Comment on Larian publishing director says "marketing's dead" because players don't want to be "bamboozled," and "we learned that with Baldur's Gate 3"

Cities Skylines 2 went the opposite direction.

Here’s hoping lessons are learned. Entire generations have learned to be deeply skeptical even with trusted brands.

And, yes, I hope that skepticism and relationship based, authentic(?) word of mouth brings sanity for a while.

Until businesses try to optimize that into oblivion too. We gotta put guard rails in place.
