>art in video games is only getting worse>no one even notices or brings it up >it's only going to decline furtherBeing a visual vidya art appreciator is suffering
>>729164429zoom crashout post
It's sadHonestly the first row doesn't look bad, I wouldn't say it's a direct downgrade, just an attempt at different styles, even if the 2nd one is kinda foul it's still just expirimentalHell, even the 3D ones are attempting something newBut the last one is full blown "yeah we shatted the bed lmao"
MI3 has always been my favorite of all the games but how Guybrush looked always bothered me a little. The environments however are beautiful.
>>729164279Bottom is vastly better ingame, also the penis leg always looked bad>>729165401Not really comparable; both are going for completely different artstyles and Majora's mask never looked even half as cool as the promo art with the heavy black shading anyways
>>729166875They are absolutely comparable given that the choice of art subject matter is also part of art, BOTW/TOTK go for incredibly boring and generic subject matter and the artstyle is a reflection of that
>>729164176this is the fault of the "graphics don't matter" fags
>>729167251Right is actually better
>>729164176Monkey Island 3 looks amazing. Comparing it to 1's still images is a difference in style, not in quality
>>729170945lol no
>>729166001that's not gonna be the official cover it's going to have the iconic border art that came from 3
>>729173201Yes but it's just going to cut up the boring realistic style illustrations, GTA3's poster had cool grungy stylized illustrations to cut up
>>729164176MI6 has the ugliest artstyle in history
>>729164176it's cuz when they made the jump to 3D they had to start over
It's strange how people never seem to complain about anime in that way. Let's take One Piece as an example. The anime has been running for 27 years. Not only did the art style completely change, but everything is worse: the animation, colors, backgrounds, fluidity, combat, etc. You literally have one frame with half of a person's face for minutes where only their mouth moves across the whole screen in modern One Piece. And yet, people still consume and love it, pretending that it's still like the first 200 episodes. It's so cheaply made, but it's still so successful at the mainstream level that it's insane. In video games, you would call it slop. It's strange how this narrative about bad art changes as soon as it's anime.
>>729175678>It's strange how people never seem to complain about anime in that way.except they do, cel animation was vastly superior to digital
>>729175678The problem is that you're focusing on one very dedicated fanbase, /a/ absolutely does shit on modern anime aesthetics in general but going after individual IPs will have you fighting off rabid fanboys Outside 4chan no one notices that art declined in both games and anime, in fact they think it's better than ever thanks to resolution and framerate increases, SFX/VFX, realistic graphics etc, stuff that has fuck all to do with art
>>729175896Please post an example of people approving of the idea that modern One Piece sucks. Because I can only find examples of people roasting OP and calling him delusional, saying that he's just being nostalgic.
>>729176107>framerate increasesHow do normies not realize that 7 different real frames from hand-drawn animation are better than 24 fake frames from modern PC slop?
>>729177594>Yakub staring at the white woman
>>729164176at least he is still white
>>729176107>>729175678Just watch jungle de ikou
>>729164176Art styles change, sadly. For me Broken Sword 1 and 2 were absolute peak.
>>729174312I don't even mind the art style itself that much with its flat, pop-up paper aesthetic. It's just designs themselves that are ABHORENT.
>>729170945its more complicated but that doesnt make it more impressive
>>729178820even with a tracing crutch it still sucks more, sad
>>729178820Gets me every time
>>729164731This. You can tell there was effort to the 3d ones even if they don't look that great
>>729178820The dudes look cool tho it's the girls that give completely different vibes
>>729164176I mean this isn't good, it's ugly as hellbut I still vastly prefer it to the massive push towards photo-realism so many game studios demand.
>>729175678>It's strange how people never seem to complain about anime in that way.Have you never been to /a/? Old good new bad is posted all the time.>>729179467I kinda like this art style, would be good for a new IP.
>>729164176The original MI2 has the same graphical style as MI1, and it's fucking beautifulMI3 has a different art style, but it's not bad. I prefer 1 and 2 though.I haven't played the rest, but yikes
>>729188010>>729177594
says you
>>729188145What's with the smirks in the bottom image?
>>729171723Post the gameplay, faggot.Oh wait you don't care or else you would know how much better the newest Battletoads is of a game. Fuck it, she even is playable in fun a vertical level.
>>729187752>and it's fucking beautifulThe menu is soulless garbage.The characters look terrible.Only some backgrounds make are worth looking at for a bit and then turning back to remake loo.Your image is not even your own screenshot and instead someone elses image full of jpg artifacts you retarded poser baby.
>>729191116you are kvetching about gameplay in a thread about art, nigger.
>OP starts with in-game art>everyone else is just doing box art and promo art
>>729191236>The menu is soulless garbage.I like the menu with the icons. Overall the UI is not the best, but the graphical style of the game is still nice.>The characters look terrible.I think they're soulful but they're not the best part of the game>Only some backgrounds make are worth looking at for a bit and then turning back to remake loo.Yes, the background are great. I absolutely don't care for the remake's art style.>Your image is not even your own screenshot and instead someone elses image full of jpg artifacts you retarded poser baby.Yeah calm your tits you ape, I'm glad I was able to find a single one that had the correct fucking aspect ratio. Go and play the game instead of whining
>>729169701this is the only one in the thread where i like both. amano art is obviously better, but it is hard to live up to that legacy (to the point that i don't think amano himself even lives up to it anymore). image on right is still very beautiful.everything else in this thread is absolutely depressing.
>>729170845graphics =/= art style
>>729191502Art is art
