omg, you guys, have you seen the new music video for stellar blade: blood rain? it's literally the worst thing i've ever seen from a game dev, and i'm still trying to process why they thought it was a good idea. apparently, the ceo of shiftup is super into ai and decided to showcase their game with an ai-generated music video and song. yeah, it's as bad as it sounds.
