>>12493707Kevin Smith has lazy thread designs
>>12493723Why does it seem like there's a guy talking shit about shmups on every thread? I didn't know people could be so angry at a thing for being bad at it
>>12493723/thread>>12493748He is absolutely correct, also visual novels
>>12493748just another /vr/ schizo
>>12493750>visual novelsYou do realize op is talking about visual designs. not level design? Also how is this lazy from any kind of design standpoint?https://youtu.be/_Oi8K6hnKRM?si=VwXw9dnRb2GLDYUu&t=304

>>12493707No matter what people say I’ll always find recolored characters soulful: Sub-Zero / Scorpion, Mario & Luigi, Toads, Power Rangers etc… I think characters that are presented as different but in reality all play the same like Ryu, Ken and Akuma are way worse.>>12493723I think the bigger issue is that developers don’t try to be creative with this genre, and honestly that’s an issue I have with most shooters. Why make something like Fantasy Zone when you can make generic military or space shooter #9999?
>>12494183>I think the bigger issue is that developers don’t try to be creative with this genreThis but fighting games.
>>12493707It's cool that they gave them different poses.
>>12493723>oh my, a line of enemies...>oh my, killing them all gave me a small bonus...>oh my, I got touched once and lost everything...>how fun...

>>12493707Not really laziness, more like memory limitations. They didn't have the space to cram that many different sprites, so recolored characters were their best choice. Otherwise they'd ended in a situation like Vampire Savior / Vampire Savior 2 / Vampire Hunter 2, where they had to make separate games with different characters to accomodate them all.
batman forever kind of looks lazy from a modern perspective so it came to mind. but it's actually an awesome game for it's art style, really captured the batman forever vibe.
>>12493748A /vr/ skitzo thats been at it since around the coof. You legit can't talk about the genre almost at all on 4chan.

>>12493707I prefer palette swaps though. It's like the TMNT.

>>124973102/3 of the ninja sprites are shared.Pic shows how many frames are unique to Scorpion.
