When will the realistic graphics meme end?

rent free

Swords aren't half as heavy as you think they are, how many times does it need to be said for you to finały get it?

MARKETING you dumbfuck, realistic 3D renders are expensive, but you will attract more people if your game looks like a marvel movie, than Road to El Dorado.
I would love to play a game with Road to El Dorado art style, but I know it will sell like shit.

It's more distress and anxiousness than empowerment, really

Goddamn idiot, go pickup a 10lb dumbell you fat fuck

In their defense, a 10 lb sword would be unwieldy as fuck, that's as heavy as some of the big 2 handed fuckers

>SE will never go back to this style
Fuck them.

their console is full of nostalgiafags, if Odyssey was released on PC by some unknown studio, most people would ignore it.

Unwieldy, yes but my Point was that she is physically able to carry it and probably hit something with it.

>game looks like shit within 3-4 years
They don't care. They'll be making a lot of money with a new game, in which the grqphics look dated faster, each year. More money that way even if they age poorly.

It looks like her village got raided and she grabbed her dead father's sword off the mantle. I'd play a game like that

Id dig it.

>10 pounds is as heavy as some of the big fuckers
The only swords that capped out at 10 pounds would be used by guys who were pushing 6”4, your estimation of the weight of that blade is completely unfounded. A regular scots claymore caps at around seven pounds and althoug it required two hands for efficiency it was due to weight distribution, not actual weight. I know you have your opinions man, but if your going to care soh to spew it at least be right about it.

Exactly, even the artist's animation is called "nothing to lose", she's gone full berserk

Yeah, their chests or shoulders never move when breathing heavily.

If the game's file size is large, the user is forced to uninstall other games, focusing on less games.

It's not from a game though

it's that simple
I wonder if we could ever go back to games like Spyro and Crash that had sequels barely a year apart because you didn't need to reinvent the wheel or spend big money on perfect graphics

Knowing how to make a model isn't the same as knowing how to make a game
These people need to get employed by indie devs, since AAA won't take them anyway, but indie also don't have money to hire these modellers and animators, so they're just stuck there in limbo

>When will the realistic graphics meme end?
Yeah we need more generic pastel and detail-less art like in every Western game. From WoW to Diablo to Dota underlords. It all looks the fucking same.

It's just like making videogame requires more than just slapping triangles together?

The average longsword in medieval ages weighed around 1-2 kilos, a greatsword or a really thick sword would still probably weigh less than 10 kilos

Artists, most of the time aren't programmers, and programmers aren't artists, and game dev is fucking hard.

That's my point.... I was agreeing with you

You know how women have like half the grip and upper body strength of guys?

That's right, I just meant that these people clearly have talent and at least some passion for vidya -- nobody just makes a low poly 3D model unless they do. But I haven't seen one single gamedev try to pick someone like that up and adopt that kind of style.

Because you can make more money for the same effort if you went with a more marketable realistic style

I don't struggle to find games that don't look like generic realistic western trash. Look harder.

I guess you're right, my bad
I've never interacted with a woman

The OP image and the mummy one I posted is from a website called Sketchfab, a model posting space where people post their models, animations and so on, join contests, do charity stuff etc.
The website has over 2mil users and over 3mil posted models.
Now how the fuck do you think these people are meant to market themselves when there are so many? How should an employer even decide on who to get out of that giant see of latent? Unless someone accidentally stumbles onto a specific model and say "That's exactly what I'm looking for in my game!" it's never happening

It easy for us backseat developers/CEOs/managers to say hire these people, but it's just easier to get someone internal and do a generic super realistic style

The worst thing about graphics whoring to me is that it's killed AA games. It use to be that you'd get tons and AA games coming out yearly, both from big studios as secondary titles and from dedicated studios. And a lot of them were very inventive or different, because the cost of experimentation was not quite so high. Now that market is almost dead, almost everything is either derivative AAA graphicsfagging or indies, and indies tend to be either derivative themselves (billions of walking simulators and platformers all with the same mechanics and feel) or have a nice idea they completely bungle. RPGs in particular have been hit hard by this.

