A distinct and memorable art style will always be superior to the "muh photorealism" that modern game devs are obsessed with.

Obviously
But it's the woah bro these graphics are so real that impresses normalfags so

wow what a totally novel take on video game graphics, you're truly a pioneer

>>718007438 (OP)

The original JSR is way better than Future.

>>718007438 (OP)
the cartoony games to realistic games these days is 5:1

slop

>>718009350
why?

Reminds me of those normies who buy Mortal Kombat games so they can watch the fatalities once.

I wouldn't say way better, but I did personally find the spray painting mini game more engaging than just holding down the button in Future. Was glad to see bomb rush did a compromise between the 2. I will say the character designs seemed much better in the first game for sure.

if it only had richer gameplay... it was too simple and got stale so quick.

Why not both? Half Life nails the photo realism while still keeping It's own recognizable style.

play it with mods. BRC has one of the largest mod communities for an indie game.
most are cosmetic, new maps, and multiplayer, but there are a few that allow you to tweak gameplay.

How do I make "A distinct and memorable art style" for my 3d platformer about depression, when I have no artistic talent and can't even make any type of decent assets myself?

Bonus points for schizo answers.

>A distinct and memorable art
Ever notice that whenever people say this they're talking about a cel-shaded game that looks exactly like every other cel-shaded game?

>>718014562
nice. that game looks like my kingdom hearts clone.
here's a webm of the combat

>>718014562
just copy other people 1:1 until you synthesize something nice

thats the whole point behind cel shading. its ages well, its primary drawback is the texture quality limitations of the hardware like xbox having only 64mb of ram.

>>718014672
Yeah Wind Waker looks just like this retard

>>718007438 (OP)
I think some games can pull realism off 10x better then others, but for realism to work, you need style to supplement it.

MGSV, Arkham Knight, and Battlefield 1 I think have the perfect blend of realism and style. They still pass as modern AAA slop standards to this day despite being 9-10 years old.

>>718007438 (OP)
also helps that rollerblading looks way better fluid animation wise than skateboarding

>>718009350
and bomb rush is better than them both

>>718015770
bomb rush has a good foundation but the scoring system is awful

>>718014562
Learn how to write shaders and make the most fucked up shit you can think of.
If anything looks good, go that direction.
