Sound familiar?
AI NPCs are the next big player expectation
Players are starting to expect NPCs that can hold conversations and react dynamically. The technology is emerging but the design patterns aren't settled.
AI art and content generation are contentious
AI-generated game assets save production time but face community backlash. You need to navigate the technical capability and the cultural sensitivity.
Development pipelines are being AI-augmented
AI-assisted level design, testing, balancing, and QA are becoming viable. Understanding what's ready for production vs. what's experimental matters.
