This is a practical applied course in game theory, that's about thinking strategically in any life situation, personal or professional.
Let's parse that.

- There are a number of mistakes in presentations. - False expectations were set and not all what promised was given. - Lots of repetitions and "we will talk about this later" without continuation - Last section essentially is a repetition of what was before with few simple examples. And looks like not related to the previous sections at all. - The description is misleading and overall the course looks unfinished and abandoned

Yes it was good. I was looking to learn infinite games too. However the course covers only finite games.

The content is pretty informative and interesting. The thing that isn't good about this course is the presentation. I feel like there can be better examples provided in a more concise manner. The most annoying thing is the music in the background. Unfortunately it's going to be stuck in my head for at least a year...
