This is the most absolutely buck wild and inefficient version of this idea I've ever seen, ever. Director AI's have existed over a decade, and have already been used to solve problems exactly like these. If I was Joel and was woken up at 2am to go drop a couple more bugs on Leedle III I'd tell my entire management team to eat shit and do it themselves. What the fuck. Who came up with this? This is half baked as hell

No this is a reasonable approach. Arrowhead are a a rather small company of around 100 people and automating things is easier said than done. They also never anticipated the game to be as successful as it is so at the time it probably wasn't high on the priority list. Now they pay Joel overtime (I hope) and can think about how to implement an automated script to adjust the game.
