WOAT Artstyle You've Seen In Gaming?

[TryObsidian?]

SF4 and SFxT were ugly as hell.

All those indie pixel games look nasty, except that Duke Nukem clone Ion Fury. That's the only good looking pixel game.

I'd prefer generic anime to the boring final fantasy shyt we've had since 13

I hate the snes pixel look on indie games

This is 2021, your personal computer is strong enough to create ps3 level graphics at this point, stop using indie games as your excuse

naw....despite ff15 not being great, and the characters themselves being a bit more on the bland side (black clothes) the actual world design shyts on 98% of JRPGs. Theres a reason Final Fantasy is in a class of its own and continues to be a big franchise while the vast majority of rpg series have long died off.

that generic anime art style in gaming was always scust to me

the games look utterly interchangeable

I actually agree with this and it's why I don't fukk RPGs like the Tales games anymore.

I've been seeing more and more of these making a comeback and everytime I see a new one im just like cause I can't tell if they did it because of nostalgia bait, laziness or its the trend or all three

add me too when it comes to these 2D/8-bit games

Take away SNES pixel look and place it with NES/Sega Master system looking shyts and I mostly agree. It can work sometimes and be really well done (Katana Zero and Huntdown do those styles gracious justice), but I do detest games that go for that like just to be doing to it, whether it be just to be retro and pixel or to be cheap. fukk outta here with that. Gotta put some style into that shyt.

It gets really, really old and you'll notice that far too many indie devs lean on that shyt as a crutch. They're damn near as generic as AAA titles at this point.

That Avengers game is the first game that comes to mind.

I also don’t like the way Souls games look either.

Something annoys me about fortnites jump animation the game feels weird

The pixel shyt is popular with indie games because it's extremely time and cost effective. Part of why high quality sprite shyt died down after the PS1/2 era is HD made it really expensive. Once we got to HD resolution that shyt basically becomes decent animation levels of work and isn't worth it cost wise when you gotta spend money on building an entire game. Its why even 2d plane fighting games are 3D now. KOF 13 used some weird mix to get the look they did iirc but it was still expensive.

I been looking for this thread/comment and randomly came across it while looking for comments on katana zero…I still hate this style (turned me off from playing dead cells after about an hour or so) but katana zero is fun enough that I can overlook it

 

[Womb Raider]

Fortnite is generic and shytty

That SNES look in 2022 is crazy

Games like Katana Zero and Huntdown does that style justice tho. Lot of indie 80's pixel art games are uninspired, which those two are exceptions to that.

Jeez fire emblem engage is the perfect example of anime i don’t fukk with

Most of this art wasnt even from the game, and from the anime movie that takes place before the events of the game.
