Phasing out CRTs did untold damage to video game history and pixel art as an artform, not dissimilar to the Scots wikipedia incident They may never recover
Rights better
Okay just put a filter thenI don't ever want to go back to the eyerape and earrape that are CRTs
>>737583242soulless vs soul. crts are for uncs
>>737583623A filter wouldn't help you with this
>>737583242A retro game with good pixel art will look good regardless of what display technology you use.
>>737583242How more threads do you plan on making with this exact post?
>>737583786just turn black frame insertion on on your oled. literally does the same thing it even flickers like your crts.
Right looks better.
>>737583242This CRT cult always act like everyone was gaming on a 50" flat screen with high quality scart when in reality the vast majority was only seeing a blurry mess with their rca cables on a 14"Also most games weren't made with this color blending in mind, no wonder it's always the same few games on those examples
>>737583242Nah, more and more people are figuring out you gotta at least use a shader. It's just zoomers who grew up with raw pixel emulators who are resistant to the change. Gen Alpha will use shaders.
>>737584009>This CRT cult always act like everyone was gaming on a 50" flat screen with high quality scart when in reality the vast majority was only seeing a blurry mess with their rca cables on a 14"It was neither of those things. Lurk more.
>>737584009OP’s image is RCA cable composite thoughDoes that look like a blurry mess to you?
>>737583242You weren't meant to sit 2 inches from the screen.
>>737583242left is so blurryit's bad
crt has virtually no input lag and blurit's why games felt alive. your control was instantaneous and immersive
>>737584531any decent monitor doesnt have it either
>>737583242>Scots wikipedia incident???
>>737583242CRT monitor doesn't have scanline thoughever
>>737584774Years ago some brony went on the Scots version of Wikipedia and made a bunch of articles without knowing the language, and got away with it for years.
>>737584774Some burger kid spent years writing thousands of Wikipedia articles in "Scots" by slurring English words into an offensive Scottish accent, now it's hard to tell what's reals Scots and what the kid invented, LLMs were trained on it etc
>>737583242I too play games with my face 1 cm from the screen and not in idiotic comfortable distance of ~1 meters away when those differences you shizo about are non existent
anyone have the zelda 2 "what you remember vs what it actually looks like"comparison image
>>737583242Don't care. Still playing with raw pixels. Fuck your meme shaders and tube TVs.
>>737583623you're too old to hear the crt wine anymore (it happened to me)
>>737585178
>>737583242Okay. Have fun buying a 200 lb TV, original hardware, original games, original cables, and maintaining it all in perpetuity, not to mention keeping it with you whenever you move. Keep the flame alive, I guess, but I don't care enough.
>>737585267And youre the type to call modern games soulless
>>737585497>Have fun buying a 200 lbSo youre just weak is your main point
>>737585417What retro actually looked like can be done if you have a 4k TV
>>737583242The left is blurry, dark, and turned her eyes black. You also can’t see the jewel on her chest, it’s just gone.
>>737583786Quite the contrary, there are shaders for this now. They just need at least 240hz to be effective, and 960hz to be optimal.
>>737585417Now post the RF version.
>>737583242Pixel art was ALWAYS a product of technological limitations.If we had high resolution displays back when video games were first made, developers and artists would have absolutely just used high resolution images instead of pixel art for graphics.
>>737583242Everyone's TV was different, there was no standard back then. I used to play NES on 15" TV from 1975 (you had to screw in the little hooks) and everything looked blurry and the outer glass was so convex (bulged outward) you couldn't see anything in the corners of the screen.The only real consistent good look was from arcade machines that all pretty much used the same monitors and are what the developers used to make the art on originally.
>>737586657I had no idea that aperture grilles and shadow mask were distinct technologies that existed until I got curious about shaders To me my shitty CRT way back was just a tube that played my nes gameos
>>737583242Back to /vr/ faggot
>>737583242Idk, I like right.
Now view the same screens from actual, natural viewing distance.
>dude if you zoom in 1000x it looks blurry instead of pixel-y!!!