I bet a lot of the fat fucks here would do fine with the threat of death forcing them off their asses, irl fighting is not like a JRPG

>when making a game
Yeah, pretty much. You make a game to sell it and big graphics mean big money, so of course everything else gets funneled down from that perspective. As a consumer though absolutely fuck that

Obviously not, there are fewer genres alive now than there were 20 years ago, AAA games are being released few and far between, AA devs are dead outright, indies are mostly the same shit

I was thinking more about the Final Fantasy series and its obsession with graphics, and everyone either trying to copy that or failing. You only have a couple of companies like Falcom and Gust just barely hanging on game to game where there used to be dozens.

Shhh user, there's very important farthuffing going on here
Peasants never should have been taught how to critique

They would be incredibly slow compared to literally anyone who spends more then an hour outside and could easily be overpowered if not outguiled by others. Im betting more on autismos not being receptive to danger until its too late. After all, no one here would have instinct for fights either.

>Graphics is the single most expensive and time consuming part of game development
No, maintenance is.

Brainlet alert

Because all you need for your realism to look better is more money and more expensive computers and more trained monkeys in chairs, and the committee of old men in suits don't need to surrender their control to any one person. Styles take actual talent and an individual vision in control keeping it consistent, or you take the disney method of making a style so rigorously specific that you can boil it down to a set of instructions that any pajeet can follow and you end up with everything looking exactly the same.

she cute.
But that sword is a cricket bat and looks extremely unfit for combat.
If you're designing a character driven by shock, loss, adrenaline and an ancient chaotic neutral god's offering to help said character, you probably want to keep the physics a bit more grounded to up the stakes a bit. Cartoon physics lets people expect cartoony plot armor and such.

I really, really want this game to be finished.

Why? You're already gay.

Is it nepotism if you're not related? I know that happens a lot. I've seen it. But it's "oh, I got a buddy who can do that." Or "we need this? Oh, doesn't Tommy know a guy? See if he can do it." Like looking for good workers fucking sucks dude. It makes sense to hire someone who already has *some* rep. Even if it's actually kind of an illusion at least you know you'll probably get along, and even if they're great at their job you don't want to work with someone who doesn't make the workplace brighter/easier. Hence why every workplace needs a few hot women. It cools men down a bit. If it was all men they'd get too angry/aggressive.

Why didn't Fallout have vehicles? Scouring for parts to get it to work again.
Im really just salty you can't improve the world and start making it nice again. Having it always look like the bomb went off yesterday is so stupid

i agree

Your point is good and I agree up to
>If it was all men they'd get too angry/aggressive.
Depends entirely on each individual. I've worked in offices full of men, full of women and full of diversity. Made absolutely zero difference to the atmosphere, except that with some places (a call center in particular) where there were women they'd have to file lots of harassment complaints

you can have good marketing with style, realistic is boring

>its another triggered by NTR post
text your girl recently? know where she is? who she's with? could be with another guy, user. better watch out

Bethesda couldn't rig vehicles to save their lives, remember that Fallout 4 STILL has the floating diagonal roach walk from Morrowind, the walking animation is just an illusion

There is a limit to "I know a guy".

realistic graphics are both the hardest and easiest. Hardest because it requires precise engineering of the models, shaders, animations, etc. You will need good programmers for that. It's also the easiest, because there is not much room for creativity. A lot of it is already solved (for the most part), i.e. the 'rendering equation' is already known. It's just a question of performance nowadays.

Graphics is not that impressive, any compsci grad can make a proper renderer that is realistic (path tracer). It's a lot harder to have a distinct artistic style that is SOULFUL.

t. cs fag

It seems that most people who work in or inspired by anime are singularly obsessed with girls and have no hobbies outside of fantasizing about girls (Not even real girls, only those they imagine). If there is another uniquely anime-trope in a game that has nothing to do with girls, girls will be aggressively inserted in to it until the other trope is near completely obscured by detailed drawings of female flesh. (See Xenoblade 2)

It just feels like a lot of the Easterner's work has lost their creative edge, since so much of it is applied to further pushing the envelope of what is and is not pornography.

you're right that you need a healthy male/female balance for a good workplace, too far in either direction and it's a hellscape

you shouldn't try and defend nepotism though, even if it's been broadly applied to networking in this case. It is definitely attractive, and is undoubtably a means of finding good employees. It undermines the core precepts of modern civilisation and the values that people are raised and educated by, but hey, who cares lol

You are confusing art with products. Anime girls, fanservice and all the trash is made for business sake, not art. It's meant to sell. It's the fast food of art so to speak. It's not mean to be art, it's meant to make a profit.

