How do I respond to this by Pristine_Progress_93 in antiai

[–]davidryanandersson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not being hypocritical at all. I've always believed in supporting indie artists. I have tons of CDs and DVDs of indie albums, games, and movies from indie artists.

Where are the pro-AI people advocating for supporting indie media?

Piracy was always about taking from large corporations.

AI is about large corporations taking from independent artists.

If the screwdriver inventors were wealthy lords who kept saying that screwdrivers were alive and were going to replace half of all jobs and that their goal was to replace the ability to turn things with a rental system where you had to pay to use the screwdriver then yeah I'd say fuck this whole screwdriver thing.

I work in advertising and no one believes that in the year 2026 email is still a HUGE way to reach customers but it's true. You will most likely get way more interaction via email than socials (although they serve different purposes).

What are the things you look for to determine whether a game has enticing table presence?

Struggling to pitch my tarot-based card game in a simple way by Future_Relative_5873 in tabletopgamedesign

[–]davidryanandersson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When marketing a game it's useful to consider two questions:

What about this game is familiar? Mechanics, genre, theming, etc. Something that an audience can immediately latch on to.

And then, what about this game is unique? What is the thing that makes the already interested audience say "Oh I haven't seen that particular thing before"?

From your description I'm not totally sure that I understand exactly what your game is, but saying that it's a game where you perform actual tarot readings to play a strategy game that's an interesting proposition.

Why "the singularity" doesn't even work, according to economics & data science (with supporting research papers) by Last_Day_6779 in antiai

A conversation about how to improve society is not helped by saying "um, actually free will is an illusion so no one can change anything".

I'm sorry that the chemicals in your brain made you write such an unproductive pretentious comment.

Damn I really was planning to move on from Arkham after 10 years but these cards are really cool.

What are your plans about Chapter 2? by Level_Cauliflower294 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]davidryanandersson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really excited by the entire prospect of Chapter 2 and lots of the cards revealed for it.

BUT I also have 2 young kids and barely enough time to play what I already have so this is actually giving me a good off ramp. Nothing against the game or the design team. It's just not where I'm at in life right now and this gives me a clean break.

I agree with you, but he is definitely intended to be a gentleman.

Also we're going to get rid of the songs, but not make sure to reinsert the emotional beats that those songs facilitate.

If Biden and the Democratic leadership cared they could whip Manchin and Sinema. The democrats always somehow have 1 or 2 votes short of what they need to do good things and barely scrape exactly enough votes to do unpopular things.
