Intriguing title that I'll likely visit when it goes on sale. Great read!

GenAI or not, it's an 11-bit game, and hence it's a MUST PLAY for me!

People have very differing takes on this one. But for what its worth, I enjoyed my 10 hours with the game.

Haven’t followed this too closely. Was it actually just some placeholder text that got left in a terminal somewhere? Or did it appear in multiple places?

Largely in localisation and background text assets.

Then for the PR response, they explained there was a lot more use of it than people realised, but didn’t address why they didn’t flag it in the first place? They were transparent in the wrong way.

It will likely become an example within the industry for disclosing all AI use. Gamers are passionate enough to sniff it out and call it out on socials when they find it.

It’s an interesting one. As years go by I genuinely wonder how public opinion on this will shift. Even among my friends, there’s those who care deeply and others who just don’t.
