He just told you: "it looks terrible." And he's not wrong; Factorio's art really does kinda suck.
I don't think it necessarily sucks. It's just old and I'm not a fan of it.
It looks like the "good enough" placeholder art that devs put in before they get around to hiring an actual artist. It's serviceable to understand what things are and what's happening, but there's no style to it.
Mindustry looks like one of those games you'd find on those "1001 Games!" cds back in the 90s thatbalways had the Hugo Whodunit games and the shareware version of Wolfenstein 3D. It has that MS Paint look to it.
