Yeah, i'm done
I'm quitting all of Hoyoverse's games. I have been playing Genshin for 5 years, HSR for 3, and ZZZ since nearly launch. But I quit.
I have been thinking of doing so for a while, at least in Genshin. The situation there is dire in many ways. But one thing pulled the trigger for me, and I hope it will for many other.
Hoyoverse announced they will be investing roughly 14,6 billion dollars in AI in future years for more interactive NPCs and better background for their current and new games.
They are planning to, in 2030, create a new VR with an AI self sufficient to operate and guide the player by itself. Saying that, if it fails, it would still be "A firework show.", and I do not want to be a part of that.
I am strictly against AI, it truly disgusts me. I'm surprised so few people heard about it, or are talking about it. So i came by to share the news.
I won't lie, I truly hope this projects fails, for many reasons. But alas, it would be too long of an explanation if I did went on for each one of them.
It has been a pleasure (believe me or not) participating in these communities and these games, I won't leave said communities, not immediately, at least.
But I've already uninstalled the games, and plan on doing so with Genshin after the Snehznaya update (if they start implementing AI before or during I'll leave it in a second).
It will be hard for me to untangle myself from these games, most of my interests, hobbies, and people I follow are a direct part of it, but I'll try to handle it.
I still appreciate all of the love put into these games over the years from the fandom and devs, although i honestly believe that has faded a bit overtime. I hope this finds the people that it should, the ones unaware or seeking comfort as well.
