Games with amazing artstyles thread
Pic related. Any of you fuckers excited for cuphead?
Yes.
Disney gonna sue
I bought killer is dead just because I love suda 51's style of cell shading. I also bought wind waker because I loved the art style. Cup head looks amazing from what little ive seen of it so chances are I am going to buy it and love it.
>>248761020
The art style is Fleischer era. Disney ain't got nothing on this.
>>248760565
Release date when?
always liked skullgrills.
>>248761020

2015, year of video games.
>>248761442Aw, shucks.
I'm just kinda jelly I didn't think of it first.
I've been trying to figure out a graphics style forever for my indie platform game
Muramasa looks fucking amazing on the Vita, won't even lie. I was stoked as fuck to hear about its rerelease.
Cuphead also looks fucking amazing, I can't believe it hasn't really been done before.

The E3 trailer doesn't have them, so they might've changed it
I love a game with good art.
>>248761020
>only Disney did animations in the 30's
The art style is heavily inspired by Max Fleischer.
>>248760565
It looks so fucking good. It's like Peacock: The Video Game.
Shows the importance of a good artstyle over technical power.
>>248761727
I give it a pass because it reminds me of being a kid and being at my great-grandmas and watching old Felix the Cat cartoons on her VHS player.
>>248760565
I can say this is genuinely the first indie game that I think looks impressive.
I hope the gameplay pays up, they claim to be inspired by Konami and Treasure run and gun games from the 16 bit era, if they can actually make the game with such high standards, then this may end up being a really, really great game.
>>248761839
I hope they did because it looks so much better without it.
>>248761867
>>248762079
>VHS player
We just called them VCRs.
>>248761020
Reminds me more of the twisted tales of felix
>>248762089
It reminds me a bit of Mega Man. Hope it doesn't disapoint.
>>248761867
I never liked Dota 2 but the one thing I'll always defend is the artstyle for the map and the overall designs, skins and cosmetics notwithstanding, for the characters.
The Whispered World looks like a Don Bluth cartoon.
>>248760565
>>248761347
>>248761795

I would kill for a platformer with some 30s style characters. Seems like Classic Sonic was the last one to do that.
>>248762237
>implying this game's art isn't detailed sexy as fuck
Fuck you and your bait.
>>248760565
There's something about the old Fleischer artstyle that has the potential to be some serious nightmare fuel. Anybody familiar with the work of Al Columbia?
>>248762281
Who is this semen demon?
>>248762330
My nigga, but yeah Twisted Tales was also inspired by 30s animation, and it definitely wasn't just Disney making them.
>>248762503
i dont think he was implying anything of the sort anon

TV budget vs Theatrical budget.
>>248760565
I don't like that filter or whatever that is
>>248763069
But I mean... animation in general really became stale, or maybe I don't find the appeal in CGI animation, but when was the last time a really good 2D animation cartoon came out?
I can only think of anime, but even anime has decreased the quality ever since digital became mainstream... maybe the only exception being Ghibli
>>248760565
I hope there's a way you can disable these forced visual filters so that you can experience it the real way. Hook it up to a CRT.

How about retro style pixels? I don't think that's been done before.
>>248762786
>>248762919
Lack of competition in the 30s. There were only a small handful of movie studios (remember, back then cartoons were produced and screened theatrically) and they had virtually no competition thanks to vertical integration (studios also owned the cinemas that screened their work). Nowadays, cartoons have to compete with every single other program airing at the same time slot on sometimes hundreds of other channels, and with co-productions, parent companies, etc, they're sometimes competing with other shows made by themselves that air on other networks. Plus, the cost of television production has skyrocketed, and even outsourcing inbetweening and even all animation overseas isn't helping as much as used to even as late as the 80s.
>>248763313
If Satoshi Kon was still around, he'd be making killer Anime with shit hot animation stil.
>>248763313
Look on the bright side, Stop Motion is doing better than ever due to Laika being failure proof with all that Nike money. Just stop watching cartoons made for tv, they're all worthless animation wise (and generally in every other way too). Save your time for more interesting movies like Leafie, anything Ghibli pumps out, and some of those French animated movies, though they can get a little cutesy.
>>248763835
But he's not and he isn't sadly. Paranoia Agent was actually one of the last TV show format animes I liked a lot, god that was a great show.
>>248762281
when are you gonna finish this it looks cute
>>248763594
Better derivative pixel art than deviantart tier bullshit like Dust.

