ITT 10/10 Artstyles
>>342912901
I wish Amanita Design would update Machinarium with Steam Cloud saving, cheevos and 1080p resolution
Still an great game tho.
wasn't very challenging gameplay-wise and the story didn't make sense unless you'd already read 1/2 Enoch but there's no denying El Shaddai had a fucking GOAT artstyle
Sonic CD
>>342913878
Seriously, this game was a fucking trip
>>342914060
forgot pic
Okami
Viewtiful Joe
Hotline Miami
>>342914089
And one last shot.
The screenshots don't do it justice unfortunately, those clouds for instance are constantly shifting and morphing, it only really makes sense in motion
>>342914309
Forgot the pic, fuck me
>Machinarium
That game reminded me so much of Pettsson & Findus
>>342914901
lel to the nah.
>>342913220
I wish they would do another one like that. A literal 10/10 game
Haven't even played the game, but every time I look at screenshots I think it looks pretty good.
>>342914992
This looks like Angel's Egg.
>>342915549
Nah. The presentation is fucking stellar with some of my favorite art and music in any video game ever, but the story and adventure gameplay are pretty run of the mill, if not substandard.
>>342915923
die
thanks
>>342912901
its a shame this game sucked, it had some cool art direction
>>342916139
Sure, I'll do that eventually.
What's particularly 10/10 about the story or gameplay though?
>>342912901
>Scifi mixed with Hinduism
God-tier
antichamber, anyone?
It adds to the creepiness
The environments are pretty meh I guess, but I've always been impressed they managed get interesting and differentiable faces in an unreal engine 2 game.
>>342918538
They all look very similar to me.
Someone post overwatch and wait for everyone to get triggered
>>342918631
It was released back when there wasn't demand for every other soldier to have extra melanin.
>>342919428
I mean the facial structure for all of them looks totally identical, with only features that could be done with textures like facial hair and eyebrows being different.
>no one posted Don't Starve
>>342919807
cause its shit desu baka sempai famalam
>>342919670
Then here's a better example.
>>342920286
it is not though, maybe you are bad?
>>342920665
Game is boring.
>>342920954
The thread's about art styles.
>>342913878
It's really a shame they spent more time on the art and story than the actual fucking gameplay. The fighting is a fucking chore and the platforming teeters between okay and boring.
Riven is still a fucking gorgeous game even today. Something about those prerendered backgrounds is just timeless to me, they scanned a lot of real life surfaces for the texture work in that game. Shame it's a bitch to get to work on Windows 10.
>>342915840
>Haven't even played the game
Play it.
>>342917538
Reminds me of Tiberium Sun. Both have GOAT styles.
Also
>The Curse of Monkey Island/Grim Fandango
>Limbo
>Bioshock 1 (give us a UE4 (5?) port)
>Borderlands
Shame what happened to it though
>>342913327
Trolling right? Looks like something for a 5 year old. Not saying the game is boring though, never played it.
>>342916730
agree
>>342919807
don't starve is pretty deep in 'pretty okay' territory
>>342922279
It has its moments where the art style works well, but I'm not sure why that guy posted that either.
>>342922404
oh shit, wrong thread.
>>342912901
Trying way too hard to be praised as good.
>>342914897
This might not do it justice but I really enjoyed this game, it's environment, sounds and visuals. It was relaxing.
Really?
No one has posted it yet?
/v/ seriously.... i am disappoint.
Bloodborne
>>342922594
It tried hard enough to succeed.
I don't see a problem here.

Hi Blizzard rep
I like the quirky proportions. Vanillaware in general works here.

>Bought it few days ago from sale

>Fps drops hits in
What a waste. Can you even get around it?
>>342922786
goddman ds3 was boring shit compared to the bb atmosphere.
fucking sucks that so much content was cut out though
>>342922908
>>342922786
>>342922645
Ok good for you. You only needed to post one picture.
>>342922749
I wonder what tools have been used in this, i want to try draw like that too.
>>342922967
Souls in general, really.
>>342922982
another pic
>>342922967
It really was.
It lacked the depth and character of BB, it just felt like a bunch of re-skinned BB assets spread around empty maps.
>>342922609
Undeniably some of the best character design in a game this decade.
>>342923073
I'd say ds1 was equal considering it was older.
>>342923084
Looks pretty boring compared to Bastion/Transistor.
>>342922982
also sucks that the actual game sucks
>2d game with snes-appropriate graphics
>thirty fucking frames per second.
inexplicable. will be glad when the guy dies due to his hatred for and offense against video games.
>>342923007
Why does posting images trigger you?
I was actually going to leave it there, but seeing how you asked nicely, you can have another
>>342922935
I don't even know, I bought iton consolefor cheap since it was bundled with the original and had heard good things about it. Haven't regretted it.
There is a way to get the dlc for free though. Can't remember what it was but it only takes like 5 seconds to do by just changing some lines in the files.
>>342923252
Yeah i would say so. Bastion is top tier mech design.
Irish mythology through Japanese lens works a lot better than you might think.
>>342923437
Is the DLC worth it?
>>342923441
name something better, valve drone.
Has anyone posted dishonored? I'm on my phone.
>>342922967
>>342923103
I also felt this except for pic related, really liked that area
Both really
>>342923538
that looks cool
>>342923359
My favorite is winston. Out doing pixar by a country mile.
>>342923223
I'd kill one of these games with nothing but content at least as good as Painted World.

