Not sure what it is, but there's something really cool about pixelated 2D/3D renders from N64 era platformers like this.

It's so abrasively digital and simplistic. I remember seeing my dad play Diablo 2 when I was a kid and immediately thinking it was the coolest thing I've ever seen for that exact reason.

I mostly made this thread because artists like to talk a lot of shit about this era of videogame graphics and I think those people are lame. Like, I see what Egoraptor sees when he calls DKC ugly, but also when I play this stage I can't look away from it, it's wild

Pretty sure some of that honey should be more transparent. This on an emulator?

Also it looks much better in motion, iirc there’s parallax scrolling which helps tons for clarity.

Op might just be a fan of SGI style 3d renderings. Most 3d rendering shit from the 90s was done on these beasts before we all could do it from our own computers using 3ds or Blender.

Sure, they are nice, but they look really bad when stretched to 720p.

What the fuck would he know? He hasn't been an artist or an animator in years.

Egoraptor's artstyle is shit anyway. He has no idea about shadings or nuances.

>> No.4898314

you guys think if someone makes a game with a style similar to these it would do well?

They already did, it's called Five Nights at Freddy's. You may have heard of it.
