I'd love to play an x men game with x-men 97 style.

Something that felt amazing in the first 2 south park games was feeling like going through an episode

For a moment there, I thought the bottom one was the newer version. I would be so pissed if they increased Jean and Storm's busts while shrinking Rogue's.

Same. I have no interest in the countless third person over the shoulder realistic action drama games that are all the rage. Give me a colorful platformer. Games should be about depicting what we can't experience in real life!

Yeah its crazy how good looking xmen 97 is. As someone who didn't care for the original show as a kid, the new one looks so good to the point of making me want to at least skim the original.

Also it's a shame that making cel-shaded and/or cartoony graphics is somehow more expensive than the bland drab boring photorealistic motion cap style. Damn the masses for their crummy opinion on anything outside the "photorealism" style

People don't appreciate art. You should maybe focus less on the AAA market. It died long ago with very rare exceptions.

I like mostly Japanese games and Indies. I mean yeah, I enjoyed some western games like Baldur's gate 3, but still

We need more big budget cartoony games outside of Nintendo again.

Tell me about it.

So many comic book characters would have a awesome looking game using the cel-shading and art style similar to what something like scarlet nexus uses.

That indie game mythforce copies what a 80s cartoon in video game form would look like really well and I would be down for a g.i. joe or thundercats game using that same tech.

It means stylized. Unfortunately its gotten to the point where stylized pretty much just means anime these days outside of Nintendo and indies.

Anime artstyles can be great, but western cartoon do not share the same kind of artstyle. I'd say I like the Telltake Walking dead Artstyle for example

AFAIK it's due to lighting engines being more suited to realistic lighting/shadows/etc

Take Dragon Quest VIII on the PS2, render it at 4k and guess what? It looks fucking awesome.

Stylized graphics survive the test of time so much better than more realistic styles.

I love the push for realistic graphics. It's cool to see the technology progress and get closer and closer to real life.

If anything I got tired of the indie market being flooded with pixel graphic games.

Yeah, as much whinning as I hear about AAA games and realistic graphics, there are tons of indie games with "good" art, but mediocre gameplay. I see a lot games online today that seem to great key art or game art, but once you look inside the game is a really poor clone of another indie game.

Truly a brand new world. I still remember the "I can draw cartoonish and realistic" meme with "realistic" just meaning "Japanese cartoon."

I kinda agree with this. I think you can still do a retro styled game with a unique artstyle. Ori games and Hollow Knight being good example of this