Did he ever find his sister?
>>342923551
Eh, if you want an excuse to revisit the game sure, you're not missing too much if you don't get it.
>>342923665
Irythll was pretty good, I have to admitt
>>342921248
I always preferred the first one's style. I know they're pretty similar but there's something about one that I always thought made it look better. Maybe because there were less open and barren areas.
>>342923850
It does.
>>342923323
It had locked 30fps but i got around that, but it still drops to 5-10 fps in combat. Don't know what to do about it.
>>342923223
Meh, DS1 looked kinda bland to me outside of Anor Londo, even at release. Souls art style really got good at Bloodborne.
It might not be a 10/10 for most people, but I really like how it looked. Shame the game wasn't that great.
>>342923907
Yeah thats pretty good, as an FNAF fan myself, that game captured the atmosphere perfectly. Still doesn't compare to Overwatch.
how do i fucking play this game im so lost
Was playing this yesterday and, while I can't recommend it as a game, it had a fantastic art style. Especially for early PS2.
>>342924205
Killer7 is Suda's best game, amazing art style and atmosphere.

It's a bit old, but it's still 'up to date'. This guy has videos explaining the basics and the more advanced plays with each race, which is pretty nice too.

>>342915840
It's because Amano, who has done a lot of concept art for FFs, is the same guy behind the character design in angel's egg.
Main character design is a bit wonky but the idea is you aren't really meant to see his face.
>>342925057
Hahaha, liking blizzard's tumblr gaymer shit.
It looks like shit man, get some taste.
>>342925172
Puke.
No doubt the game is good but I can't get past the art style desu.
>>342925057
>hurr no color = bad
>quotes OP as colorful
thats a contradiction, your honor.
wasnt a huge fan of the game but this area i loved, wish more towns, especially in post apoc games, looked like this
>Okami only mentioned
>not posted
Let's fix that.
>>342925590
>>342925617
VJ looks better
>>342925590
You beat me to it
>>342924273
you are in gradeschool still
i liked FE9/10's art
FE3/4/5 are great as well
>>342925057
A good art style isn't required to paint with all the colors of the wind. Some will, but it's not a requirement, and sticking to one or two major colors for each area can be a good thing. Are you not familiar with the concept of setting a tone?
>>342925661
I disagree, but both look fantastic, for sure.

>>342926002
Every map in Commandos was a masterpiece.
>>342926002
I used to sit and stare at these maps for ages when I was younger. Was terrible at the game though. Was able to complete 3 but never 2.
>>342925498
Yeah, FF7, 8, and 9 did have some really good pre-rendered backgrounds. I wish they would make a comeback.
>>342926002
commandos had some good ass maps man
>>342916139
It was the most basic adventure game I played, and I played a lot. Puzzles were extremely simple and they were "puzzles". Not adventure puzzles, real world ez puzzles. If you make a game, you should use the medium.
I love me some gritty art
The original Abe's Odyssey and Exodus had beautiful pre-rendered backgrounds. The whole game dripped with atmosphere and genuinely felt like an alien world.
>>342913327
PM64 looked better for his time
>>342926535
agreed
>>342925057
You have really shit taste, anon. Cuckwatch has a pretty offensive, cluttered, ununified artstyle - especially in its character designs.
Looking like a pixar movie with particle effects out the ass is pandering the lowest common denominator i.e to children's and casual's taste.
>>342922093
I still enjoyed what they were able to get to out, but fuck EA
More Darksiders
>>342926535
And it still looks so amazing. Oddysee's opening is still my favorite.
>>342926535
>tfw still play this every year
Also, this
This would be a 10/10 if the assets were higher quality.
>>342923012
It's by hand, I think. Waterpaints by the looks of it, too.
>>342923012
Everything in the game is all hand drawn, as >>342926864 said
surprised this art style hasn't been used before
>>342926572
Hell, in some ways it was better looking.
>fancy colored and directional lighting effects on the characters that make them look like they're actually in the environments
>TTYD got rid of this and characters stick out like a sore thumb in certain areas like >>342922517
>>342926953
that must have been a fucking bitch to animate
God-tier art style, god-tier everythingbut gameplay.
I've not played this or Kirby's epic yarn, but god damn they look beautiful.
Little Big Planet also, but to a slightly lesser extent.
>>342927081
Oh for sure, i always think that when i see machinarium pics, props to them tho
>>342921003
yeah but the game is shit
fuck off already
>>342921391
Don't worry, it's being remade, albeit slowly.
>>342923274
This game is super cozy
>>342916993

