why are modern indie devs obsessed with psx graphics?
They are relatively easy to make and it looks good. It's far better than chasing realistic graphics.
>>748602103Troons have autism which usually has arrested development as a comorbidity
>>748602103This looks sweet.
please be have sex feature
>>748602103Game?
>>748602103I wanna scrape the cheese from between that girls toes and surgically graft it to the inner lining of my nostrils
>>748602103agp-coded character
>>748602103Timeless, you don't really need any better for a games like that.
>>748602165You see a game about a female elf and the 1st thing that comes to your mind is trannies and their mutilted genitals...you are a huge faggot.
>>748602103In theory. It's a lot like pixel art. Most people don't know how to make it look good. But plebs and normies are willing to overlook the shoddy work, because they don't expect much from it in the first place, and don't really understand the art form.
>>748602297please andastan tourists are mindbroken
>>748602103>>748602302The thing that gets under my skin, is that I had to endure people calling every pixel art game "pixelshit", and being hyper critical of pixel art. But everyone is way more chill about low poly for some reason. It can be some of the worst low poly you've ever seen in your life, and they'll be like "wow, so nostalgic and timeless". Like where did the standards go?
looks nice but please stay in /agdg/ and take Cris and those other two faggots with you
>>748602385Bad pixel art is far worse than bad low poly models.
>>748602103Same reason why pixel art 2D games based on the SNES were popular before this. The people who grew up with those consoles now are at an age where they can start making games themselves, naturally they'll try to emulate what they considered the greatest generation of gaming, which is what they grew up with.
>>748602297>you see a tranny and the first thing that comes to your mind is a trannyshock
>>748602165t.
>>748602103anon you could've just made a dev thread if you wanted to share more
>>748602165You are new to 4chan LOL
>>748602165i wonder who proclaims "x thing is for trannies" more, actual trannies or this board
>>748602418Objectively untrue. Low poly relies on pixel art for its textures. So you actually have to be a decent pixel artist, and a decent 3D artist both.I can take the same exact pixel art that people called shit, and slap it on a 3D plane, and the plebs will call it kino.
>>748602495tranny spam is from 2016+ posters who are newfags by default
>>748602103low poly and pixel art are nostalgic and nostalgia sells.
>>748602454got a snort out of me
>>748602165This really upset the troon op
>>748602604newfag samefaggingyou are an embarrassment
PSX didn't look like that, not even remotely
>>748602529This.
>>748602635Why is this troon acting like this?
>>748602518There's a significant difference in pixel art characters and props and pixelized textures. Sure a skilled artist can do wonders with pixelized textures but you can still get away with much more in textures compared to full pixel art. Plus there are tools that allow you to pixelize more sophisticated materials letting you use more modern workflows and still make retro inspired art. There really isn't anything like that for pure pixel art other than generative ai
>>748602717Because an anon saw right into their shriveled soul and shot a broadside against them accurately. Posting meximoot is hilarious as a response to them calling everyone new.
>>748602717mad 2016+er BAKA my head
>>748602103how risque can you get with cute girl games before being banned by payment processors?Is there a place you wont get banned?
>>748602685PS1 games looked like this actually
>>748602103Tranny aesthetics are interlinked with denpa culture which has to do with things like neon Genesis evangelion and lain. Ps1 was the dominant gaming platform at the time so it ends up being attached to it. I'd argue the low poly stuff having low visual fidelity synergizes well with the feeling of being fragmented and mentally divergent. The other thing is that it's popular and profitable right now if you get the marketing right
>>748602103It takes more talent and effort to make a indie game with vtmb or deus ex tier graphics.
>>748602754>Posting meximoot is hilarious as a response to them calling everyone new.Def top zozzle material.
>>748602798this is AI
>>748602818This reads identically to Australian government figures thinking video games are a societal cancer.
>>748602978Its just a translation patch of a game with 3x3 ft environments. Look at the webm closely, the actual area th characters are in is only about 20 ft wide with the rest all being skybox in the background. The background also sits like an inch behind the 20 foot playable area. Remember being in elementary school and making a diorama in a shoebox? That is what this game is that is why it can look good for a ps1 game.