Back in the 80s, a bunch of japanese geeks with very little resources made this, 100% independent:

What's stopping people from doing good animation like that nowday? You don't need money, just passion and hard work.
>>248764340
Because passion and hard work will only take you so far.
>>248764326

I almost give away all of my games consoles, books and movies, etc after watching it. I thought I had to stop with the escapism. I had a bit of a mental breakdown.
>>248764254
I was half joking, pixels are are overdone and done poorly, but I still prefer high quality snes-era pixel art over HD flash graphics

I don't really play games for escapism purposes so it didn't hit me quite so hard. The one episode that hit me like a train though was the one about the girl, her father and their house. That whole episode made me feel so shitty I couldn't go back to the show for several months. Especially since it came right after the hilarious video game episode.

This looks like a kawaii version of Southpark.

To me it's just people became lazy with all the digital tools available now, but that decreased the quality of animation drastically.

There's a lot more anime being produced these days and animators work their asses off on low budget throwaway shit. There was a controversy a while ago when an animator killed himself after being subjected to 600 hour work weeks, it's insane. The pay is shit too. Most people quit after 1 year and probably never want to draw again.
>>248767137
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7d7_00yufg
It's actually worth watching, basically it's just the point of view of a social working dealing with cartoon characters.

A fucking Jin Roh reference in Scooby Doo?!
Definitely getting Cuphead when it comes out, mostly because of the art style.
My favorite game visually is Kirby's Epic Yarn, but I also love the look ofSkyward Sword.
>>248761690
Oh lord, this game is fucking gorgeous. I WISH Dragon's Crown had devoted as much attention to detail, color, mood, and atmosphere as Muramasa did.
>>248769971
there is one for NES and it's really good.
Very easy, but very fun and comy, the kind of game that's fun to beat in one sitting.
I want to learn to draw (cartoony style). What is the best book to learn from?
anyone else get fucking creeped out by those pacman eyes?
>>248770303
Learn the serious and hard shit first, then you can learn cartoony.
>>248769907
Neat! That's a really nice effort and piece music.
El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron
>>248767983
Mystery Incorporated was fucking awesome. What a goddamn gem.
Those last few episodes were intense as fuck. I recommend anyone who's even mildly interested in having fun and enjoying some Scooby Doo to check it out.
Same goes for anyone interested in Batman: The Brave and the Bold. Both were rare moments where a show is firing on all pistons from beginning to end.
>>248762919
It just depends on what Cartoon you watch.
Technology has both allowed us to have greater and worse animations.
Most television productions just don't have the same budget and time as a more theatrical release. I mean keep in mind with a lot of these 1930s cartoons they were short and were not expected to be weekly episodic just something to put at the start of a few films to entertain the audience.
Love or hate the Legend of Korra but the animation work done by Mir is just simply stunning for the amount of time they spend on it.
>>248770231
I'll check that out. Man, Felix is a great property to breathe some life into. The modern consoles would definitely do it justice.
>>248770567
>>248770303
There is no book. Just start drawing, copy pictures you like, eventually you'll git gud... or not, but doesn't matter, keep trying.
I have this book by Toriyama though, I'd reccommend it, but more for the humor rather than actual utility. The guy reccommends you get magazines with lots of cute chicks to copy and draw them.
Actually it has some technique stuff in it but it's not too serious.
I have a couple "serious" books with things like proportions, perspective techniques, etc... but really, all of that is useless unless you get comfortable drawing and get your own style.
Many great comic authors never studied.
>>248770385
This is the best advise. A lot of the style comes from understanding how to draw form and volume in shapes.
When you master that you can begin to understand how to draw a more cartoonish look. I recommend to >>248770303 take a few drafting lessons then pick up the book: The Animator's Survival Guide.
>>248770050
Kirby's Epic Yarn is among very few games who perfectly realized their aesthetic. Some really creative and skilled people worked on that game.
>>248770567
I like how one screenshot doesn't even come close to describing describing the different styles used throughout the game.
>>248770385
It's best to do both at once I found, as you learn one you supplement the other.
>>248770303
And more than anything else just draw and draw and draw and eventually you'll get better.
>>248770303
I wish I had some relatively okay advice for you anon.
Pic related, my first drawing on /v/3 years ago.
>>248770303
Learn to draw seriously then you just kindof veer of into drawin what you enjoy. There is no shortcut in art, a shortcut here leads to long delays later.

