CEOs changed the game completely after one of them played spiderman 2.
warning: the story might change the way you think how some developers are treated across the world.
for a full documentary, see this YouTube video(in German, but you can turn on the subtitles)
I don't know if the game is the best example of busineses making top-down design decisions, since that game was an obvious scam from the start.
you're right. perhaps a better example would be YouTube suggesting videos by colour?
I never saw that, that's legitimately funny. I'd love to be in the room when that feature was designed, and the reaction of the developer it was handed too.
Not sure why? Just because you don't use or understand a feature, it does not mean nobody else wants it? Or do you have more insight into that?
I don't. but adding a "feature"(I call it bloat) that doesn't even work properly instead of, say, making search better might be a more sensible thing.
but as a commentor suspects, they might've added this because of black history month