>>748602103because 2000s fad
>>748602718>but you can still get away with much more in textures compared to full pixel art.Or much less, rather. The standards for low poly textures are so low, they're through the floor.>Plus there are tools that allow you to pixelize more sophisticated materials letting you use more modern workflows and still make retro inspired artThat exists in pixel art. There are normal maps, dynamic lighting systems, and color cycling to name a few. However, when it's used, people complain about it.
>>748602103this is NOT ps1 graphics lmaops1 is cubes on top of cubes
>>748603071Not sure what that means but if you familiarize yourself with denpa media the ps1 fixation makes a lot more sense
>>748603151Also worth comparing and contrasting with the zoomer obsession of liminal spaces and how that relates to uncanny early 3d graphics. It's all connected pretty logically unlike some people think
>>748603135>he never player ape kino
AI can make Gamecube graphics now.https://x.com/KalayaanInt/status/2103842365316481396Indies are just lazy cucks.
>>748602891>>748602754Honestly meximoot might be an even better oldfag tell. Theres no way the election tourists would get it right?
>>748602529So much this #truke
>>748603289That is why anon posted, to show he is giga oldfag. It is the perfect counter to someone saying you are new because it will invariably show that the anon calling you new is too new to know if our guy got his diploma or not.
>>748602103>what if Link was a girl
>>748602103It looks decent with minimal amount of work. Their laziness is efficiently processed.
>>748602103This looks like a game that will do well
>>748602798far too smooth to be a ps1 game
>>748603263that looks like shit
What terrible samefagging.
>>748602978newfag
>>748602442That little girl has a dick?
>>748603597Go to bed dragonirian.
>>748602825vtmb is a terrible game but the graphics were pretty great. You have to know how to handpaint textures for this era of games, for the characters at least, which is too hard for your average indie hack that needs a tutorial for everything.
>>748602103Why are you always bitching about this instead of playing games with aesthetics you like?
>>748603256GOTCHA!
>>748603581
>>748603263reminds me of that gamecube game with the tiny metal robot dude
>>748603126No I mean I can use a textured material like fur, dirt, metal etc in substance and then pixelize it to make a texture that works well with low poly meshes. It's not perfect and you can get more intricate and detailed results with manual texture painting but it works quite well. There really isn't something like that in pixel art because the texture and the model are essentially the same thing even if you're going about it in a strange way that makes it technically not the case.>Or much less, rather. The standards for low poly textures are so low, they're through the floorAbsolutely, some games even have limited or no textures and there's a sweet spot for janky or even ugly textures. Pixel art generally needs to be pretty decent, I can't think of many examples of successful games with pixel art most people would think is shit while I could name several low poly games where the textured are straight up ugly.
>>748602297That's a game about a child.Made by a pedo.Put 1 and 1 together, genius.
>>748602103More like why they are obsessed with women. Its not selling its transgender obsession
>>748603712I love VTMB. The combat isn't very good but the dialogue options and exploration are great
>>748602685It kinda reminds me of MM Legends
>>748602103That doesn't look like a ps1 game, does look good though. Modern "good looking" games are so ugly and colorless
>>748602103>why are modern indie devs obsessed with psx graphics?Why are you obsessed with modern graphics? The game you posted looks wholesome and if it is fun to play what is the problem here?
hella unnecessary
Literally, unironically, without a shadow of a doubt: trannies
>>748604109you wouldn't complain if it was male
>>748603256Hated those stupid monkies.
>>748603712>terrible gameThe only thing that can give this opinion would be the combat. The game itself is rough on the edges but is a cult classic for a reason. If it was absolutely terrible, then the rats in Paradox wouldn't have made the shitty sequel.
>>748603872Chibi Robo. >>748603581Cope and seethe Troon.
>>748602103Is this an H-game? Where's the gock?
>>748602442>>748603948Soiteens aren't even trying anymore
Anyone indie dev who can faithfully replicate this timeless art style is both rare and has genuine good taste. I have high hopes their game will be good.
