Saber Interactive Denies Replacing Lead Writer With ChatGPT, CEO Responds to Accusations (thisweekinvideogames.com)

From the Saber Interactive CEO:

“Stella who? I had to ask Claude because I have never spoken to her or seen her. We have already said we are using AI for certain parts of the game and will update the Steam page once we have finalized the feature set.

“Let me clarify that the entire story script, were it to win an award, would go to someone who can walk up on stage and receive it. It was always our intention to reveal this until Stella violated her confidentiality clause and revealed this before we were ready.

“We look at our use of AI in this particular game, which will be a lower priced title, as a plus for consumers,” he said.

“As far as Stella is concerned, she was replaced by someone more talented and terminated for a variety of reasons a few months later. From what I can gather she enjoys controversy even more than I do. I would frankly in retrospect have been happy to replace her with AI. At least we would be dealing with someone programmed to be honest.”

Godfuckingdammit. They're the ones making the Hellraiser game coming out in October and now I'm gonna have to miss out on principle.

This is fucking bullshit.

No.... Dude what... I'm literally rewatching Hellraiser right now and re reading all the books to get ready for it.

I'm just gonna pirate it then. But that kills me because Jericho did so bad I was going to buy this on PC and it was going to be the last disc I ever bought for PS5.

Man... fuck.

Thanks for having principles

I've struck the KOTOR remake off my wishlist, and I was thinking of buying Road Redemption and now absolutely will not. It's a shame, but I'm not giving them a cent.

What's the story with KOTOR?

[–] egrets@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

It's also in the hands of Saber Interactive.

[–] potustheplant@feddit.nl 0 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Pirate it.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I feel like knowing that there's slop in the game would just ruin the experience.

[–] nocturne@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 weeks ago

Same. I have really been looking forward to the game, but now I absolutely will pass on it.
