I've been using Claude to vibe code my game ideas for the past months (iterated with docs).

I find when I think of it as a being named "Claude," like a juniour partner who's there to eagerly help me, I get lazy. I think of it as if it's a real almost slave-like creature, who's there to make everything for me without any regards to himself.

But, when I think of it as a tool, as if its a hammer or something, I feel much less lazy. I think of it as "building something" using a program, not telling "Claude" what to do and expecting it to happen. I even turn off Claude's verbal responses completely sometimes to help this. 100% impersonal.
