Clair Obscur won multiple awards but used generative AI art as placeholders during production.

This has the same validity as an argument as "I was just following orders"

Ok, reality check: we are talking about video game awards. Calm down.

    That doesn't change the claim. Following the rules for the sake of following the rules instead of understanding why they are there is a defining trait of this sheep behavior.

    My guy, the whole "I'm just following orders" is about people harming others because they were ordered to do so, it's not about acting as a group in general ffs.

    Yeah that's the worst case scenario. But the behavior is bad in general
