Seeing this makes me wish that Sega was a competent company in the mid 90's and could've made a serious Sonoc game for the Saturn

That said, X-Treme looked like it was shaping up to be a travesty. Sometimes I wish I could've been the right age, at the right time and right place to have helped create the first 3D Sonic game that didn't suck. But as we all know, life has a way of working out in ways you dont necessarily want or expect.

Phone posting this as a tip to anybody looking to make 3D models in this style biggest secret that took forever for a smooth brain like me to realize is that when you render these graphics one of the things that makes them look the way they do is that they are Unlit/Shadeless. Everybody talks about having low pixel count textures and little anti-aliasing and 1000 other things but your nodels will never get that Mega Man Legends look if you dont use a Unlit/Shadeless texture.

Man, I wonder how is it that MML basically mastered the anime aesthetic with the max polygon limit of the psx being like 5k per frame, nothing today short of the newer Guilty Gear games comes close to feeling "anime".

[Anonymous No.7017745]

>>7016734
That doesn't apply only to the MML style, most of PS1 games had flat shaders. Most N64 games had really simple shaders where surfaces would get darker the less perpendicular to the screen they were.
Another really important thing you might want to know is that because of limited vram, a lot of games used vertex color instead of textures on most polygons, or used tiled textures together with vertex color to add variety. Vertex col was also used to shade scenes, being an order of magnitude cheaper than lightmaps.

Wizard bullshit perspective correct texture work. I would argue they figured out "Cel Shading" before the actual Cel Shading technique became a thing. Legends 2 cleaned it up even further

[Anonymous No.7018516]

>>7018504
The cel shading is baked into textures tho, the models are unlit.

[Anonymous No.7018865]

>>7018516
That's why I put it in quotes. It's not the real thing, but they took a lot of pains to make it look good, arguably to the point that it looked better than contemporary games that actually used the real technique, MML2 in particular.

Do you not know what low poly means? Stop being a retard

[Anonymous No.7019137]

>>7016841
>>7016957
Maybe you're right. I only bring it up because in most 6th gen games the shading is the same baked/vertex lighting as in 5th gen games, and there are lots of good examples of the same elegant, efficient modelling. You see the same techniques being refined.

[Anonymous No.7019591]

Dunno if this is a great place to ask, but I'm trying to locate a .gif or a .webm I saw around here once. If I remember correctly it had this industrial complex on the ocean, with cranes and pipes and scaffolding and all that jazz. Very washed-out color scheme. The camera flies by it and I thiiiiink focuses a bit on like... A typical JRPG-styled character, but I don't remember anything about them (or if they were even there) since the environment was so good.

Does this ring any bells for anyone?

That's the exact opposite of low poly. Millions of polys, nearly photorealistic look. Only reason you can even tell it is an old game is the weird angular shape of the tables.

I think of Doom 64 more as some sort of 'gaiden' entry, and either part of Final Doom as the potential sequel to Doom 2. I like Doom 64 a lot though, I actually didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did, but it has a lot of good stuff going for it in spite of what it lacks from the previous games.

It doesn't have the Revenant or Arch-Vile monster, which is a minus, but instead they make the Pain Elemental the worst bastards ever to make up for it. The part in The Void where you get beset by multiple of them from different angles, coming in through the borders of the map, that's really cool, and really intense.

um... ps2 was sub 200k poly at best, tekken 5 characters has 20k polys,

crysis for pc had some scenes that had 4.5 million polys

inFAMOUS: Second Son says its rendering 11 million polys for full scene, and while I dont doubt it, most games try to use as few polys as possible for scenes and you can get great effect out of far less, here are some of the more large ones

nier-2million
ff 15- 5 million
fallen spirit-11 million
star citizen- 30 million

games aren't really pushing poly count anymore, for non structural models we have gotten more than far enough, and for structural we have tessellation which can easily smooth things (almost never used that way though)

While I agree that ps2 is not low poly at least be correct on what they could do.

[Anonymous No.7024316]

>>7017657
any arcsys game feels like anime, but it all comes down to shadows and texture expressions

modern games have shadows that instantly you recognize as 3d models, arcsys fakes the shadows in their games to be more aesthetically pleasing so it hides the 'this is obviously a 3d model' effect. most games say fuck it and just let shadows happen.

but that's also a by product of the games being 2d fighters.

Shenmue had very lowres models for NPCs, like 300-500 tris. The non cutscene Ryo model is 1500 tris while the cutscene one is near 3k.
Also they swap hands for interactions or when you talk to npcs.
t. been fugging around with the original model data.
