Download now before the cease and desist hits! The more people who have it, the more likely it will live on the internet forever.

The project doesn't use generative AI, and he notes: "We wanted to wait until the end of the year to release, but sadly due to how powerful AI is becoming, it became clear to us that in order to avoid all of our hard work being for nothing, it was now or never."

I wonder what he means by that. Is there a rival team using AI also working on this?

It would be trivial to pop a couple hundred bucks into an AI and get a garbage translation for the entire game, along with a codebase buggification. It sucks, but they wanted to beat the modern iteration of script kiddies to the market.

The AI version of whatever the fuck a "Chinese Exclusive Borderlands MMO" is.. well that sounds like a wet nightmare you'd have after overdosing on cough syrup at a Russell Brand sleepover featuring Jared Leto on vocals.
