Why do kids even bother showing a crayon drawing of a dinosaur to their parents to put on the fridge when AI can generate 1000 dinosaur drawings in the same time. Are they stupid?

Important #indiedev / #gamedev tip: Youtubers and streamers may avoid your game if any audio gets flagged by YT's automated copyright system (Content-ID). Check this by uploading the soundtrack as an unlisted video and wait a couple hours for it to scan. I learned this the hard way on my first demo.

My newest obsession is watching commented streams of competive games (AoE2) but ONLY the lowest possible ELOs. Competent players "optimize the fun out of the game" and usually play the same meta, but "bad players" play in such creative and wacky ways you never know what's coming!

The tension and comparison between "indie devs" and "AAA devs" exists only in the minds of gamers (derogatory) and armchair devs who play the vicissitudes of the game industry as a hipster class warfare. Indie devs and AAA devs are often only separated by career decisions and the fortunes of fate.
