If the people who create mods can make ugly games look this good, why don't developers hire them to replace the members of their team?

If people make your ugly game look that good for free, why dont make the game ugly?

>>319341727
You should know the answer. Consoles.

>>319341727
Because it's easy to just take other people's work and improve on them.

In some cases they do, also most artist and modders tend to make it for free but only just to build a decent showcase and references when they look for a job

>Muh consoles holding back PC meme
Fuck off, we both know it's not true. This is a PS4 game.
And what's the best exclusive PC game of this year? Undertale.
Consoles surely are holding pc back :^)

Because modders have unlimited time and can do the artistic path they choose, they also aren't limited by hardware

I don't get what's so hard to understand about this
>>
Because those people are working with tools made for them to mod.
Most modders can't actually make shit from scratch or else they would be making vidya instead of just modding it

Was it necessary to include that?

Yes, it is necessary for you to know just how fucking stupid you are, you worthless sack of shit.

>that autist who thinks most PC players don't play in crappy ass laptops and toasters
There is more than one reason why TF2, CS:GO and Minecraft are on the top of most player PC games
>>
>>319347459
Not that guy but I agree. Fucking consoles. The strip was a little segmented piece of shit because of consoles. It ran just fine on my PC with the mod to remove the walls. People who play on toasters may as well be on consoles.

This is pretty much it. Easier to fix something you think is wrong when you already have a concrete basis to start from and if you're doing it all on your own time at your own pace. I won't make any excuses for a studio's art team but given that they have to design a variety of items with a consistent style without it being to samey all while under heavy deadlines can definitely cause them to just take what works.

>>319341727
I happen to do game development. Time is money and money is time.

Most company's don't have much money, Most artist don't have much money. It's also very hard as most modders don't really have any experience in game development and will often use bad practices and this reflects on your game because they are part of your company now.

The other thing is most companys want to put all their efford into the next game as that's where they will earn more cash from.

Company's that don't, go broke.

I dunno, maybe some people don't have computers that can run these high graphic games? I know I've run into some problems and I don't have $1000 to drop on a better computer.

>>319341727
Doesn't Valve did that?
