ITT: We post games with god-tier art styles
you go first OP
>>344441123
>>344441123
is that WoW?
because WC3 had a 30000000x better art style
>>344441123
Lol ,love being reminded how superior my taste is to most plebs(you included)
Amano is a god
>>344441123
pic unrelated?
looks like a mobile game
Still think this game is gorgeous.
Actually Shiny games in general are really cool. Messiah and Giants.
always loved Nocturnes style
>>344441448
What game? Google isn't helping
>>344441123
I really think that WoW's art style is 60% of the reason for it's success. Everything just looks really good and polished. I can't really think of a bad looking area in WoW.
People can hate on it all they want, but it's really appealing and has a lot of effort put into it. Retards think WoW looks like a mobile game when WoW DEFINED that style of hand-painted textures and stylized forms.

You can't even afford a pair of rune boots?
Anything vanillaware
>>344443526
What the fuck is up with those proportions
>>344443526
Muramasa is pretty
>>344443312
Runescape pre-08 is eternal
Bloodborne is pretty much an aesthetic overdose but I still love it.
>>344443526
>anything anime-art styled
fucking weebs
>>344443526
Dragon's Crown has ugly proportions and you should kill yourself.
>>344443679

This is the worst screenshot of Sonic Heroes you could possibly post.

Can't forget that food.
Pretty much anything by ACE Team.

>>344443312
Any games with graphics similar to OSRS?
>>344444514
I love their designs. And because I'm that type of guy they make me forgive most of the faults.
Abyss Odyssey was great too.
>>344442250
I really like DDS too.
Kaneko pls come back
>>344444694
/v/scape
i don't what anyone says i love this artstyle
>>344443312
>mythril boots
>>344444947
forgot to add the word "care"
>>344444947
serious mismatch between the character and the building.
>>344444947
Came here to post this actually. The HD version is a little heavy on bloom, though.
>>344444859
I would buy a new console solely for a SMT console RPG with Nocturne/DDS art style
>>344444947
>jaggies
SMT IV
Bloodborne
>>344445231
The ocean is pretty hard on the eyes during the day because of it. Night time is gorgeous though
>>344441418
It's practically the same from another perspective though.
The game itself was dildos but damn, did Castlemania LoS look nice.
>>344445987
which thread is the get
>>344445987
>>344446089
How new?
>>344441313
sonic barrels headlong into a giant pile of broccoli
El Shaddai
I will always love this artstyle, no matter how shit people may call it
>>344447083
People call it shit? it's the best looking PS2 game and the HD remaster is the best looking PS3 game
The Lego Movie game actually being (almost) completely made up of Lego bricks, including all the effects, was pretty nuts.
>>344447370
Isn't the HD version rendered at 4k or something?
>>344441123
What game?
>>344447907
I played it on a 1080p tv and a 4k tv and I didn't really notice a difference
underrated aesthetics
fuck you, Five Nights at Freddie's
>>344448069
Looks like Legion
>>344447985
You don't see those cool pre-rendered graphics anymore.
>>344444341
Japanese is trash-tier cuisine wrapped up in ceremony and self-importance
Half of that looks godawful.
>>344447985
My nig.
>>344441123
What game is this?
>>344448397
Honestly even FNAF looks pretty good. Scott's fetish for mechanical bits and worn down scenery is beautiful
>>344444672
Why would she all you need to do is sleep at a inn and your fine or eat some food
>>344443312
The graphics are the reason i never played Runescape when all my friends told me to
I regret nothing
>>344444672
my sides
Might just be the nostalgia talking, but this game's aesthetic style seems to transcend age. It just looks so good and crisp.
I don't think that SC2 looks particularly bad in a general sense but they definitely mishandled that game's art direction.
>>344447370
best looking ps2 game? Try valkyrie profile 2
>>344441674
>le muh superiority xdd
>>344447857
Came to post this. Say what you want about the gameplay and story, it had an amazing aesthetic

