Can you play and enjoy a game with an art style you don’t like?

[Gizmo_Duck]

Honestly, i can’t even look at certain games. Some I hate the art style so much even if people tell me they’re good I’ll just ignore it. Stuff that looks like this is just a flat out no fukking way.

And if im being honest xenoblade kinda borders this style too, but its saved by extremely good animation and mech

Almost never with those ugly-ass anime games. I'm trying to think of the last one I played.

Nope. That's what hurt Nidhogg 2. The first was already an eye sore and they went overboard with 2. Shame because 1 was a fun game.

If I see a game with a big head and small body like FF15 Pocket or Street Fighter Pocket I am not playing that shyt..The only exception to the rule is Dragonquest Builders. I think I don't like those type of games because it messes with my suspension of disbelief.

Very much so

Very much so

ganon wasnt chibi

Link looked more like a cartoon. his animation and expressiveness was unprecedented. it was even more so than the current zelda

 

[Dirty Mcdrawz]

Really depends on the gameplay and narrative….

I guess, i always thought about chibi as depicting people as more childlike than they’re supposed to be, ‘cutesy’. Thats typically why they have bigger heads and eyes.

Link looks like a 7 year old in Wind Waker, but he’s still a teenager.

I’ve never played FFIX because of its art style.

This just shyt. It looks like them cheap ass anime mmorpgs that Korea was pumping out like hotcakes in the 2000s and early 2010s

in the 90s-early 2000s i would play a chibi aka "super deformed" game, but not now. the type of game that gets made like that now is just not what im into.

a lot of western games turn me off now. the dark, dreary colors, 'buzz cut white man with a shotgun' look is a no unless i read that the gameplay is great.

Tales of Symphonia is my favorite game of all time. I do like the game’s art style overall, but I never cared for the “chibi” character models. Mostly because it makes it look like everyone (who isn’t a small child) is the same height.
