When the opportunity to make games look like movies presented itself, it was all over for the good ol' gaming. Photorealism made games look ugly, cheap and creatively bankrupt, with the ability to just scan someone’s mug and then turn it into the stuff of nightmares with bad shading and bamp maps and whatnot. The level design also degraded to “let’s just make a forest” and fill it with an anti soul gas. It also opened the floodgates for all the wannabe movie directors/writers, who now started using gaming as an outlet to compensate for their failed hollywood careers. Which, in turn, attracted the unwanted attention of the MSM and NPCs.Even now they will tell you that photorealistic graphics are better. Fuck photorealism. Fuck it up the ass.

>>750203364???FF15 chracters look anime as fuck. it's literlaly just the FF13 style but slightly more realistic. BARELY.
have always loved the gritty semi-realistic aesthetic of 2001-2007: FFX, FFXII, Silent Hill 2/3/4, MGS2, Siren, Resident Evil 4, Haunting Ground, Half-life 2, Dark Messiah. Gis moar

>>750203364I would say FF12 was an attempt at realism for its time and the result was a very well made artistic stylistic realism
>>750213981>FF12 was an attempt at realism for its timeEvery single texture in FF12 was hand-painted. It was the farthest thing from realism.
oh yea

>>750203364true but some games looking photoreal is fine, like Arma. It's just sad how many games do it now. But I also fucking hate the cel-shaded trend. So many fucking games that all look the same, and desu look like shit. Not all cel-shaded, but most of them. It feels incredibly lazy to me.
>>750203364the games going for a photorealistic art direction in the last 5 years can be counted on one handare you one of those goytendies who thinks twilight princess has photorealistic art design
Fortnite graphics are also very generic now. Muh photorealism is not the only overdone thing these days. Games have like 3 different styles.

>>750203364Ff12 is an ugly fucking game. Also the "Haha the main plot barely involves any of the party members" shit might be cool for an indie game, it doesn't work for final fantasy
>>750203364I wish noctis and the blonde demon robot guy fucked.