>>344441123
A friend just recently got me to play this. I immediately fell in love with the art.
I love the art style, one of the best things about it, along with the music,
>>344449098
The graphics were the best part. You could easily argue that 2010 RS and 2007 RS were essentially the same exact game with just some more updates, but the graphics and ui made it feel very different.
>>344449341
Okami has a timeless art style. VP2 is definitely one of best looking PS2 games though
>>344441674
How come people like you never ever post anything on your own?
If your tastes are so vastly superior it should be easy for you to prove it.
best-looking Genesis game of all time

the only thing that I see in that image is muddy brown textures
please explain how this is "good"
![Rayman-2-The-Great-Escape-mac-Screenshot-3[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/Aw6u4DS.jpg "Rayman-2-The-Great-Escape-mac-Screenshot-3[1].jpg")
I like rayman 2
>>344450395
Not him, but Rockstar has always done a superb job with lighting, even their more bland settings (GTA) still have great aesthetics. Sucks for you that jaggies and aliasing is all you see when you look at a Red Dead screenshot, but their games still look far more "real" than a lot of other games out there.
>>344450345
Guild Wars 2 has such great art direction. Shame the game is going down the shitter for real now.
Prove me wrong.
>>344451430
>>344450345
I had fun with the exploration and PvP, the haters can go choke on a dildo
>>344441123
Pathologic, I really like games that take place during fall.

Are they still all over the gay salads for living story? Or do they actually care about dragons now?

Lisa and Undertale are fucking nothing alike besides the Mother inspirations, but they're both god-tier indies imo
>>344449532
that game has the best artstyle of all time no question
>>344451597
>the haters can go choke on a dildo
Sounds like you beat them to it
>>344448302
Because the PS3 can't output 4k. It's internally rendered at 4k and downscaled to 1080p (and then upscaled back to 4k by your TV)
>>344451762
I unironically love Undertale's battle screen with its stark white battle sprites. They look like something from the Apple II, which I haven't seen used in a super long time aside for White Face from imscared. The character portraits in text boxes are also great too, super expressive.
The overworld is too inconsistent to be good though.

This screenshot would have looked a lot better without the dumb exclamation point for crossing the road there.
Motherfucking Third Strike, son. Street Fighter 3 is GOAT.
WoW's zone artists and music department are still putting in work after all this time, despite every other department giving up and going through the motions, or actively having no idea what they are doing.
Good on them.
Almost makes me not regret buying each new expansion.
>>344445471
>Playing WWHD in bed at night while it's night in the game
I have never achieved a level of comfy greater than that.
That said though, daybreak in the HD version is honestly orgasmic.
>>344453623
I don't mind. I actually like the exclamation marks in the game. The game isn't about exploring at all so having the exclamation pop up near anything you can do is nice
I really want to play this game. I loved the previous one, but I have heard so many comments about it being sjw trash.
Is it really that bad?
>>344453976
Too bad the only zone you're going to spend time in will be your garrison.
>>344454265
I only level up my characters and then quit.
Maybe come back to do LFR just see some of the new zones.
>>344448160
I cannot say how much I love this game
Sadly there will be no sequelever

Wow's nice.
>>344451494
Smash 4
>>344456867
Whats that??
>>344441773
had an art book by him once, was beautiful coffee table book. Lost it in a cross-country move :/
>>344449532
Was looking for this one, definitely deserves to be here. The soundtrack is completely amazing, too.
>>344443981
Eh it's nice at first but extremely samey
>>344457419
King's Bounty.
>>344457419
King's Bounty. Nice game if you are into HoMM type of gameplay.
>>344455737
Jesus CHRIST it's like they decided to throw Metroid and Contra in to a blender withno finesse whatsoever

Can you post the original?
Yours is all squished vertically or something.

