Your artist gave her high poly face low poly thighs

I prefer the left, but because of the lighting, not the art.

If I was scrolling through a list of titles on Steam, that would pop out to me more.

Given, it gives off horror survival vibes, so if your game isn't that, then carry on haha.

The human-made art here is clearly just a bunch of copy/paste, or a screenshot of a game with a filter on it. Look at the columns on the walls. They're all completely identical. Same exact texture on all of them. That doesn't happen when a human actually draws 10 columns. But it does happen when a mediocre artist draws one column and copy/pastes it. Or when they use an asset pack to create a 3D scene and then apply some kind of art filter to it.

So, maybe we can postpone the deep dive into AI vs Human, and just acknowledge that the human artist here did an extremely cheap/sloppy job? Is that what we're supposed to be "supporting" and "protecting" by not using AI art?

The left is AI or the Right? The left looks better to me. Plus some platforms don't like promos where the gun is pointing out. As lame as that sounds. Apple, for example. Ideally, they don't want the gun at all but otherwise pointed away.

Left is ai, it's a PC game and so I wanted it to be similar to other of the genre

I mean... as someone who draws for fun I will say artist did a really fricking bad job with imagine on the right, like super lazy work: left wall is copy-paste city, ceiling is AI generated xd, character looks flat and not even properly cutted from somewhere xd and goddarn this unrealistic shine of light coming straight out of her butt just to achieve any sort of contrast... And AI did much better job at composition because it copied the most and easy common one, your artist had not idea what composition is.
