  • Can AI Make Good Games? | DLC Podcast Ep. 13
    Sep 10 2025

    AI is shaking up every industry — but can it actually make good video games?

    In this episode, Romans and Scruffy dive into the hot debate around AI in game development. From level design and NPC dialogue to asset creation and bug testing, they explore whether AI is a tool that empowers developers or a shortcut that risks creativity.

    They’ll also touch on AI’s impact on jobs, the flood of low-effort AI games, and whether AAA studios will use AI responsibly — or just to cut corners.

    👉 What do you think: Can AI ever replace human creativity in gaming? Drop your thoughts in the comments!
