Nothing to do with that, is just that most people are not used to any 3D software, learning blender for the first time is almost the exact same experience as learning photoshop for the first time but way more people learned basic PS 16 years ago than people are learning 3D modelling software right now (also MS Paint existing helps conditioning people on how these type of software works)

why is there no game or character like this in modern times?
>>
>>1021891
Thanks. If I’ve learned anything from life, it’s that if you want your wishes to come true, you have to be your own genie. I myself can’t quite say that I’ve come close to accomplishing my long-term goals, but it feels nice to step back and look at how far I’ve journeyed.

Since you’ve asked, I may as well elaborate on what my plans are. Right now I just have this not-quite-a-game that I started putting together a few days ago. It’s rather barren, but I’m currently trying to get the basic structure of the project set up. Keeping with that, I’m using poses instead of animations for the time being since that’s a whole different beast.

There are two main states I have in mind: open world and battle. In the open world, the player can do the typical walk, run, and jump thing and explore the world. The player can come across areas that will trigger the battle state, in which the player can choose members from their roster to join the party.
During the open world state the player can switch between the characters in their roster both for aesthetic purposes, but also because most characters will have enhanced run and/or jump actions that make traversing the large world easier. Nora in particular rides her naginata like a witch’s broomstick because she doesn’t like to run, for two big reasons you can probably guess.
For the battle state, I wanted to do some sort of tactical RPG with turn-based combat, and a skill system similar to FFVII’s materia system. I did some research on chakras and found that the seven chakras correspond to different stats that are common in RPGs, so the player would be able to manage their chakras outside of battle to improve their character’s stats and give them new skills and spells.

>>1022920
The papercuts would be too dangerous for modern audiences
I did have an idea for an origami game at one point. It would have a tech tree where you can research paper airplanes and creature summons for battle.

Love your style. And I appreciate the reply, I would say I have a very strong creative mind and sensibility, I just lack the technical ability to apply it, I've never used blender before recently so I'm trying to learn how to use the tools I've been following guides and tutorials making random stuff to develop familiarity and i hope to be making stuff i want here before long even if its rudimentary.

for your game, are you a coder and all that too? I think making a game is beyond my scope but i think its great you want to make something playable with your creations.
>>
It's been a while since I visited this thread and I was about to say that your style would work well in some form of game or some interactive 3d. I wish that indie devs made games in the style of those obscure early pc interactive 3d where the low-poly is the actual art style in contrast to PSX style games where the low-poly is a limitation.

What engine are you using?

does anyone know why my APNG animation does the camera shake during an orbit? i typically just spin a character's root for turntables with a static camera but i wanted to try something else in case i wanted static directional lighting. i'm guessing this is an issue with interpolation/easing or something but i really don't want to wait another 2.5 hours to see if that's the correct fix.

>>1022896
I didn't notice the headphones so they don't add anything in my opinion
>>
>>1022896
I don't think they fit because they seem way too realistic, or the earpiece does at least, given the aesthetic of the character. I could probably say the same for the pentagram chain and belts and things, but somehow they just werk.

You'll miss out on features and performance improvements. Try to keep your projects more modest instead.
If you really want to improve your Blender performance then switch to a linux distribution. Modern Windows is far too bloated.
