Personally I consider a large subset of old 16bit pixel games to be superior to 90%+ of modern games. As long as you have a pixel resolution (or sufficiently skilled artist) capable of getting across the image and idea, I do not consider it a detractor at all.

Graphics nerds are the male equivalent of faggot size queens, change my mind.
I think it's the equivalent of being able to fuck a fat chick because she has a "great personality".

Funny, but not quite the same is it? There’s no era in human history where everyone was excited for fat chicks because skinny chicks didn’t exist.

The thing is fidelity/clarity in visual communication is much more valuable than 'realism' or whatever else garbage they try and push. It's been this way for the last say 10 or so years for sure but the AAA studios still haven't caught up.

i thought horizon forbidden west sucked ass so don't really care about the franchise anymore but Sony is so fucked up now, if Guerilla is working on a GAAS Horizon multiplayer game 100% and has no plans for Horizon 3 in the next few years that means their retarded ass trilogy has no ending probably this generation and they will release another concord level shit ass GAAS game that dies immediately, having burned another $300m+ on a DEI shitty project



the leaked art "style" for the horizon mp game looks as bad as concord

The overall aesthetic of Horizon is incredibly bad. The landscapes are fine, and the Mecha animals are fine, but the humans and their various cultural styles are horrendous.

That will actually be the third massive DEI failure that Sony blows hundreds of millions on. Fairgame$ (the DEI version of Payday coming from the studio that Sony set Jade Raymond up with and then bought out almost immediately) is right on track to be the next Concord.

How many failures like this is it going to take before Sony Japan finally lays off the entire Soy Francisco office and takes back control of SIE? It's just fucking pathetic at this point. They have destroyed every single one of their exclusive IPs to appease people who are a tiny, insignificant, and worthless minority. In the past I'd have been right there the moment the preorders go up to buy a PS5 Pro (and still would if it was MS dropping a Series XXX or whatever), but now? Fuck no. My PS5 is a dust collector that I've used maybe 2 or 3 times this year, so all I've got for Sony is a "thanks for saving me the $875 I guess."

The one right thing they’ve done recently is AstroBot, and they did it very, very well. They need to have all other teams emulate that one, which probably means a lot of layoffs.

I haven’t looked into who made AstroBot but was it a Japanese and White Male endeavor?

gaas - Games As a Service - games are live service, constantly updated multiplayer games that are usually f2p (but not always) but most importantly heavily emphasize paying constantly for battle passes, skins, cosmetics, mounts, pets, gacha loot boxes, pay to win potions/xp/levels/etc, on and on.

Its the most profitable area of gaming and involves everything from Fortnite, Call of Duty, Roblox, Genshin Impact, Overwatch, Diablo 4, 99% of mobile games, etc.

The biggest issue is most people are extremely comfortable with the 1-3 GAAS games they currently play and getting them into a new one is EXTREMELY hard. Everyone is chasing the next billion dollar a year Genshin/Fortnite but almost all of them fail - xDefiant, Concord, Suicide Squad, Foamstars, on and on. Big studios are throwing tons of money at it at the expense of AAA single player games which have been slashed a lot.

Most years we get 5-10 amazing AAA single player games, this year we've gotten like... 3 or 4? so a lot of people are salty at Sony, Microsoft, Ubisoft, etc wasting money on this shit especially when they infest it with characters who are all "put a black girl in it and make it gay"

They gave me the original Horizon free and that is all i have invested in that franchise. I don't think modders even bothered with the 2nd game on Steam.

I could never be bothered to get into the Horizon games. The latest one seems like it has simply been a tech demo graphics showcase for the PS5 more than anything in a sense, where the visuals are what everyone seems to praise the most about it. Honestly I think we have well surpassed the point where I give a shit about how fancy the graphics are in a video game. Advancements have only been getting harder and harder to detect, and the average AAA game generally has great visuals and it's been that way for at least the past generation. Heck I can even go back to 360 and PS3 games and still enjoy their visuals. Games really need something else going for them to get me to want to play them.

I have the second free with my ps5. I enjoyed the first but never felt compelled to do more than the story.
