Please go ahead and quote where you think it says either of those things.

    Are you really playing the game if the game is just playing itself?

    People enjoy different things, and you don’t need to play something to enjoy it. Your words.

    People love watching sports, they aren’t playing are they?

    Hell even point and click games exist, and those “play themselves” while you merely interact with the screen.

    You were supposed to quote a part that said either of those things, instead of simply asking if it counts as playing the game if the game is doing the playing for you.

    People love watching sports, they aren’t playing are they?

    That's... exactly the point?

    you merely interact with the screen.

    In a point and click game if you are pointing and clicking it sounds like you are playing the game?

    You have an extremely ignorant and narrow view of what “playing” means.

    You just agreed with me in your watching sports example... Another you might agree with is that watching someone's lets play probably doesn't count as playing the game.

    If you’re disabled and can’t actually do those things…?

    Absolutely not, they would be considered playing, your ignorance and ableism for disabled people is showing too much.

    If you’re disabled and can’t actually do those things…?

    If you can't actually do a thing then it sounds like you're saying you aren't doing the thing?

    Absolutely not, they would be considered playing

    Did I understand correctly that in an otherwise identical situation, disabled person who is watching sports is playing sports in your opinion (while also saying they can't play sports), even though an able person watching sports isn't playing them?

    That sounds contradictory.

    If you are disabled and skip certain parts of a game, you are still playing the rest of it.

    This is not the same as watching a lets play or sport. Since you are still actively involved.

    So even with this AI, you are still playing the game.
