Tavern Keeper, a game about slinging beer to orcs and hobbits. I know it looks like that disgusting shire game, but it's actually a fun tavern sim.
>>
what would you call this particular graphical style? the bulky, very lightly barely textured and gradient reliant faux low poly lineless assets? I feel like I see it in every "how to make your first low poly model in blender" tutorial

No idea, I hate the art style be eurojank seems to love it. Absolver had it too.

you idiot, nobody is saying it's NOT low poly, just like how they're not saying 4 isn't a number, but it's vague, anon asked for a very specific style description and you gave a broad one

pic rel are both low poly but they look visually distinct from one another, they're not the same style, the low poly aspect is just one part of the overarching visual aesthetic

you don't have an actual answer but still feel the need to reply just to feel involved so you say something generic and "technically correct" and then act upset that your answer was unhelpful, it's like those people who try and sound smart in academia by giving a broad wikipedia'd reply to a specific question to try and "umm, well, you know, like, kinda like that, umm umm ummmm..." their way out of admitting they don't actually know
just say you don't know

half-life 1 isn't low poly you goddamn moron
low poly refers to a graphical artstyle without textures AND with a low polygon count on models AND with toned aesthetically pleasant matte color palettes
but you go on to sperg out, complete with reddit spacing, about being... le "technically correct" and then some ebin reddit own about being ackshually correct

>>726114861
nobody called half-life 1 a "low poly artstyle" game back in the day zoomies. Back in that time, it was considered to be realistic graphics. Were they photorealistic? No, but that's what they were trying to emulate with the technology they had.

yeah and nobody called the 50's old back when they were modern but now they're old that's how progression works, retard
the only people who refuse to see it are underages scared of growing up, saying "i-it's not old because i tooooottaly remember it when it came out, really!" is not something any actual older person does, not a single mature human being behaves this way, it's a modern LARP by kiddies
>>
>>726113013
It’s just block graphics, pretty standard for people who have no experience in model design. If the dev did it himself good job, if he paid someone to make them, RIP
>>
>>726112690
Is there some kind of ugliness competition going on that I don't know about? It seems like modern artist are trying to see who can come up with the worse art direction possible.

Agreed anon is a faggot for hyperfixating on "reddit spacing" and also a newfag because only newfags say that shit but imo it's indicative of his mindset as a whole, he wants to fit everyone and everything into a broad box and be done with it just like how he wants to cut this discussion about artstyles short by fitting *it* into a broad box by insisting it's just something vague and nonspecific and won't be please please please stop discussing it
He comes off as the type who is upset when he's not part of a discussion and is thus angry when a discussion is had about something he doesn't know much about because he can't not get involved, but also doesn't know, so he does this "ok it's X now everyone shut up and stop talking about it immediately, it's settled, i said it's X I said it's settled, shut up! Stop, I said. It's. Settled. Stooooooooooooooooop taaaalking!" thing that insecure yet attention seeking people do

TLDR He am become upset when we not about him

this has absolutely nothing to do with the argument ITT
every single game had low poly 3D models before 2003, but to say every one of these games had a low poly artstyle is to be the most retarded, dumbest, blackest nigger in this board's history

As a 3D modeler yes we did call half life low poly back in the day. Games stopped being mostly "low poly" when the unreal engine 3 was released.

This art style I would call "isometric, no texture, soft shaded soulless garbage"

so that's what's upsetting you? the fact that it's old and BACK THEN the term wasn't used, to it's not valid to use now? ok fair
pic rel is a modern low poly game, it's made low poly on purpose
does it look like OP's pic rel to you?
>>
>>726116049
correct, it's playstation 1 graphics style
it's different from low poly which is in OP's pic rel
and these two artstyles can exist separately, even though technically speaking your pic has a low poly model too. It has textures, unlike OP's pic rel.
Does that make sense to you?

Did you know that camels didn't exist in bible times? It's true, they were never around
Yeah we had something that looked like this, and it was a species similar to a modern day camel, but it wasn't a camel because they didn't use modern English back then so it wasn't called a camel, so camels weren't a thing, nope, never been, all those paintings and records of camels are a lie because it wasn't CALLED specifically "camel", so no such animal was around

fuck you for making me explain myself, first off
2016 was the year where every social media platform went completely fucking hard-left insane to the point of families ostracizing one another over whatever beliefs and opinions they had over the american president at the time,
reddit wouldn't take the facebook boomers, facebook wouldn't take the facebook boomers, all the shitty off-brand 'republicans only' treehouses weren't erected yet
where else are they to go but the internet's old reliable honeypot, the little stormfront, our very own /pol/? hundreds of thousands of the most tragically unfunny out-of-touch shit-eating old men you'll ever meet, here to stay

The art style doesnt really have a name.

Its a combination of cartoon bright colors and low poly imitation of cell shaded graphics that are typically made by amateur programmers who dont know how to recreate a hand drawn style.

I've seen it be called "indie shaded" "indie lowpoly" "low poly" or just "cell shaded(its not)"

Pretty much. Its not a very good. I appreciate a well done cartoony style like the Evil Genius Series.

I prefer the term "indie shaded" as its mostly unity games.
>>
>>726117201
Maybe it's just because I played so many indie games but calling it indie feels too broad, and insulting to indie as a whole, I don't perceive indie as a small little blip on the radar next to big corporate games so for me fixating on the indie part is like separating all other stores in the world from Walmart
Indies can be great, so many of them don't use it and this style isn't even unique just to indies
>>
>>726117340
Its not a negative towards indie games. Indie games (sometimes) try to innovate on gameplay and its generally at the cost of writing, visuals, or VA work.

Are there any AAA games that uses this art style?

low poly isn't just about the limit or amount of polygon on a model, it's about the intent, low poly is an art style, early 3D games aren't low poly, they just had low amount of polygons because of technological reasons, not because of intent

muder and manslaughter are different in the exact same way, and an afro american can also not be a nigger, but you, no matter the color of your skin, are a fucking nigger, nigger