Draw and practice figure drawing and structural drawings and study and draw exaggerated cartoons at the same time and then do it A LOT over and over. And then YOU TOO can be underpaid for long hard hours!
>>248771609
No one thought it looked bad, they just thought it looked too childish and not like what they thought a legend of zelda game should look like.
They wanted a edgy zelda not a comfy zelda.

>>248771981
Unless it's done noon-profit!r
>>248771981
Yeah, and it will never be released officially either, because of all the characters and also the ELO music.
I'd give my left nut for the LD, it's the holy grail of japanese animation and I think only a hundred copies or so were made.
>>248772145
Not that theres anything wrong with that, WW just looks good in its own right where that would look good in its own too.
>>248771981
I miss this style from Japanese cartoons, I really can't stand the modern look
>>248772318
>where that would look good in its own too.
Go look at Twilight Princess and then get back to me on that
>>248772145
I get you. Considering that there's no real voice acting, it's amazing how expressive WW's artstyle was. No zelda's really topped that specific aspect.
I think it will always be immortal, still find it amazing to look at
>>248771719
>Drawing to put food on the table
Should never be done unless it's a career you love.
Drawing is a passion, not some cheap job, it should be treated as such so you don't grow to hate it.
>>248771548
I KNOW WHO YOU ARE
I've totally fapped to your stuff before.
>>248772513
Some stuff still does it more like that, not EVERYTHING is super moe. But it does sell better.
I happen to like both though.
>>248772601
Hexadrive did a FANTASTIC job with Okami HD. That game is going to look fucking great even in 2024.
>>248768016
I was looking at that, but it looks like it's multiplayer only. Is that so? I love westerns, but I suck dick at most competitive multiplayer games, so I tend not to play them.
>>248772640
I agree, that doesn't stop you from being underpaid though.
>>248772513
I agree.
I still like the occassional out of place anime that gets released every now and then, like Trapeze, Planethes or Tatami Galaxy, but anime pre-2000s just have a charm that just isn't there anime.
80s anime babes are the best.

>Isn't there anime

>>248772513
Probably because it looks too "clean". It lacks the obvious touch of humanity only seen in handrawn cel animation. I mean look at Akira! So much visible effort! It's astounding!
At least that's my understanding of why people dislike it.
Personally, I do miss it, but can live without it.
Also I fucking loved Gundam Unicorn 7. Just throwing that out.

>>248772710
I'm so burnt out on the same conventions. It's been more than 10 years now.
It's gotten to the point that seeing nostrils or circular pupils in hentai gets me rock hard.
So many people neglect certain facial features that they've turned into a fucking fetish. There are more girls with DICKS than there are with noses now. Think about that.
>>248772710
I hate featureless moe faces so I tried to avoid it. Someone responded with "it looks too western" and I was confused, whats appealing about the moshi moshi look, I cant stand not giving a character a nose and actual cheeks. I Keep feeling like Im getting away with taking shortcuts when I dont do itbut Im actually ok with how it looks when other people do itit also makes characters indistinguishable at times.
>>248767850
Do not do that.
Say what you want about Yoshi's Story (personally, I think it's a highly misunderstood game), but god damn, does it look beautiful and smooth as fuck at 60fps.
(screenshot is all fucked up because emulation)
>>248773359
Well I think this picture in particular looks western because the line thickness with the face and the way the hair is drawn.
It looks great, don't get me wrong, but I think that's the western they're talking about.

