Thread 724664254

Post ITT if you noticed how bad colors in games have gotten

Feels like neither 2D nor 3D, and neither indie nor industry devs know how to make nice, soothing palettes anymore, when they used to be basically standard

Post either an old palette you liked, or a new palette that irked you (or a new palette that's an exception)

And it's not a game-only phenomenon either

Play better games.

You think neon green grass looks good? >>724664343

>>724665106
It can, in the right context. It's not particularly bad in any of those images. The main issue you're actually probably having is that the slight blur and shadow from non-digital processes no longer exists in a post-cel-animation world unless deliberately applied,which makes the separation between background painting and foreground layer a little more obvious.

>>724665653
I disagree, I think neon grass looks fake and unsettling by default

I seriously hope you're not implying the left looks good. I always thought that game's overworld was ugly as hell.

NNK is one of the best looking anime styled games ever and one of the last to have tasteful colors

>>724664254 (OP)
Have you even played Ni no Kuni or are you just another shitposter complaining about old and new games you don't play?

>>724669109
>NnK
>ugly overworld
You have less than 0 aesthetic sense.

>>724670187
>>724670503
Just look at how ugly it is with those glaring bright highlights. Something wrong with you if you can't see it, well maybe they just blinded you. NNK was the beginning of the end even if it was mostly decent looking.
Eternal Sonata was probably the last JRPG I liked visually and even that one was borderline.

I pretty much have to use reshade in every single game. The contrast and colour saturation is just awful.

>retard discovers the difference between earthy and more saturated colors
Congrats. NnK looks like a Ghibli anime and it's beautiful.

holy shit name a bigger downgrade

like what does this filter add
fuckin desaturates the cool green windows xp grass and desaturates the cool mountain ruining the look of the island
like we know its far away dude were flying around it

>>724671893
>retard doesn't even know what I'm talking about
Where have I said anything about color?

>>724672275
You're complaining about bright highlights while posting a game that used an earthy palette. You are an idiot.

>>724664254 (OP)
bright vibrant saturated fortnite colors is not "soothing". Soothing is Rune Factory Frontier, Twilight Princess, SoTC, Demons Souls, RE4, Suikoden 3, Monster Hunter Freedom

>>724670423
OP is praising NNK though

>>724674131
Those are more subdued, tending into brown and bloom in some of the games

Even stark cartoony colors are a spectrum, something like Spyro looks far more pleasing than Fortnite

>>724674138
Yes, /v/ has a problem with shitposters who complain about new games and praise old games they don't play. The one who makes collages is especially bad.

>>724674461
What does that have to do with anything

>>724674710
I'm pretty sure the picture on the left he used is one I posted, and it seems like he's another retard trying to argue about games he hasn't played.

>>724675642
Colors are a pretty self-evident topic though, I haven't watched Pokemon since the Johto seasons and I can see the degradation in >>724664343

>>724675759
>Colors are a pretty self-evident topic though
Shitposting about games you haven't played and trying to have arguments about them is a problem on /v/, and people who go so far as to make image collages for games they don't play should kill themselves. They're a cancer on this board.

grim as fuck, hate antisoul gas me

It's funny but anti-soul gas is a symptom and not the cause or the culprit, the same lack of contrast is plaguing 2D games as well, meaning there's something inside devs these days driving them to make ugly muddy games without them understanding why, it just so happens they chose anti-soul gas as their tool of achieving it in 3D

>>724676996
not just video games, tv and movies too. someone is teaching them this.

>>724677178
Grim, both literally and figuratively

>>724664254 (OP)
why does new game looks worse than old game

>>724677209
>>724677242
how will we know it's the past if the colors aren't washed out??

>>724678325
incompetence

>>724678430
they had colors back then

>>724676160
DONT POST THIS ONE
IT HURTS TOO MUCH
GIVE IT BACK CAPCOM!!!!!! GIVE IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>724678518
bullhsit we have the photographics to prove it

>>724678518
The middle ages were awful and had no color and everyone was a slave and worked all day and was miserable because they lacked diversity and modern values.
