Fuck AI. Fuck it, fuck it, fuck it. Kazuma Kaneko’s Tsukuyomi is a good example of why game developers should never touch Gen AI.

Squint hard enough, and the AYANEO Pocket AIR Mini x B.Duck Limited Edition looks like a Chocobo limited edition. That was a good enough reason for me to buy one. It’s actually my first AYANEO device, and I can certainly see the appeal of them, sitting in the growing pool…
The Two Point series has a lot to answer for. Yes, SEGA’s…