There's probably someone somewhere making actual art, not a product. But in the age where everywhere is littered with ads, you'll be hard pressed to find actual art instead of products, since the artist's art is a niche thing that doesn't have enough money for advertisement.

Yes and yes.

So what I'm gathering here is that perfectly replicated reality leads to the death of an art form, whether print, tapestry, film, or video games. Yet every art form follows the path of imperfection to perfectly created boredom.

We pushed too far and we killed it. But would it have been art created if we had just stayed making crude Bayeux Tapestry, when we knew we could do better? What art form will we destroy next?

Investors

Unless your game looks cutting edge, you don't get investors. Normies like their realistic graphics, sure, but I think they can be open, on occasion, to different artstyles. But the ones pulling the strings won't have that unless you have like some big artist name attached to the project.
People went to see Spider-verse, sure it made a third of what Spiderman Homecoming did with half the budget but bet your ass every person that saw it enjoyed it greatly just because it was fresh. People like alternative artstyles if they look good, and they are cheaper too! Companies are just scared that they will get their funds pulled from, it's too risky.

I thought you were saying the Bayeux tapestry was shit because it wasn't realistic.
Also btw realism doesn't lead to the death of an art form, it just leads artists to seek more than just technical perfection in their art. In western art history, this ironically lead to artists going back to this shit (which was itself drawn in this way as a deliberate stylistic decision).

If you unironically like isekai then the problem cannot be fixed

>draws lighting on face
>looks better
No shit brainlet, now put that model in an actual environment and it will look like shit because all that lighting that he drew in the texture will not match actual light. Turn her away from the light, she'll still have that gloss on her lip and that twinkle in her eye.

She looks generic as fuck.
Not to say she doesn't look boring in the original, either, but still.

What did that post have to do with isekai?

I don't give a shit, visibility trumps all. Gigantic might have looked neat but it was a god damn clusterfuck with all the eye-raping ability effects clashing with all of the other unchecked, blinding colors.

The original looked like shit not because of lighting, but because of the texture and her face shape trying to make someone 'realistically' plain.

isekai is the premium example of shoving cute! girls into media so that otakus can get their cocks stiff now that battle harems are dead

Generic is preferable to ugly

Obviously. Don't get me wrong Aloy looks okay, but the "mobile game" graphics look fine due to the style

Which is why you'd need the proper lighting designed around this style. You think you can just plop any model into some RTX fueled nightmare and it must look fine because the model is fine?

It's all pretty pretentious if you step away from it, but you gotta admit that in the days of copy-pasted assets in the latest Unreal Engine where you just throw a bunch of particle effects to make something look fancy, you can feel the sentiment.

Seeing as it's such a stupid interpretation of his post, I wanted to see if you were merely trying to defend the sort of show you enjoy watching (i.e. isekai). It seems I was right.

I feel this way about men and women equally. I'll take an ugly character over generic characters any day. Ugly people do exist in real life, you know. You should be intimately aware of this.

user you're depraved.

The post is literally claiming that the Japs are putting in cute girls and those cute girls eliminate/destroy all other attributes of the property. That's such a painfully retarded viewpoint with no justification or argument to it that it doesn't deserve anything but mockery. That's why I asked you if you really thought it was the girls that made isekai terrible, and not the recycled plots, generic character designs, OP protagonists, and litRPG obsession, among a host of other little things that make isekai such a tired genre. I could have asked the other guy if he really thinks the secondary gacha system hurts an otherwise fine game at all when it has next to no story role, or if he's really so pathetic that having females in your party somehow invalidates the game because there's a romance subplot. What, like literally everything else? How about Xenogears, which is about as woman heavy and in which Fei's romance with Elly has about as much plot relevance as Pyra/Mythra's with Rex? Ultimately neither of you ever really had any kind of argument and sound like a five year old boy afraid of cooties, and you got the kind of replies you earned with those non-arguments.