Cobrastan is not a real country.
So bright, so colorful, clean, crisp, and vibrant. It really lends itself well to its SUPERHEROIC atmosphere.
>>342927365
wow, idk what it is but it looks nice!
Pretty much anything Vanillaware.
>>342923128
Decade? Now thats a fucking claim
>>342927296
>>342927328
Was just about to post it too. Hopefully they can keep it up in 2. We've seen a little bit of it but they still have a bit of time till release.

2 looks brighter from what we've seen but it does retain that distinctive old London look to it.
fuck i love me some dishonoured, I'm hype as fuck for 2
>>342927575
>>342927487
Outsider's eyes, I'm getting hyped.
>>342927682
That looks awful
>>342925848
That one will never get old
>>342927412
It's from the banner saga games. One of the few good things to come out of kickstarter. Odd mix of turn based tactics and oregon trail stuff with a pretty cool world and really nice hand drawn art and animationsI hate having to wait 2 years for the end of the trilogy

I love Supergiants art in general but Transistor in particular is perfect.
>>342927871
>someone thinks my shit taste in artstyles is bad?!
>no, no it must be bait, yes, that's it
Your screenshot is as generic and bland as they come.
>>342927606
pre rendered backgrounds are so good
Resident evil's backgrounds look better than some stuff coming out today
>>342927428
Absolutely.
Their games are gorgeus. I even showed Leifthrasir to my dad and his girlfriend and they were both impressed by it.
Until combat started and the screen started getting filled with numbers, anyway.
>>342915060
Bethesda has good artists, the problem lies with the ones implementing the concept
>>342928014
I honestly don't even know where to begin if you're serious (which you're not, since this is a Tibetan knitting forum and all).
One of my favorites style wise.
I always liked the way Radiata Stories looked. The backgrounds look great, the colors look really nice, and all the characters look different. It's one of the few 3D anime style games I've played that doesn't look like crap or will age poorly.
>>342928014

Because nothing says 10/10 artstyle like a brown screenshot, right? RE4 did a lot of things right, its art style wasn't one of them.
>>342913427
Kaneko's SMT games are gorgeous
>>342928717

>>342928717
If Jack can come back, there's gotta be some chance.
>>342928720
>he cannot differentiate between art styles and environments
It's literally basically the same art style as REmake, only with different environments and a slightly different color palette.
You can talk shit about the browns and greys all you want but RE4 predated the brown and grey shootan games of the 7th gen and more importantly, the browns and greys served a purpose: they're there to make the world more grimy and to make the world seem more oppressive. All the brown gives the world you interact in give everything a dirty feel; you feel disgust when you look at examine the worn down, decrepit buildings that look old and busted, its environments hinting towards a dark and haunted past. The grey makes everything look hopeless. And everything looks properly creepy.
Not to mention that RE4 is actually fairly varied in its color palette for a horror game. Thing is, in a fucking spooky game, there's only so much color you can work with. Notice how the Silent Hill and Fatal Frame games have very similar color palettes too.

I'm holding out hope for a revival but there's some tax-related bullshit that keeps SBT off the air, so if it ever comes back, they'll have to work that out.
The Ivalice games look gorgeous, especially FFXII and Vagrant Story.
Yeah, no, fuck you, SS had a fantastic art style.
>>342929749
Anon, that's like the one singular area in the game that actually looks great.
Pretty much the entire rest of the game ranges from above average to mediocre.
Great artstyle, awful game. I had such high hopes for this game..
Unused concept art from The Void.
>>342914701
Looks like a julkalender
>>342929880
Nah, pretty much the whole game looks great.
Can't wait for Nintendo to make an HD remaster that spruces up the game a bit. Then everybody will shut the fuck up once you can play an HD version outside of Dolphin.
Also BotW looks fantastic too. Has a very similar painted look to it.
>>342930225
>Nah, pretty much the whole game looks great.
Really? So let's see another part of the game, then.
>>342914701
