Why is video game box art so shit now compared to old atari box art?
This box art makes Super Breakout look amazing
God damn look at that Dragon, what a fun looking adventure
Box art thread? It really does suck that the older style of box art died out. Old box art had that "fantasy or sci-fi book" style to it. Modern box art has this style that is very formulaic and "videogamey". I'm not really sure how else to describe it.
A Spanish artist who worked on box art of the Spectrum era made this for the Spanish limited edition of Dark Souls II.

Our vanguard has crossed the Scamander unchallenged and remains hidden on the southern bank of the river. Their assault will begin two hours after midnight against Shiver’s right flank, at the same time the Madrigal garrison throws open the Gate of Storms and attacks her from the front.
But I won’t be anywhere near Madrigal when this happens. An hour before the main attack a small group of men and I will head in the opposite direction and strike at the enemy camp alone, hoping to divert forces and attention from the city before the real battle begins.
The plan is to fight our way across a bridge and into the captured village of Comfort. From there we’ll locate the enemy camp and create as much of a diversion as possible.
Every thrall that remains in the camp to deal with us is one less that our main force must hack to pieces at Madrigal.
Because in the old days they needed to convince you that the little yellow square that was wobbling towards the red rectangle was the barbarian warrior facing off against a dragon.
