Such a shame this shit was designed to run on some weak ass tablet...

haha epic but I am talking about the complexity here, but if you want to argue retard shit let's go, it's not like the mountains in botw reek of personality either, shits just a bunch of rocks when you stand on it

why does everything with modern graphics look like clay/mud?

Attached: 1200px-BotW_Satori_Mountain.png (1200x675, 899K)

well that image has tons of clay, mud and sand and shit in it

Breath of the Wild's literally climbing mountains (and almost every other surface) definitely allows for more variety by not being constrained by realism and Sam definitely can't move as fast or smoothly as Link. The problem with Breath of the Wild's mountains and plateaus that aren't specific landmarks is they're generally pretty empty and uninteresting on their peaks/tops beyond maybe a Korok or some resources, to the point that you feel like you're taking a shortcut and missing out on whatever you could find on the "intended" path. Also rain makes climbing suck ass and the game gives you no way to mitigate it.

Ah fair enough then, I agree with that.

bullshit, shit looks shit because it's made for tablet hardware, you know it's true, if they had made it on literally over 10x stronger hardware which is what other consoles are, shit would also be able to look 10x more complex

This specific mountain has plenty of personality. It looks like that mountain in Peru over by Machu Picchu that was carved to look like a face.

it looks fucking garbage and could look so fucking good if it didn't have to run on a tablet

I'm more concerned about the failure on the game design side.

I care a lot more about how it plays than how it looks, user. Photorealism isn't an interesting style, Death Stranding looks good because of the strong aesthetic and weird shit, not because the mountain looks like a real mountain.
I seriously doubt hardware was a major limit on the overworld exploration or any gameplay, the game only struggles in certain cluttered towns. Having more processing power to work with wouldn't have resulted in the dozens of barren cliffs suddenly being worth climbing, making the overworld so massive with only so many secrets to find around every corner is a game design problem, not a limit of the hardware.

I am talking about visual complexity, not realism also you're a retard and I am completely right about the fact that it could look so fucking much better if it didn't have to run on a tablet

I really wish Nintendo made a normal console. Not a graphics whore but 1080p isn't too much to ask for in 2019.

But that's all old news- the GameCube was the last home console that could compete with Sony and MS.

That about covers it. Thank you for coming to my SPED talk.

>m-muh looks
Absolute pleb approach to vidya. And that's coming from someone who doesn't even have Switch.

ok retard but it would literally be an improvement if it had more complex looking environments as well as potentially more physics shit going on or whatever you'd use the extra processing power on

90fps > 30fps

The world is made of rock and clay my Neptunian friend.

it's just a specific topic, do you literally never think about how visuals play into games?? cool looking shit is cool but of course there's always fags who whine that people even dare to think that it'd be nice to have better looking shit

First I look at functionality and the next stop is artstyle for me. Polygon count and object density is wack shit that brings too little for too much cost.

read the OP you mouthbreather, shits clearly limited by hardware, anyone would rather play the botw version that looked better and had more complex shit going on

It fucking works and plays fine. What else do you fucking need? How much stuff does your insatiable fucking graphicsmongering face needs to shut the fuck up? Learn to cherish what you have. And remember that it's portable. That shit is also important for lots of people. Probably for more than your "anyone" crowd.

faggot all I am saying it's a shame because it could be so fucking much better if it wasn't made to run on a tablet

It would suck as that looks like bland soulless dogshit

When will Nintendo make a real console that can handle modern games? This Fischer price tablet waggle gimmick has to stop.

It was designed for Wii U. Wait for the next instalment for Switch. Can't wait for that silky smooth Mario Odyssey 60 fps

all that soul in also how can you not distinguish complexity from the style

Soulless

FYI it doesn't take much power to clutter that mountain up a bit. Modern rendering techniques are equipped to deal with that stuff fair well the most part.
However what it does take is time. It's a hell of a lot harder to make cartoon graphics look complex and "cluttered" than it is realistic ones. It's far easier to make something realistic look good than cartoony, because in real life things are ugly and random and grimy. In cartoons, not so much.

It's more than fine as it is. Stop your entitled whining and go play some good vidya. Not every game has to have toppest tier ultra benchmark graphics-tier to look good.
And again, portability is a good thing.

How fucking long will it go on? I feel second hand embarrassment for snoy

yeah wait for the installment made for... oh shit switch too is weak as fuck as it's a tablet, it's not going to look much better and it's going to be 30fps almost definitely but we'll see
it does take far more than a sub 10W tablet SoC can handle

It doesn't have to be "much better" to be a good enough game. And your "better" would take away portability which was the main selling point for a lot of people, inculding myself.

