I'm not going to dismiss the author's comments on the game but I do feel it's reading a lot into what is just a game. A game that I've sunk almost 2000 hours into and have only played with enemies/pollution on for <30hrs. They weren't fun mechanics since, as the author points out, there are no options but to fight and pollute. I've even tried to play with mods that let you clean the air but they don't work well even once I've gone full-solar. I'm willing to have my beliefs challenged but I'm not grasping how this game is inherently bad or promoting bad/harmful ideas. I don't find the pollution or alien aspects of the game well thought out but thankfully I can turn them off and just play a factory-builder game.
As for the opening quote. I've seen the YT video of these comments being made and I'm struggling to understand the line being drawn between a person with a disability and AI/ML models trying to move. I'm not saying it's wrong but I just don't understand. If someone can summarize it better I would really like to better grasp what Hayao Miyazaki means by this.
