did the developer intend for that npc/enemy to react that way, or say those things? is that behaviour easily reproducible? is it consistent? etc etc. ... at the end of the day, i want a video game to tell an intentional story. otherwise i might as well just open chatgpt for free

or for QA or something, then that's perfectly fine, but that's after all the creative decisions have been made. swen is very vague about what he means by AI tools (not to mention unprofessional lmao?)

and just as a sidenote, i don't love how reactionary people get about AI in general - it has its uses - but brainstorming of any kind is not one of them. if they wanted to use it as a search engine for finding references,

if the game needs 10 years to cook, then let it take 10 years to cook. we don't need a new game every 3 - 4 years. even if it came out today i wouldn't play it - i got other stuff going on rn
