Remember when G5 dropped and this was the first image we saw about it? Who would have know that 3D would make it the shortest Gen of MLP?

Yes. I was trying to ignore MLP for awhile there, so I learned about the “activist” thing, it being a G4 continuation and saw this HIDEOUS character design all at once. Gave me a really bad mental breakdown.

>>41431599
Very barely with the beans one. It’s crazy how much unearned good will was afforded to this absolutely butt-ugly trash heap and how it managed to be SO BAD that it was able to lose the Equestria Daily and Derpibooru autists’ interest and completely kill the fandom.

They unironically said that they modelled the shapes and poses after dogs.

When they sit down, they sit down more like a
cat or a dog. A real horse would never sit like
that. So, for Graham, he was trying to get the
bottom legs to move around in the right way.

No they didn't. They modelled it after G4. Cullen's statement here is just saying that G4 ponies sit down like cats or dogs (which they do).

I just realized a new thing that’s so fucking hideous about the animation. So many of them have fur that’s so flesh colored, add that too their hyper realistic teeth and mouth, and when you see them in too small of an image or from too far away, they look like bizarro PS1 Dreamworks uncanny valley freaks with no nose.

The OPG threads regularly display way more appealing (and closer to FiM) characters than 90% of the shit we see in G% and their disturbingly human facial features. Honestly if they had just ripped the model and made a show using it they probably would've been more successful.

>Can't tell the difference between a 3d style AI image and real 3d CGI
The 3d model that's closest to the show proportions is from the "Hello pinkie pie" shorts, and it doesn't look great
>>41432450
Any examples?
>>
>>41431594
I don't understand why corporations think we like 3D, we don't, we only watch this shit because it's the slop you gave us. If we could choose, we'd pick 2D any day.
>>
>>41434170
Cause it's much MUCH cheaper to produce a decent looking 3D movie as opposed a 2D one. It's also the reason they had to change their designs drastically for Tell Your Tale since the first thing companies do to cheap out is replace everything with the signature cheap as shit looking easy to animate Calarts style.
>>
>>41434170
Have you seen 2d shows lately? They're all beanmouths, rubberhose limbs, dot eyes
And that's the standard for animation graduates
Even if a company has the budget for something better, that style is all animators know now
Plus they probably don't know how to animate quadrupeds
>>
The Hanna Barbera style was also made to be cheap I don't get it surely they could've made a cheap style that wasn't uggo bean mouth.

We told you guys many times. We kept saying how unsustainably expensive 3DCG is. You have to have an immense amount of output for your bespoke asset and render pipeline to begin paying off. Remember, we even discussed the obvious crippling limitations the G5 designers faced. Do you recall that they couldn't put clothes on ponies because it was endlessly expensive in 3D? Do you recall that they couldn't do different hairstyles? Do you recall that they only had two kinds of weather? Do you recall that they couldn't do natural animations or movements because of the 3D model issues? We discussed all of that at length. All signs were pointing toward a cut-short trainwreck of a production process because of the designed-to-fail approach Hasbro took. Hasbro would have needed to have a very smart and far-sighted product portfolio lined up for the 3DCG content pipeline to begin paying off.

It's not cheap by today's standards. Also bean mouths are just what students are taught in animation schools like Calarts. Like this shit is not a joke, this actually happens if you go to animation school in America.
>>
>>41434208
This why I see G5 as an inevitable tragedy
On one side modern 2D looks cheap even if you have the budget
Because the problem is a drought of competent personnel, plus no one has experience with quadrupeds
On the other side 3d should be easier to animate but it has infinite limitations.
Hasbro must have even less budget now. The future looks grim for the next generations

G4 ponies can work in 3D just fine it's not the ponies' fault Hasbro is just incompetent as fuck.
>>
>>41434566
Also, that toy is based on the 2017 movie which the art book showed us had their characters fully rendered in 3D, so the 2D animators could rotoscope it later. So they basically were 3D in that film itself, to an extent.

Skill issue. not a 3d issue. Cloth workflows exist with wraps around vertexes

>They only had two kinds of weather

>Couldn't do natural animations or movements
Skill issue, not a 3d issue. The hello pinkie pie rigs were fucking broken, but the MYM team just had to learn how to animate which they did and the last seasons are animated as well as FiM.
You discussed in a circlejerk and never watched the show staff improve their skills, you never had a clue. The only issue was Hasbro was WAY too stingy with G5's tv shows after the movie, instead of hiring competent people from the start they had to learn as they worked on the show and continually improved it until hasjew pulled the plug.

MYM was still hiring key positions after it was announced.
Meghan McCarthy used to butt heads with the other execs due to frequent radical changes with too short of time needed to realize them

Is it possible that MYM was only in development for less than a year before it premiered?
>>
>>41436906
>>41436759
is it just me or i'm starting to notice a pattern of hasjew being to stubborn to let people do shit with mlp? like faust kept fighting with execs. meg and the g% team probably too.
>>
>>41436906
MYM and TYT were both rushed development, should have been in the oven at least another half year.

Hasjew kept the teams in their own bubbles, the ones making the tv shows didn't know the things the movie fags made and that's one reason the MYM and TYT were so all over the place or aimless in the early episodes. Hasjew just told them to make a MLP show and they came up with Misty's arc which was divorced from the movie. What else where they going to do, they didn't even know how to write G5 and the discovery jew was a constant chokehold on what they could reference from g4.

It's the same kind of retarded management decision that forced a MLP g5 movie to be a sequel G4 before G4 even ended, which is why everything from season 8 onward was retconned, no cozy statue and no twiraffe.

Something tells me that G4 wasn't supposed to end yet and Season 10 was supposed to happen but because Hasbro didn't want Discovery to hold on to the rights of FiM they canned it early and told the G5 team to rush it out the door so they wouldn't be left without any Pony media while they waited for the rights to expire.
>>
>>41437143
Plausible, the discovery jewing didn't come to light until later but Hasbro definitely new about losing their rights to the later seasons. All of g5's failures can just be pointed back to absolutely fucking retarded decisions from the top. Each of the 3 teams were meddled with until it was either killed or reduced to slop like TYTs S2 which was night and day bad compared to S1 and no surprise they lost the audience. Hasbro didnt even know what the fuck it wanted, maybe Misty was a mandate like the green goblin baby but they failed to understand why people liked the movie, or the 3d show, or the 2d show.
