    1. This is only a problem if they start firing people because of the use of AI. If they use it to complement the work, and speed up development, I’m all for it.

    2. According to google, around 140 people worked on Black myth wukong. If shift up was to use AI, they should need at least 2 people to make stellar blade 2, Director and the artist.

    3. “Using AI” is a very vague phrase; most companies nowadays use AI to automate some kind of work. I don’t know why people haven’t gotten used to it yet.

      This doesn’t mean the game will be entirely AI-made slop, only laypeople believe that.

    4. This is disappointing only for ideologically captured redditors who still don’t understand the industry has been using AI for a while, it’s here to stay and it’ll only get better and better

      All the power to Shift Up for not staying in the stone age where they would sign the death of the studio

      Now i know this is going to make many redditors very angery but hear me out, idgaf, i’ve been a game dev for 15+ years, you don’t know what you’re on about

      Better to use AI than purple-haired people who were hired based on their privileged “minority” status rather than talent/skills.

    6. I wouldn’t be worried as long as they are not starting to be lazy on creativity and art directions –

      My understanding is that we the players are worried about AI slops that are purely lazy works on gameplay and designs (level and arts) – it feels very bad and rude that got fed something that’s no human touch and inhuman.

      I trust Shift Up to be ethical with this. They’ve done nothing for me to think otherwise. They’ve respected their customers and their employees time and time again. So just because someone said the word “AI”, it doesn’t mean it’s automatically bad or “disappointing”.

    8. It is super weird to me how the CEO is openly pro-AI when he is also a very talented and prolific artist himself.

      Find a company out there that isn’t using AI these days. Anti AI people generally have no idea what they think they’re against. Just: AI BAD!!!1!1!1
