Hit and Stand Blackjack

[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_slop][b]Warning: AI Slop[/b][/url] This game is partially or completely made with talentless, soulless AI generated content.[/quote] "Hit and Stand Blackjack" is a bunch of disgusting, insulting AI Slop dropped on a basic Unity blackjack template. There's nothing nice about this at all, use of AI slop is highly offensive. The only thing I'm surprised about is the lack of a price tag, usually shovelware devs are pretty keen to try get your money for AI slop. What do you do in the game? Look at AI slop and a basic Unity blackjack game blueprint, then uninstall, and write to GabeN to see if we can get a ban on disgusting AI slop on Steam. As mentioned, this features really godawful, "wrong" looking AI slop instead of genuinely and sincerely created game assets. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating real game assets or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks bad because of that decision. AI slop sticks out like a sore thumb... and it comes across as insulting. There's also the old adage that those who lack the budget and talent to make their own game assets usually lack the budget and talent to do the rest of the job of game development properly, too, and that's glaringly obvious here. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. This is "free" enough (not every "free" game in the "free" section is truly free, there's usually some hidden price tag), at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good, and the cost of a game is more than just financial, your time is valuable too. In terms of public reception, this failed. There's over 130 million unique gamers visiting Steam every month. SteamDB showed the game peaked at [b]only 6 concurrent players[/b]... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? What's the verdict? I think you should give this one a miss. Although it's free, your time and storage are valuable resources, and the market is filled with superior options. The use of AI slop is a direct insult to gamers and real, ethical content creators and artists everywhere. [quote][url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/reviews]Developer Response![/url][/quote]The developer has weighed in to inform everyone they didn't read the [url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/reviews]Developer Usage Rules[/url] for Steam "partners", or they deliberately ignored the part where Valve says: [quote]Though it may be tempting, not every review needs to be responded to. A developer response will frequently draw more attention than the original statement, potentially turning a small issue into a much larger community discussion. It's also not a good idea to use this feature to refute customer opinions. Your direct attention can be seen as validation or a defensive attempt to silence your customers.[/quote] The developer sees no problem with the use of disgusting AI Slop to cover his failure and inadequacy, offending everyone with his arrogance with crappy prompts and GPT doing all the work for him so he can tell his imaginary girlfriend that he really made all that slop. The developer makes the spurious claim that this blackjack game is not different to the handful of identical ready to use game blueprints for Unity, which means, if you can believe this AI slop pushing insult to gamers everywhere, he spent a lot of time doing something that had already been done, which is incompetence of the highest order... Valve desperately needs quality control to rid the store of arrogant, incompetent AI slop pushers like this. I'm glad to see this AI slop garbage was absolutely rejected by all gamers everywhere. Nothing in the developers pointless breach of Valve guidelines changes any of the objective facts of my review. My review stands unaltered. I cannot recommend this disgusting AI slop to anyone.
