Are blocky graphics acceptable for indie games in 2025?

why I have the feeling that all of this actually happened somewhere in china

>>713361390
it never happed
it's all faked by AI if you are too blind to see

>women

does anyone fucking hate zoomer captions it makes any video frustrating to watch

>>713361534
No, the editing cuts every 4 seconds for a reason, this hijacks people's attention span and is basically crack for brains.

Mr Beast was the one who figured this out, that's why he has 100 million subs. You can watch any video and notice he's cutting every 4 seconds to maintain pace.

is this from the channel of that asian who constantly shares some death stories and starts every video by one woman/man did the thing?

I hate it, but you need to understand that they aren't going away because it is predatory by design and exploits flaws in human psychology.
>dopamine micro hits: each new word that appears on-screen provides a tiny reward. the brain gets a small hit of satisfaction which creates an addictive loop that is hard to break from.
>attention anchoring: the words appearing on screen one after the other attracts your attention and makes it harder for your eyes to wander like you might do when reading a full paragraph.
>urgency: rapid-fire text creates artificial time pressure. brain interprets the quick-paced information as "important" which triggers a DON'T MISS THIS response that keeps you watching.
>cognitive load reduction: shorter captions require less mental effort to process and makes it easier for retards to absorb the information
>sense of completion: by starting to view one of these short-captioned videos, your mind has "started" something which makes it very hard to break from it unless you see it all the way through to the end. This is basically an advanced form of news cliffhangers or coming up next sequences on traditional television.
There's more than just this but like almost everything else in 2021+4, this design is purely predatory and seeks not to improve content through legitimate means (higher quality, higher density, better researched content, more informative content, etc) but instead is tantamount to "psychological rent-seeking behavior" that takes existing content and artificially boosts its engagement potential beyond its natural limit.
The worst part of it is that even if you are 100% aware of all this shit and actively try to resist it, your brain is still susceptible to it no matter who you are or how above its influence you think you are. It is literally engineered to work on everyone, smart or dumb.

Wait chinese peop[le aren't pink blocky blobs that glide around?

Reminds me of a story I heard once.
>mother has 3 toddlers
>she's bathing one while the other two play
>one of the kids injures the other with a pair of scissors
>hears crying, find the kid bleeding
>the kid that did it knows he's in trouble, runs off to hide
>she puts the bleeding toddler in the car and drives to the hospital
>the misbehaving child had hid behind the car and got ran over, die
>bleeding toddler taken to hospital, died
>the toddler she was bathing, she forgot all about him in the tub, he drowned and died

I love this shit man. It's like some jeet or indian who grew up in a stable goes
>this really happen in another village my cousin tolds me.
and then makes a video about it
the juxtaposition between it being a 3d animation yet obviously being the most backwater hick fantasy story you've ever seen is great

bonus point if it's some indian shit and it's full of
>but he waste the food because he is westerner
>but she did not appreciate her money
type of jealous shit

>>713361157 (OP)
saar do the needful and eat the poison rice it not waste the food saar
