Vapor World: Over The Mind Launches to Backlash Over AI-Generated Cutscenes

Alive In's promising Soulslike Metroidvania Vapor World: Over The Mind entered early access on August 19 with 100,000 wishlists but quickly drew overwhelmingly negative Steam reviews focused on AI-generated cutscenes. Studio director Young Kim acknowledged the backlash and committed to replacing the cutscenes by the weekend, though the launch reputation has already suffered.
