>Hardware Specs improve>Latest game looks worse than the previous one did on weaker hardwareSo this is happening to Nintendo now too?And by the next generation their games will look as soulless as today's game's made by EA, Ubisoft, Activision, Microsoft, Sony, Capcom etc.?
>>744718821>previous game ran at 540p>even had terrain warping to hit that unstable 30>now game targers 1440p or whatever>all power gained is lost to resolution jumpSharpness is important and I think graphics have peaked, so I'm not really complaining, but I get that xenoblade is a series that always punched above its weight and Genesis looks rather mundane
>>744718821fits with the cheap mobile game character designs
weak hardware:>rendering objects at a distance isn't feasible so in order to create a world that feels large you have to employ trickery or paint detailed skyboxespowerful hardware:>employing trickery or painting elaborate skyboxes is no longer necessary because you can just render extremely low fidelity versions of the actual level geometry and pretend that the player won't notice that it looks like garbage
>>744719760>powerful hardware>shitch 2
>>744719960good job pretending not to understand the point, ranjid
>>744718821Xenoblade is my favorite franchise, but after the shitshow that was 3 (except Future Redeemed, which was good), I just can't get excited for Genesis. The generic character design looks like ass and so do the graphics in general.
>>744720256Am I missing something? Xenoblade 3 was kino. Much better than 2
>>744718821All Xenoblade games are ugly. I'm replaying 2 right now and it's amazing that a game with so many grassy fields, has butt ugly grass and dogshit draw distance for it. Also the character designs are largely shit, with some exceptions.
>>744719960>Macaco post-59375 karma to ziony btw fraid so
ugly female MC, brown male lead and generic hyper puritan designs, what could possibly go wrong? xenoblade veilguard let's go!!!
>>744720294No point in talking about XB3 in /v/ anon. Discord troons will act as if the game itself is the work of satan or something.
>>744720256tbf xc3 gas generic character designs too, but the characters themselves were good. well at least the main cast. the fucking a-z dudes were fucking horrible and the fat kid is the worst character that's ever been in a xc game.anyway idk I think what makes genesis look unappealing is the characters in combination with what looks like environments that little care was put into
>>744720712the designs wouldn't be a problem if they didn't somehow still look like generic anime instead of more grounded
>>744718821No one wears hot outfits like in XC2.All safe shit
>>744721123>but the characters themselves were goodThey were a mixed bag.Eunie was good, Noah and Mio were alright (although the weakest lead pair of the trilogy). Lanz, Sena and Taion were shit.
>>744721347the only character that was shit was Sena imo
>>744718821>Latest game looks worse than the previous one did on weaker hardwareWhy do you have to be a little lying bitch?
>>744718821The grass is significantly higher quality and so is the draw distance, older games could cull distant terrain when it was hidden, the terrain doesn't hide as much, you look up and the rest of the wolrd is there, it's very different, the only real disappointment are the clouds.
>>744721347Taion is unironically the best character after Noah. You just hate him because he's a nigger.>>744721417Lanz was bit undercooked, but he still had his moments. Sena was stuck with the short end of the stick. Her own fucking episode wasn't even about her.
>>744719960wow it was an eric thread all along who could had predicted that
>>744720294It is but gachaniggers seethe at this fact harder than the fact they aren't white
>>744720294It had a black character so
>>744727074which is sad because she's easily the hottest of the group
>>744719753>cheap mobile game character designsThey're more like western designs. If they were mobile game designs they'd have extremely intricate overly detailed costumes. Instead they look like mundane NPCs you'd see milling about the starting town.
shit trolling asides I also expected a bit better graphics, but the Shit 2 is still a shitty nvidia tablet, just a bit better than the last one, and this still might just be the first videogame ever made that lets you see the entire world all at once which is pretty crazy when you think about it. Open world games usually have the advantage of hiding most of their world behind the horizon but Genesis won't get this luxury at all, you just see everything at once, that's super cool even if the stuff at the other side of the world is low poly.
>>744728058kys eric
>>744728160not your boogeyman.
>>744727870>Instead they look like mundane NPCs you'd see milling about the starting town.Hopefully they get actually adventuring costumes once they get ejected from the school
>>744718821I dunno what you're talking about. It's way more detailed than 3, and the character rendering is even better.
>>744724353They also don't cull grass close to the camera now which is something that really annoyed me about 3.
>>744718821The characters designs are honestly awful and generic.
>>744730021the cope is that it's just for the prologue. Hopefully..
>>744719596switch 2 games are not 1440p they are 720p or 1080p
>>744721347The fuck are you talking about. Lanz and Taion were great, Sena would have been great if they actually let her do anything.
>>744718821Its not ugly, its just generic. Nothing about it grabs attention, world, characters weapons, nothing.
What's with 2fags attacking all other games lately?
>>744733816genesis isn't xenoblade
>>744718821>This game looks fucking uglyNo it doesn't. It looks incredibly stylish. Both in the visual rendering and depiction of things, but also conceptually interesting visuals such as the inverted globe earth and other ideas and designs.
>>744735703>It looks incredibly stylishHOLY DELUSION
>>744735836Yeah. As if the opinion of a guy who has very blatantly shat on every single Xenoblade game while dishonestly pretending to be a true fan and only hating whatever game is the newest one. It's so blatantly and transparently clear that you just hate all of the games or maybe even videogames broadly.
>>744736263even nips are complaining about genesis's character design, this game is getting delayed
>>744718821It looks good though, it looks very good, especially for a game this size
I remembered when /v/ said that 3 would kill xenoblade, and now we are here with /v/ saying the same shit but with genesis
>>744719596>>744719753>>744720256>>744720712>>744721123Enelcord isnt gonna like this thread. All of /v/ is si anti hype for Genesis
>>744720256For me, it was 2 that killed the franchise to bring in gooners and gacha niggers. I skipped 3 but this looks like a reboot so I’m excited to try it out
>>744720712OMG thisssss!!! LFGGGGF xenoblaxe concord!!!!
>>744720712>xenoblade veilguardGeeeeeggg!!! Imma steal this, love your moxie based anonchad
>>744720712Based anon BTFOing this genesis slop with surgerial pracsion.
>>744720712>>744736851Lulz, do you think theres gonna be scene where the ugly pink mc says>Sooo.... Im nonbinary.....
I can just tell the enelchuggacord HAAAAATEEESSSS this thread keeeeeeeeeek!>>744736973You just know there will be lolz
What is 4chan's most hated game of 2027 and why is it Xenoblade Valegarde?
>>744737126I was gonna point out some western game that is more hated but no I just realised Xenoblade Veilguard mogs them all in terms of shitness lel
is this 0/10 rage bait? the game looks phenomenal
>>744718821Reminder that Nintendo laid of 90% of Monolith soft staff after XCXDE and XC3 flopped and were widley hated by fans.
>>744737252This thread is bait yeah, the guy who always posts about "/v/'s most hated game of (year)" is a known schizo.But we haven't seen much of Genesis, isn't it a bit premature to say it looks phenomenal?
>>744736481Not /v/, just the schizos.
>>744738964the art style is just wonderful
>>744738964It’s more of a first impression thing from the style and rendering tech.Similarly I don’t think you need more than a glance to tell when a game’s really ugly.
>>744718821Graphics dont matter as long as it looks good in its own art style. The gameplay and mechanics systems matter more for it to be fun and engaging.
>>744740662My first impression is that there won't be loading screens once you're in-game (unless you fast travel, of course). Anywhere you can see in that sphere, you can go there without interruption. That's the kind of tech I think they were subtly showing off.
