| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI-assisted artwork covers only a limited selection of icons, emotes, sprays, and a chest icon, with no in-game generation. The rest of the game appears human-made, and the developer has only one release, so there is no volume pattern. Against: Only 3 reviews 5 months after release is a weak signal of limited reach, but the developer has just one game, so it does not indicate mass production. |
