GranzonEx posted... This guy literally brought out his 500 volumes of the Encyclopaedia Britannica and flipped through them to copy and paste his argument that a shitty 8 bit system from the 1920s is capable of games better looking than Axiom Verge 2. Imagine comparing the posts I made to some super complicated Encyclopedia knowledge and thinking you are the one dissing me. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! ...

Subjectively speaking I'm not dissing you, Mr. Encarta. Objectively though... everyone in this topic is rolling their eyes at you, and possibly me as well. --- 2 line break(s), 160 characters allowed ... Copied to Clipboard!

Okay I'm just saying like I haven't said anything particularly complex in here If you need an Encarta or an Encyclopedia to understand anything I've said in here you should consider some of your time spent delicately crafting zingers on, you know, learning things --- No problem!

Lopen posted... Okay I'm just saying like I haven't said anything particularly complex in hereThe only zinger here is you going "um ackchyually" and typing up a light novel which I'm sure the majority of the people in here rolled their eyes at. There's nothing complex about what you said. b8 has been through this phase 15 years ago. The fact that a guy like you, probably in your late 30s at this point, feel the need to "um ackchyually" a bunch of old farts about asinine shit like subjective/objective truths is quite sad. --- 2 line break(s), 160 characters allowed ...

I find it moderately interesting that you can predict the exact course of this topic without reading any of the posts.I skimmed page 1 and saw some of the regulars I associate such topics with, it's really not very interesting, so I'm sorry for moderately letting you down --- http://i.imgur.com/l7xxLh1.jpg PSN/Steam - RoboQuote ; NNID - TazzyMan ...

I objectively feel this topic is less about discussing the merits of art and more about what words mean, and becoming weirdly enraged when called out on using said words incorrectly --- http://i.imgur.com/l7xxLh1.jpg PSN/Steam - RoboQuote ; NNID - TazzyMan ... Copied to Clipboard!

masterplum posted... Yeah if there is no such thing as objectively better there is also no such thing as talentThis is from a viral tweet a while ago and it makes no sense. Talent and skill is clearly measurable when seeing how well an artwork achieves a particular goal. But whether that goal is "good" or not is totally subjective. You can be a very talented racist caricature drawer. That doesn't make you an objectively good artist. --- _foolmo_ he says listen to my story this maybe are last chance ... Copied to Clipboard!

looking at a google image search, axiom verge 2 seems better-looking than castlevania 1 and metroid 1. like at the very least there's "more" going on visually. i think it's fair to argue that it's not visually distinctive, but the textures in the art can be more pleasing to the people who are able to distinguish what's going on discussing that specific quality, and whether that's a trend in modern games, is also just way more productive than whether or not "objectively ugly/bad" exists --- yet all azuarc of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness ...

His point is if you think one of the most stylistically unique and medium-defining games of all time is ugly, you're wrong. The modern art analogy would be to say that Picasso's famous works are ugly and he should've stuck to the realistic portraits from his early years. --- _foolmo_ he says listen to my story this maybe are last chance ...

Axiom Verge 2 is nothing like Picasso. Axiom Verge is extremely bland in its ugliness-- I've seen dozens of games like it. Those cookies now those are more like Picasso. Wonderful creations. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah I feel like people think we are saying that people with creative visions expressed in creative ways should be traditionally pretty. No, it's axiom verge 2 is a bland and low quality execution of pixel art. It's nothing like an undertale which leaned in and winked at you that the art could be better but chose not to (And also had incredible music) --- https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BdWiElvIQAAQpBt.jpg ...
