I understand what you're saying. I had the same response, but after seeing the animation I was very surprised by them.
I see it as an improvement, but was not expecting that.
Look, I know when AI is used properly it can turn out some real good animation. Problem is to get that real good result you need to spend a lot of time, same amount of time can give daz render that these devs are already good at.
I don't get why the devs who actually have nailed the rendered CG so good go for shortcuts to get half assed CG.
Meanwhile the game which do have bad CG(for instance game with SIMS CG) insist to carry on CG from 2001.
Strong Desire by bluink had absolutely gorgeous models and renders, this game had such great renders and animations.
These game didn't need AI, CG was already very good, so why? Who asks for it??
Is it about needing less effort posing and creating scenes in DAZ like softwares?
AI renders gonna reduce development time, Is that it?
But if that is so how will devs make money?
Let's be real devs make more money the longer the development goes,So how are Faster AI Render is even in favour of Devs?
Ain't they gonna lose money if game gets developed in 3 years as suppose to 5-6 years?
I don't know man, I just don't get it.
