What the developer says
Our game uses AI in a limited, supportive capacity. Specifically, AI occasionally assists in generating generic background elements or provides base inspiration through photobashing, which our artists then extensively modify. All AI-generated content is subject to significant human alteration to meet our artistic standards, ensure alignment with our creative vision, and faithfully represent the Wheel of Time canon. The primary game assets, including nearly all in-game elements, are fully developed in 3D using traditional modeling techniques. AI, at present, does not meet our quality standards for these core assets. Instead, AI serves as a creative tool for pre-rendered 2D art pieces, which are heavily customized by our team. Our game does not use AI for any live generation or dynamic content during gameplay. All portrayals of familiar characters, places, and items from The Wheel of Time books are created by Aether Games under full authorization and license.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI is used only for generic backgrounds and base inspiration for 2D art, with heavy human reworking. Core in-game assets are described as traditionally modeled 3D. Developer has one release and no high-volume pattern, so effort risk is low. Against: The disclosure is self-reported and vague about how much 2D art is AI-influenced; a curator also flags AI images, though without specific evidence. |
