One of the biggest myths in gamedev is the idea that a single big content creator can open the floodgates on an undiscovered title. Streamers are subject to the same forces of interest as players. And when they do cover something, it doesn't move the needle as much as the layman thinks it does.

Does anyone know a word to describe an open-world game which is only open up to the areas you've unlocked? Like a lot of JRPGs? Like you can go anywhere you've been. But getting to new areas is gated behind story progress?

Lol I googled "How does Eastshade end?" and google's AI summary gave me this goofy answer. What is the point of AI help when it's (usually not even fully) correct 80% of the time but 20% of the time so spectacularly wrong it's comical?
