I hadn't played in a few years and just had an urge to do another run the other night.

Was very pleased to see the dev statement on the loading screen regarding A.I. use. They didn't mince words about it either.

Raph is very outspoken about it, definitely a good team to support imo!

Thank you... heartfelt... dear Artists, Developers, People... for the ineffably magnificent Art... love.. you do... to be inscribed into the infinite marvelous History... to be cherished... and to be actually learned from... as a human from human... since isn't it for what Art stands for...

Such standing for Art will never be forgotten, too, and will only show the crucial belief, the foundation, the purpose of why anyone should ever explore a texture, 3D-model, character, quest, story, Universe... the ideas... a human created to express an experience of their life... and pass it further... to someone else in the infinite Universe out there... to give a solution... to give a purpose... to give hope...

I was very glad to see that as well. Social media (the parts of it that I frequent, like here) are filled with anti-AI takes, but still it feels like a breath of fresh air to see the same sentiment echoed outside of that.
