It's interesting to me how people say "someone did this before it was cheap!" as if it's a slight. I mean, yes, it's much more impressive when it was expensive, but it's good that things are cheaper.

Interestingly enough the “before it was cheap” version was distributed for free when this one is for sale for half the price of the game this is supposed to run on.

Denmark did it 10 years ago with existing open source tools and open data.

This reuses the same open source tools, the same open data, and has the gall to put up a slop website and ask for 15CHF (or worse, 48) to pay for a Claude subscription that's doing it all behind.

Doing something and charging money for it is how a lot of things that cost money got started.

Yeah but that's different from "LLM puffery".

		I think the point that might've been lost here is that Art (and this is Art) is not supposed to be about the destination but about the journey. The whole magic of someone doing this is someone doing this. No one did this. And there is no utility in it either. No one needs a 1:1 scale Minecraft map of Switzerland for anything. So the whole thing is just an empty husk of an idea implemented in a way that shows lack of understanding why this niche of content existed in the first place.
