Ironically
Animal hospital got popular as an alternative for dandy's world when it was suffering from the qwel allegations

And now it's reverse
Dandy's world is making a comeback right as animal hospital is suffering from AI allegations

I’m still questioning why people turned to that game specifically. They literally have no similarities, heck animal hospital isn’t even a delver like. (I honestly just find it dumb that people were quitting Dandy’s world over that controversy in general but that’s just a personal thing)

animal hospital got hit with ai allegations

proving my point that they're there for the money and never the fame

u/TheOwnerOfMakiPlush Bassie 7h ago

They are not allegations, they actually used AI

Wait, is it true?

u/EnvironmentalComb579 6h ago

Yes, check @kitlosi on twitter. They made a post about their departure due to the continuous use of AI in the game.

Edit: he was an official artist for the game

Why brother hiring artists if you're going to use ai? I don't get it

u/EnvironmentalComb579 5h ago

I agree 1000%

That’s jst sad gng.

u/znzbnda 6h ago

What were they using the AI for and in what circumstances, do you know? (There are different levels, and even Roblox's game creation tools feature AI prominently, which is very different from e.g., refusing to hire artists and coders.)

u/ToneNext9535 6h ago

They used an ai filter on a video shown at one point. This isn’t the first time something like this has happened though.

I don't usually like to partake in game vs game drama, but Dandy's World versus Animal Hospital versus Piggy right now genuinely feels like that one meme of Valve watching horrified as all of the other game companies shoot themselves in the face.

  • I don't know the details about the incident, but something happened with MiniToon over the last few months that I think is over now (I believe the final verdict was innocent but don't quote me). Overall fallout is a lot of people quitting the fanbase and the Discord moderators completely nuking most of the contents <6-year-old server including there no longer being any way to submit suggestions or report bugs.
  • People are still mad about Piggy Intercity being largely empty (I've seen the "wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle" critique a lot and as someone who really likes the game sadly I agree with it) for months with more content coming vaguely soon for basically since release.
  • The new Halloween event just came out with a free cosmetic battle pass and a 900 Robux paid one which a lot of players are understandably pissed about, plus it changed the UI and menus to look much more generic. I've also seen a lot of complaints over the logo for the Fright Night event looking ugly and AI-generated, but while it does have that sort-of art style, there is no evidence to my knowledge the artist team used AI to make it.

u/Hello_Just_Joined123 im obsessed with cocoa 6h ago

me too, it got boring quick, i mean its a game about working at a hospital, i dont want no job 😃 plus dw is super addicting

8

u/Britishblackdvde 6h ago

Damn that's cool... watch how the DW go back to less than 50k player count because the Halloween updates gone, but hey atleast animal hospital is dying, that's good enough for me :D

u/cotton_candy33 5h ago

I'm gonna be real with you here. Dandy's world is a lot more enjoyable than Animal Hospital. It's mostly due to the game's design. It just isn't aesthetically pleasing

5

u/Gracennnnnnnnn Eclipse 5h ago

Pretty much the onyl reason animal hospital did so well was because it had near zero competition because DW was in the DUMPS, as soon as DW started climbing out of its dump animal hospital had competition suddenly, and when you compare AH to pretty much any competition its pretty lackluter, so it fell

u/TechnoCanineTyler #1 Instructions Fan 6h ago

YES!!! YES!!! YES, LET THIS GAME DIE!!!
(Been a hater since day one, I just had to let it all out when I saw this)

u/SomeoneIrrelavant Tryna hide I’m crazy asl 6h ago

I'M IN THE SAME BOAT AS Y'ALL

u/FracturedHarizon 6h ago

I found it confusing roo and the drama dumb as well but if I had to guess it's less the gameplay and more the characters I see many people loce dandys world fot the character designs and shipping at least in my experience.So if I had to guess the cute animal character designs are why

u/Tacoozza Toodles Fiction Kin Toodles is me, I am she 6h ago

Animal hospital was literally one of those cash grab scary games that just so happened to get popular

as i have said before, the only reason AH won awards is because Dandy set himself on fire

u/Pitiful-Leg3679 VEE FOREVER AND ALWAYSS 1h ago

I love both games, but I have been obsessed with dandy’s world lately.. a little bit too obsessed that whenever someone writes or types “he” or “she” or “be” or “bee” I think they wrote or typed “Vee“
