Honestly, I think the fact that Anomaly Cafe was released only about a month right after Animal Hospital is one of the reasons why people justify the DMCA. Here's my point of view from when both these games released, one of my little cousin's were sleeping over at my house and was playing roblox before she asked me why Animal Hospital was so different, I looked at her tablet and saw it was a newly released game, Anomaly Cafe. I had to tell her it was a totally different game, and I also recall her talking about how they both had orange monsters at the front so it really confused her. This might just be a unique case on my part but from a child's perspective, they both looked the same on the outside even though they were totally different games in their own respective fields. I understood that at the time and didn't really think much of it and guided my cousin play Animal Hospital for the rest of the night. But now I feel like it plays a bigger role in this conversation. Did anyone have any similar experiences during that time?

Not gonna lie, Animal Hospital would’ve flopped if Qwel didn’t get exposed.

0:10 - ngl that logo lowkey also looks AI generated

Animal Hospital trying to DMCA Anomaly Cafe for "taking inspiration" is crazy. Like, both character designs were inspired by animal crossing so I don't see how they're copying each other, it's like Animal Hospital owns their inspiration and doesn't allow anyone else to take it. I hope we can get more info about the situation to clear up and resolve it, this is so messed up in so many ways.

These days is rare to see a top Roblox game that is not AI slop, if parents just checked what their children play...

"I don't think Anomaly Hospital knows the difference between a copy and inspiration. I've played both, and even though there are a few similar mechanics, the games are distinct, each with its own personality and creativity. The real issue is that Anomaly Hospital needs to put more soul into its game instead of just using AI to do almost everything."

them using ai for the 2nd time is just proof this game is going downhill

I really liked animal hospital and though I despise ai I was hoping they’d learn from their mistake. The DMCA is also disgusting as no one owns a genre.
I’ve never played anomaly cafe, but I think I’ll move over to it and show some love and support while animal hospital (hopefully) fixes itself up.

yeaaahhhhh, this is the first time i'm hearing that it has used ai, twice😭

I mean it did make scenes if you saw some odd ai images that did raise suspicions

yo this is accurate

3:36 mind you nothing is ever so serious you have to dox somebody especially not ai

Im so happy my most hated game has finally been cancelled. I CAN FINALLY VOICE MY DISLIKE WITHOUT GETTING DEATH THREATS ❤❤

Honestly in my opinion, this is almost as bad as the Dandys world drama earlier this year, I thought animal hospital was a good game. But apparently the devs are messed up, it’s very disappointing that I have spent most of my Robux on this game.

1:38 да, это слишком раздуто конечно не очень хорошо что когда у них появились художники и прочие работники они используют ии, но это мелочь.Animal hospital с самого начала своего существования использовал ии и когда они свели использование ии к минимому использовав ии в паре картинок для телевизора это уже что то ужастное.Типа кто смотрит на телевизоры, я не люблю ии но это ведь такая мелочь!Измененно:создатели Animal hospital использовали ии в 1% работы а всё остальное было отдано художникам,фандом Animal hospital:7:56

Ok hot take take the only time doxxing is ok is if your really evil as an example if someone who did some illigel things to kids and youtube or the police wont do antything then thye should be harrassed

I understand why some people are upset about AI, especially artists who feel strongly about protecting human-made artwork. But at the end of the day, Animal Hospital is the developers' game. They should be allowed to decide what tools they use to create and develop their own game, just like any other developer.

We as players can absolutely give feedback, decide whether we want to support the game, or say that we personally don't like AI. But I don't think we should act like we get to dictate every creative decision the developers make.
They're human beings too, and they're working under deadlines, expectations and a community that constantly wants new updates, skins, features and content. When thousands of people are watching and criticising every decision, I can understand why development could become stressful and why developers might feel pressured.

That doesn't mean everyone has to agree with their use of AI. Artists are allowed to leave, players are allowed to criticize it, and the developers are allowed to make their own decisions. But there's a difference between giving legitimate criticism and making developers feel like they aren't allowed to experiment or make mistakes in their own project.
I personally would rather see the community communicate with the developers about what they want instead of attacking them. If they listen and change something, great. If they don't, then we can decide whether we still want to support the game.

At the end of the day, it's their project. We can influence it through feedback, but we shouldn't believe we own it.

This is why I play Anomaly Cafè now, it's so much more fun (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

It's just sad, I got hyperfixated in the game for 2 months now, I was even introducing my best friend to the game and planning to play together again, honestly the only thing I can think of to fix this is an owner change, but I'm not sure, I'm not a game dev just a disappointed artist

Am I surprised? No, It’s a pure slop game
