To me, both Outer Wilds and The Witness were absolutlely savourable, and I made a point of never looking up anything on the Internet while playing these games. That would rob me of…

OP likely meant that a Midjourney-level AI can easily generate all the card art. Obviously, current AIs cannot generate game rulesets because the game feel is an internal phenomeno…
