Why they don't make games with pre-rendered graphics nowadays? It looks great.
muh movie experience
because prerendering high quality is more work than putting together shitty assets.
20 years later and the SNES games still look better because they were prerendered

I love the look of it but I think people who didn't grow up with pre-rendered graphics would find it ugly.
High-res old Rare artwork is fucking great

I miss games with prerendered backgrounds too

This thread is proof /v/ will bitch about anything
>>343191828
because it's cheaper to throw a pixel "art" retarded and people will shill for it

Right looks better.

Faget.
DKTF looked fantastic though.

You chose a terrible example for that. Donkey Kong Country 1 doesn't hold up at all visually, especially if you look at the raw assets that would be used had it released today. All three games had hitbox issues too, and you'd never be able to do the moving dynamic levels that the new games have in a pre-rendered style.
REmake and the later 5th gen Squaresoft games are better showcases for what can be done with pre-rendered graphics.

I was thinking this recently too. Went through Onimusha 1 and 2 at the weekend and they look absolutely beautiful. Think of how pre-rendered backgrounds would look on current consoles.
Just look at the water in this video:

We have the technology to make a real time rendered backgrounds. If you want a pre-rendered graphics, you might want to look at modern mobile phone games.

I dunno pre-rendered gives it a certain style that allows the game devs to focus your attention on camera angles and textures they want you to see. I think a lot is lost when you make a beautiful looking world but let the player explore it themselves.
Sure you'll find some nice looking parts of the game but there's potential to completely overlook them.
For example there was a bit in Farcry 2 where I was just sailing a boat in some open water while the sun when down. It looked absolutely fantastic and I felt sad that I may potentially be the only person to ever see that view.

pre-rendered graphics looks more "deep" for me if that's make sense. it's like an art.
>>343192391
stupid frogposter.
because pre rendered looks like shit unless you make everything else look equally as shit or else the difference between the rendered and pre-rendered assets is very jarring. Pre-rendered won't look good unless you make your entire game look like it was made with technology from the 90's

The 3DS version of DKCR uses prerendered sprites.

Returns would look far better if went HD. TF environments are bland and generic to be honest.
prerendered models seem more colorful but old games made them look like plastic.
I'd always prefer Mario Party with prerendered boards.

Prerendered graphics are muh movie experience
Looks like shit 3D desu

Wasn't Resident Evil R all done in 3d instead of the original prerended graphics?
