Yeah, I made this when I was half asleep lol

I remember detesting ps2-era 3d graphics, commonly thinking I’d just prefer it if was more pixelated (think like on the ds)

I’ve come to really like that look tho

I played it at launch and couldn’t get above 26 fps on lowest settings. That’s with constant stutters btw

I’m not playing it until I can at least hit a consistent 30

Damn, that’s scary

…but why’s this in the shitposting community?

To compare using AI to getting inspired by Picasso is wild

This is less like making a new cake from scratch after disposing of the previous one, and more like making a new cake using the same unwashed cake tin and utensils

No matter what, the AI replacements would have affected how the artists made the final products as, whether they liked it or not, they had a point of reference in the form of the AI texture

People are saying “it’s fine because it was used in the early stages of the game for placeholder art” but that’s kind of missing the point

The problem is that they used AI and didn’t disclose it, as well as releasing the game with AI textures still in it. Yes, these textures were quickly replaced, but it’s still very concerning they weren’t upfront on how they were using it in the game making process

Edit: there isn’t even a disclosure on their steam page
