Natural Doctrine
Demons and Dark Souls
>> Witcher 1
>only the witcherer 1
what
>>321556546
Bloodborne or any souls game
>>321556546
Witcher 3
Gothic 1 and 2.
>>321556546
Off the top of my head this year has Bloodborne and SOMA
SOMA has probably the bleakest atmosphere and story
>>321556546
>Dishonored
>what else? console shit like gears doesn't count
make up your mind

>>321556838
witcher 3 is colorful as fuck, there is no atmosphere like in wyzima
>>321556546
Stalker SoC
just don't play with any of the stupid mods that make it bright and sunny with pink sunrises for some reason.
half life 2?
>>321557003
>it's colourful so it can't be bleak and depressing.
the fuck
I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream
The Swapper
Fallout
Talos Principle, occasionally
>>321556726
They turned up the brightness for Witcher 2 to give it an ethereal fantasy feel. In Witcher 3, there is a nice constrast between the bright colorful nature and the bleak lives of the peasants due to the war. I just installed the STLM mod that tones down the brightness though; this looks better.

>>321556671
well, yeah. How is that contradictory?
>>321558827
No but it's not colorful either. At least not the places that are actually bleak and depressing.
Santa Monica and Hollywood from VtM:B definitely. there's this mood of everything being past it's time more so than you see in Downtown or Chinatown. The rain and music help SM especially.

>>321559639
It most certainly is colourful. Tribal war nignogs love putting on brightly coloured clothes when they run around shooting each other. Africa itself is a colourful place - brightly coloured sands, rich blue sky, lot of greenery in some places.
'Bleak and depressing' is not a scientifically measurable light wave interference, anon.

STALKERThis is from a screenshot
F.E.A.R, Asscreed 1, and that one FPS similar to F.E.A.R in graphics where you wrenched hobos' heads in subways and scanned evidence using a camera and other detective shit.
>>321559902
>this is bleak and depressing
Ok
Armored Core usually features grey bleak future industrial sites and cities.
>>321560348
You mean Condemned.
>>321556546
Sickdark games?
Add in Bloodborne
>>321556546
>tired of nintendo kid colors in this generation
The same generation dominated by "photo realistic games with browns and greys and a piss filter layerd on top.
Games made by Slavs, Souls/Bloodborne
>>321556671
I live in Eastern Europe and can confirm that it looks way more depressing here than in the screenshot.
>>321557003
use ambient occlusion and download a sweet fx dark preset. Also turn off that nasty ass sharpening filter holy fuck.
>>321556546
Disciples series.
Eador series.
The Void.
Pathologic.
Practically anything from Slav devs has a 50/50 chance of being depressing as hell.

You know I wasn't talking about African villages where everything's fine, fag. I mean the sort of shitty run down areas where armed gangs in women's clothing run around shooting each other for whatever dumb tribal reason. It's colourful but it is certainly bleak and it is certainly depressing.
Find a picture of some African war where everything has suddenly become less colourful for some reason.

If it's colorful it's not bleak you fucking retard. You don't know what bleak means.
>>321556546
Demon's Souls.