Oh no! I attempted to get inside user's mind, but instead, he got into mine! Lucky for me, that is my fetish.

>Making an argument for realism
Nah no thanks, give me something actually appealing any day. You're not skilled enough to take a look at 'realistic' humanity and do anything interesting or profound enough, you're just using it as a virtue signal.

>Ugly people do exist in real life, you know
Yeah. So? They can fuck off out of my $60 vidya.

>Syphon Filter
What specifically? I never thought those games had much going for them visually speaking, though I did always enjoy the neon-green night vision mode whenever that came up.

What kind of retardation are you on that you think ugliness has to be realistic? Or that rejecting realism means embracing an idealised all-beautiful candyland?

I said 'appealing,' fool. You're the one saying to use ugly people because they exist in real life, that is literally an appeal to realism.

Art is a reflection of human experience. Ugliness is a part of that experience. Even hardcore aestheticians understand that the aesthetic of ugliness cannot be discarded.

>When will the realistic graphics meme end?
Probably never. The reason we have it is that it's extremely easy to make and just as easy to justify the price tag. Alternative graphics require creativity, creative people expect equal compensation and also require a decent amount of time to make it happen. And on top of that, you need multiple people who can copy that style to design and animate.

Go play Go Home and Grow Home. Ubisoft's more creative teams are capable of some good soulful stuff.

It's almost as I thought. You're butthurt he chose your favourite game as an example, which is why you deliberately misinterpreted his post. You'd have to be blind to not see how much space cute anime girls take up in Japanese media (sucking up anything resembling quality).

For isekai's part, the girls are just a symptom of its greatest flaw: serving wholly as a vehicle for escapism. People who have lonely, difficult lives don't want to think about life or see something ugly, they just want to have a cute girl tell their self-insert that they've got a big penis.

>forgetting Spyro

No, my complaint is that neither of you has actually formulated an argument around your conclusion, you just declared it and made an accusation. I disliked his example because it was a bad one he didn't even try to justify, whereas yours was thrown out there without a single example of the girls ruining an isekai and not the dozen other little things I mentioned. Both of these are non-arguments, and you have the gall to act smug about being retarded.
>The girls are just a symptom
Then why the fuck did you focus on them? You don't open up whining about your weakest 'symptom' without any arguments, you utter moron.

holy fuck this guy is a Hack.

The point is that you don't have an argument, because all you said was "Ugly people are better because real life and realism is good" Why is it good? Then you just said "Muh human condition" well, what exactly do you even have to SAY about the human condition? You realize that device is evoked in storytelling for a REASON and not for its own sake, yes?

What level of retardation are you on to ask what I, someone who is not making a videogame, have to say with my ugly models (which I am not making)?
This is stupid, user. Apply yourself.

It's obviously just a bunch of references, just random bandit looking dudes which will be recognized by people who know the respective franchise

Which is obviously why I brought up Guerrilla as well, user. You don't have anything to say about it, nor do they. Nothing in their game is some attempt at philosophy, she is simply ugly because they wanted to make her ugly as a virtue signal. An appeal to realism is a key part of that.

I've seen this kind of thinking before.
>Why are you asking for interesting themes etc. from something as pathetic and bad as videogames?
I don't understand it. Why can't I ask for my videogames to be better than they are? Why would I settle for shit made to appeal to the kinda tard who thinks a non-cute girl in his vidya is a personal affront?

he could've at least changed a feature or 2. Remove the scar on the chin, a different color on the bandanna.

In what way is her ugliness part of any theme in Horizon, and what about it makes it interesting? Come on user, why did they make her ugly?
>Videogames are better because there's ugly people in it
Is basically all it amounts to without some real reason for it, some real statement based on that ugliness.

But that would ruin the fun, and you'd be here complaining about the character being traced instead.

Yes, I'm asking for a real reason for people to look as they do. If you bothered to remember what this comment chain is about, it's about generic vs. ugly. My entire argument is that making the decision to have an ugly character is better than sort of ending up with a generic one because you're not really thinking about anything.

I haven't read a comic book since 2008, it's all recent to me

She also pilots a giant eva spidaman mech

Then why the talk about 'themes' and 'realism' and 'the human experience'? If you want to dial it back to the first post, just own up to the fact that you prefer ugly characters because it makes you feel superior. Don't drag that other crap into this if you can't argue with it.

