>I want big budget pixel art games to make a comeback!HD-2D was a huge monkey's paw
>>729221015i thought it was funny op
>>729221015I hope HD-2D dies, but I feel like they'd just replace it with something more or equally shitty
>>729221015I can't stress enough how much i hate HD-2D. It's such a phony anachronistic style that makes no sense either to retro game fans or people who see it with fresh eyes, that i assume is solely motivated by 3D assets being cheaper rather than any artistic intent
>>729221015>what I wantedyour mom might care
HD-2D won
>>729221015NES GAME REMADE IN UNREAL ENGINE
Like all art styles, 2D HD can be done well but it just isn't.
>>729221403Why? Most hd-2d remasters are amazing. Look at FF pixel remasters, they're fucking kino.
>>729221806The pixel remasters aren't HD-2D
>>729221015For me, it's GONG
>>729221632hd2d is an aesthetic in itself. people happen to like it, even though >we don't.i think it's ok.i'd rather play the OGs on real cartridges any day, but hd2d is likely not going away, because people are clearly buying those games
We just had Terminator 2 with Henk Nieborg as the lead artist, things may yet turn around
>>729222372Looks pretty good, is there a duology of movies about it that I could watch?
>>729222413No but there's a six movie saga and a 31 episode long TV series
>>729222413Yeah
>>729222507Don't you lie to me>>729222508Thanks I'll give them a watch
>>729222508Added to my list.
>>729222508>cyber tracker 2
>>729221849I was a basic bitch, so I just loved playing as Max. Game was definitely one of my favorites out of the ones I just happened to get carts for as a kid, and amongst the GBC library as a wholeFuck Axe niggers though
>>729221015It wouldn't be so bad if they'd just stop adding motion blur, bloom and depth of field.I played Octopath Zero against my better judgement and when you're out in your own town you can barely see anyone's face, because the light is so goddamn bright and it just turns everyone's skin into a fucking lightbulb.And when I entered the first town, they did this cinematic shot of it, except I couldn't see a damn thing, because everything but a single random building at the front was blurry because of DoF.
>high fidelity background>unchanged PSX pixel characteri'm beyond disappointed
>>729221793I hate this shit.smothering pixel art in bloom, aggressive dynamic shading and other unreal engine slop ruins it.At the same time this is not good 3D low poly either.It ruins both art styles.
>>729221015What you want is Vanillaware games.
>>729221015Octopath has beautiful pixelart though, in any segment that are not the overworld parts.
>>729225181what i want is natsume
>>729221015Compare Live a Live with Star Ocean 2. It's not the style, it's the cheapness of the company.
No one understand the immersion a consistent visual style provides anymore
>>729227224I don't care about immersion. I like HD2D because it looks cool.
>>729227301You're a dumbass
>>729225260that question mark vulnerability is my cock btw
>>729225152How does it ruin the pixel art? You do know the artists back in the 80s and 90s didn't draw that shit intending for you to see the sharp pixel outlines right? It was drawn in a way that would blur on your CRT display, basically relying on post processing effects
>>729227978Says the nigger that needs to be fooled into a sense of being within a world in order to enjoy it
>>729221015Sex With Speed
>>729229297Third world fingers typed this post
>>729221015op has to mock up video games to get mad at. sad.
>>729230438Yes, they did indeed type your post
>wastes 10 years on a party game
>>729221015Dotemu is doing fine.
>>729221015Heh the cat and dog top right.
>>729221806That's just the originals but updated to run on new systems and with high res menus and particle effects, at least that's what I saw looking at a video from 5's pixel remaster.
>>729221975I mean, sure, but it's an aesthetic that is derived from a style that was used due to particular limitations so it feels very strange to see it used in a way that doesn't even attempt to match. I'd even be less irritated by it if the resolution of the overall image was consistent with the resolution of the sprites... but then I guess it wouldn't be HD-2D>>729225143SO2R really could have one with redrawn sprites in a somewhat higher resolution at the very least
>>729221793looks great idk why people sperg out over this. Like yeah I think I still prefer full 2d but this isn't bad or anything, it's like a different take on the paper mario artstyle
>>729221015i don't want them to touch power quest with a 10-foot pole, the game is already perfect, they would just ruin it
>>729227224what incentive is there for them to? niggercattles buy disgusting discordant ugly slop like jeet33 no matter what anyways
