They released their writing for public consumption and ChatGPT consumed it. That seems like the long and short of it to me.
I'm not the greatest advocate of copyright law, but surely that sort of use needs to be licensed, and I doubt NYT released their stuff under MIT-0 or something.

Holy shit, $40? And no upgrade for existing owners? This had better be MASSIVE.
Why do that when I can pay $250 for an 18-inch plastic statue and 40-page art book to go along with my DLC?

That's an EA\Ubi-level cash grab. Shame on you, Microsoft!

Now, this might blow your mind, but maybe, just MAYBE, they hear it's popular and fun by word of mouth because it is. I know, radical concept.

From my position I've not played such an overrated game in years. I gave up after a while in the first underdark adventure (figuring there are likely more than that). The entire presentation felt like I was watching a bunch of normal people roleplay the parts. I can totally understand how that might be absolutely perfect, because that's absolutely what D&D is, but I never felt transported to another world, I disliked most of my party, and the sexuality was absurdly front and center to the point of being annoying. Before I had reached the Druid settlement at the beginning, half my party expressed their interest in sleeping with me. It wasn't too much longer after that point that every single character was telling me I was the most amazing person they'd ever met, and all of them wanted to sleep with me. I don't like describing things as pathetic but it truly felt like it was. It pleases me so many people are enjoying the game, and giving life to a genre I grew up with, but I can not stand BG3 personally.
No offense to those loving it. I just thought I'd share my counter-experience.

Oh boy, another platform exclusive. Yay, Epic.

Hear, hear. Enshittification isn't something that happens over time like meat going bad. It's a plan to draw people in (high appeal, negative profits), draw businesses to the people (moderate appeal, minor profit), and then, when both are so locked in that they can't leave, shift the entire service from drawing customers to milking them (low appeal, high profits.)
