wow has always been the best. the playerbase made it good and it made it die too. even bfa would still be good but other players ruin it

Someone should use the AI stuff to redraw the original painting.
that would look much better.

The problem is nobody with any talent works on anime anymore.

So that industry mirrors vidya? Interesting.

These look almost litterally, damn near the exact fucking same, out of all of the autistic, assnine whining about remakes, this is the most stupid i've seen yet.

You literally could not ask for a more faithful visual update then this.

Why do you think i give a fuck about wow lore?
I know that they retconned Illidan about le "chosen one superbadass megapowerful toostronk4u badass hero"

shill detected

Head's a bit bigger, but it definitely looks like they added finer details to match the game's current state. You can tell because you can see a lot more feathers individually, where as the original sort of blends in for the most part.
The beak is a minor detail change, yeah.
Which is weird because it should be a Razorbeak Griffon, and it's called that for a good reason - the razor-like beak. The only change that wasn't re-texturing, changed it into just a griffon

Unless you're actually gonna try to tell me Part 4, 5 and Koike's stuff looks bad

Idolmaster never had soul. Neither did the insectoids that liked it.

anime nowadays is made by chinks.
Japan industry has gotten oversaturated and artists get paid below minimum wage so they have to resort to producing shit overseas hence the low quality.

I'm still wondering what's wrong with the bottom here

Idol trash is the definition of SOULLESS

Chinese are based and redpilled. Only (((liberals))) hate them.

>all in all it looks like a Chink made it
Actually this is a very big problem I rarely see anyone mention in-depth, the new artwork itself would've looked fantastic if you saw it back in the day with no context, but all of us are aware of the massive outsourcing and copying happening in the industry, as well as the tons of mobile trash that uses the aesthetic, so we see the artwork as devalued and it appears "Chinese" even though the artstyle itself originated in the west (but was genuinely made by the Chinese this time around).

We see value in things that are unique and hard to replicate, for example Apple pulls a ton of shit with their products to make them harder to copy and to appear more valuable and it works to the tune of one trillion dollars. Blizzard itself said it's using a different artstyle for the Warcraft 3 remake because the original style has been copied too much. Ironically they're replacing it with the artstyle from the MoP cinematic, a Chinese-inspired expansion, and the actual modelwork was outsourced to the Chinese.

Every thing wants to go WoW artsyle nowadays it seems. I mean warhammer fantasy basically just went full WoW with Age of Sigmar. It's either completly overdesigned or boring ass full plate and huge pauldron paladins. The old designs were so much better.

Limbo of the Lost

The real mistake was assuming you'd ever be wearing plate armor anyway. Now strap on that leather gear like a real warrior.

Jim Raynor is the worst one. His character had so much SOUL and POTENTIAL until they ruined him in SC2.

It's your punishment for playing undead.

Same, but with Lion and Puck.
I don't know why devs are so adverse to having tastefully ugly characters in their games

>GUYS, THE COLORS ARE MORE SATURATED, SO IT MEANS IT'S BETTER

Strategy games becoming a visually indistinguishable mess (nu-WC3, CoH 2, Ashes of the Singularity, etc.) is one of the reasons the genre is well on its way out.

that nigga has an andromeda brain

why the fuck would an undead cut holes in their armor to show off their exposed bones though?
>get new cloak
>oh hold on i gotta put a big gash in it for my spine before i put it on

That image being glorified jargon.

So what we're saying is that people could articulate why the older versions are superior, but they choose to use nu-memespeak instead

>babyfaced dwarf

Because they want everyone to see their bones, of course.

I will never not be angry over Elora.

yes dota really dropped the ball on some redesign choices.
The one you posted is probably the worst offender next to Skele king

Those look nice and have soul, once you are in dungeons in the game it's soulless.
The characters have these weird proportions and the artstyle looks undetailed and boring.

WOW was the worst thing to happen to fantasy design. It spread through so many other games, too.

they would choke on the massive girth, yes

That gryphon looks like a fucking robot.

Peripheral vision is overrated bruh, trust me.
*bumps into guy to the right*
Sorry.

3 was okay but it's clearly unfinished in some areas. The hover board races are just broken. Fortunately it ends on a high note mostly because Midnight Mountain is a god tier.

the retards are hating but you're absolutely right. The natural lighting is gone and the lines are too prominent making every aspect of the art compete for attention

you hit the nail on the head.