>>248772513
I swear just this afternoon I was channel surfing and on one of Disney's spinoff channels (Disney XD I think, the one where half-decent cartoons go to die) I saw this one show that I had to look up based on its art style. It looked like a weird sketchy modern slightly-westernized Shin Chan sort of style. Obviously it was from France.
I think this was it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoUDqSRF_8A
>>248773359
>>248773337
Well, I think if the softer style is supplemented in other areas, it's still visually engaging. Especially if they use it for the sack of a wide array of exaggerated expressions.
But yeah stuff like lucky star is really tiring.
It's all about how you use your resources. If it's simple detail AND stiff and static there's nothing to like.
Dustforce has a great visual style
>>248773787
I remember back then when FLCL was new, everyone insisted FLCL was just like.. what was its name... Excel Saga....
I honestly couldn't see it.
FLCL set the standard WAY too high. I remember buying the (fansubbed) VHS for FLCL OVA 1 and thinking "man, so THIS is how anime is going to be from now on"
Boy, I was wrong.
>>248773651
They implied it looked bad because it looked western. Thats what disturbed me, does anime have to look stereotypically moe to look good now?
>>248771981
>You know what's really fucking sad though? There will never be huge crossover shit like this ever again due to money grubbing assholes demanding cash for appearances.
This actually made me tear up a little while I was watching it. You can't just make shit anymore, you can't just gather a group of likeminded individuals and pour your lives into something like that with wreckless abandon. If something like that were made today, it would get shot down the moment you came up with the idea, and even ignoring that no one would sign up to do that with you because they'd fear for getting sued, losing their jobs, etc.
You can't just MAKE things anymore, there's so much superfluous complicated bullshit involved. Even the indies that try this philosophy to this day don't dare step on any corporate toes if they want to make it in their respective industries. Even non-profit content gets neutered like this, it's a goddamn shame.
>>248773337
Look.

>>248774060
If they implied it looks bad then it must have just struck a nerve with their personal taste, it's drawn fine, damn well even.
Moeshit is really popular these days and it's incredibly easy to draw, so why stop?
>>248774193
I think he means "Kawaii girls with huge eyes and featureless faces whos only distinctive feature is their hair"

My advice to you is to never EVER stop drawing. Force yourself to do it even if you can't. no paper or pencils? Cut yourself and draw on the wall with your blood or piss on the floor or something. just DON'T. FUCKING. STOP. DRAWING.
I used to draw throughout school and was really good. I was hoping to get into making vidya as an artist and animator, but then I graduated and life fucked me over. Been a NEET for over 5 years and haven't touched a pencil since.Heavily considering suicide.
Don't be like me, become great, follow your dreams. Don't let nothin' stand between you and your destinyas a moderately successful furry porn artist.

K-On... I don't know other names but I'm sure I've seen other dozen anime that look like Lucky Star on /a/.
Also, Digi Chara.
>>248774296
Sounds like anything made by KyoAni post-Haruhibesides Free!
>>248774324
Say, how well are you at that whole drawing/animating thing?
I know a game that needs some fucking art fags with the high high pay of compliments!
>>248773728
Forgot something very vital in proving my point.

There's a lot of shows that don't have that "style".
>>248774018
>>248774324
You don't need a pencil, I for one have learned to draw in MS paint with a mouse recently, much in the way a man with no arms learns how to play guitar with his feet.
>>248760565
Anyone play this? Best Mickey Mouse game in my opinion.
>each level is based on different Mickey Mouse cartoons and art styles
>got actual Disney animators for the animations
>amazing soundtrack
>hard difficultly.
>>248774358
K-on looks nothing like lucky star
>>248774568
But then what would he complain about?
>>248774741
That game was very popular when it was released, I had the SNES version.
Actually, I wouldn't call it the best disney game because gameplay-wise it wasn't the best, it had your average slippery controls of many Virgin-made games, I think Caslte/World of Illusion or the Capcom mickey games are better gameplay-wise, but yes, the art style and animation was delicious.
>>248772601
a pity it looks only "good" in motion. the stills are gorgeous, but when you see the thick black outline shifting around everything, and how many objects are just sprites that rotate to face the camera, it kills part of the magic.
>>248763021
Other than some faggot cat costume for Drow, the art for Dota is preeeeeeeeetty consistent.

people tell me that I'm not allowed to like this game, or that it isn't even a game.
but fucking hell is it gorgeous.