>it does take far more than a sub 10W tablet SoC can handle
Not really, I'd wager that complex terrain sculpt is probably more hardware intensive than building a mountain out of actual models. Stuff like geometry instancing makes rendering those types of scenes a fucking breeze. But actually building them by hand using models takes a hell of a lot more time and energy. Especially if you want to do it well.

If you don’t want portable why did you choose to talk about a portable console?

Instead of having fun with whatever you have at your disposal you choose to be an insatiable evercomplaining piece of shit. Why do you torture yourself?

It was designed to run on the Wii U.

It is possible to make games that scale down very nicely to the Switch. See Doom, Mortal Kombat

yeah it doesn't matter how much geometry your hardware can push, literally doesn't matter...
dude there's a real reason trees in botw look very low geometry and why everything in the distance is ps2 level geometry

It’s just a handheld with removable parts. People call it a tablet cause when you take the joycons off it’s just a screen. But you can’t actually do anything without the joycons still. They’re a part of the system like the buttons on a gameboy.

I have to admit I watched this gif loop for way too long expecting some payout

>waaah how dare there be different consoles for different audiences and tastes?
>everything needs to be A REAL CONSOLE with bestest gear on board
That's why

I haven't said anything about not having fun with botw, stop projecting

>looking at a light source that fills 90% of the screen with some post-processing effect
Babbys first screenshot

yeah they just put LOD for static meshes in games just for fun

So if you had your fun why the fuck are you complaining?

because I'd love a botw that was made for actual hardware instead of some tablet SoC

oh yeah I forgot if I have fun with something then I am literally supposed to think it couldn't be better in any shape or form ever

And yet you can't seem to actually refute me and say why it couldn't be done.
>just parroting some random youtuber or something
Well that and the fact that I'm genuinely fucking building a mountain in the video game I'm making.

>yeah it doesn't matter how much geometry your hardware can push, literally doesn't matter...
Thus instancing. Built more or less for that single purpose.
>dude there's a real reason trees in botw look very low geometry and why everything in the distance is ps2 level geometry
Yeah, it's called LOD and it is a way to render a lot of geometry.

I'm not gonna say the Switch can do a game that looks like Death Stranding, that's insane. I'm just saying there are ways to make mountains and terrain that doesn't look like something out of Oblivion while still doing it on shitty hardware. Hell just look at Skyrim. Infinitely better looking mountains than Oblivion while still running on the same hardware.

No. They use LOD for static meshes because it's an easy way to make faraway geometry look good while still running on shitty hardware. Nintendo just dropped the ball when it came to designing their terrain.

BOTW looks pretty damn good and on the technical side it's a marvel.

concede or keep acting retarded

I own more than 200 switch games (counting minor $2 shit and neogeo ports) I can only fit about 20 on my sd card. Should I bite the bullet and get a 1tb micro sd? It costs more than the switch did.

I just realized since I have a new pc i can emulate this game. Hot damn.

how does having shit like SSAO make it a marvel? it's pushing a tablet for sure but look at that shit

I have never played this game but I kind of like the simple aesthetic. Sometimes the ultra realistic shit feels too busy and everything is caught in a blur. I was watching twisted metal 4 gameplay the other day and I was like wow even though these graphics suck I can clearly see the levels and enemies.

>switch couldn't handle death stranding tier geometry in a game like botw
No fucking shit. It's a weak ass tablet. What I'm saying is there are ways to make a far more complex and nice looking mountain without making the Switch shit itself if they weren't as lazy.

It's never gonna look as complex as Death Stranding obviously, but you can do a hell of a lot better than what they have is my point.
>I dabble in blender for my shitty unity/unreal game
Do you now.

What backpedaling? I never once said the Switch can do what the PS4/5 can do. I just said there are ways to clutter up that mountain *a bit* despite the Switch's shitty hardware.

Again. No shit. But it's a good thing you don't need 10 times more powerful hardware to make a mountain not look like total shit.

Yeah, for all the 2-3 hours it takes to experience all the content the game has to offer.

After sluggishly climbing your fourth tower, discovering your 30th korrok seed and 25th shrine with a single easy to solve puzzle and 1/4th of a useless treasure that could be replaced with easier and faster to make food, the game loses all its charm.

ideally a dev isn't held back by anything, but having a tablet SoC sure limits what you can do

Yes that PART did. But not the part where they first revealed the graphics and landscape. It didn't look as overtly cartoony as the game turned out and it looked better while still being stylized

Shrines.
Korrok Seeds.

There are no items to discover. No new story areas. No sense of adventure or discovery, because everything is the same. It's an open world with three things in it, copy-pasted over and over.

The only unique things are the 4 dungeons in the game, which are all laughably short. Every boss is incredibly easy, and strong weapons are littered everywhere in Hyrule castle.

