Production signals

Facts about who made the game and how players received it. They don't depend on AI, and they help tell a carefully made game that used some AI apart from mass-produced ones.

What the developer says

Some content in the game was made with the help of generative AI tools. Many character voices, book readings and help narration use AI text-to-speech voices. Translations into German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese and Chinese were produced with AI translation tools. Some interface art, skill icons, achievement icons, a few decorations and some upscaled textures were made with AI image tools. Some newer dialogue, item text and patch notes were drafted with AI writing tools and edited by our team. The in-game Oracle answers player questions with an AI language model that only answers from our own knowledge base of game information. Players can have short catchphrases and in-game books read aloud by AI text-to-speech voices, and community add-on descriptions are drafted by AI. Every piece of player-written text is checked by an AI moderation model before anything is generated, and it is refused if it fails the check. Lengths and usage are capped, staff review voiced content and approve every add-on listing, and abusive accounts can be banned. Public chat and character names are also screened by AI moderation.

Major AI · solid production, high confidence
Reasoning

The disclosure lists AI covering voice, translation, interface art, icons, textures, and some writing, which spans several major asset types. The game has a long development history since 2018 with thousands of reviews, showing sustained production effort rather than volume releases. The developer released no games in the last 12 months, so mass-production signals are absent.

Against: The disclosure states AI content is edited and reviewed by staff, and the game has a long post-launch history with 3211 reviews, indicating substantial human development.
