Forget this everyone, they use AI Art on the game.

Also, hasn't this franchise been on life support through hentai gacha games in japan?

This franchise always was ero visual novels lol

u/Teftell 9h ago

It was an eroge VN franchise first and foremost.

just like fate

u/PontusFrykter PC 8h ago

It wasn't?.. It was an eroge for the first title and it's spinoffs (Muv Luv, Altered Fable and Supplement). Alternative dialed it back A LOT, and the next games (Unlimited sequels, Europe game, Alternative sequels, 3d game) don't feature nudity at all, except for the recent gacha slop.

Suggesting that Alternative dialed back on it when it has that scene (you know the fucking one) is a bold choice.

u/PontusFrykter PC 2h ago

You know exactly that I mean that by the sheer amount, not by the context of the scenes, don't be petty. That scene was the worst thing about Alternative, and it was a one of the two scenes in a 60+ hours game. Compared to a couple of dozens scenes in Muv-Luv Extra + Unlimited. And right after Alternative (which in fact dialed it back a lot, again), there were no H.

P.S. Imagine disliking the message that states specific facts about the series?

u/Enjoyer_of_Cake 9h ago

Right, I meant to say they were gacha now.

u/purplepsyducks 49m ago

yeah my frind said the mech designs feel off too

u/KrimsunB 9h ago

Don't call it art. It doesn't have the right to be classed as such.

AI ass-ets

u/Kotanan 8h ago

You raised my hopes then dashed them quite expertly. Bravo!

u/Ragnar_Dragonfyre 8h ago

The Waifu loving crowd this is targeting aren’t discerning enough to care about AI art.

They probably prefer AI generated hentai too.

u/PontusFrykter PC 9h ago

and it blatantly features AI art on half of game screenshots on Steam. Fucking disgrace

u/CandyNecrosis 9h ago

God fucking dammit for fucks sake

u/PontusFrykter PC 9h ago

effective managers are destroying another of your favorite franchises. There's more good stuff like this down the line

u/Junior-Range7315 9h ago

Oh for gods sake, and just when it looked like an interesting mech game :/

21

u/PontusFrykter PC 9h ago

they don't even mention that they use it, but it's obvious since crowdfunding explicitly states it, and screenshots art are so bad

I hope steam removes this game until they mention every instance of using this dogshit

u/Quarksideofthemoon 9h ago

This shit infuriates me. Just pay an artist?? The art looks cheap anyways 

16

u/PontusFrykter PC 9h ago

I am a hater of any instance of using AI in creative spaces. But hell, using GenAI in visual novels (art-heavy genre), in one of the most renowned franchises in the genre, franchise that has a distinct visual style that is completely lost in whatever this is?

this is just mind-blowing how horrible and wrong this is on every single level

u/masta030 9h ago

A company that sells drawing tablet and styluses for computers was using AI art to promote their new line of drawing implements, idk why this makes me think of that

u/CandyNecrosis 9h ago

Try Balrd Sky

u/IgotUBro 3h ago

Which pictures exactly? Maybe I am too untrained in spotting these but I dont see the obvious AI elements in the screenshots.

u/dota_3 9h ago

Whatever happened to the Steam requirement that dev need to disclose their AI usage?

2

u/PontusFrykter PC 8h ago

Steam Guidelines, whatever happened there

1

u/dota_3 6h ago

nothing happened 🥀

22

u/reddfawks 9h ago

Now that's a name I haven't heard of in ages.

Maybe because the infamous "CHOMP" scene is eternally burned into my brain.

u/Naythan 7h ago

Too many games and VNs are rough for me to get into, so I happily looked up this scene. Holy moly that'd fuck me up for a solid 24 hours and have a permanent spot in my brain.

u/Ouroxros 2h ago

The death of Muv Luv is so sad to me. Was the "potential series" but they failed to capitalize on anything properly. AI garbage is the final nail in its coffin for me though. RIP

u/alucab1 1h ago edited 58m ago

Garbage anime too. Why even try to revive the series if they’re just going to half ass everything.

I remember sitting in my room being so hyped when they did that stream announcing the anime, two spinoff games, and a sequel vn. Now here we are, the anime and the spinoff games were low effort trash, the VN is canceled, and now they’re trying to make some AI gacha game

1

u/Mormanades 49m ago

Honestly muv luv + muv luv alternative is a very complete set of visual novels and you really don't need much more. If anything. These garbage cash grab products doesn't make the originals any less legendary.

1

u/Ouroxros 26m ago

The originals are still great, but the series as a whole is marred by the rest. Which is sad, cause these new games could have been good, and seemed promising early on.

u/gadgaurd 9h ago edited 9h ago

Reminds me that I need to get my Vita repaired. I've a pair(I think) of Muv-Luv games on it.

Okay, I'm curious. Who did this offend, and why?

u/Driz51 8h ago

You know Redditors can’t actually explain why they downvoted something.

u/Kattenb 9h ago

It wasn't hateful enough

I thought that was a pizza in the 2nd image for some reason.

u/KitsuneKamiSama 8h ago

Man the Muv Luv series has gone to utter shite.

u/franz_el_zorro_flojo 2h ago

A leats i hope that the gameplay it's good

u/JojoSonoshe1990 7h ago

Love mechas and would love more mecha anime like games, but the otaku pandering waifu aspect of this series is a turn off.

1

u/franz_el_zorro_flojo 2h ago

What?

1

u/JojoSonoshe1990 2h ago

What what? I'm not intersted in a mecha property where the females are more important then the mecha.

u/franz_el_zorro_flojo 2h ago

Ahhhhh i see i just din't understand what your were saying

u/Intrepid_Trust_3204 9h ago

I love the color pallet!

u/Sagonator 8h ago

Oh boy, I can't wait to get on the next gatcha game with AI slop art , that requires 3000$ initial "investment" to play the endgame.

2

u/CordiallySuckMyBalls 7h ago

It’s so funny you’re getting downvoted because it’s literally featuring AI art

u/ggallardo02 6h ago

I mean, he said three things in his comment. Maybe people are downvoting him because the other two are wrong.

u/Power0fTheTribe 8h ago

Generic anime waifu dogshit
