Thats why I'm so conflicted about it, because its pretty difficult to find out whether its the level of Ubisoft corporate greed, asset flipping based on whats currently cool, and then just abandoning it for other new thing, or just an indie studio that's trying to do their best, but discovered mid-development an amazing idea that's way better than what they have been working on so far.

There's a lot of red flags, which I'm concerned about, but I also really like what they came up with and hope that it's not just a cash grab based solely on current grey zone in copyright infringement, that's abusing generative AI for that effect. I don't blame them for benign excited about generative AI, but in this situation and given their history, its unfortunately definitely a red flag.
