/vr/ - Retro Games

People exaggerate things. Even if they grew up right during these games, they remember and focus on certain things that differentiate these games from every other era, which is the low polygons. It's why a lot of hipster 00's early 10's "retro" 8-bit aesthetic games barely looked like actual 8-bit games.
But the bottom games you posted were really high budget titles that came out later in this system's life. The top games were early titles by people who were still trying to figure out the ps1's capabilities, King's Field was a launch title in Japan iirc and Bubsy was made by a small team with no frame of reference for 3D platformers. Why the fuck wouldn't an indie dev, who's probably an amateur at literally everything, not be inspired and drawn to the look of King's Field? Plus the aesthetic is just unique in a rough and simple way. It's not always about trying to replicate the actual experience of being 1997.

Did you know that this version of King's Field is actually King's Field 2? Always confusing when discussing the US and JP releases.

I was interested in playing the King's Field and Shadow Tower series before knowing there'd be any girls in it at all. Cute girls are just a bonus on top of a good dungeon game.
The games are worth playing in my opinion, and implying their only appealing aspects is visual treats is a bit of a stretch if you ask me.
I'd sooner remark about any of the other graphics than the character models. Hard to deny early 3D graphical transparent swords don't look cool. But truly it was probably the exploration aspect I enjoyed more than anything else in the games. Spooky dungeon. It was always exciting to see the new areas and their themes.

Cute girls.