>>748604336>that looks like shit
Uh oh, AI jeet melty

>>748602103Why does it cost 10 gems for the statue to heal you? It is a statue, what does it need gems for? It feels kinda stingy and may alienate players who prefer to hoard the gems for other purposes and then they may die because they didn't want to pay a statue of an angelic figure to heal them. I guess what my autistic ass is trying to say is that it would fit better for gameplay and context reasons for the statue to heal you for free. Or maybe the game gives you a shitload of gems and 10 gems are nothing, but still I think it would be best if the angel statue healed you for free.
>>748604691I dont think you can say this just by seeing a 5 second clip
>>748602165SPBPgot trannies fuming
>>748604691Do you really need free healing that you can abuse and rely on?
>>748604761>>>/soijakparty/
>>748604316yeah that guy!
>>748602798why does arale have a life bar?
>>748604738Yeah fair enough, as I said maybe the game gives you a lot of gems, idk>>748604767Yes, I am quite the shitter at videogames so I enjoy when the game gives you free healing so I can indulge in continuing to be a shitter instead of getting gud
>>748604801tsmt sista, bigots dont belong on 4chan
>>748604561Only faggots and third world monkeys hate AI.
>>748602165That's it I'm going back to 8moe
I love pixelslop and polygonslop. I love video games that look like they were made by one guy in his mom's basement. I love games made by people who learned how to draw a month ago.
>>748603581>>748604336what the fuck is wrong with you retards
>People who shit on my slop are the REAL third worlders! Also they're gay so therefore you must like AI!lol there it is, next up is calling everyone a 'luddite' and spamming their AI slop image gens out of pure desperation and asshurt
>>748604912Ironic when soijakparty is filled with trannies
>>748602103It's a cycle that repeats roughly once a generation: A generation tries to elevate the cheapo novelty medium that was formative for them to a higher tier of respectability.Penny dreadfuls, comics, movies, videogames, pixelshit, PSX graphics, etc.Rehashing 90s shit is just millennials doing the same thing even though Silent gen trannies did their best to prevent this from happening because it would be problematic for governments if this became a widespread phenomenon.
>>748605118so you think trannies are a bad thing? get away from here you transphobic chud>>>/soijakparty/
>>748602798>all those textboxes to teach you one actiondamn games used to suck
>>748603948Loli is a straight man's fetish.
>>748604559its the clothes sticking to the cunt.
>>748604109True, but I would lie if I said I didn't appreciate it.
>>748602103something pisses me off about copying ps1 graphics but not adding in the weird wobble
>>748603662Literally who
>>748605218>trannyphobe should go to the tranny placeSharty admin offinf himself really fucked you guys
>>748602103>why are modern indie devs obsessed with psx graphics?Trendiness combined with accessibility. Low fidelity "retro" graphics are low-cost both in terms of effort and manpower while being able to bank on nostalgia instead of "grafix suck cuz poorshit indie dev."
>haha look I made an indie game! It kinda looks like a PS1 game, sooo nostalgic and retro! Let's pretend it's a real game from the 90s!>haha look I made a game, it kinda looks like an n64 game lmao! I call it "My Game 64", get it?rape every single indie developer that does this shit.

Threads like these are made and maintained so that the site looks more active that It actually is
>>748605352Sharteens hate loli and think associating it with troons (like they do with anime by yelling tranime all the time) will make people hate it, they hate it (and japan) so much they keep trying to get people arrested over it. The irony is they spam real CP all the time but don't see any problem with that. I bet the recent supreme court ruling that ai loli is legal really set them off.

>>748603263I WANT TO FUCK THAT ROBOT
>>748605415isnt the wobble actually hard to emulate because its technically a glitch/limitation of how the PS1 did 3d?
>>748602798Textures are too detailed. This is more like gamecube era than ps1.
>>748602103what game?
>>748602103Is this a real game or ai made slop?
To help obscure their lack of talent. They can just hide behind the veil of artistic choice. Every single psx style game I have tried has been complete shit.