Guardians are the most interesting and threatening enemies in the game, and they're NEUTERED by ancient arrows, but there's no need to even fight them because the armor set you can make from their parts is worthless compared to cheap and plentiful food and potions.
You can literally beat the game in 45-50 minutes without trying hard.

When its pretty obvious it does. Its pretty obvious to non-autistic people who understand that the reveal trailer was intended to give people an indication of the art style and direction the game was going in. But instead they cannot process simple creative choices like that and fixate on the literal interpretation "but that precise location isn't in the game! REEEEEEEEEE!

On the contrary, it used ps3 level hardware very effectively in a way that few games from that generation ever did. I notice that people here will often bitch about how tech creep is killing more experimental or efficient use of tech but then when Nintendo does that by using older tech without having to worry about tech chasing graphics and using the tech for a more mechanical focus people bitch that Nintendo doesn't tech chase graphics.

hardware did, cemu helps tons

Cemu draws in extra hills? Whoa.

>fixate on the literal interpretation "but that precise location isn't in the game! REEEEEEEEEE!
That's not what they are saying at all. You just made the dumbest strawman argument I've ever seen.

well you can use it to push the LOD bias back a lot

that's actually a good design though, just a bit primitive with the graphics. design wise i'd say it's totally superior

i think it's kind of boring how the bokoblins, moblins and lizalfos in BotW all look so similar. In OoT the Lizalfos look very different, and also better

BOTW is kino and only revs Zoomers

I'm not the one crying about a screenshot from a reveal trailer.

Why do rabid BotW fans always act like any criticism comes from misunderstanding. We understand the game and what they were trying to do. That doesn't mean you can't criticize it at the same time

Its well documented how BotW's userscore got bombed by seething Sonyqueers. Metacritic had to delete the more obvious ones.

Sigh.....

In my opinion, BotW looks like shit. It just does. Instead of looking like a topographical masterpiece with really varied terrain, most of the "mountains" just look like rocks or boulders stacked on top of one another. The game just doesn't give you a feel for rough beauty of topography, it just looks too artificial. I also think that for a world often described as "beautiful" its almost entirely lacking in really gorgeous vistas, and it has the ugliest, most dull looking rain I have ever seen in a video game. I can appreciate they tried for a stylized look, but it doesn't look that good. RDR2, despite being blandly photorealistic, gives a better feel for mountainous, hilly terrain

oh yeah I should take your opinion over stats and my own opinion

Fuck you, your taste is shit

well I agree with one thing for sure, many of the mountains have so poorly pasted rocks on the wall that it looks jarring, like very muddy textures next to less muddy textures, shit doesn't fit together at all at times

They did you fucking dumbass. When they say the game doesn't capture the E3 2014 reveal, they aren't saying "it doesnt have that exact location"! They are saying it looks graphically downgraded and not as cool looking.

Attached: 489830_20190531184940_1.png (1920x1080, 2.79M)

better. Skyrim is the definition of soulless

I think better because skyrim look like it tries to look realistic with botw tier geometry which doesn't really work imo

So now you're outing yourself as a nostalgia faggot incapable of appreciating different stuff. Your opinion is irrelevant and nobody gives a shit about your autistic nigger looking moblin.

It's on PC though and even there it's mediocore. It's held back by other things such as a lacking open world and shit combat. One step forward and two step backwards. They give us amazing tools to traverse the open world, but the open world itself is fucking boring.

Will we ever get an open world game that isnt shit tier?

It's not even close. BOTW is a masterpiece in artstyle compared to Skyrim or any Bethesda game. Bethesda games have the ugliest artstyle out of any of the big devs.

it runs on an emulator on PC, the assets were not designed for PC...

There was one item to discover outside of shrines, I forget what it was but you had to solve a Zora "riddle" which was just a message with some missing letters and go look in some water north of the zora city thing.

crying about a game for 2 years because others enjoy it is not criticism, sweaty :)

Pretty much everything BotW does has been standard in current gen games for a while now. It's only impressive by Wii U/Switch standards.

How long until you can criticize BOTW without Zeldaniggers screeching? Was Skyward Sword so bad it permanently fucked them all up in the head? I've never seen a more obnoxious community.

Attached: liar.jpg (900x675, 67K)

nope
it's an art direction choice by the creative director who is forced to play it safe by the money people (or the people advising the money people, i.e. the MARKET RESEARCH team)

it's not impressive by switch standards either, shit like doom has all the modern rendering tech crammed in it on switch for example

that whole series can be seen in NYC at the Historical Society. I recommend it

this clay looking meme is said about all sorts of games, it's a common thing I've read where people ask why did uncharted 4 look like everything is clay etc.

wait for the next 3D game since it will inevitably go back to more traditional Zelda elements and we'll finally be able to talk about dungeons and unique items again without being lambasted

>still projecting
the absolute state of your garbage taste is deplorable. also there is nothing wrong with the redead design in oot you autistic faggot

I know there's some buttblasted people but that'd look pretty rad in a zelda game

projecting what?

