imo this kind of ai art is a pass for me. the weird dreamy nature of it gives it its own grip apart from having an ultra realistic depiction of not just something that already exists but trying to act as a replacement for real art direction. only played the first painting but this game so far fucks.
I think outright disregarding things because of ai is stupid.
I understand why people dislike Ai art but acting pretentious and thinking you can dictate what makes something art or objectively good. This is the kind of snobby stuff that makes people want to support AI in the first place. Quit being a baby and enjoy the game lol.
He made a good game with a great story that just happened to use AI, nothing about its substance would change if there were AI sprites or not.