There ya go again. You really can't help yourself, can you? I guess assuming everyone's got a secret agenda to their arguments makes losing that much easier, eh?

Anything else is invites the rest of the conversation, which you kept dancing around until you just referred back to your first post. Or I suppose that other guy could be right and you just get off on ugly people.

My complaint is not girls existing, rather it is the saturation of them. A different response mentioned the difference between "art" and "products", and I feel that idea best sums up what I am referring to. Just like one can immediately tell a F2P hero shooter with a tacked on battle royale mode is only intended to extract money and nothing else, many people have no illusions about the nature of those F2P turn based rpg-inspired card games that has a cast made up of every moe stereotype under the sun and includes a gambling mechanic as a centerpiece. The signs I refer to are not subtle or difficult to spot, they are necisarily over the top and excessive, else I would have no ground to stand in my complaint.

I used Xenoblade 2 as an example of cute girls being stuffed in to areas that have a distinct flavor otherwise. This is because the reaction to and content of that game is also over the top. Xenoblade 2 is Japanese sci-fi, or more accurately science fantasy. It has a bunch of fantastic concerning creation scenarios and what it means for the people in the story, much like the other Xeno games. As well, it also involves robots and references to mecha tropes, which is a VERY Japanese set of tropes. But, when the game was out and popular, much of the discussion was not about the work's properties as a sci-fi piece...

Because it had a large collection of cute girls and harem tropes, such that anything else was difficult to see. Who cares about scientists paying the price for playing God when you spend much of the narrative with a pair of bosom in your face? Everything else becomes necesarily less important than satisfying one's lust. If I am incorrect, I will gladly be set right, but that is the impression I came away with.

not him, but what if i'm designing my game's main character to be a lighter skinned black girl, late teens, knowing that she'll be praised by"progressives", just sexy enough to be waifu'd, but still keeping her mostly clothed. i feel cynical knowing that i can do this for free brownie points from the crazies, even though they won't buy my game. all i want is a "dark" and "mature" (see: majora's mask, but with red blood, and naughty words such as "damn" and "piss") game, with a link-esque character (silent protag, a set canon personality, but can be made goofy or serious by the players, by wearing edgy armor, or a funny propeller hat). does a character design like this overshadow everything else, because it ends up being "the game with the cute brown girl"?

>Signs
Wow, what a complete and utter departure from 'girls push out other tropes from media.'
>I used Xenoblade 2 because.. the discussion was not about the work's properties as a scifi
That's not the fault of the female characters, you sperg. That is nothing more than a complaint about the audience, not the girls, and not how they effect the game. It's you bitching that Yea Forums is horny. What a shocker, am I right?
>It was difficult to see because Pyra
And now it's more a reflection on you, if you cannot fucking pay attention to the plotline because it has a girl in it and you're stuck on her boobs, then that's your problem. The comedy scenes are never in the way when the game is trying to talk about Klaus or how humanity fucked up, hell, by the time the serious plot kicks up, the comedy is mostly done. Did you feel the same way with Xenosaga, just because KOS-MOS is attractive, despite everything it had to say?
You sound Californian and I hope your game fails, but for different reasons than this guy would.

That looks like fullbright lighting with agnostic specular highlights.

You seem to be bent on arguing about this I did not specify, and are annoyed specifically about me poking at Xenoblade, so I'm not going to bother.

No it does not, because, and this is important: You dom't gamble for the opportunity to play as her. You're not encouraged to gamble for different outfits for her. I doubt there will be a mini-game about rubbing her up and slapping her breasts, and there is not 20 of her all veying for the player's romantic affection (While also being pure virgins who don't actually know what sex is).

I'm using Xenoblade only because you did, as I informed the other one. It's a bad example that you're trying to justify your point with, which is why it's easy to refute it here in this case. Or, at the least, to criticize your statements which now are bent around audience behavior rather than the work itself.

Oh man I love this kind of argument, that whole whining about virginity thing like they have a contempt for the very idea of it when most videogames follow characters who are underage anyway. Are you projecting your self-loathing onto that status, or something? Or maybe some warped idea about 'Stacies' or whatever.
