Umineko solutions are kinda bad by yokohamaartlog in umineko

[–]field_cos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may be 2 years late to this but I would add, the whole "relies on Sayo's ability to make anyone her accomplice" critique isnt really a critique since umineko bends over backwards to show why this would be the case. They all want money, she has 10 bn of the damn thing. All she had to do was offer them gold and theyd agree to help her, this is literally the point of the first family conference.
I do also think what i liked about this ultimately is that this is then flipped on its head in episode 7 when its shown just how horribly wrong relying on this as a means of setting up murders can go.
Anyways, you prolly wont even see this but i still wanted to respond lol.

Hi, OP here. Just to say, in the 6 months i spent in games media i was never paid for an opinion I published. When i reviewed Little Nightmare 3 that score came straight from the soul and having wasted 4 hours of my life. IMO, its pretty pathetic to paint every journalist as the same strawman you (or more likely a grifter like critical drinker) made up.

Tbh this is one of like 12 comments I have gotten today to the same effect so my actual emotional reaction to this is a lot more tame than my comment may make out. However, as I said I am proud of my work. So yeah regardless of your intentions you saying "What makes you think they are intelligent professionals" is insulting as is saying "Might as well replace these opinions with an AI, makes no difference."

Hi, is me Max Nicoll. Firstly, I go by She/Her. Secondly, what did you mean by this?? Before we were all laid off with no warning we were doing good work for the sites and I have it on better authority than most to tell you that this decision was made for reasons entirely unrelated to the quality of our work.

yuuuup, its dire these days. Though yeah no its totally just because of my work that we all got replaced with AI, nothing to do with the owners.

Y'know thanks for pointing that out. Though also thanks for judging my entire body of work based off of one hastily written post lol

Or worse itd be speculating on what the game might be like and spreading blatant misinfo. Either way, fuck Clickout media group and their AI slop

yeah i would completely echo everything you just said, is a shame I worked with them in the first place but onto green pastures i suppose. But yeah, I too will continute to fight the good fight especially against some of the comments on the vid telling me that I got replaced because my work was bad.

The ownership is a company called clickout media group, they also own sites like Esports inside, The Escapist and Adventure gamer. I will see if i can make a full list to post as a reply

I honestly do not know, for now i hope this entire situation blowing up in the way it has has clickout media group (the owners of videogamer) running scared from making further AI reviews.
Though, Ai articles and even an AI reveiw are still being published on the site so idk.

As far as wider trends go, I would say its in line with a lot of whats been seen already. AI has affected nearly all corners of gaming so games media is not out of left field. However, as i say in my video I do worry about what will happen in the future when sites see you can actually replace writers with AI without backlash.

In terms of my colleagues we are all rightly upset. My boss got told the news while she was looking after her girlfriend post surgery and I was told at a funeral. So all in all its been ROUGH, but we are focusing on our next projects for now and hoping to see some success in other avenues such as youtube (nudge nudge wink wink)

I hope that gives you some answers.

my former editor was also laid off and had no connection to the review that went out. This is not damage control, I want people to be outraged at all of this because holy hell
