#InZOI creeps me out. From the first time it was shown InZOI looked like it was a #LifeSim exclusively representing upper-class hyper-polished startup guru types. Feels like a kind of game that Saudi Arabia would publish as a #sportswashing thing?
I'm conflicted about the many #GenAI features. They seem quite cool in a game like this (custom objects, animations, clothing etc from photos), but it adds to the "creepy techbro crypto ad" vibe of the game.