>>737587217You're a PC fat, you sit 5 inches away from your screen
>>737583623I hate when modern pixel art games add a filter option even though the artist didn't make it with CRTs in mind so it just looks blurry
>>737585417Why do you use that as an example for retro games when it's an old game, not a retro one?
Bought a chinkheld and started playing some Fire Emblem romhacks on it with a filter to make the colors darker + scanlines and I gotta say, it looks excellent on the small screen.I was never into filters because I usually played at like 2x the size on my PC, but on a screen that is about the same size as the original GBA, I really like them.
>>737583962>literally does the same thingIt doesn't. It's getting closer and closer, but we're not there yet.
>>737584307Yes.
Can you still get them from goodwill, or did they all get thrown out
>>737583242If I stand up and walk about a meter or so back from my monitor they both look about the same
>>737594852Worse, they're getting scalped by boomers and are being resold a "retro gaming sets" for over a hundred bucks. I see basic ass coaxial only sets from the 80s on Facebook. The "I know what I got" meme is real and becoming more and more common.
>>737594941If i stand back 10 feet 480p and 4K look the same!
>>737595262I just saw a 2000s CRT with matching stand on fb marketplace in DFW for $50 you can still find stuff Boomers are dying off
>>737596241You CAN still find stuff but it's getting harder.
>>737583720kek
>>737591512Because when people use that word they mean "things that are old" and not "things trying to look old". You can thank magazines and blogposts constantly describing things as retro for that.
Omg the blurry pixel machine makes pixels blurry??? It's like magick!
>>737583242>blow the pixels up to 10x their native size>"WHOA WHY DOES THIS LOOK BAD??"
>>737583242crtrannies raped and gaped
>>737599663>>737599734samefag
>>737589524all crt shit looks blurry.
>>737583242CRT is not magic, dummy-kun.A good game will look good regardless.
>>737599734they need their radiation bro
>>737583242The Scots wikipedia incident is so fucking funny that its worth whatever it destroyed.
why doesnt retroarch have a simple preset shader that applies the CRT effect, distortion from the s-video or composite cables AND the color grading from the processing of the tv or whateverand if it does why isnt it crt-royale
>>737583242"Scots" (known as Ynglis for 99.999999% of history until the rise of the Scottish independence movement) is a fake language.
>>737599734Shouldn't this be the other way around?
>>737600518no? normal people play things at proper zoom and resolution. crtrannies always post retarded comparison images that are ALWAYS way too zoomed in. crtrannies are extremely disingenuous and pretentious.
>>737586026Don't even bother, there are still people on this board that think anything over 144Hz is a "scam," and that was after years of them thinking anything more than 60hz was a "scam." 1Khz OLEDs are just a few years away thankfully. CRTs will finally be fully mogged in every aspect.
I'm fucking around with Bezel shaders, looks fine enough
>>737583720Heh
>>737600746>crtrannies always post retarded comparison images that are ALWAYS way too zoomed inFrom my experience it's always coming from the other side so yeah, it should be the other way around.
>>737583786do you guys have any other examples, maybe games that people would actually PLAY, or is it just this one little alien faggot?
>>737583242>Phasing out CRTs did untold damage to video game historyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VT30zxoKA8People went from 0 frames of input lag to fucking 10 frames on the PS3 - 100/150ms just from the controller and then another 2-3 from their terrible LCD/plasma displays.
>>737583242Honestly I would say widescreen did a bigger number on vidya, 2d platformers had to adapt super hard and aren't really the same
>>737601009damn, you must be retarded then.the only other explanation is that you're lying and being disingenuous right now, but that would also mean that you're retarded.
>>737583242Lmfao you retards bitch about TAA but suck dick of CRT. It blurs the image, the only thing it improves upon is there is no ghosting.
>>737601263The lack of ghosting/motion blur on a CRT is what makes them so nice, yes. It is much easier to track a target even on a lower refresh rate because of it. But modern OLED is already pretty good and is only getting better.
>>737583242>480i
