Yeah that artstyle SUCKED

Anyways it SUCKS that modern games don't do unique artstyles am I right /v/ haha we all agree there it's a safe opinion right?
>>
>>12426145
Unique it's no excuse for a shit art style, you could say all amiga games are unique and that would be true but 90% of them look like shit
>>

This thread is garbage. Kill OP brutally.

>>12426152
Which Amiga games do you think look like shit? I'm curious.

I had like the whole romset and 80% percent of the games would be a platformer with a clashing garnish artstyle
>>
Wind Waker, Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks are good video games and you won't convince me otherwise.
Also, that movie is one fine animation treasure.

People love Samurai Jack though

I'm really fond of it, whether or not WW exists

Are you parodying how a lot of people whine and complain about shit, things finally suit what they wanted, and then they start whining about how the old way was better as if they didn't demand the new thing

Maybe because the protagonist is a cool adult instead of retarded kid?

Yes

Oh, and no bump.

Everyone likes MML art, no one cares about Goemon and some even find the art off-putting

We get it. MML is style-over-substance shovelware.

I was 12 for Ocarina and 17 for Wind Waker. Wind Waker ended up being my favorite 3D Zelda game and still is. I won’t deny the flaws, but it’s the Zelda game that hooked me even though I was the perfect age for OoT.
>>
>>12433826
Conversely Wind Waker was the game that me give up on the Zelda series because it didn't fix anything from OoT and toned down the difficulty even further.
>>
>>12433838
My other favorite Zelda game is Link’s Awakening, so maybe I just can’t resist those summery oceanside vibes.
>>
>>12430007
So the problem isn't the art style.
>>

>>12433812
People like Mega Man in general and it has a million games, meanwhile we only got a handful of Goemon games outside of Japan and the majority of them are still considered classics
I don't care about the queers who are probably afraid of clowns too
>>
>>12426130
Twilight Princess is worse game tho. They should have just continued to develop something more refined based on WW instead of listening to the opinions of amerilards who don't even know what they want
>>
>>12426152
Imagine thinking WW had a shit art style because you're a butthurt faggot that was upset it didn't look like LOTR
>>
>>12433812
I like Mega Man too, also why the fuck do you think your opinion on art style matters?
And who finds Goemon "off putting"? Stop inventing scenarios in your head
>>
Zelda should look like LotR
>>
>NOT MY HECKIN 50 YEAR OLD FRANCHISE!!!
ENOUGH already. The first Zelda game came out in the 80s. It's time to let it fucking go. I feel the exact same way about over raped western franchises like Alien and Spiderman.

They probably got filtered by this screen a lot

Stuff like Spiderman and Superman are gonna go on forever, long after we're dead and already were going on before we were born
The one silver lining is that you can reasonably hope for an actually good writer taking things over or an inevitable reboot where everything shit is erased and goes back to square one again

It's gay as fuck

Projecting?

I really have no ill will towards stuff like this anymore. anything bad that was an idiosyncratic creative decision is water off my back, missteps like that would exist in the most idealized game industry. the malaise of the industry today is not from unique creative decisions, bot dismal trends.
>>
>>12437459
Many people loved Wind Waker’s art direction right from the start in 2003, myself included.
>>
>>12426159
Nigga it's not garbage if you know what they're referring to. Like the art style or not w/e you do you

>>12437518
You and a small group of people perhaps. The larger audience fucking hated it, and it sold poorly. There's a reason why TP was an astronomic success compared to WW despite TP being a worse game. Everyone who wasn't a baby wanted GC Zelda to look like the Space World tech demo with OOT Link back.
>>
>>12437540
There’s a couple flaws I’m seeing with this post. Wind Waker sold well on an unsuccessful console. Twilight Princess was a dual release on GameCube and the Wii, so you can’t make a 1:1 comparison.
>>
>>12437540
They should have made more cel-shaded Zelda's rather than the cringe unaware garbage that made it into OoT and the other tryhard games of the franchise.
>>
>>12437596
They did. Those didn't sell either.
>>
>>12437608
Even if you swapped Wind Waker and Twilight Princess, it’s very unlikely that alone would’ve guaranteed an additional 40 million GameCubes sold. The PS2 was simply too dominant for one Zelda game to move the needle that much.
>>
>>12437592
Holy cope. People bought Wii for TP in droves, because they wanted it. People did not do the same for WW.

>>12437596
There's nothing try-hard about OOT. It has a completely naturalistic color and character design style that was functional but realistic for the time. If anything, WW was try hard for trying to make up for its utter lack of substance and shallow overworld with a gimmicky art style and travel system. TP is the embodiment of try hard though.
>>
>>12437627
Eh… I think you’re exaggerating a bit. Twilight Princess was a much bigger success because it was on a much more successful console. That alone wasn’t why the Wii was a big hit.
>>
>>12437626
Lmao, PS2 has been out but 2 years at that point. If WW was going to be a system seller, it would have absolutely boosted sales.

TP was able to do that for Wii.
>>
>>12437629
It was a launch title. Completely disingenuous post. Had it been a launch title for GC, it absolutely would have moved the console.
>>
>>12437630
Three years. Wind Waker came out in 2003 when the PS2 was in its prime and had been well established as the dominant console. Realistically speaking there’s absolutely no possible way a single Nintendo game was going to make the GameCube even remotely close the gap in console sales against Sony.
>>
>>12437632
Yes, it was a ‘launch title’ in that it had been developed for the GameCube and then used as a crossover release like they did with Breath of the Wild as a launch title for Switch. It certainly helped, but the Wii was going to be way more successful than the Cube regardless.
>>
>>12437632
You realize Wind Waker wasn’t a launch title, right?
