Maybe you think they're lame because those are screenshots of an actual game being rendered in realtime, and not just a picture someone drew for a visual novel with some text over it.
Funny that you would call rendered content more valuable than hand-crafted art
It's even funnier that no, I didn't.
But, if you really want to compare the artistic value of a screenshot of a game, one is equivalent to going out in the world with a camera and composing a photo of your natural surroundings, while the other is the equivalent of typing "anime girl" into google images and saving one of them.
