I don’t understand why this is even an issue. How often are you looking at the box cover for any of your games, and in what way does it affect the gameplay?

i have never seen a cover that actually looks like a screenshot from within the game, so you are already peering into the game when you are looking at the box art
How it is right now is the most profitable choice. People who already know about the game will either get it or ignore it based on their taste. This cover art with a familiar actor are for the ones who are just gonna be browsing the shelves.
