I’m not going to uninstall or demand a refund, but I fully support the Indie Game Awards decision on this and will not refer to CO:E33 as a winner of any of the Indie Game Awards. I will still call it IMO the best JRPG in many years, but I thought that before it started receiving awards.
I hope this event serves to scare game studios of all sizes from the mere appearance of using AI at ANY scale or part of the process. Hell, I hope it causes the whole damn bubble to burst, but it’s just not that important.
Jury nullification exists because juries can aquit for any reason. They are encouraged to acquit based on facts and “shadow of a doubt” (criminal) or “preponderance of evidence” (civil). But, they can also acquit for other reasons, and if they are doing it because the law, or it’s application in this case, is unjust, that is jury nullification (of the law).
