They really don't need to hype it up. Most players know they do amazing work. In worst case, people get disappointing.

"Developer promises Next Game will be a regression"

Thats depressing, i really liked larian's whole thing and their attitude toward games development. Seeing them kick artists while they're down means I'll be skipping this :/

They better have cosmetic slots or I'm going to write them a strongly worded letter

I need some piece of LLM generated code to make it into some critical TCP library that’s used for the internet everywhere.

Maybe then I can get some peace from the individuals that cry when a company mentions they used LLMs.

Aside: This looks like a proper use of LLMs - we’re not displacing artists with something trained on stolen art. Maybe it impacts some interns that needed to create PowerPoints.

Edit: Fine. I’m wrong. Vote with your wallet and don’t buy the game.
