"However, in addition to battling monsters, players must also face off against each other in intense PvP combat. They must navigate through the dungeon, fight off waves of monsters, and solve puzzles to progress deeper into the dungeon. "Players choose their characters from a variety of classes, each with unique abilities and playstyles. "Certainly! Here's a generic game description for a PvP dungeon crawling game: In this PvP dungeon crawling game, players compete against each other in a dangerous and mysterious dungeon filled with traps, puzzles, and monsters. This is what ChatGPT came up with when the developer asked it to create a "description for a generic PvP Dungeon Crawling game", like that of Dark and Darker and Nexon's P3: The developer used the AI chatbot to show how the "premise of adventurers delving into dungeons full of monsters and treasures in their quest to seek riches, is so generic and common that it can be broadly be applied to numerous other fantasy games". In an amusing defence, Ironmace included a segment from ChatGPT within its statement. Now, in a further and extensive update (via Reddit), Ironmace has penned a statement which is "intended to address the serious allegations of Copyright Infringement and Misappropriation of Trade Secrets that have been levied against us in the recent DMCA 'Takedown Notice' from Nexon Korea Corporation" Newscast: Are Unreal Engine's procedural generation and Ubisoft's Ghostwriter the future of game development? As a result, Dark and Darker was removed from Steam.Īt this time, Ironamce asked for "understanding" as it worked to get the game back on the site, noting that "due to the sensitive legal nature of this issue" it has to be "careful with statements so as to not jeopardise position". Over the weekend, Ironmace stated it had been served a cease and desist letter and DMCA takedown by Nexon, something the developer said is "based on distorted claims". This follows an accusation from Nexon, another Korean developer and one which several Ironmace employees used to work for, which claimed its game (P3) was used as a prototype for Dark and Darker. Ironmace, the Korean developer behind upcoming looter Dark and Darker, has used ChatGPT to try and prove it hasn't infringed any copyright claims.
