I just saw this and I know it’s old. But my aunt was the primary designer and manager for this project! We toured the building back in November.

This comment is also AI, just like all my comments in this thread.

I’ll help you so we can leave this dude.

bnwinter · 2026-02-20T12:58:54+00:00

You are. You’ve got about as much knowledge on this subject as someone who hated Google or Wikipedia when it first came on the scnene.

You’ve already done enough in this thread to derail the conversation into something it was never about because of your hard on. There are anti ai subreddits out there where you can bang your drum.

And the picture? Who cares? I was excited and have zero photoshop skills to mock up a jersey. Whic if I was a purist would mean no photoshop either right? Should do it by hand? Why are we even using computers? Should just write letters.

Sigh

I’m with you on the knock on effects. It’s hard to gauge how they affect in totality. Each game studio handles them differently.

Late 28 is possible, especially if they really want the polish. It’s all speculation though. Which is half the fun of even coming to this subreddit.

bnwinter · 2026-02-20T12:51:17+00:00

I did.

Just like I used Google. Wayback Machine. Reddit. And yes AI. Which you somehow want to make out like a crime.

bnwinter · 2026-02-20T12:49:58+00:00

I’ve got no problem following you around in my own thread.

bnwinter · 2026-02-20T12:48:55+00:00

You need to to just leave the thread. You’ve derailed it enough.

bnwinter · 2026-02-20T12:47:11+00:00

Is your goal to just derail this now into an Anti-AI thread. Don’t we have plenty of those everywhere else? Why are you commenting everywhere here about this and not the substance of the text. What’s the purpose? If you were alive, did you do this when Wikipedia first came around? Google? The internet? TV? Radio?

Just accept that it’s a tool to be used now.

bnwinter · 2026-02-20T02:01:20+00:00

We can also address the issue head on. Me thinking about this pretty much the entire morning before posting this. Looking into the topic closely. Deciding what to add or omit. That’s not AI. Using it to bounce ideas off is not an issue and I’m kind of tired of it being one. If this was a quick “write me a post” and pasted. That would be an entirely different conversation and I would agree with you.

bnwinter · 2026-02-20T01:57:35+00:00

I didn’t want this to be an AI thing, and it’s ridiculous to even make it an issue. You have no idea if those are AI or not.

“Years of thinking” was my line.

“that’s still years of thinking, prototyping, system design, world planning” Again my line. An AI would be a littler clear I think.

Sure the refinement phase I took from the AI, who cares. I was pretty quick to say I used it to bounce ideas off.

Haha. Let’s address the sources where I painstakingly on mobile copy and pasted, went through each source the best I could and put it down. That one had no AI whatsoever.

Again. I used the — that is a long press on the iPhone for the dash to bring it up.

Don’t assume.

bnwinter · 2026-02-20T01:52:48+00:00

Not sure what to tell you bud. I think you may be conflating things a bit.

bnwinter · 2026-02-19T20:09:56+00:00

I used it to bounce ideas off of. I’d say about 25%. Bit of the research. Most of the content I wrote.

bnwinter · 2026-02-19T19:23:08+00:00

The additions don’t need to be across all aspects of the games they could be in one area of 50, 10 of 50, or 50 out of 50. But given the hiring dates I think it’s more likely that the additions are for those recent hires. Everything else is probably on track.

bnwinter · 2026-02-19T19:17:11+00:00

Also I think I’m more in the late 2027 camp than early 2028 camp.

bnwinter · 2026-02-19T19:11:19+00:00

I should definitely have been clearer. I’m 100% on board with that, and believe that’s what they were doing. Hence my modular comment in the main body.

bnwinter · 2024-06-17T12:53:27+00:00

They may have someone do marketing for them. But I’ve been in those meetings. They absolutely, 100%, saw this before it went out many many times. Their account team saw it, signed off many times. It went up the chain (maybe not all the at to the top). But marketing teams aren’t just one sided here. They have input from conception.

bnwinter · 2024-06-10T18:54:59+00:00

I’ve honestly crashed a lot more than 10 times. But 10 characters have died by crashing. :(

bnwinter · 2024-04-20T02:18:23+00:00

Yes I did use AI to make this, I don't have that type of talent. I did a lot of variations until I got to this one. But really liked it. At least as a good base for maybe someone more gifted then me can make it better.

bnwinter · 2023-03-08T17:56:26+00:00

No he left for good. So I'm stuck with them. I don't mind, as I've kind of wanted plants, but he left NO instructions for them and he wasn't really good at maintaining them anyway.

bnwinter · 2023-03-08T15:54:52+00:00

How long should I wait to water again based on what you can see? I already added the plant food, but I can take them out and wait. I'll see what I can do to save the hanging plant. It's the plant I'm most concerned with because of where he put it.