Attached: Lizalfos.png (565x600, 364K)

that'd look pretty cool but I think it'd look kind of shit in 3D because you can't render it the same

the fact that you're comparing two completely different games from different genres is retarded already

I posted a pic of a great dane. what pills are you on and can I have some?

your garbage taste you retarded nostalgia faggot.

don't see why doom rendering tech couldn't be used in botw like games, good they don't though because 480p is low

the Lizalfos in Hyrule Warriors looked pretty good though they also combined part of the design with Skyward Sword's so it has a giant armguard so it's not really the exact same

cry about it

Attached: OoT_Iron_Knuckle_Artwork.png (1658x2433, 3.27M)

Switch has a 500 GFLOP GPU in all modes since software can control the clock speed to its liking

Design-wise the moblins in OoT are awful and nowhere near as good as the design of the moblins in BotW

citation needed because this wasn't true at least in the past
I know they updated the system to allow for more CPU clockspeed flexibility and of course if you hack your switch you can tweak stuff

Because it's an open world game made for Wii U running on a fucking tablet. Get your head out of your ass.

Nothing in Hyrule Warriors looked good. The artists at Koei are awful.

I think they could port shit like rage 2 on switch and it'd run

Look up freebird

Literally who?

Attached: Untitled.png (654x546, 95K)

well as far as I am aware they haven't
probably because they want to keep that few hour battery life when portable mode as a standard

Point is it's still possible, though unlikely

there's a difference between 1st person shooters and 3rd person adventure open world games. the switch is simply incapable of running something like red dead redemption 2.

okay well that's a mute point when I said shit runs on a GPU pushing 150gflops which it does

now THIS is contrarianism

>still justifying your garbage taste
Stop

>someone was seething enough to make this
YIKES!

not really, you certainly can scale shit down so that the GPU can handle it, dunno if the CPU could handle the systems going on in rdr2, haven't really played and looked at it

I am unironically mad that this style never got used again, it's probably his best look, maybe barring Wind Waker.

Fuck they truly murdered TP's ganondorf design. Fucking disgusting.

Contrarian? Most people believe the Hyrule Warriors games have garbage art style. It's called having common sense.

>still defending discount Ghibli
yikes

Attached: OoT_Octorok_Artwork.png (800x461, 354K)

also why I said not really, the GPU is not that concerned about the type of game, more what it has to render, amount of geometry and what sort of shaders it has to run on that geometry, the CPU is far more concerned around what type of game you're dealing with because it has to tell the GPU to draw that shit, but the GPU doesn't really care at all

BotW seriously doesn't do anything special or interesting aesthetically at all.

I'm more upset by the fact that SS had a really nice art style and an interesting oil paint filter, but the Wii was so goddamn weak that trying to render any of that just makes the game look worse than if it weren't there in the first place. SS being played on a Wii looks fucking nasty, it's the first thing I think of a game being held back by hardware.

it doesn't matter, because it's currently on a funner console than on my tower or anyone else's.
I seriously don't understand the autism that drives you guys to think fun = good graphics at optimized blah blah blah. The best experiences I had were sharing the controllers with people and watching them react to the Switch itself, playing in bed, on the plane back and forth, etc etc.

it's also available for your tower

literally no one is saying what you propose as the premise you gigantic faggot

why don't people like you understand this idea while visuals don't make a game, it'd be cool to have the same shit designed for stronger hardware instead

>wanting to provide something of value in a thread created to shit on BotW
who the fuck are you even kidding you hypocritical faggot?

> banal, plebian, laughable
he said, describing himself.

Skyrim doesnt look that bad. if you play the special edition it has actually aged shockingly well. it can still look pretty beautiful in some parts

BotW's aesthetics are great, and if it had better hardware it probably wouldn't look that much different, just upscaled and smoother. All of BotW's failings stem from design choices, such as the weapon degrading. It wouldn't be a better game if it had better looking gravel, it would be a markedly better game if it had weapons that didn't break in 5 hits so the developers wouldn't be afraid to restrict enemy variety so badly.

nice projection incel cuck

Woo the fuck are you kidding you retarded faggot? Every BOTW thread is about that

anything else you want to get out of your system

You're either too old and retarded to remember what ps2 games looked like, or too young and retarded to know what ps2 games looked like. So which one are you?

grafix wouldnt save this game from becoming ubisoft-tier repetitive after 20 hours

>So, generic landscape with no personality?
so... just like botw?

The only solution is that Nintendo needs to go 3rd party. People wouldn't have to deal with their outdated hardware and their shitty online

those are the same generic ass-pats that the industry gave to shitcher 3.
