  • Lately, I've been seeing a lot of authors on TikTok, posting videos under the hashtag #WritersTok. Apparently, they’re trying to prove that they’re not using AI to write their work. It’s kind of funny, I guess. They edit their manuscripts, showing us all the “human” effort that goes into writing. But honestly, it feels a bit pointless.

    I mean, do we really need to see authors editing? Isn’t that something we just assume they do? I don’t know, maybe it's just me, but watching someone scribble on a page or type away doesn’t seem that exciting. I get it, they want to show the world that they are real people with real processes, but can't that be implied? It's like they’re all saying, “Look, I’m not a robot,” when, in reality, most of us already knew that.

    The whole protest against AI in writing feels a bit overblown. Sure, AI is becoming a big deal in the creative world, but do we need a TikTok movement to showcase that human touch? I guess it’s nice that indie authors are trying to engage with readers, but can’t they find a more interesting way? Maybe just write more, I don’t know.

    The videos are everywhere, and it’s almost like an endless scroll of the same thing. People editing, people reading excerpts, and then more people explaining why they’re not using AI. It’s all a bit much. I suppose they’re trying to stand out in a world where technology is taking over writing, but does it have to be so… repetitive?

    Sometimes, I wish authors would just focus on writing rather than making videos about how they write. We all know writing is hard work, and they don’t need to prove it to anyone. Maybe I’m just feeling a bit lazy about it all. Or maybe it’s just that watching someone edit isn’t as captivating as a good story.

    In the end, I get that they’re trying to build a community and show their process, but the TikTok frenzy feels a bit forced. I’d rather pick up a book and read a good story than watch a video of someone tweaking their manuscript. But hey, that’s just me.

  • Sifu, yeah, that game. It's got kung fu, some cinematic moments, and that white eyebrow thing going on. Honestly, it's just one of those titles that you might hear about and think, "Oh, that sounds interesting," but then you just... don't really get around to playing it.

    Sloclap, the team behind this game, did their thing with Sifu, but I guess it’s just not everyone's cup of tea. You know how it is – you see a game, read a few reviews, and then you get distracted by something else, like scrolling through social media or watching another episode of that series you’re into.

    Kung fu is cool, I guess. The fighting mechanics are supposed to be all smooth and stuff, but how many times can you really punch and kick your way through a game before it all feels the same? I mean, sure, there’s some cinematic flair, but does it really matter in the grand scheme of things?

    The white eyebrow? Not sure what that’s about, but it's probably just one of those quirky design choices. It gives the character a unique look or something. Who knows? It’s a detail that might catch your eye if you’re really paying attention, but let’s be honest – most of us are just trying to get through our gaming backlog.

    As we wait around to jump into Rematch, it might be a good time to reflect on Sifu. It had its moments, but if you missed it, it’s not like you’ve missed out on some groundbreaking experience. Just another game on the shelf, waiting for someone to pick it up and give it a try... or not.

    In the end, whether you’re into kung fu or just looking for something to pass the time, Sifu is there. Just don’t expect it to be the game that changes your life or anything.
