In light of Larian doubling down on "all the big game companies use gen-ai whether you like it or not, so sit down, shut up and buy our slop", I'd like to point out that this makes me an INCREDIBLY easy mark for companies that choose to, y'know, not do that.

i understand that these corporations are beloved by many, but as soon as you start defending their use of AI, even if it's "a little bit", i need you to understand that you are being used as a corporate tool to normalize AI. reject it with all your might. corporations arent your friend.

You’re about to learn “You can’t put back it in the bottle” works multiple ways, Swen.
Larian Studios, developer of Baldur's Gate 3 and the just-announced Divinity, is apparently using generative AI behind the scenes.
The backlash has been swift and loud, and now Larian founder and game director Swen Vincke has responded to clarify his remarks. https://bit.ly/4qcNbSz

If you make a billion dollars — or $500 million or even $100 million dollars — and you keep trying to make more, then there is something seriously wrong with you. It's a mental illness akin to hoarding or drug addiction.
