A lot of people don't seem to grasp what the real issue here is.
It's not about the use of gen-AI. It's about how it's being used.
1 - The game's art direction, environments and setting are vastly inspired by Chinese aesthetics.
2- China is the biggest market in the world for the PC version of Stellar Blade.
3 - Historically, China and South Korea don't get along very well (look it up if you care).
And yet, knowing all this, Shift Up decided to reveal the sequel to Stellar Blade with a trailer that includes AI-made "pretend-Chinese" plastered all over it.
For a Chinese reader, or even someone superficially familiar with the writing (like me), the issue is glaringly obvious when watching the trailer!
If you still don't get it, imagine a French studio making a game inspired by Italy, and then filling it up with text that says "Pasta pasta" everywhere, but using deformed letters that aren't actually letters. And that still wouldn't be as careless and bad as what has been done in Blood Rain!
It shows a tremendous lack of care, touch, professionalism, supervision and sensibility. Both from an artistic, and commercial perspective.
Hope this helps....
