What’s an « artistic » choice that will instantly make you…

What’s an « artistic » choice that will instantly make you write off/not touch a boardgame that ISN’T AI usage?

We pretty much know at this point that using AI art is pretty divisive in the hobby. But what OTHER type of artistic choice makes feels offputting to you to the point where you can’t see yourself want to buy or even play the game?

For me it’s screenshots or 1:1 usage from an already created product like a TV Series, Show, movie, anime screenshot or just a straight up Real life picture.

One exception is « Earth ». I’m not the biggest fan, but I am okay/like the artistic pictures taken there for the most part.

But otherwise? Watching two real life businessmen shake hands as a picture to illustrate an « alliance like » effect? I’m out.

Other similar effect: I hear a lot if good things from the Invincible deckbuilding game which is apparently similar in feel to Marvel/DC United…. But man, just seeing screenshots from the show for the most part just feels so…. lazy?

I just can’t shake that « rushed/quick cashgrab » feeling from games like that. Maybe there’s still quite a bit of work put into it, but it’s just one of those things that will instantly make me put a game back on the shelf.
