| kupomogli said: I think it's pretty hypocritical of people who praise art style but then make comments about how graphics don't matter. One specific fanbase I speak of. Good graphics don't make the game, but if the game is going to be the same either way, I'd rather have better graphics. I prefer Super Mario All Stars over any of the original versions of the games for example. But, I prefer Final Fantasy on the NES over Final Fantasy Dawn of Souls. Different game mechanics for the remake of Final Fantasy is the reason I don't prefer it over the original. |
Your post fails, because art style and graphics are two distinct things. While better graphic opens up more options for art style, great art style can be achieved with shitty graphics. Look at all the images of retro games in the different sigs on this site. Monkey Island (the first one) had a great art style, while the graphics was eons away from todays standards - just as an example. Or Wind Waker HD keeps the art style of the original, while having better graphics. So the rest of the post after your initial words totally missing the point of the thread.
