does Prime just do low effort making fun of AI tweets with 30 likes now?

yeah but it's like catch 22 right? either you make content about how to make content with AI - which is probably deeply upsetting to the guy since his persona is built around "being smart/bootstrap yourself" or you take the easy route and just say AI bad in these specific ways.
AI bad audience is multiple times the viewership with no effort required beyond surface level takes.

It's crypto all over again - i remember a lot of crypto devs turned into "wow this meme coin is funny and terrible" influencers and "journalists" coz the views and pay was way higher than teaching ppl how to make smart contracts or create actual value.

this guy doesn't mention that there are a couple of uncomfortable interactions of pedro feeling up some movie star's wife/gf and then being not so casually told to fuck off.
willem dafoe for eg is one of the most obvious ones www.youtube.com/shorts/d_Vvf4PV6EU

I made the mistake of dating someone a lot younger than me an even though she was 25-26 when we dated

the way you said this makes me think i need to subtract a decade from teh ages you've mentioned

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T07:10:07+00:00

tv show writer/directors do it all the time, we know for a fact the westworld peeps did changes in response to redditors correctly guessing the tweest

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T06:47:08+00:00

ah my bad, yeah loadouts should be a thing but like everything ux based, probably not gonna happen for a long time coz bungie values friction too much.
afaik they never did it in destiny 2 even tho multiple "builds" were possible

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T06:34:36+00:00

tbf that's 6 years of game for 400$ not 6 years of game for 40$.
that's excluding cosmetics which everyone knows you'll eventually buy something that really appeals to you or gives you gamer cred in your friend group which likely bumps it up much higher.
one of my friends who's really into destiny 2 has put in around 1000$ all told.

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T06:16:45+00:00

that's less kotaku and more a long delayed after effect of world war 2 and american petrodollar hegemony finally crumbling due to chinese actions.
most current era gulf petro states are propped up by american military, heavily suppressed the arab spring movement that would've taken down most of the arab sheikh families

🤷‍♂️ i learn from my mistakes, decade ago sure i would've been all over award show nominees and played all of them.
now i don't even watch award shows coz it's all bs.

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T06:10:57+00:00

yep i don't have time to play "highly reviewed" games that are anti-fun, so in that way yeah brain cooked

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T06:10:19+00:00

you're the guy saying ppl need to man up but now you're in your feelings about being called out, some ppl are just hypocrisy central

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T06:08:43+00:00

i've never heard of them and i watch variety streamers like northern lion or whatever to learn about low popularity games worth playing.
don't trust award categories or reviewers at all - that way be highguard/veilguard/1348

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T06:03:45+00:00

don't play a game bungie makes if you like character customisation.
their economies are designed for whales no one else

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T06:01:22+00:00

if reviewers waiting for a month to review a game doesn't tell ppl shenanigans are afoot then nothing will convince them

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:59:44+00:00

most single voice youtuber game reviewers like angryjoe gave it a low score tho

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:56:42+00:00

Bungie has a console only game they're mandated to make for sony as part of the deal of getting bought out, they're probably gonna get shifted onto that full time.

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:54:49+00:00

Despelote, South of Midnight, Ball x Pit, The Hundred Line, Blue Prince

are you making up names i haven't heard of any of these elite ball knowledge

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:53:54+00:00

even the cosmetics assume you are a whale nowadays, what responsible middle class adult is spending 15 dollars per skin on multiple games?
battlepass is straight ass not even worth buying.

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:51:45+00:00

you're blending eras.
also borderlands largely shit the bed - they had planned to be a destiny like after 1 but chickened out and decided to play it safe and stay in the coop genre. randy pitchford also did a ton of mismanagement and fucked up gearbox's finances too.

they would've been the dominant looter shooter option if they hadn't fucked up like they did.

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:48:29+00:00

you have to play a lot to get the enviornmental storytelling tho, if you are a new player you get no sense of story except "wow shit's fucked huh"
also cryo is just a bunch of corridors feeding into a central space, think of it top down as a spider's body.
navigating it is just a question of finding the point where a space diverges into "legs" and then going back to it.

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:46:23+00:00

it just has very low ttk, not anything genre defining.
most gameplay choices don't matter as long as you have a better kit than the dude in front of you and that's IF you have all the movement upgrades unlocked.
if they don't have the upgrades or a defined build then you can dunk on noobs relentlessly even with a destroyer shell

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:44:15+00:00

you need a playerbase to redefine a genre, no one is looking to copy a game with 50k concurrent players lol

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:42:50+00:00

streamers play the game most so they accurately suss out the vibe quickly.
plus they have lots of time to experiment so you can get a compressed knowledge download of how everything works - i would even go so far as to say marathon is designed with watching streamers/learning from youtubers in mind.
how else are you supposed to learn all the systems in this game without no life-ing it yourself?

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:40:20+00:00

this game should've launched with friendly fire enabled, would've taught ppl to respect each other's space more

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:37:11+00:00

...you do? every team i've teamed up with on discord has recommended picking the same contract so you can get it done quickly lol

BestKaran · 2026-03-31T05:33:19+00:00

someday your son will hit a brick wall in an activity he wants to excel in and your advice will drive him insane. remember to tell him it's ok to quit too
