Most of the soulslike games are very similar to the Dark Souls series. However, most of them have some form of identity of their own that distinguishes them from a well-known brand as well as from other competitors. However, in the case of the recently released Bleak Faith: Forsaken, the community has noticed that it may be too similar to FromSoftware games. Some of the animations used in this work are almost identical to what we know, for example from Elden Ring, which you can see in the attached frames.
And what do the creators of Blak Faith: Forsaken say about the similarity? According to the developers, these must be animations and assets purchased from the Epic Marketplace. In total, they should make up about 10% of their work. A request/complaint was even created with a comment from one of the creators: “I filed a community concern with Epic Customer Support and outlined the allegations regarding animation. We decided to show goodwill in advance and generally become a very satisfied customer on the Epic marketplace. We’ll let you know what they say about it and respond accordingly. We are not judges or experts on what is allowed and what is not, and we do not own the rights to any of these animations. Therefore, we contacted them to get confirmation about the person who created these animations.“
In general, there were more complaints in the finale, and not all of them were directed at the animation of Bleak Faith: Forsaken. Artwork for AI-generated perks has also been criticized. The studio responded to this complaint as follows:We hear about it. We are currently working on new icons. It was kind of an oversight, but also a decision that came from an honest place. However, we appreciate your feedback and will be reworking skill icons later today!“
Maybe if we tell them to remove the garbage AI illustrations from the game, they will do it too. I was in awe of Bleak Faith and seeing Midjourney shit in it was a big disappointment. https://t.co/mnrvMoBSj5 pic.twitter.com/meoARFATfu