I'm not even one for artsy games and I think Journey is a fantastic game.

Why do people defend tweening? Is it because they watch Wakfu and become blinded by waifus?
>>248775509
>>248775502
people say it's just a movie, as if you didn't have full control of your character at all times. as if there weren't those glowing whatevers to find, and a reward for doing so. as if the "you can jumpfloat as long as your scarf" wasn't a valid mechanic, coupled with the "refill your scarf by touching any magic fabric". as if leapfrogging off your partner, avoiding the stone dragons, and navigating some of the areas didn't require active participation on the gamer's side. as if establishing a rapport with the other player, despite no avatar customization or gestures or communication aside from chiming, jumping, and sitting wasn't an amazing experience that I've felt in few other games, or times in my life.
>>248776025
Tweening's been a thing in animation since animation begun. It's not something new.

Abzu is one of the games I'm most looking forward to from E3.

The "underwater" section of Journey was probably the best area in the game, so it's great that they're expanding on that.
>>248776025
Because it allows certain artstyles to actually work when animated. A problem with hand draw animation is that designs can be hard to keep consistent, especially if what youre animating has a small budget. It allows low budget projects (like an animated series) to stretch their animation budget.
Also Wakfus art style is pretty nice, thats why I liked it at leastnot even the characters, the backrounds are fucking incredible

>>248776414
the best art styles are stolen art styles!
>>248776414
nah its ugly as sin. Like the designers dont know if they want to make it look realist or cartoony so they just mashed both together.
>>248774560
Holy shit that trailer music is so Metallica it hurts. As in, he had to be thinking of Metallica and ONLY Metallica when he composed this.
Also I'm still astounded as to how they managed to get the shading on those models so fucking perfect that the camera needs to take a different angle for you to realize it's not sprites.
>>248776151
I'm pretty sure computer generated interpolation didn't exist before computers

Neither a fan nor hater of the series, but 2 seems to look better overall.

That's different, inbetweening before digital was literally just "filling in the blanks" for 2 stills.

I love Dota 2's visuals, the map is fucking beautiful. Valve has fucking amazing artists.
When I imagine a new Valve game using Source 2, the new TECHNOLOGY it will have and everything made by Valve's great artists, it's going to be one of the best looking games ever I think.
>>248777429
Can you say that again without the dick in your mouth, please?
I've always liked how the Civ games looked.

IS THIS THE REAL LIFE?
>>248773552
Honestly, I think that Yoshi's Story has a nearly timeless art-style. The (for the time) high-resolution sprites and rotoscoped stuff was pulled together for a single style. I actually prefer the game over its predecessor, but that's mainly for nostalgia, style, and exploration.

I love how his post gets single out, while 90% of the thread is Nintendo dick-sucking.
Classic Nintendogaf.
>>248785469
Nintendo is the Disney of gaming: people love Disney's art, same with Nintendo.
>>248786104
You missed the point of my post completely.
>>248786194
I was just saying people love Nintendo, even on /v/.
>>248786280
Problem with /v/ is that you're only allowed to love Nintendo. You can't like anyone else, and you can't not like Nintendo.
And then you guys wonder why /v/ gets called Nintendogaf.
>>248784075
it's alright, there can never be enough Daicon IV love
This game looked real nice. Simple but effective.
>>248786428
>>248785469
You can leave anytime you want if you get so easily offended like that.
The reason you were insulted was because of your shilling "Valve's great artists, Valve is so great, I admire Valve's art so much", stop sucking that Gabe dick.
Also there has been minimal Nintendo games posted ITT and the thread is actually about a game that's exclusive to Xbox One and PC, idiot.
>>248786280
Why would you not-a like me, /v/? Get N or get-a the hell outta.
>>248786637
You seem to be mad, anon. Calm down
