What is the ruling on a computer game that contains characters with effaced faces, yet they move, perform actions, and speak? And is this considered drawing animate beings?

If the faces of all drawn pictures in the game are effaced, then it is permissible to create them, provided they are free from other impermissible elements, based on the saying of Ali ibn Abi Talib: "Do not leave any statue but that you efface it, nor any elevated grave but that you level it."
