Unless AI model collapse happens.

@Forestofenchantment I'm glad that shitty LARP party died.
@eriner sure it is, it’s very capitalist for the bottom 90% and a socialist security state for the top 10%.
@eriner — unless you add the adjective “crony”. ;D
Definitely not a free market though!
Sometimes, when you are coming up with scenarios for fiction, you have to think if the plot will go well in our current climate.
For example, I have a Strangereal (Ace Combat)-like fictional universe. In it, I have an idea for a 3-way war that happens in said universe. Basically, an island territory is allowed to secede from its host nation, and becomes a quasi-libertarian nation, but this creates opposition from both far-left and far-right factions. In total, there are 3 factions:
* The newly created nation
* A far-left, post-colonial anarchist liberation front comprised of some of the indigenous population along with allies.
* Some far-right, imperial Japan-like country who takes it as an opportunity to conquer the newly independent territory.
All three factions are at war with each other. In the game you are able to pick which faction you are on. The only problem is that I feel like such a scenario would be controversial. I just thought a 3-way conflict would be interesting and this is the first scenario that came to my mind.
Do you think this is fine? I have other stories for this setting, including an American-like country going to war with a country that is like a Modernized Roman Empire.
Internet shutdowns, cybercrime laws, age verification, and repression of speech in times of conflict—just a few of the threats to free expression we documented in 2024. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2024/12/restrictions-free-expression-and-access-information-times-change-2024-review

>the problem is if you want to make a game you're going to attract "idea guys" who want to leech off you.
That along with the one person who wastes all of your crowdfunding on booze and does no actual work.