Artwork and soundtrack were fantastic

WoW predates mobile games being an actual thing. Unless you count solitaire and blackjack.
Is there even another game so gorgeous? Btw can't find legit scary demons anywhere else.
>>344454262
It is. You can just watch all interludes on youtube and only them.
>>344448623
It's too bad the game itself fucking sucks.
>>344458701
>made by a studio comprised of people from all over the world with no studio working from their homes in completely different timezones

HOW DID THEY DO IT
>>344451597
>>344451430
>>344450345
GW2 was one of the few games where I actually felt excited to explore. I really hate that there's so much wrong with the game otherwise cause it is beautiful.
>>344458910
What last thing? Strange Journey was the last thing he drew for and it's still in his style, and he (sadly) was only the scenario writer for 4.
>>344459704
God damn did Ori have a good soundtrack.

Not him, it basically is that. With some atrocious bosses.
>>344459997
I was shocked to find out the cover for the Japanese physical release was illustrated by Kaneko. I had to check like 4 times to make sure my friends weren't fucking with me.

>>344449341
Would have been better than Okami if it didn't have that fucking haze filter over everything at all times.
I fucking love NMH's character art.
>>344463527
Splatoon's art direction is the best thing Nintendo's ever done. And I like Nintendo
Vanishing of Ethan Carter is just a walking simulator with a tweest. But it does look beautiful.
mechwarrior 3 was amazing
>>344441123
>that godawful painted texture at the stairs
The overusage of painted textures in the later expansions of the game is really offputting. They always end up looking so flat and contrastless.
>>344459704
>hurr durr Unity makes game look bad
Will this retarded meme ever die?
Radiata Stories' art plus the music is really something.
I keep meaning to take some good screenshots of this game. There's hardly any online that show off how good it can really look.
>>344443312
I've played this game long enough to convince myself that it isn't purely nostalgia - the artstyle is genuinely great
>>344447907
>>344456245
This is actually a myth. A 4k downsampled game wouldn't be so blurry.
>>344463527
It's so fucking good.
>>344463857
Art style of the game itself is kinda bland-ish, though the cel-shading it has really works for it. It's not as crazy as killer7 but it does add to the game's atmosphere. But the character design is some of my favorite in vidya.
Anyway, posting one of my favorite art styles in a game ever.
>>344470369
Good taste, my man.
>>344470369
The environments in NMH2 were pretty good. I can't comment on the first game since I only played it on the wii when it first came out.
>>344451027
It's a shame humans look so plastic-y in GTA V. Really looks great otherwise.
>>344444444
>>344470581
Thanks. MP is the shit. Also Splatoon and NMH.
>>344470838
Maybe 'bland' was the wrong word because neither of the games look bad really. It's just that everything looks so ordinary, which I think was the point. It was all about the juxtaposition of the mundane world and all the crazy shit you do as an assassin.
>>344461525
I always hated how cluttered this map looked but otherwise yes.

Just about every Lucasarts point n click, but especially The Dig and Fate of Atlantis.
>>344448623
This so fucking much. Best art style from Daedalic.
>>344454906
Yes. I don't know much about the game, but this has a story that stands alone pretty well.
>>344459462
You suck.
It's elder god-tier point and click puzzle, though it's not surprising that the plebs won't like it..
Epic Yarn/Wooly World.
Honorable mention to Rainbow's Curse.
I aprove of these hand crafted aesthetics in my comfy platformes.

