| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states an LLM adapts quest data and rewords existing hand-written dialogue, so AI affects some in-game content. The game is unreleased with no volume-release pattern; the developer has one game and no recent releases. Core writing appears human-authored, with AI as a supporting layer. Against: The game is not yet released, so the actual extent of AI-generated content in the shipped build cannot be verified. |
