Larian admits to AI usage. E33 used AI. KCD2 allegedly used AI. Activision is using AI. Xbox is using AI. GTA 6 definitely is using AI. Indie studios with small teams probably use AI in some capacity. The chances your fav studio uses AI is extremely high, even if they don’t say it
Hell, the chances that VALVE is using AI to help with Deadlock and Half-Life 3 development is probably true
I’m genuinely curious what everyone’s move is going to be moving forward. Are you going to boycott all future games? Stop playing these current games that used it? Quit gaming all together?
I hate genAI as much as the next guy. I’m curious what the future actually will be for gaming as a hobby though
"We've hired creatives for their talent, not for their ability to do what a machine suggests, but they can experiment with these tools to make their lives easier."
Hate to break it to the internet but I'm fairly certain that most if not all studios are doing this in some capacity, they are just not telling you. Larian is at least is giving these tools to their devs as an aid if needed vs straight up replacing them which I can guarantee all upcoming EA / Microsoft / Ubisoft / Activision will be replacing devs. Welcome to 2025.
