can we discus and share games with unique artstyles here?
Games which look nice despite not having realistic graphics

> look nice despite not having realistic graphics
ask me how I know you're a retarded zoomer
Grayson Martin
i would probably put DQ over Ni No Kuni
tho both styles are comfy imo
Nicholas Walker
whats wrong with enjoying unique looking games?
i get it, you gonna bitch about how all those old consoles have those colourfull cartoony graphics, but fuck you
i never have money to get anything like that as a kid, is it so wrong i want to enjoy what i couldn't as kid?
Austin Lewis
the way you worded that made it sound like only realistic games can look nice and the fact that stylised games can also look nice is surprising
Camden Lee
>despite
Matthew Brooks
There isn't a single game with realistic graphics.
I guess some racing games can reach almost 1:1 if they're on an indoor track, but I haven't seen even those get close.
Btw you are a complete and utter retard if you think RDR2 or a game of the sort looks "realistic". It will look like a cartoon in 5 years.
Nolan Cooper
yeah yeah, I fucked that Title, well as ESL I'm supposed to sound horrible
point of this thread was just appreciation of unique looking games, It's just hard nowadays to find anything with its own artstyle
Michael White
>realistic grafix
>ever looking nice
Fucking underaged board.

Your example is a very bad pick, mister coomer. Yes the enemies and characters are toriyama looking but the rest of the world looks like 0815 asset store shit and doesn't blend well at all.
Carson Stewart
well that's problem with 90% of Japanese games, that environment looks bad, even tho characters aren't that high poly to begin with, it isn't as bad as with textures which are always gen behind
Grayson Rodriguez
ESL?
Dominic Lopez
No, that's Jade
Jason Gomez
realism is the death of art and all that.
Brandon Thomas
Thanks for the clarification. I can finally rest...
Mason Edwards
Robert Butler
depends, renaissance statues were kino
tho at the same time i like Japanese paintings, while looking simple they have a lot of expression in them
Tyler Price
How's this for "unique"?
Grayson Clark
very, unique
there are too few painted like games
Hunter Nguyen
I really like the graphics in Dead or Alive 6
Colton Cook
>Rayman cursed to releasing rehashed run games on smart phones
>the ubi art engine dropped entirely after Child of Light
Fuck Ubisoft with a rusty iron rod.
Connor Long
Preach it, man.
Ayden Scott
Yes
Nathan Garcia
Jet set radio and future
Jack Taylor
John Cox
Ryan Cooper
still wonder how would Remake looked if they tried to use original art style from concept art
Charles Robinson
Getting some obvious ones out of the way:
Okami
Jet Set Radio
Vanillaware games (Odin Sphere, Muramassa, Dragon's Crown)
Yoshi's Island
Kirby's Epic Yarn/Yoshi's Wooly World
For some less obvious ones:
Hotel Dusk
Curse of Monkey Island
ReZ
Killer 7 (moreso in the visual effects like enemies exploding, blood coming out like literal ribbons, and similar effects)
Ryan Nelson
Tons of realistic looking games from a decade ago look unrealistic now. MGS4 was the series going full realism with limited tech and probably looks like anime now.
Levi Thomas
Gavin Taylor
>Okami
One of my favourite games, and the artstyle is so bloody good
Cooper Clark
Wyatt Sanchez
Matthew Howard
this game looks unreal on PC. I uninstalled it though and didn't take any screenshots
Asher Morales
This gen especially is god awful for low budget Japanese games. The environments look worse than they did on N64.
Nicholas Sanders
Posting the king of sprite art. Street Fighter 3 and Yoshi's Island 2 are great, too.
