> Gamers hate that shit.
Unless AI is used for code (which it is, surely, almost everywhere), then Gamers don't give a damn. Also, Larian didn't use it for concept art, they used it to generate the first mood board to give to the concept artist as a guideline. And then there is Ark Raiders, who uses AI for all their VO, and that game is a massive hit.
This is just a breathless bubble, the wider gaming audience couldn't give two shits if studios use AI or not.
> they used it to generate the first mood board
Btw there was an update on this, larian did an AMA on reddit because of the backlash because the "just moodboard" excuse didn't satisfy many, they are now saying they won't use ai for anything at all:
> We already said this doesn’t mean the actual concept art is generated by AI but we understand it created confusion. So, to ensure there is no room for doubt, we’ve decided to refrain from using genAI tools during concept art development. That way there can be no discussion about the origin of the art.
