Clair Obscur won multiple awards but used generative AI art as placeholders during production.

The Indie Game Awards revoked Clair Obscur’s Debut and Game of the Year after the AI disclosure.

IGAs reassigned the awards (Blue Prince, Sorry We’re Closed) and reignited debate on gen-AI use.

The rules are the rules

This has the same validity as an argument as "I was just following orders" or "I am just doing my job" or "I told you I would hit you in five seconds, so you did know" same reasoning behind teachers that throw students out for being 5 minutes late

    Ok, reality check: we are talking about video game awards. Calm down.

    That doesn't change the claim. Following the rules for the sake of following the rules instead of understanding why they are there is a defining trait of this sheep behavior.

    My guy, the whole "I'm just following orders" is about people harming others because they were ordered to do so, it's not about acting as a group in general ffs.

    Yeah that's the worst case scenario. But the behavior is bad in general

    You won today's most contrarian person award. The prize is food served by someone who hasn't washed their hands because they want you to have a strong immune system. To claim your reward please cross the nearest freeway on foot.

    If you don't enforce rules then you don't have rules. You should have learned that dealing with all those teachers who threw you out for being late in school.

    There's nothing to learn from teachers with fragile ego

    Sounds like an excuse for bad behavior to me.

    Exactly what a teacher with fragile ego would say

    Learn to shut up and be obedient? Hopefully never

    Not to be so obtuse and confrontational, lest you miss an opportunity to learn from another person. I'm sure by now you live a mostly lonely life though, so what's the point?

    Being bristly over the internet has pretty much zero risk compared to real life though so might as well dig into the hostility, right?

    Just to be clear I am not the one that started the hostility. You did it with your passive-agressive "you should have learned from the teachers".

    And no I am not lonely and have good friends, they just don't fall into the authoritative narrative.

    Considering teachers are right just because they are teachers is the kind of injustice I will continue fighting even if you consider it worthless.
