Damn Sony. You had a golden opportunity to say we are an old school tech company, we are not gonna play these silly games.
But I guess, that’s not how capitalism works. Race to the bottom baby!

Sony doesn’t want to tread on Nintendo’s turf.
Don’t worry, Nintendo will go AI crazy in about a decade once the fad dies.
Yeah, but it’ll actually work and make you fall in love with video games again.
Or it will be relegated to the depths of the Wii U and Virtual Boy
I still think the Wii U failed entirely because of the name. Parents, or even worse grandparents, are not going to pay out new console money for something they think the kids already have. If they looked into it at all many would get the impression it’s just a big expensive controller for the Wii they already have.
Oh well, Wii U died in a ditch so the awesome Switch could feast on its corpse.
Pretty soon, we won’t even have to play a game, it will just be an AI scripted narrative with characters and settings that we sit down, watch, and if we’re super lucky, interact with through scripted prompts.
Mass Effect 3 had a setting that made all the options in conversations for you. Not the same, but similar to your comment.
Wasn’t that a catch up feature for people who never played through the choices in ME1&2?
Sorry for the Reddit link, but this is the closest I could find on it with a quick search!
I thought it was an odd decision in such a successful franchise known for its choices.
Some people get decision paralysis or FOMO so bad they can’t enjoy the game. I can be pretty bad in a similar way. I hardly ever finish a game even if I love it because I’m gonna do every side quest before I do the main quest and I just never get around to it.
