New Drama: 'Xing Jie' Exposed for Heavy Reliance on AI Art, Character Animations Under Fire

Just five days after its public launch, the new game 'Xing Jie' has sparked intense debate in the community over its 'unique' approach to art production. Players pointed out that on the third day, the game quietly censored a character’s skirt by turning a transparent element into an opaque one, while simultaneously removing the character's animation. What's worse, observant players discovered that the 'censored' assets were actually already present in the day-one install files.

The controversy escalated on the fifth day when an update added animations to the censored images. However, the bizarre details of the character's underarms immediately triggered suspicion among experienced players who recognized the tell-tale signs of AI-generated imagery. In the community discussion, users mocked the 'classic AI flavor,' pointing out anatomical disasters like hands with only four fingers, as well as an unnatural connection between the head and neck.

Players are outraged by the lack of quality control. One user commented, 'I can understand small studios using AI to save money, but do they have to use it without even basic retouching?' Others jokingly compared the aesthetic to the Iron Blood faction from the popular naval gacha game 'Azur Lane,' highlighting how generic and unpolished the assets feel.
