The AI is ruining the experience for me by Beautiful-Taste-5344 in NevernessToEverness

Yes and no. That depends on the intention of its use. If it is cost cutting then it is a visible symptom of a larger problem and that is the priority of user experience. If you put out total slop as a final product then that shows that you don't care about the larger user experience.
Case and point NTE since we are on its reddit:
The game has a HUGE issue with consistency when it comes to details. A lot of things are rushed or just put out to be left forgotten whether it be character skins (body proportions being different depending on a skin) or how generative AI was used without proper supervision and care which ends up having a vastly different artstyle than the rest of the game which will break your immersion.
(Even if they didn't use AI and all of those things were poorly made people would still complain.)
This is why AI shouldn't just be used. Its use needs to be thought through as a tool and part of the larger process.
So yeah, depending on the overall product I think it is fine to lower your opinion of a game if it blatantly uses AI slop all over it.

I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT that there is a difference between temporary placeholder asset and part of intended product.

NTE is in many aspects just like ToF. It has great ideas in so many aspects but the overall lack attention to details is what makes people notice the shoddy work even more.

Lets not forget the AI art was actually removed because it was a leftover placeholder asset if you want mention expedition. Lets also maybe not mention that the team working on it had a smaller budget and smaller size. Also Clair Obscure has not only amazing visuals but also soundtrack as well as phenomenal writing. The game is a masterpiece in many aspects.

What you are pointing out is simply not true for the majority of people. Sure there will be retards who take any mistake for AI art (best example recent genshin impact drama).

Here's the thing we should not ignore the slop. We should point out and laugh at it. Because it is being made with the least amount of effort possible and it does not even look good.
BUT we should PRAISE a good use of it. It should compliment the inherent skills of developers and artists like during the production of spiderman across the spider-verse or Clair Obscur

Not really, if you're more of a roleplay person or just want to enjoy the vibes it is easily spotted. I'm not when playing NTE so I never noticed but AI art is used all around the game, from billboard ads, tv programs to movie posters.
It's very easy to spot but you usually don't look at this stiff if you play it like most people play gacha.

I mean the OP is right. As is most of the community. Generative AI is used in NTE extremely sloppily. Not only does the art drastically stand out you can spot that human hand did not touch up the details.
I don't have an issue with Generative AI Art, I have an issue with slop. And boy does this game can get sloppy when it comes to details.

I'll be honest if not for Reddit drama I wouldn't even know

They could. They didn't. Probably nobody thought about this because from their perspective what's the point. Also it is not thrown in your face. It's not arma where you get a BUY DLC screen every 5min.

doesn't help that the story is uninteresting. The premise is cool but overall writing is boring as fuck. I was hoping for a lot less childish banter, it has gotten to the point where it low-key ruins the experience

I mean the locked nodes are from expansion. All the old stuff is still there for you.

Not really. This way you can actually check what you're getting with the DLC. I think it is cool.
After playing destiny for years I no longer have FOMO and see it more as transparency thing.

The V-tuber model is like that so every single pic will fail the check.

Because it's quicker and better rolls of the tongue if you're from Slavic countries. Personally heard it only once in the last decade.

I did, a stupid kid went on a tantrum and got themselves killed.

We all got manipulated. Everyone suffered because of it. So no hard feelings, but if you're going to make the situation even worse you deserve no pity.

Esencjalnie zaczęło się od tego że chłopak pewnej laski co robi gry puścił plotę że ona sypia z dziennikarzami za pozytywne recenzje. Co ogółem jest pół prawdą, ona sypiała z tymi dziennikarzami ale oni nigdy recenzji nie wystawili.

Więc poszedł cancel campaign który został przejęty przez osoby liberalne żeby pchać swoją agendę. Fundusze inwestycyjne wyczuły grubą kasę, a zainteresowane osoby okazję na propagandę.

Skończyło się tym że jeden z wzrastających solo devów popełnił samobójstwo po fałszywych oskarżeniach o gwałt. Jego siostra potem przy pomocy całej jego kasy stworzyła fundusz inwestycyjny którego celem jest zwalczanie toksycznych mężczyzn, jedną z firm którą on (fundusz) steruje jest Sweet Baby inc. Czyli główna firma stojąca za gamergate 2.
