If AI (stable diffusion) revolution didn't happen, this would probably be long forgotten at this point.
The only thing keeping it alive at this point is AI generated fan art, and from the looks of it it is not gonna change anytime soon from DC side of things.
But with current pace of AI development, we will soon get capability to generate whole point and click storyline with text, audio, and images faster than DC can redraw a single boob from 4:3 to 16:9.
Given all this. DC job at this point should be:
1. upscale current assets, for high resolution AI training
2. Develop new characters and their arcs stories.
3. Work on world building, locations, scenes.
The rest is gonna be generated by people using AI, and I mean interactions between characters based on their characteristics and arcs in various game locations.
And at this point the fact that DC isn't using AI to get productivity boost does not makes any sense.
