Explain this phenomenon to me in 368 words

I'll explain in three:

you're a faget

AI art made the magic of looking at a technically impressive work of art go away.
We're playing a boring game with god mode enabled now.

>>719777601 (OP)
New indie game trends like low poly mean the modern shitposter doesn't care to give you bumps anymore

/v/ is dying and only used by people trolling or shitposting

>>719777847
This is true, I exclusively come here to shit on chuds and rightoids. Really easy dopamine hit.

>>719777601 (OP)
Because people don't like modern pixel art. Old pixel art was done on CRTs.

>>719778020
People liked handheld pixel art, which was meant for LCDs

>>719777601 (OP)
If you think about it the Wplace threads were pixel art threads and they reached the bump limit easily

>>719778080
no one besides millenials like this shit. While SNES or Genesis are beloved by people under 20.

>>719778020
>Because people don't like modern pixel art.
Looks great.
>Old pixel art was done on CRTs.
Very few people play old games on CRT's and quite frankly most old games look like ass, only the top 10% are still remembered.

>>719777601 (OP)
Maybe Zoomers don't like pixel art? Lot of us oldfags don't come on here all the time like we use to least those of us that aren't NEETs are busy with IRL shit. There are probably literal kids here that weren't even born yet in 2010 when you first made your pixel art threads.

its just the same image dumps most of the times
even LOL threads get more unique shit

>>719778470
Culture war threads are the same shit every time but the board can't get enough of those though

>>719778132
several of these games are not even proper pixel art.
-Blasphemous is shit and unrefined
-Ninja gaiden ragebound is mixel garbage and wont display at the correct resolution
-Eastward is mixel shit too
-another game called Souldiers is ruined in the same way.
leave it to retarded faggot programmers to completely ruin the hardwork of pixel artists by rendering shit at the wrong resolution.

>>719778538
It's really funny how any game in this pic turbomogs basically all but ~10 indie pixel art games ever

>>719777601 (OP)
cuz back then 3D ruled and 2D disappeared so people had nostalgia
so indie has billions of 2D games flooding steam
and ppl realized good looking art doesnt make 2D games any less boring

>>719777601 (OP)
AI fucking ruined it. You cannot marvel at these things anymore, because you're too busy trying to figure out if its fake or not.

>>719779263
AI can't do pixel art.
it always fucks up with inconsistent technique & pixel size and starts using 1000 different colors. It can't even create and stick to a 16 bit or 24 bit pallet.

>>719777601 (OP)
not enough new material to justify making threads for it.
its why that wplace thing was nearly just deltarune stuff. its the only recent relevant sprite game.

you know what actually hurts? no vidya music threads. thats also a result of most modern soundtrack trends being dogshit. now even something that was known for iconic music like Zelda is muh atmosphere literal nothing and shit like Street Fighter is dogshit soundcloud rap beats now.

>>719779263
lolwut
does AI with pixel even exist? imagine worrying about tis lmao

>>719777601 (OP)
what even is pixel art?

>>719779725
Art made by manually placing the majority of the individual pixels comprising the image

>>719778797
Yeah I'm not a fan of that mixel of "2DHD" shit myself either. It's an art style that only has one limitation - a low resolution - and you can't even stick to that. Effort.

The market is saturated with pixel art indie games. Pixel art is now associated with low-effort cheap bad games instead of high-effort professional retro games. The same will happen to PS1-era low poly 3D.

>>719779725
One of the many modern fundamental misunderstandings that eventually push out the original meanings out of zeitgeist. Today it means a deliberate style used as a selling point as opposed to the original meaning of overcoming the hardware limitations by using simplified and symbolic presentation and letting the player's imagination fill in the gaps.

is this game pixel art?

>>719780136
Technically yes

>>719777917
>This is true, I exclusively come here to shit on heretics and heretics. Really easy dopamine hit.
Zero self awareness

>>719780607
huh?

>>719777601 (OP)
artists do porn instead of pixel art, that's the power of the free market at work

>>719780127
Nice, now post the name of the town

>>719777732
No one eats AI garbage except for certain people that we can't mention.

>>719781512
So the majority of /v/?

>>719779531
>>719779685
AI pixel art is extremely common what the fuck are you people on?

>good pixel art
>bad everything else
Many such cases

Simpsons doom wad has such good pixel art why doesn’t great mods like this get talked about more often?

>>719788380
Shame good pixel artists only want to work on their own games

>it's not REAL pixel art
>pixel art NEEDs to fit the limitations of consoles from the 80s and 90s or it's not REAL
>the super bing bing wahoo box and the smegmastation couldn't display those colours!
>the pixel's not supposed to move that way, that's a springbinglydixel, not a TRUE pixel
What if the pixel artist just wants to make pixel art and isn't trying to ape and emulate the hardware of a specific era?

If I were to start doing oil paint and I started using shades of paint that weren't readily available in the 12th century, does that make me not a REAL painter?

>>719777601 (OP)
The more animated pixel art tries to be the worse it gets. Just keep it simple like Chrono Trigger.

>>719777601 (OP)
15 years ago /v/ was populated with millennials who grew up playing games pixel graphics so it was more familiar to them
