    I applied for them once. Went through multiple rounds of bullshit, to just be turned down without giving me a reason or any feedback. One of the rounds was answering a list of inane questions such as “what would your highschool friends say about you?”. Never again.








  • I like this analogy and it’s a good way to think about this sort of AI help, but I guess the problem arises when people don’t have the same awareness. If you don’t realise it’s more fun/satisfying, you might never take the training wheels off. I know it seems obvious to me or you but a lot wouldn’t see that correlation.

    I’ve been playing co-op games recently and half my group want to revert the save anytime anything goes south. I always refuse (I host) and we’ve had some really fun times digging ourselves out of the hole. Even the save scummers agree they were the most fun playthroughs, but then they still want to save scum next time.






  • This is the reason I stopped playing pubg and I couldn’t get my head round it either. In theory people may enjoy it more because it’s easier to win, and who doesn’t like winning? Yes it’s not a real win against bots but the bots are a secret so maybe it feels like a real win?

    But it’s obvious that you’re against bots. If people enjoy playing against bots why not just include a bot mode?

    I see a few possible reasons

    1. Most people are ignorant to the bots. They play a few games, they win, they’re happy. They don’t realise they only had 4 humans in their lobby.

    2. People eventually realise they’re against bots but the devs are stupid. They did some focus groups and detected people being happy. These people would have eventually realised they’re against bots and hated it but the focus groups didn’t detect that. Like a pepsi challenge.

    3. Blissful ignorance? People kind of know they’re against bots but turn a blind eye and wins still feel good. They wouldn’t play a specific 100% bot mode because they want a “real win”



  • Right, I’ve been waiting for somebody to say this. You come in here with your smarmy attitude “you can just hold it down you know 😏”. How many computers have you tried this on? I’ve tried it on one. Once. And it didn’t work. I looked like a FOOL because I trusted some idiot on the internet. So fuck you I’m not doing it again. I’m going to repeatedly smash F2 and Del and maybe F12. Like God intended.
