For those wondering why this is interesting, see the discussions.

Seems that the game is struggling with the costs of running it, since every user creates AI token costs.

Ok it'll be me to say this here: the core idea is great, but the "woman can't drive" trope is really off-putting, even if that wasn't the intention. The characters could have been anyone in any setting, yet they chose a young woman and an older brother teaching her.

It is an example of the trope that women can't drive when when a woman who has learned to drive is shown to demonstrate poor driving skills.

A woman learning to drive because she literally does not know how is not an example of that trope, that is being a human.

Why would anyone jump to that trope? This is a girl, that is LEARNING to drive of course she doesn't know how to do it yet

Only thing I found off-putting was this text: "along with an honest update".

Why is 'honest' in so much writing and speech? Does anyone think what follows is more trustworthy as a consequence?

It’s a claudism.

Every statement seems to need a disclaimer of honesty these days, usually in the form of "ngl".

The bond between an older brother and younger sister is one of the most beautiful things on the planet. No need to see a natural thing like that.

The bond between any siblings is a beautiful thing. Gender doesn't matter.

Bond between father and son is special, but sweet between a father and daughter in a way that is unique to that particular set.
