Decent looking pixel art games that come out these days required an actual artist, because AI doesn't do well with pixel art yet.
But I'd say the most low effort slop of all are games made from Unreal Engine templates. There are tons and because Unreal does everything for you the games all look and feel the same. It's that awful default shader you see on every game since Ark Survival. It's those games that perform like garbage because the dev didn't know how to optimize; the dev didn't know anything and probably just bought some assets from the Fab store. Most low effort slop there is.
