I used Claude and Gemini to analyze 33 short student papers and then I hand-coded them and the difference in value was dramatic. LLMs cannot assess importance or meaning in qualitative data. Like at all. All it can do is prevalence. So the analysis was genuinely skipped.

They would never show wishlist to sales conversion degradation over the same period because that would be the truth.

Calling on my ancestors for guidance but the only one who answers is a weird eutherian rodent-mammal from the early cretaceous period. "EAT BERRY SLEEP UNDER ROCK" it says. Pretty good advice

This is really disheartening. Game discovery is already in a bad way.

should take responsibility for this & definitely reign in the unstable AI that is mis-managing their ad tech from creative to customer support.

This. Seeing some of Canada's best indies have to go up against (and lose to) Dragon Age in many categories at the last Canadian Game Awards was crushing. Yes, Dragon Age was also made by Canadians, but it was made by hundreds if not thousands of people unlike say Balatro, Venba, or Lil' Guardsman.

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

Reflections from David Lynch that sum up my feelings on the last day of Gamescom. Glad I came to remember what I love about making video games.
