What are you on about? This sorta thing has been called AI in games forever. This has nothing to do with the Gen AI fad that’s going on.

Gotta ask: do you take issue with “10 items or less” signs?

I personally find your/you’re very tricky for whatever reason.

Like, I know which one I’m supposed to use, but I occasionally find myself using the wrong one every now and then for some inexplicable reason.

Just added it to my homepage. I’m surprised how good it is.

I’ll have to try it a bit more, but it might become my default until Mlem is more fully developed.

what sort of features is ivory missing?

No that’s not the issue. That’s not why they’re saying pirate the game. The issue is they’re also getting hit by chargeback fees from those fraudulent sales.

I swear everyone here is missing the point.

The issue is scammers buy keys with stolen or fraudulent credit card info, then they sell those keys via key resellers like G2A to make money.

Meanwhile the original sale gets disputed, and the sellers are hit with a chargeback, which means not only do the developers have to pay back the money they made, but they also LOSE money because of chargeback fees that credit card companies levy on them for the disputed transaction.

It doesn’t matter that they can void the key that was fraudulently purchased, they still lost money on that sale because of the chargeback fee. That’s why they’re saying “please at least pirate it”, because in that case, while they’re not making a sale, they’re at least not losing money on the transaction.
