Sad to say that it's better viewing than almost all free-to-air TV in Australia.
Someone should extend this to script a series of characters in various games and automate Twitch production to make a living.
- Amorymeltzer 11y agoHonestly, why not though? Write a sufficient enough AI, get your camera angles right, and slow down the decision tree with some dialogue, and you've essentially got a movie. Not saying it'll be grand, but it certainly won't be the worst thing produced in a given year; probably guaranteed to be the best for a given cost.
- prawn 11y agoFurther on that, you could probably create a batshit-insane zoo of some sort which combined a variety of animals in a fixed environment. Make it an Apple TV app/channel. In a physical zoo experience, the animals are caged and often just hide out the day. In the batshit-insane zoo, they'd be entertaining everyone all the time without any animal welfare issues. In can foresee a time where the majority of people (e.g., not purists or those with money to travel) are more regularly entertained by virtual animals than the real thing. Take GTA V, add Godzilla and let the public watch what happens.
- keyle 11y agoThat's exactly what I said! More entertaining than any Aussie TV :)
- ghrifter 11y agoDidnt the guy that made the "Twitch Plays Pokemon" do this? He probably made an absolute killing. That or amazon did for sure (owns Twitch)

- atroyn 11y agoSalty Bet does something very similar to that. When there's no major e-sports matches going on, various automated fighting game characters (including custom community submitted characters) are pitted against one another in fights, which are streamed live. The audience places bets.
