Production, most likely

  1. Old series that has a decent following of mostly niche dedicated fans is left to sit without a new installment for many years.

  2. New title is announced. It's sells gang-busters and flips the community on its head.

  3. Corporate Executives prioritize short term profits and begin planning a quick and easy cash grab. !

  4. Second new installment comes out. It is a shell of the previous title with the soul sucked clean out.

  5. Fans are dissapointed and outside of a small niche following the game series falls into obscurity.

  6. Repeat.

! we are here right now

Look.. Maybe BG4 will be good. But after watching this exact cycle play out over and over again for the past decade I'm not sure how you can expect anything else.

Oh shit, there's a working open source switch emulator out there? Thanks Nintendo!

Aaaaaaaand downloaded the source code, Windows Installer, and Linux installer. Thanks again Nintendo, I really can't express how thankful I am you brought attention to this!

It's so easy for the propagandists to convince western racists that DPRK is backwards and underdeveloped.

This you?

I can guarantee there is a significant number of people who do want more AI crap.

Hell I can understand why. If it was done ethically and with user privacy as a core tenant of its implementation I would probably love having convenient access to AI tools like that.. But this is Microsoft so I think I'm gonna instead go the opposite direction and add this to the list of reasons my next PC will be Linux

Okay but forcing someone to pay you $550k (averaging your values) to not die maybe is still incredibly fucking awful, so it's really not hard to be better than that.

I can respect that developing a personalized vaccine might take a lot of work but I'm not a chemist. I don't know how much work it actually takes, nor do I know how many vaccines a person would realistically need to cure their cancer be it stage 1 up to stage 4?

What I do know is that if this vaccine ends up being more effective than the traditional method then it is a wonderful discovery, but if it leads to life-long medical debt and subsequent financial ruin all the same your life is still fucked.. I guess I'd rather be poor and alive, but I'd also rather not be destitute.
