Alright, who's the joker trying to charge $100 on Steam for an almost entirely AI-generated game?
The visual novel Kryonull has drawn criticism on Steam for its $100 price tag, especially since a majority of its assets, including images and voices, were generated using AI. While the script is reportedly original, the developer NovelkaGames' use of AI for assets and the high price have led to backlash. The game is available in English and Russian, with its price in rubles still converting to a significant US dollar amount.