>>321561826
Bleak doesn't mean a lack of colour you dumb cunt.
>(of a situation) not hopeful or encouraging; unlikely to have a favourable outcome.
If all you care about is the colour and not the actual tone of the game why not just play Mario in black and white?
Gee-tee-ayyy 4. I liked how it was all dull, like nikos output on life
>>321556546
witcher 3 sure doesn't look like eastern european game
>>321559282
>SweetFX presets
I got news for you, friend. You can add those to literally any game. OP was asking for games designed specifically with this art style in mind. Modded shit need not apply.
>>321562063
You can tell someone is a clueless mongoloid when he just goes and looks up definitions that support his shitty argument. Why don't you post a colorful image that you think fits the description of bleak so I can laugh at your dumb ass?
>>321562873
That isn't sweetfx and OP didn't say anything about "specifically designed". Kill yourself dipshit.
>>321562925
>YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS
>Okay I'll go look it up so I can see what it means
>NO DON'T DO THAT
Nice counterargument, my friend.
Still waiting on your evidence for human situations magically sucking the colour out of environments, mate.
>>321563182
>but muh modded atmosphere still counts!
Glad to see I managed to offend you. Stay mad, faggot.
>>321562429
Joke's on you, Eastern Europe DOES have some of those fairytale castles and fortified towns still standing.
>>321556546
my memories of most of those are dusk-colored and beautiful.
You could try the original Silent Hill trilogy.
>>321563295
You googled bleak and went down the page ignoring like 5 sites that showed definitions which ruled out Africa, such as lack of warmth, dark, cold and lifeless vegetation. Nice going moron.
>>321563327
Not sure why you think I'm offended or mad, just because I called you out for being wrong and a dipshit, which you clearly are.
>>321563505
>>321563581
Yes, anon, because it was the most applicable definition if you want a depressing game. None of the others I skipped over mention colour though, you fuckwit.
What, is
>(of an area of land) lacking vegetation and exposed to the elements
the definition you prefer? Do you think desert levels in Mario are bleak?
Just admit, you're using "bleak" to mean you want "brown n grey n bloom for mature gamers such as myself."
>>321563815
>80 million
I don't think it was that big.
Also both of those look good.
>>321564361
>>>80 million
>I don't think it was that big.
It was 25 million for development and 30 million for marketing.
>>321564361
it was.
>>321564512
Ok, so then why does this poste r>>321564498 claim otherwise?
>>321564235
Google images "bleak"
SO MUCH COLOR
Face it you're a fucking retard, just stick to your mario and zelda threads you shit eater.
>>321561815
You probably know but just in case,
http://debofnight.andcuriouser.com/
>>321556671
I can confirm this because I also live in eastern europe. But it's only bleak and gray in autumn and winter.
>>321564629
I claim otherwise because >>321563815 is a joke image making fun of Witcherdrone's favourite criticism of Dragon Agethe wheat.
>>321564361
that's not the original picture
the original picture is a dragon age 3(?) screenshot in witcher 3's place
>>321564361
>>321564498
>>321564629
Google witcher 3 budget retards, it was $81 million
>>321558838
I tried playing that and it was complete fucking shit
>>321564659
>You're a retard for googling the definition of bleak, anon!
>Now behold my killer argument! Google IMAGING bleak, pulling random images from the web to prove my point!
Fucking wew lad. And yeah, almost all of those are photoshopped to be greyscale, so I guess my assumption that playing Mario in black and white would be bleak enough for you was right, huh?
And talking of Zelda, Majora's Mask is actually a perfect example of a bleak but colourful game. It doesn't matter if you like it or not, I personally don't, but the situation is undeniably bleak.
Relatively dark atmosphere. Pretty good game, too
>>321565159
>so I guess my assumption that playing Mario in black and white would be bleak enough for you was right, huh?
Not if you actually look at the content of the images, idiot.
>>321565620
I dunno anon, the first Mario game doesn't have much vegetation. There's some hedges and a few flowers but that's it really. Are you sure you don't want to just play through it in black and white? I really think it would suit your mature, bleak tastes.
>>321565957
So funny, I love that mature meme nintendo fans love to use against people who don't like their games. You are the MLP fanbase of vidya.
>>321566151
Not even a Nintendofan, friend. My point is if all you care about when it comes to a game's atmosphere is its colour scheme you literally might aswell play Mario.
Got to love the nintendo meme underages use when people tell them they're not as edgy and mature as they want to be.
>>321564958
Ok now how about you shut the fuck up, fuccboi?
>>321566307
Sure not a nintendo fan at all, so far you've only mentioned Mario in like 5 posts. Nobody said colors are the ONLY important thing in bleak settings, but you clearly can't read and just want to shitpost in a thread for people with different tastes than you.
>WOW SO MATURE SO EDGY SO BROWN AND BLOOM YOU GUYS GO PLAY MARIO AND ZELDA
You are a huge faggot.
>>321566719
>you've only mentioned Mario in like 5 posts
Because it's the least bleak game I can think of so it's perfect for my point that bleak =/= grey.
>Nobody said colors are the ONLY important thing in bleak settings
Then why don't you actually try and coherently explain what you think bleak is instead of just whining about how you don't like bright colours in video games?
>just want to shitpost in a thread for people with different tastes than you.
I like gloomy games as much as anyone, but they don't have to be bereft of colour and vegetation and constantly raining.
>You are a huge faggot.
