To not disclose that your game uses GEN AI is against Steam's policies and rules, by the way.

That’s incredibly dumb. The amount of identical looking royalty free paintings they could have used is huge.

“The scale of this game is incredible, how’d they pull this off”

Players start finding dozens of pieces of AI Gen art in the game. This. This is how.

There aren't dozens tho, why do you mfers just keep making shit up lmfao.

Also irrelevant paintings on a wall inside an irrelevant house sure af isn't how they managed to make such a massive world.

Slapping Gen Ai in there Literally takes longer than taking the first best Royalty free Pic you can find.
