So we should use corporate shitty AI art to replace the beloved artwork of classic games instead of just pirating or grabbing from Internet Archive? Bold take in a place like Lemmy.

Beloved artwork does no good if proprietary. OpenTTD does it best, making their own assets to replace the originals, but not everybody can put that much effort. I would rather have game with generated assets than no game at all or having to go through the hurdles of pirating abandonware.
