TL;DR (from a quick read through) :
The app is inkarnate, the CEO announced they’re planning on allowing creators to put AI Generated content on their marketplace, with AI labels.
This plus price hikes means a bunch of people are cancelling their subscription.
but for what its worth (and gamerant failed to update their drama piece):
they back peddled.
Good spot!
Thanks
Dungeondraft is the way to go IMO: buy once, no sub, tons of extra assets available. There’s also Wondedraft if you’re doing world maps.
I wish I could get it to run on Linux
It runs fine on Linux for me out of the box.
Oh really? Huh. I’ll have to try again
It’s been a while since I installed is, bit I think the only thing I had to do was make a shell script executable, which I think it says to do in the readme? Could be misremembering though.
DungeonDraft is a wonderful tool.
It looks like Inkarnate decided to allow AI “art” in the marketplace.
Oh man, did a subscription service burn people? No way, I never could have guessed!
Theres another one called Dungeon Alchemist which claims to use AI, but the AI in question is actually just a very complex if=>then=>else statement (think npc ai). I have no idea why they are calling their scripts AI.
Before all this LLM nonsense that was AI and it still is. I guess they are just being overly transparent.
Either they’re seeing how popular AI is becoming and they’re calling it that to get some of that popularity, or they’re using the term AI in a different way than it’s currently used (so for example referring to regular NPC behavior as NPC AI).