>>748606365Frogun was pretty good
>>748605964she's in db though
>>748606380I got that one in a bundle somewhere but never booted it up. My expectations are low because of the "people" I see hyping it up.
>>748606365that's true but there isn't anything wrong about covering your lack of skill with such choices. Making games already takes a fuck ton of work.
>look through the dev's social media>see thissigh...
>>748606583>saving polygons by only modeling flat chestsBig brain.
>>748606583can i have a link?
You guys wonder why you're depressed losers but refuse to reflect on the fact that perhaps covering yourself in 16 layers of irony just to get some retard riled up on the Internet everyday isn't mentally healthy.
>>748602103We're in the era where people who grew up with 5th gen games are now old enough to be making games. So they're making them in the style of stuff they loved as children.In another 10 year or so, indie games are all going to look like 6th gen games (ps2/gamecube/dreamcast).

>>748606807thanks
>>748606726Alright dev, I wishlisted your game. It better be pretty erotic
>>748603759Most of the modern posters here are bored, depressed, unironically live in a shithole slum in a 3rd world country and have nothing better to do than be angry about something all the time, which they've spammed so much they've convinced themselves it's site culture.
>>748602978>>748603562>>7486062202/2
>>748605293Devs honestly did not think players could intuit anything by themselves especially since it was early 3d. Well some devs still think that today LOL but games are more likely to demand more of the player now for the better
>>748602103Wrong fucking question. Correct question: Why arent the AAA devs obsessed with it? They could make some actual fucking banger games.
>>748604463>I have high hopes their game will be good.Because the graphics tickle your weird fetish?Get real. Threads of Fate wasn't even a great game back when it came out. (Though it has an excellent soundtrack).
>>748606365>if you can't make a whole game in 3D woth modern graphics not using unreal as a solo dev you're just hiding your lack of talentAAA shill
>>748606867>demand more>nowWhat bizarro world did you blow in from?
>>748606936There are many much more difficult games demanding better execution with little to no tutorialization produced in the last few decades expecting the player to already know how to move in a 2d/3d space without handholding them constantly. Let's just remember that 99% of games AREN'T snoy exclusives. The only thing the ps1 has to show for itself in terms of challenge is intentionally obtuse rpgs meant to sell guidebooks and shitty control schemes. Everything else is simple shit meant to ease early adopters in.
What an insane world we live in when zoomers call out real psx games for being AI fabrication. lmfao
>>748607125>little to noBasically every new game still gives you a tutorial on how to move and what every button does>snoyIt's not a snoy only issue, everyone still makes games for morons because if they didn't they would get tons more complaints than they do from people who hate everything being dumbed down and having tutorials everywhere
>>748607243Because 80% of the posters here don't play video games, they watch and read about them and then join in the discussion wihtout even touching a game
Behold, the antithesis of OP’s low-effort slop: something with SOVL.
>still hasn't finished his game>sovl
>>748607596Yeah but it is obviously your fetish. It carries it just like that one guy with the fatass redneck furry horror games about being kept down by The Man.

>>748606726>MoTran
>>748602103>psx graphicsretard
>>748602103Because its got a very unique and distinct style that looks so good even in 2026. Its timeless.
>>748607776Whats the issue anon? Ps1 was refered to as PSX a lot back then despite sony releasing that special ps2 called the psx because it had a video recorder in it.
>>748602103/agdg/ invaded SAGE and I won't forgive them for this
>>748607861Why are loliges just so superior to everything else
>>748607848>a lot back thenI was one of those who called it PSX because PS1 sounded silly when it wasn't called the Playstation One and using just PS lead to confusion
>>748606894It's not just the graphics, its the aesthetics and style that can make a mediocre game still have soul. Music is also part of that. Megaman Legends probably the worst game in this style but still did the style the best. Threads of Fate played so much better but also did this style well. As long as the game gets the style right, it doesn't need much to make it good.
>>748602103nostalgia, same reason previous indie devs were obsessed with pixel graphics and future ones will be obsessed with ps2 graphics, and so on
