Asobo Studio's producer Eric Chort stated the developer deliberately avoids generative AI tools, viewing them as a threat to creativity and authenticity. Asobo's small teams (40–70 people) have succeeded without AI by focusing on original settings, unique characters, and artistic direction rather than scaling to triple-A scope.
