I'm worried about voice actors losing work.
It's a tool – depends on how developers use it.
I tried a game with AI NPCs and the conversations felt hollow.
That's a fair point about voice actors.
Right now it's just a gimmick, but in 5 years it could be standard.
If it leads to more dynamic worlds, I'm all for it.
That's a fair point about voice actors.
Dynamic worlds would be incredible if done right.
Imagine a Skyrim where every NPC remembers your actions – that's the dream.
I hadn't considered the ethical side – thanks for bringing that up.
