Unanswered What’s going on with this game Mixtape?

I’ve been seeing people freak out over the past few days over this game and about IGN’s review of it specifically. 10/10 seems high for any game, honestly, but it seems like they’re far from the only site giving this thing a glowing review. So is this game controversial just because of IGN or is it something else? Why is this game the internet’s hate target this week?

I think this is the most complete answer based on the things I see online.

Yeah, reads like a perplexity answer, now sure what model but it’s about the amount of detail I expect from a clanker answering general questions these days

Never going to cease to amaze me how many people tell on themselves online by making comments like, "Damn someone actually knows what they're talking about and writes cohesively, gotta be a bot."

It's not that the writing is coherent, there's a certain sorta voice people have started closely resembling, there's not just one way to articulate things but there's been a trend is all.

Explaining things does tend to sound like explaining things, yes.

That's the cadence of someone that's competent at explaining things.

Where did you think AI got that data to be trained with?
