it's rare for an actor to make a single line iconic, but Tim Curry made single WORDS iconic multiple times. "space!" is an obvious one for gamers, but also his "no" in Clue ("nneeauoo!"), his awkward laugh through the word "babe" in Oscar. he made HALF a word iconic (you know the one)

That Saber were willing to conceal this much AI generated content represents such an astonishing breach of trust with the customer, especially after only disclosing it when forced to. How are people to trust them not to act this deceptively with other titles?

Al Generated Content Disclosure
The developers describe how their game uses Al

Generated Content like this:
The main Campaign story, characters, and dialogue are written by a team of human writers. Al tools are used for voice generation and some localization.

The optional Free Ride mode includes Al-generated passenger missions and localized dialogue. Free Ride mode is separate from the main Campaign and can be skipped by players who prefer to experience only human-written narrative content.

The game also includes a mix of radio stations featuring human-made music and Al-generated music. Stations containing Al-generated music are clearly labeled as such in the game.
