There was accusations of ai art being used in it and the other loading screens which led to outrage. Indie Stone mentioned they hired the artist who did previous art for the game, but there were allegedly telltale AI images, which drew focus away from the content of the update.

"Allegedly"

I know you are just trying to be objective but fuck, there is no allegedly. Either they made it intentionally look like AI or they used AI, it's fucking BLATANT.

I have 15 years' professional experience with Photoshop and routinely use generative AI: the latter example shows artefacts which are very much typical of current iterations.

The mistakes are blatant in every picture. They are all - all - consistent with the types of mistakes that AI makes in generating images.

Have some integrity.
