    All I want for Christmas is a VR port of this game.

      With ai powered creatures though. Like. This is the best use for Ai in gaming I could think of. Let them learn and ponder their existence, subvert the normal flow of the game, whatever.

      • Nah. Fuck that. Make them do what I fucking say this time, or at least when they don’t it’s because that’s the design and not because it’s a buggy, half cooked mess.

  • As revolutionary as Black & White’s creatures were*, I usually leashed them in a random corner and played the game without them. The game flowed better when you weren’t forced to act as a glorified babysitter.

    * Which has little to go with Molyneux - Richard Evans was an AI** pioneer that Lionhead was insanely lucky to have on the team.

    ** The old definition of AI that could actually learn by doing, not the modern LLMs that coopted the term.
