UE5 is being shown off more and more, so you know what that means

I sure do love homogenizing everything into a desaturated, high exposure, high fidelity textures art style where nothing looks distinct or unique anymore.

Like, bruh, why does everyone want everything to be desaturated so much now, not everything looks good with that. Cartoony games like Fortnite look terrible when they have no saturation. No offense to whoever made this, but...IDK, I'm getting a little tired of the constant overrused aesthetic of removing as much vibrancy as possible from things.

Where did all the colors go. :046:

Hollow Bastion isn’t too hard to get through for the most part…now watch as I come back to complain about the boss fights if and/or when they kick my ass

So make all games dark and gritty like the 2000s, got it.

I remember Gears of War 1 having some of the best graphics for the time and then I go back and everything is just BROWN

Still a phenomenal game tho. Just play the remaster instead.

I remember thinking that Pikmin 2's environments had some of the most realistic graphics ever at the time.

It's been a few years since I've played the game, so I wonder how well they've held up.
Pikmin 2 was tied with both Metroid Prime games for prettiest GCN game for me.

Sunshine is also fantastic with its aesthetic.

...

Actually, most Nintendo art styles were popping off back then.

So... I noticed that Nintendo Of America's Indie World presentation and Nintendo of Japan's Indie World presentation have different content? I made a brief thread discussing the differences I spotted, if anyone wants to give it a look.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

The Indie World presentation just finished. Nothing really stood out to me or even made me think "huh - I might pick this up", going by the gameplay that was shown. (a game called One Shot looked similar to Undertale, but barely any gameplay was shown, so I don't have much to go on) Totally Accurate Battle Simulator is coming to Switch, but I'm not sure how fun that would be to play. Maybe that's a sign that I need to branch out into other genres, but my backlog's big enough as it is.
OneShot has actually been out since 2016, so there's plenty of footage online if ya wanna check it out! 2014, if we're counting the first version of the game (That released before Undertale, actually.) It's a super fun indie game, I definitely recommend giving it a shot. The Japanese Indie World presentation shows a much better look at the port, haha.

Ahem

As this thread's funny pancake cat stan



It actually isn't really like Undertale at all, its narratively very different and mechanically is entirely a puzzle game with zero combat. It's a meta, narrative driven puzzle game that is very immersive and personal with its story. I features mechanics that interact with you personally and adress you, the player, and even has puzzles that interact with your PC's files and desktop, requiring you to play the game outside of the game.

Honestly, don't wanna say more than that, as the game is best experienced completely blind. If you ever do decide to pick it up, it's about 8 hours for a full playthrough. View attachment 352187

Guh-Huzzah! Guh-Huzzah! I'll go ahead and post it for us

Let's be real, we weren't expecting it. :troll:

I can see why people were mixed on this film. Many characters felt like afterthoughts, the violence was really pushing the PG-13 rating, and they turned Wanda into a villian. Despite all of that and the rapid pacing, I enjoyed the movie. It fulfilled the promise the first film failed to uphold, that being more focused on horror. Strange puppeting another alternate Strange's corpse is something straight out of the Evil Dead trilogy.

I think I can finish Kingdom Hearts by the end of today or sometime tomorrow depending on how hard this final section of the game is

Oh ****, we're gonna get gamplay
This whole time their marketing strategy is baffling from being dead on news to providing a beta to people with insanely strict NDA.

This better be worth the wait and nonsense.
