soul vs soulless
>>738156815Fallout 3 had so much soul
>>738157493green filter was soul
>>738156815>>738157493>>738157553Right is better. While the green hue gives the world a sickly, irradiated feel, the clear blue sky serves as a poignant reminder that even though the surface is completely fucked and will remain in this state for thousands of years, the Earth still chugs along, same as it has for millions of years.
>>738156815>>738157493>>738157553I fucking love huffing soul gas bros.
>>738157785You will never be a woman.
>>738157785i don't understand how people see colors and just make up attributes for it
>>738157785It's soul though
Soulless
>>738156815piss vs pissless
>>738157992Colours have associations, anon. Consciously or otherwise, you recognize these associations. A green gas cloud probably smells bad, but a pink gas cloud is fairy dust or an aphrodisiac or some magic shit. Grey, overcast skies are dreary and apathetic, while clear, bright skies are vast and hopeful.
Why didn't they just make the skies green instead of applying a filter to everything?
>>738158610Easier to just put a half transparency olivegreen.jpg in front of the screen than to actually change any textures.
>>738158372you're just making things up again
>>738158610>why is Bethesda retarded
>>738157785>right is better because it tells a different storyyou sound like a localizer.
>>738158610Green tint is not even in the entire game it's only in the city areas of the game
>>738158778Did none of that make sense to you? Do you know what connotations are? Don't be retarded.>>738158824I don't claim my preference is superior to the devs' in any objective capacity, unlike lolcowlizers. I understand the value of preserving artistic intent. I just think that a Fo3 with blue skies and neutral-gray terrain portrays the Capital Wasteland as less sickly and unfamiliar, and makes it feel more inert and realistic. I find that more interesting, if not preferable, personally.
>>738156815Makes one nostalgic for the skies of Delhi...
>>738160150Fallout is not india though
>>738160060>Did none of that make sense to you?no. because i never experienced any of it.>Do you know what connotations are?things someone made up and you just blindly go along with.
>>738162270Connotations are partially made-up associations, but that doesn't mean they're random, useless or mutually unintelligible. Money, laws, and morality are all made up, but you likely have a good understanding of why we have bank accounts, prisons, and a demarcation between good and bad, and can rationalize why these things are useful. Connotations emerge because colors, shapes, and sounds (see: the bouba-kiki effect) recur in real-world contexts (nature, the human body, etc.), so they accumulate emotional associations:>green often represents fertility and life (plants), but also illness and sickliness (bile, poison, and mold)>blue often represents clarity (clear skies), coldness (ice), and stillness (water)These connotations are almost universal, but they can also be shaped by culture and personal experiences. If you keep pretending that the color green has no connotations, you may as well claim the green filter adds nothing to the game's visuals, which is demonstrably false. Bethesda chose to add the green filter because its "green-ness" changed something about the look of the game that brought it closer to matching their vision. I think they intended to make the Capital Wasteland look more alien and grotesque, and given the color green's connotations, that's not a baseless interpretation.>i never experienced any of itYou definitely have. You share these associations whether you're aware of it or not. I guarantee that you associate gray with apathy, blue with sorrow, and rainbows with fags. Quit feigning ignorance.>[connotations are] things someone made upNobody woke up one day and decided red should connote anger. You're retarded.
>>738164709>green often represents fertility and life (plants), but also illness and sickliness (bile, poison, and mold)this is contradictory which is why i don't understand.>You're retarded.rude
>>738164869>this is contradictory which is why i don't understandConnotations aren't 1:1, but that doesn't mean they're random or baseless. It's not a contradiction so much as it's different from case to case. The use of other visual elements can tease out the desired connotation.
>>738156815Sneaking through the Fallout 3 wasteland at night was the highlight of 2008 for me pure atmosphere and dread Thank God I got a refund on that dog shit Far Cry 2 game

>>738157992>>738158778>>738162270>>738164869I think you're just autistic anon
>>738166076I think he's either genuinely retarded or ragebaiting personally
>>738157992You maybe a little autistic if you can't correlate fucking radiation with green, mister nash.
>>738166076i've never seen green stinky gas. have you?
>>738166181i've never seen green radiation.
