Summary

Should Nintendo be able to stop a potentially offensive AI parody of Mario depicting real-life war scenarios? Would you invest in the future of gaming being Streaming? Does Every Major IP Need a TCG? If you run Resident Evil, Assassin's Creed, or Forza, is launching a physical collectible counterpart a green flag or a red flag? After 10 years, No Man's Sky players have explored less than 1% of its planets - is the game too big? Should the fan decompilation of games be regarded as preservation or piracy?
