i don't disagree with any of this.

but we need more.

we need animation, post processing, ui/ux, netcode(multiplayer), level design, particle system, etc....

we're within a decade or even 5 years of games where ai does the heavy lifting in a few categories.

we're at least a decade from an ai game ENGINE where text-developsAnEntireGame

edit: for context im thinking AAA title/popular indie quality games. i'm sure we're close to 2D asteroid-esk ai text-game like only few years
