I don't like to be doom'n'gloom here on AI and Games. But when I get to thinking about the future of microtransactions and lootboxes in AAA games, I'm not seeing any positive outcomes, especially when AI becomes even more involved than it already is.

Design Dive is the series on AI and Games where I explore how artificial intelligence impacts game design and vice versa.
