I have taken some time to think about trends and art, Anon. And this is what I have found: Artistic merit is downright worthless if it is not backed up by a solid plot. Let me set some examples.

Early games like Kizuato and Shizuku, whose art was somewhat awkward to say the least. The plot was interesting, thus fans saw beyond it. Games with horrid art like Kana - Imouto has a great fandom that still lives. And of course, games like Higurashi, Touhou and Tsukihime, where the art is a crime against humanity, yet the raging fandom couldn't care less.

While art is nice eye candy, the game will be forgettable if it has nothing going for it. This is what I have come to realize.

Of course, games with good art, good plot and music are the jewels in our pixely world, and should be cherished.
