To be fair I think if there is any kinda okay use of GenAI is being able to get some images and such without needing the money to hire an artist.

Maybe that allows for way more niche games.

In other words: It's the whole package. If I get something unique, and the dev used some "AI" for translation or to make some avatar image for a character I am happy this game is allowed to exist.

If I see a AAA studio putting out the hundredth iteration of the same old game, of some franchise that used to be good and interesting in the 90s and then doesn't even bring actually new art to the table it's a huge disappointment.

But here we are. EA cannot even manage to fix their basic bugs (like players running into nets or a new kickoff for less than a second) after a dozen of new expensive releases.

Non-indie games have largely been a complete farce for decades now.
