It's just baffling, do you think they made the games ugly on purpose to punish the complainers of the swsh era ? Like how they might've made the new megas ugly so people would stop asking for new ones ? It's not just a matter of development time or area size, the customization options are hideous, the character looks ten years old instead of looking 16-18 like in swsh, the main city is a nothing burger, and the textures and animations are worse in every way. The colors are muted and dull, the attempt at realistic hair texture with the anime faces is just jarring, and the textures on pokemon just look weird and uncanny (except for the great metallic ones)
I'm against ai but I genuinely hope they start using ai or whatever to generate textures for them that aren't hideous copy pastes at this point
A lot of the Pokemon look like complete shit too
>>58549926>AI>Not looking like shitNice one, Anon.
>>58549938I think ai usually looks like shit but I sincerely believe that chatgpt could come up with a more aesthetically pleasing game
>>58549918some of the textures genuinely look alright in za. the walls around rust hq for example look nice
>>58549938AI work is easily better than most Human professionals when it comes to art these days.
What SV and ZA lack is art direction. How about asking GF to give humans enough time and money to create a good looking game instead of assuming they must resort to AI? Does GF have no money to hire artists? Fuck you AI shills for even suggesting that you'd be satisfied with AI generated trash.
>>58549918all 3d games on the switch look like total shit, the only ones that dont are made by nintendo
>>58549918Looks fine to me tbqh
>>58549918They're ugly because their dogshit engine has abysmal optimisation. They clearly struggled to make it run on the Switch at all. Look how much they had to cut from Mesagoza and then STILL had to instance the whole city to make it run at 20 fps. That particular screenshot shows the edge of the instanced city, which has a more simplified version of the surrounding areas.It wasn't a choice. They had to gimp it so hard to make it run.
>>58549918SV was developed during COVID
They're the most incompetent studio in the world, by a big margin. specially when you take into account the resources at the disposal of the company, which has been just sort of printing money for the last 30 years.
>>58551569what the almighty fuckThey cut A LOT!And it still ran like shit ingame.
>>58551883Yeah, they CAN make a good looking game, but they can't optimise for shit. They clearly had to completely butcher it to make it run at all.
>>58551908This is so depressing, and to think swsh is still the better looking game despite being ruined, sv truly reeks of fresh steamy fucking shit
>>58549918Game Freak has never had anyone particularly good at making graphics on staff and, more importantly, their customers have never given them any incentive to improve the visuals.
>>58549930this, design-wise, the quality of the pokemon is abysmal nowadaysthe gen 8 and 9 dexes are a disgrace, fans on the internet piss all over the the bozos at GF and Creature with ease by redesigning their trash
>>58549918Kek SV looks so shit
>>58549918The worst part is the games look worse and feel more empty. Despite it being open world which could be their excuse for a less appealing game, the world feels less open and more empty than ever before. I blame the folks that jerked themselves off to legends Arceus
>>58549918Small indie studio understand
>>58549918SV is a miles better game than SWSH thought
>>58551569They should have never realsed SV for the switch in such state.
>>58549938>>5854994210 fucking seconds with a basic fucking prompt "Make this videogame better quality, keep the mountains and waterfall" There is no fucking excuse for the game to look this bad. >inb4 pic looks like shityes, but it still looks waaaay fucking better than what gamefreak made.
>>58549918God I'm so glad we're almost done with this Gen, SV was horrendous
>>58552879>haha surely ugly pokemon games are a thing of the past now!
>>58553058SV is the bottom of the barrel, surely they won't drop to the bottom of hell right....right.
game freak relying so hard on iwata and not having anyone on their team learn a single fucking thing from him has been a disaster
>>58552879>God I'm so glad we're almost done with this Genthere's still one year until gen 10 releases, cope
>>58553089And gen 10 is gonna be shit too.
>>58552595How fucking retarded do you have to be to think that you can use AI on a whole ass 3D game to make it look like your picYou must be literally 12 if you know this little about how games are made
>>58553890Retard-kun, my post is a simplification of the process. You can obviously take different textures, and ask AI to make them more HD, or more diverse with patterns so they not look copy pasted. You can take fucking building models and ask AI to make the model more detailed, and even more optimised in term of polygons count. Piece by piece a fucking AI could remake and optimise this fucking piece of shit in like a week or two. AI could give concept arts for fucking world, towns and whatever so it woudn't look like the trash Game freak made.Think Retard-kun think!
>>58554187Absolutely not how any of this shit works, holy shitNot even mentioning the fact that the main problem is the performance and optimisation not the actual graphics