>people thinking WoW had good art, lore, characters, music, etc
Could be nostalgia, but I really like how Cultures 2 looked
>>344449323
indeed. SC1 is timeless. Cept for that dragoon pathfinding.
i really enjoyed the look of this game. i have this horrible dread that the 2nd one is going to such cause that fat fuck doesn't have people to tell him to not put a shitty idea in it.
>>344454891
Did they ever find his sister?
>>344478318
i have been wondering this too. i haven't heard anything and its been months.
>>344450345
>>344451430
>>344451597
It's a shame it wasn't as good as the first one. I still have the art book lying around somewhere.
>>344478421
I feel bad for the guy. He gets fucked over by EA then his sister goes missing.
>>344478625
reading about his life makes you wonder.
that dude has had a hard time.
still one of my all time favorite games from the 6th gen.
i didn't play any other odd world titles did they cross over with this one or is it pretty much its own timeline?
>>344460418
Well in that case he's just imitating the game's style.
I guess he did it because of Vergil and the DMC3 deal.
>>344460418
Damn, he fixed Trish then. And suddenly I can see eyeliner on all the characters
>>344448785
>one of the only games of Journey to the West
>its complete shit
I hated Ninja Theory long before the DmC shit. Speaking of which DmC actually didn have some nice environments. Shitty looking characters as usual, but at least they did something right for once.
>>344454262
You won't even play it yourself because this place has you so convinced it's nebulously 'sjw'?
C'mon man it was dirt cheap this past steam sale. At least use your own goddamn brain when considering whether or not to give it a shot.
>>344478308
The best part about this game is how each environment is both radically different and original
>>344477490
is that the real life G-man?
>>344450345
>>344451430
>>344451597
>>344459793
Arenanet's art team is their best asset, by far.
Even in the original, Daniel Dociu's art direction and talented concept artists like Kekai Kotaki made Guild Wars look beautiful despite the technical aspects of its graphics being pretty bad. GW2 is on the GW1 engine, it's dated, and really the graphics aren't that good when you look at them from a technical aspect, but their art direction is so good that it covers it up and they create an interesting world to explore. Too bad once the exploring is done the game has so many things wrong with it.
It does a Fuckload of QOL things right, and the zergy open world content is fun for awhile and it's what the game does best, but it just doesn't have the PVP of its predecessor and its PVE boils down to "dodge every single telegraphed attack or red circle or you instantly die" So you end every fight at 100% health, gets kind of boring after awhile because there's no close calls and every single fight is the exact same thing. Dodge and pump out max dps. Never really any interesting mechanics. The raids are better but it still boils down to the same thing.
>>344477490
I think that OP's particular pic looks nice, but yeah, I feel about the same
short but thought it was very pretty.
Low poly done fantastically for an MMO albeit a little heavy on the DoF blur.
>No Layton
For shame, faggots
I really like the new look of Yakuza 6.
>>344449323
>Somewhere in an old PC in storage, are the original models
All they'd have to do is change the render resolution and hit render, bam HD StarCraft.

all a picture or texture has ever been is the illusion of reality, it LOOKS like stairs doesn't it? It doesn't actually have to be anything but a ramp if it can manage to look like it isn't

>>344446037
I thought it was a pretty fun game, GOW rip-off but the bosses were cool and the combat was enjoyable enough.
>Thread about art style
>Weebshit posted
What a surprise.
>>344482665
Beautiful world or not, it is a bit hard to tell with such a small picture.
I love the aesthetic of UT2003/4. Everything is so crisp and clean.
>>344458830
Goes down her pants and up her butt of course
>>344480310
Awful game, art direction (only decent point of the game) started to feel stale before the half.
>>344478869
They're in different parts of the same world. but no i don't think they'l ever cross.
>>344477917
>Cultures 2
thanks ill check it out
The environments are the perfect canvases to house the fantastic character designs that animate incredibly well. Kind of the stand-out stylized game for me right now.
>>344480310
I can tell it's awful just from looking at it.
>>344447083
I LOVE YOU
Not only a beautiful game, but sick ass gameplay also. I sometimes fantasize playing as the bosses in this game, wrecking shit all over the place. Strongly recommend this even if you don't like shmups.
>>344483515
I hope this game doesn't bomb, really looking forward playing it.
Jet Set Radio and it's sequel have a fucking great art style. Too bad Future isn't on PC and there will never be another sequel
>>344483974
It's so fun and I hope it doesn't die either anon.
