But a photo realistic game can also be creative. Stylised designs moves away from realism since they are not intended to look realistic. |
We simply define what creativity means in gaming differently, then. Creation is when something is made that has never existed before. Look at the new Battlefield 4 trailer. Every bit of the visual design is based on something that already exists. It's copying the real world, a simulation. It's not creative to me because it's not showing us anything new. Then compare that with another shooter in Gears of War. High levels of detail in a visual design that's based on things that are new to this world. That's my perspective when it comes to this subject. I hope I've been able to explain things well enough.
