/vr/ - Retro Games

I've said it around here, but I also don't post as much as I used to. It is interesting looking at some of the old pixel art especially in the old calendars. Sometimes things look very crisp and pixely all over..

We get it, you don't understand English. The pride you take in stupidity is surreal.

Modern sports and racing games tend to be far more in depth and technical. If you're a fan of them that's usually a good thing, but I also think there's still some appeal in older and more simple takes.

The devs knew TVs couldn't actually display the games with sharp pixels but they also knew gamers understood that's what they were. It's why the calendars looked the way they did, showing a magical idealized form of the games where the pixels weren't all blury.

What does /vr/ think of retro era pixel art?

>There's no such thing as a "retro" style.

You really need to look up the deffinition of the word again there, friend. Retro IS style. Pixel art done today to look like 80's art is exactly what retro is.

This calendar is not retro. This calendar is a product of it's time. Making a calendar now that is clearly in the style of this calendar from a specific era in time would be retro.

If there's one thing I want /vr/ to understand over everything else it's that "retro" is not a synonym for "old".