Digital feels like they're using studio lighting whereas cel feels more natural. Really a damn shame.

nah, the modern sonic is an absolutely fantastic redesign for classic sonic

eh, I like the bones sticking out

The shading just isn't done right. They lose a natural sense of lighting and shadow and instead exhibit, idk how else to say this but "textbook" shading so it's technically correct but ultimately looks inferior.

Very wrong. Pic attached is one of her best looks ever

I hate how much harder it is to distinguish units from one another. I'm not even going to bother with this shit and I'm a complete Warcraft 3 baby.

It's more realistic that way. But I feel like many games suffer from this and I finally understand why people say that older games had so much soul,just by looking at them.
When they go for the realistic look,suddenly everything blends together and it just creates a really boring image that mostly looks the same everywhere you look. The older colors were way more contrasted and they were easy to distinguish.

the most important one

If video games are supposed to be art, stop limiting yourself with realism. Monster hunter is not going to be realistic. I understand the appeal, and when done right it can enhance the immersion very much.

Halo 2 was clearly the best version.

based

What went wrong?

Attached: whathappened.jpg (1803x1076, 229K)

Furries.

They went with a more realistic aproach for the weapon designs too,atleast for the majority. Thats why everything is basically bones and steel and boring looking.

What are some examples of nu soul?

Grand wyvern > old wyvern

Grand gryphon < old gryphon

Why they decided to give the beak a hook and remove the pupil from the now shrunken eye i dont know, but it really ruins the look.

anything made in the "le generic dreamworks" style
a great example is overwatch, which is possibly the most soulless game ever made

>lol they just took a picture of the drawing right?
user i don't mean to alarm you by they did in fact manually create the lighting they wanted for the shot.

>this triggers the autists

I didn't know that the Undead used to be boneless, that's pretty interesting. I guess they added them to make them a bit more visually distinguishable from the living.

Games with a "Pixar" style that manage to look both realistic and stylized at the same time. Examples include:

Sonic Unleashed
Mario Kart 8
Super Mario Odyssey

I don't know who that character is but why does he look like sonic in right pic?

whats the animu on the bottom left?

Klonoa. Great platforming series, but you can't really talk about it on Yea Forums. Left is his original design, right is his redesign for the second game. To be fair, he was going in the "Sonic" direction when they changed his eyes for the WonderSwan game (See pic related) but Klonoa 2 turned it up to 11.

Attached: CCBA953E-F6B6-48A9-8D74-22F1A9CD613E.jpg (250x300, 27K)

Retarded assumption. You can't even see the shield's face and yet you say a Wildhammer Dwarf would be using a symbolic shield that represents Stormwind of all factions.

Never played, which Klonoa game was the best?

dumb cuck
wildhammer have face markings.

>Very wrong. Pic attached is one of her best looks ever
Good taste.

I was listing to myself all the ways the old one looked better than the new one and then this fucking exists. What the fuck Blizzard? How did you fuck this up so badly?

This is what night elf archers look like in BFA. They haven't been toning down NELFs Tyrande still has a cleavage window and exposed legs even in her Night Warrior armor getup. There is hope

Attached: refonte-armure-night-elves-1.jpg (4806x1920, 796K)

What you don't see here is how they butchered the animations. I like the new design, but I still use the old model because the flight animation looks stupid.

They're all good. Only two mainline games (Both PS exclusive with the first one being remade for the Wii) and three side games on the WonderSwan and GBA. There's also two spin-offs but nobody really talks about them.

hahahah did you post this thinking it looks good?

new wyvern would be goat if not for the horns, is there even an explanation for that?

Top right is peak Bulma, she never got hotter than this. Fight me niggers.

Oh my god did they actually pull on the forward assist in the reload animation?

Out of your four comparison cases the only one where the old series look even remotely better at any point is Sailor Moon (and even then, most of the old series only counted as animation in the most technical of senses, a handful of memorable scenes from season ending episodes does not redeem 185 more episodes of stills and reused clips).

Absolutely

If I played a racing game and your character started the car by pulling on the shift knob id drop that shit so fast, why would i not do the same for a shooting game

Its the same armor worn by the night elf npcs in the new er content you dumb fucks.

Some of them. And some use the skimpy armor shown here So what's your point moron.

That armor isn't used in the newest content is my point, they replaced it with the warfront gear.
