| Millennium said: Rather than asking why some styles are timeless, it is more useful to ask why some styles age. Usually styles age when they attempt to push the console's limitations to the point where all they can do is approximate what you're looking for. The problem with approximations is that you can always make better approximations, and if the style gets popular enough then this inevitably happens; usually it seems to take about six months. The best way to future-proof your graphics, then, is to use a style that can't be improved upon just by swapping in a few new algorithms. |
That is a very good point. That's why I don't like it when people say that Chrono Trigger should be remade with improved graphics. The game has a certain style and "improving" it would just ruin what the game had going for it.
