Jordan Minor, author of the upcoming book Video Game of the Year (featuring both Patrick and Austin!), joins the rest of the Remap Radio crew to discuss Steam trying to grapple with AI art, and what it means to create in a world of creation-focused algorithms. Elsewhere, we chat about Jordan plotting video game history through his book, Patrick’s played (and enjoyed!) the Pikmin 4 demo, Ren’s dumping many more CRPG hours into Divinity: Original Sin 2 and Tyranny, while Jordan wonders what Pokémon can learn from Cassette Beasts. In The Question Bucket, we consider the nature of nostalgia and whether video game leveling systems make any sense.
