Indie Dev Says “AI” Voice In His Game Was Actually His Wife

Indie Dev Says “AI” Voice In His Game Was Actually His Wife https://ift.tt/qjSaZpf Someone playing Refractive Entertainment's recently released action-RPG Luminary for less than an hour accused the team of using AI for the game's only voiced character. The player said the voice "killed it" for them. There was just one problem: It wasn't AI. It was actually the developer's wife doing her first-ever voice acting gig. Refractive Entertainment launched Luminary into Steam Early Access on August 11. It's a resource-gathering action-adventure sandbox with an art style that's giving Fable meets Immortals Fenyx Rising.

What makes this stand out even more is that releasing a film before Halloween traditionally doesn't make a lot of money. Before this, the biggest openings were 2011's Puss in Boots, earning $34 million, and 2006's Saw III, earning $36 million.

It's also worth mentioning that the film's production cost $20 million, and it's projected that the film has already made at least $11 million in presales. Even though the numbers look good for Freddy, it'll be viewable on Peacock for those with a paid subscription. The Deadline report mentions that a similar thing happened with Halloween Ends, which was originally projected to be over $50 million but only earned $40 million during the opening. However, this didn't stop the film from setting a new record weekend viewership for Peacock.
