They claim it's an old style that's been done a million times, but it's a new style that hasn't been done once.
I've never seen a game that has a distant skybox (castle) and a closer skybox (the town and distant road), where the closer flat 2D skybox seamlessly becomes a 3D world made of 2D billboard sprites when you approach it. It's implied that this would happen all the way to the castle.
They seem to deny what they're actually seeing with their eyes and lazily lump it in with an existing style.
>it's just like Daggerfall!
WRONG. Daggerfall has a normal skybox with 2D billboard sprites that pop in out of no where. The terrain is also not completely flat like Daggerfall.
>it's just like [fully 3D polygon game]
WRONG. It's a 2D skybox that becomes a 3D play space made of 2D billboard sprites. Fully 3D vistas look different.
>it's voxels
WRONG. Voxels are 3D cubes. What are you seeing that suggests this could be made with voxels? The distance would look nothing like a flat skybox and the close things would look nothing like 2D billboard sprites. These retards see a bit of pixelation and shout voxel for some reason.
>it's been done a million times
ok, name one game and post video proof. There's been tens of threads and not a single game that replicates this style.

Same reason why big swarthy cock mindbreaks white women. They’re just so much bigger than small white dicks… And tall, dark, and handsome men are just so much more manlier too compared to white boys…

>>716371759 (OP)
using pure 2d you would still need to use 3d to accomplish this UNLESS you could only walk straight. Otherwise if you moved to the left or right of the path it would appear disconnected if you turned back to look at it. Such a game would literally require 3d. You would basically need to map the 2d segments to a 3 dimensional sphere, which is the perfect use case for kind of math that 3d games use. Without doing the normal 3d transformations the game would either be grossly optimized or very bad looking at off-angles

The technique is called the parallax effect and it's used in many games. Typically, game devs use it on windows to make a flat 2D texture look like it's a 3D room. Walt Disney famously used parallax in many of his cartoons which he show cases here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdHTlUGN1zw

Your game is similar to Arena and Daggerfall. It's a blend of 2D and 3D. The world is 3D, but it uses sprites. In the video, your guy doesn't turn his head, which will break the illusion. Once he turns his head, the 2D textures will turn to face him, the same problem with Daggerfall. This art style doesn't get used for a very good reason.

>>716371759 (OP)
its not even the pixels, there has been first person games with pixel work before. The clip looks good because the composition is cracked up. Lit midground with the big castle in the background. It has a good sense of scale. Wizordium, Hexen or Daggerfall dont have that. Really its a fantasy because the pixel work wont hold up i think unless its some downsampling shader thing

A lot of games using the Super Scaler line of boards did similar sprite layering. Many of them involved similar layered sprites and a lot of them used fixed paths for their gameplay, but desu if I were to develop a game like that webm I'd use other references for the gameplay itself.
Here's a ref of a later Super Scaler game
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvDpogQ0w-w

Programming mastermind Ullililia pioneered parallax 15 years ago
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81wvSiYPVHU

I'm trying to think of the games that used scaling 2d graphics that match what OP had.

The closest thing I can think of is something like
Aliens 3 the gun. Emulation doesn't quite get the distance fog effects right. Check the outdoor stage.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2cqgU4u3-w


Also, lucky and wild because they're fucking awesome.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Er6T1mwV_XA

Fallen Aces uses parallax skyboxes, while also using cel-shaded 3D art. It's probably the best blend you'll get without going full sprite autism like in the OP or Daggerfall.

>>716371759 (OP)
It’s called parallax scrolling. You should have learned this when you made your first 2d sidescroller game… Is it just me or are AIfags always really uneducated?

>>716375090

>>716373809
But there are two Ravenloft games?

>>716383334
I'll level with you
both things are true. AI is mostly slop. useless unless adjusted and curated by a real artist and it will replace artists, because corporations don't care about quality if it means better margins

it can but you still need skills to use those models

>>716383390

>>716383507
That makes no sense though. Customers still want good art in video games. If artists cannot produce art which is better and cheaper to produce in the market, they are not providing value.

>>716383621
music

It's because all art sucks now and going back to 80s-90s art is the peak of art in the modern era. People who have consumed art from this era are nostalgic for it. Think about how Graphics and games have stagnated for the past 10 years at least. Even modern interpretations of 80s entertainment like DnD are tainted (think Critical Role, or just modern DnD in general. Think of Warcraft or Blizzard). This is reminiscent to the way things were.

The reason a lot of people like AI is because video game developers (especially artists and voice actors) have become extremely arrogant and push tranny and leftist politics instead of being apolitical, as well as pushing communistic labor unions that behave like a mafia. So we are HAPPY they are being replaced by AI.

>>716383714
I believe people still make great art
they just don't get hired as often, or they don't have creative freedom.

>>716384067
>which I'd never be able to make in 30 years
That's incredibly sad to say.

>>716371759 (OP)
It's a very kino aesthetic but it is also literally just a linear path. It would take some artistic vision to make sure different areas are also as aesthetic.
And then you need to put a game in there somewhere.

It works the same as the old racing games that was 2D, it's all a predefined path.

It's possible to recreate but I'm too shit on the art side to make it look good. It's basically just using different prerendered sprites as LODs. It also doesn't look nearly as good if you're walking on normal terrain. The videos always generate walking down hill with a castle on a hill which allows more of the scene to be visible.

I genuinely believe that AI is so popular in India and other 3rd world countries because those people never had a real art/animation/creative scene like the west and some parts of Asia have, and they are so enchanted by the thought of creating something that they start to go overboard.

Sounds decent, if a bit generic and trendy. I feel like all these music gen models have serious recency bias which I hate because almost all recent music is pure garbage. Another problem is you can't tweak this. You can't go "Oh yeah that's almost perfect but I want to change this, this, and this note, or this chord." All you can do is basically throw away the whole thing and try again. You're playing gacha with finished songs instead of being able to slowly build and refine toward something perfect.

Someone posted this mp4. It's a voxel based approach with voxels being camera facing quads instead of cubes. You can see how this sort of approach could be further developed to possibly nail the style.

Anything that's done to convert it into an actual game with explorable space and camera control will make some compromises because that AI clip is what the AI hallucinated. It is just a video of a thing that sort of looks like it could be a game.

No, because the perspective and scale in the AI slope are wrong. If a fully functioning castle were actually that far away, it would look different.
So the only way to do that would be to use a skybox with a loading screen when you get close.
You can use a 3D model, but then again, you need to choose between grad scale composition or seamless functionality

Yeah that's why I said you'd inevitably have to make compromises if trying to convert it into a playable space.

Personally I'd much rather see a castle in the distance I can go to than a skybox with a castle painted on it. The castle would have to be like 1/10th of the size for the scale to make sense.

Gaming boomer here, this doesn't mindbreak me at all, I like the aesthetic because it has a classic dark fantasy style, however there are issues with what the AI generated
1) the perspective is off on the hands and their positioning on the screen
2) there's no obvious gameplay, I can play go back and run between towns in Daggerfall to get the experience of this video
3) I dislike the fact that it's portrait instead of landscape
