But why though?

Because for most of the game he's a 2D paper sprite character, so the model is barely used and there was no need to optimize it.

What a pointless over-design

>>713188076 (OP)
I don't get the obsession with tri counts these days, modern GPUs are very good at crunching through massive amounts of them. Its the least impactful thing when it comes to modern game optimization, it only becomes a problem if a game just doesn't have any kind of occlusion culling at all.

I want to fuck that paint bucket.

>>713188076 (OP)
Well, you can't really optimize round shapes,

Why not?

Doing something complicated when an easier methods exists makes you look like a retard in peoples eyes.

Taking steps to optimize geometry when its totally pointless on your target hardware is making things more complicated for yourself.

What is the point in optimizing a model when there are no performance hits? I can promise you that the Wii U does not drop below 60 fps because of this model

I eagerly await the hour long video from Slippin about people ruining their lives betting on which bird lands on Mario's nose are integral to keeping the game alive.

How many triangles are in this pic?

over nine thousand

As we see today. With your philosophy, most games run like shit like they have for 15 years. When you realize that when devs learn to not let a dozen different inefficiencies to pile up all at the same time tanking the performance. You can achieve more resolution/fps. But that would be pro consumer which cost them money. Nintendo will one day be able to target 1080p 60 fps. At least non hand helds can offer upscaled 4k at 60 fps.

If the model exists in the game files, its wasted storage space. Minor in this case, major in other.

>>713191008
It's simple for people to understand, so even if it doesn't actually matter it's the best thing they have to cling to.

Huh? Pretty much every modeling tool in existence can reduce triangle count with a single click. There's no reason this model needs to be this complex.

>>713188076 (OP)
Because they are making a videogame, for children. If they can add the model to the game and it doesn't affect anything, why would they care how many triangles it's made of?

>>713195815
Taking a step to reduce triangle count is demonstrably increasing complexity in your workflow, not decreasing it. You are wrong.
