Post pretty environments from retro games and by doing so convince others to play them.
kino video game
>>10930060There's something about indoor screens with a static camera that I love in particular.
>>10928865>realmystfuck off
>>10930402It has the best atmosphere>>10930407>tumblr
>>10930402>I want to look at the same exact pre-rendered images dithered down and compressed to hell, FOREVER>No, I don't want to explore the world shown in the images, why would I want to do that?Keep on coping. realMyst has the best atmosphere, gameplay, and visuals of any version of Myst.
Neo Geo games have some of the most beautiful backgrounds
>>10927621>(There's no place to put the medal.)
>>10930478>>10930830sorry I forgot im on /vr/ where retro sucks and remakes are better
>>10927621ANY place from Legend of Dragoon
>>10930852Even if you can't enjoy 3D, Masterpiece Edition is the same game as Myst, except with higher resolution videos. You're defending postage-stamp sized videos to try and fit in.
>>10931286Not really. Even I can find an interesting visual atmosphere to the original renders, even in small resolutions. They're all separate recreations from the original, each one lending an appropriately different but similar experience.
>>10927621I've been coming back to this game more and more just for the atmosphere.
>>10931286>Even if you can't enjoy 3D, Masterpiece Edition is the same game as MystIt's not.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cS7eXVn00sg&t=1020sMasterpiece Edition doesn't even have the full music in the fore-chamber.
>>10930947>Legend of DragoonIs this really PS1? It looks way too smooth
>>10930839I was gonna post this. The Last Blade 2 has the most beautiful backgrounds of any fighter i've ever played.
>¡El Pollo Diablo!
>>10927902looking pixelated
>>10930947Soul, the likes of which we will never see again
>>10931828Pixels = soulPixeless = soulless
>>10931880>playing on a CRT is soulless>playing on a HD panel is soul
>>10931354Vice City annihilates this game
>>10931508love me cursesimple as
>>10931930The environment is fantastic but the cartoonish character designs are an eyesore.
>>10931960>character designs are an eyesore.what??? i don't think there could have been a better adaptation from the pixelated versions.
>>10927621I recognized the exact location before clicking the thread, the prerendered backgrounds were really homey
>>10931494And too bad that they are "hidden" into some difficult, and short gameplay.It would have been wonderful to rip them and use them in a 2D rpg romhack, or something like that
>>10930947I keep hearing how this game sucks for 10 years. Is it true though?
>>10931960How can you say that? The character design is peak in Curse.
>>10927621
Goemon just has a pleasant look to it.
>>10936548I keep hearing the opposite - that it's one of the best games ever, and also really hard to find
>>10936548Half and half. Much of the complaining was because the years of delays meant Sony released a FF7 tier game in a post FF8 world. It looked "old fashioned" in other words with its gouraud shaded stylised character models and '95 era CG backgrounds. But gameplay-wise it's a solid RPG with some rough edges.
>>10939654Also I just realized that's referring to Panzer Dragoon Saga, not Legend of Dragoon. Is Panzer good at least?
>>10940339What the everloving FUCK is this?
>>10940391a game?
>>10940402Well, that’s cleared that up! Thanks for coming, mate !
>>10940426It's a SCREENSHOT of a game.
>>10940426kek, it is Shadow Hearts for PS2
>>10931852>>10930947Thanks anon(s), this game hasn't interested me before because I heard it's mediocre, but this inspired me to download it. I do like the backgrounds, the translation is pretty lolworthy though and the timing based battles are surprisingly hard to pull off (either I suck, or there's input lag caused either by emulation or the hardware I'm using).I've heard it's like 50 hours long though so I'll probably put this on the backburner until I clear out some of the longer games from my backlog. Thanks again anon.
>>10940436Nah, not buying it, not on 4chan. Proof or GTFO>>10940440I googled the text but thanks anyway
Just finishes this and still havs no clue what is going on
>>10940546>>10940551>>10940553They're very pretty games but not retro
>>10931508>>10931930First game that came to mind when I saw this thread.
I wouldn't mind retiring in such a place.
>>10941773Game?
>>10941783Not him, but I think it might be Black Mirror? It used to give me nightmares as a kid
>>10941853I want that car.
