Destiny Rising’s AI voice controversy, explained

Destiny: Rising Players quickly noticed that not all dialogue was delivered by human actors. Some lines were filled in with AI-generated voices, creating a strange mix of lively performances and flat, robotic ones. The result? An experience that felt awkward and, to many, disrespectful.

Fans and industry professionals pushed back hard, arguing that even “temporary” AI use chips away at the work of real voice actors. With the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strikes already highlighting fears about AI replacing human talent, the decision struck a nerve.

Developer NetEase clarified that these AI voices were just placeholders and promised they’ll be replaced by real actors in the final game. Still, the damage was done, and the move sparked distrust and fed into bigger debates about the role of AI in gaming, especially when it comes to protecting creative jobs.
