Why does this game look so bad?

the switch is an underpowered handheld and an a sub-par console

They crammed a ludicrous amount of shit into a tiny village area and so the variable resolution dips.

Pan the camera around and theres like 30 floating shop vendor texts. You can't fucking see shit. The villages and stuff are so badly placed.

But the same team made XCX on even weaker hardware. What went wrong with 2?

because you have Pyra censored

Current-gen consoles are approaching photo-realism in terms of graphical quality, but it conflicts with Nintendo's hard-on for portability. The fact is, graphics are a big selling point commercially, so Nintendo have to keep their games up to a certain par to appeal to the target market, even if it affects performance like it does with XB2 playing on a console that's just barely powerful enough to run it. Sony and Microsoft have caught on that talking a lot about specs regarding new consoles gets people hyped up even if they don't understand a word of it, since it follows the simple logic of better specs = better graphics, but Nintendo are stubborn and refuse to do the same thing. XB2 is pretty good but it would look a lot better if it was on a faster console.

That handheld resolution is certainly ass, but the game looks pretty good docked even with the variable resolution issues in some areas. The reason it wasn’t optimised well like the other titles is likely because they had to port the X engine for Switch and develop the game in under 3 years with only 40 in-house staff.

>weaker hardware
In some areas but the wii u was much better at rendering. X really was pushing the system to the limits though.

Handheld mode super-gimps the Switch.

It doesn't.

Nice cherrypicking faggot

5 years of development vs 2.5 years with a skeleton team

The Switch isn't all that more powerful than the wiiU.

WHY DOES MY SOUL FEEL SO BAD

Grabbing a screenshot of the most hardware demanding area in the game isn't cherrypicking?
Also, you're going to have a tough time saying the game is ugly when it's playable in 4k in yuzu and it looks better than whatever your favorite PS4/PC game is.

pot calling the kettle a nigger

Yikes that looks like absolute trash compared to X

because it IS bad

No, X had a boring color palette in comparison to XC2 and if you weren't comparing that photo to 4k screens of X from Cemu then you would have literally zero argument.
But, congrats on outing yourself as Xfag so we know this thread is just bait.

I’m not Xfag, I just think XC2 has garbage graphics compared to X. Colours don’t make good graphics, X looked detailed, complex and clear at the same time while 2 is blurry and basic as fuck.

Nintendo shills still eat that shit up. Ugly mismashed assets, terrible voice acting, xenosaga tier cringeworthy writing, and low res/framerate game which is completely unacceptable in 2019. It was a straight downgrade from 1 desu

On a side note why are games no longer colorful? XC2s color was a breath of fresh air.

Because the graphics make you feel like you are the only guy in town

If you weren't Xfag then you wouldn't have started the billionth "hurr DAE XC2 ugly?" thread while cherrypicking with the worst looking screenshot of the game on the internet. Also you wouldn't have compared the graphics to X in the first place.

>This actual legitimate real answer gets ignored

Classic Yea Forums

It's the only exclusive JRPG on the Switch

even that's terrible user

>complains about cherrypicking
>in a thread with the most heavily cherrypicked pic possible in the OP, even photoshopping it to be worse by uscaling it poorly
LOL, snoyfags really are retarded.
