I know it's five days old and made heavy use of AI. My comment is that before hearing about it, it's deeply cynical to expect it to be AI driven.
while* hearing about it. The only introduction is a bulleted list of what the project is and isn't that Liam copy–pasted from their docs. Nothing about any anticipation; nothing about how long it had been in the works; nothing about the authors; no link to a release blog or previous story discussing it in any way; nothing about finally being in a playable state/anything related to the dev cycle. Liam talked about it like it popped into existence (true) and they were just hearing about it for the first time (true).
Combined with what I said above, it's just basic media literacy that I'm reading about a dead-end throwaway project.
I gave it a shot by reading the article, which was more than it deserved.
Think we just have a different take on the meaning of 'expect' is all.
"... appears to work on Linux with Proton 11 as captured in my screenshot above"
heh
The emphasis in that point was the word "finally", not "playable state". As in "it's finally working after x amount of time" like you'd expect with a project that takes any appreciable time to get working.
