Whats a “ps2 aesthetic”?
>>
>>729405439
The aesthetic that occurred as a result of the specifications of the Playstation 2.
>>
>>729405439
i would say 3D games before it was insanely expensive so a bunch of literal who could make competent 3D games.
HD fucked the production cost and studios started playing super safe because of that.

>>729405439
No idea but i liked how games looked from 2000-2006-(late cut off) specifically. I wouldn't associate that with only with the playstation 2.

>slightly higher polygon count than N64
>textures made in a memory-efficient manner and which complements the lacking elements of the low-poly model
>all of it should fit within 32MB VRAM at any given time, and a basic shader here-or-there is OK but don't go crazy with them

You are retarded, there were no literal whos making major games back in those days. Teams were smaller but they were exclusively made up of very competent people with a lot of technical know-how. You also couldn't just go and develop a game off a basic consumer level PC so there was a significant hardware investment between console development kits and workstation computers.

Retard alert

everything surrounding the ps2 except the actual games
>>
>>729405439
Common factors of the PS2 aesthetic were
>polycount higher than lowpoly art as seen in PS1 games and their newer imitations but lower than photorealistic movie games everyone pushed for in the last 2-3 generations
>cleanly readable models and texture
>shaders and fog were used as part of creative vision rather than a technical crutch
>forward rendering 3D engines were the norm as opposed to today's more popular choices of deferred rendering or physically based rendering
>the use of strong contrast in colors and a generally more vibrant color palette which fell out of favor in later generations where games featured more washed out and muddled colors often caused by the use of post-processing effects
>a lot of PS2 games also shared the same methods of rending textures, shading models and environments and so on. The game dev world was smaller back then and options more limited so consoles felt like they had a more cohesive aesthetic even when the games were made by entirely distinct studios
>special shout out to the renderware engine which carried like half of the PS2 library on its back
>>
>>729405439
Not much what's a ps2 aesthetic with you?
