MODERATORS
I think the "just keep going" was a Tod Howard demand, his ideal game is a LLM that generates endless radiant quests. Generated content has been a hallmark of everything he's touched, and it's always a low-point in that game because he expects it to stand by itself, instead of using it as a tool for the designers to build off of.
Tod doesnt want a game.
He just wants an AI sandbox that he can churn out endlessly, make shittons of money with, with little expense or effort
The worst part is that it's the opposite of effortless, imagine what they could have with 8 years of designing a deep, rich world with compelling stories, 8 years of adding whatever features seem cool. Instead we get an endless expanse with the depth of a puddle.
its a lot of effort to create it, but once its created he just has to feed it prompts and watched the fanboys buy up version after version.
